After wiping up Dermott to
the Queens taste on last Thurs
day, our boys went back on FRI
day to do the job over again, but
woe unto the proud in spirit,
the tables were turned on them,
and Dermott walked off with
the honors, 10 to 4, and it was
not good day for runs either.

Warren won another victory
over Wilmar Friday. The score
being 5 to 4.
From present indications it
looks like Dermott was going to
be the pennant winner; but it is
still possible for one of the
other teams to get the toga.
However it viii require much
better luck than they have been
meeting with of late.
Defeated again last Monday,
by Dermott, Monticello made
one step nearer the cellar. 1t
was a good game, and the Mon
ticello lads played ball for all
that was out, but the visitors
wereiust a little too stout for us.
The feature of the game were
home-runs by Shinault, of the

visitors.

IL MEMORY OF MRS.
j. II. HAMMOCK.

Once again has the death angel Wis
lted our midst, and taken one of our
best beloved and most useful mem
hers. And while we sorrow in our
great loss, We are made to rejoice in
the knowledge that she has only rest
81 from her labors here, and has gone
to receive a glorious reward in that
blessed home above, and that we shall
be with her, when we too shall pass
from this life, if we are faithful to the
end OF life, as she was.
Mrs. Hammock was friend to all,
loved and trusted by all who knew
her. She was a woman of piety,
learning, and culture, faithful, ear
nest, Jealous christian. Her life was
a constant benediction to those who
were associated with her in the work
OF the Master. Of her it may truly
be said, "she hath done what she
could" and her good works will live
on and on. She will be sadly missed
in the church and Sunday School work,
being so well instructed in Gods
Word, and having a rare gift of i'm
parting knowledge to others, she was
one at whose feet We could sit and

not know that the battleships had
come up during the action between
the opposing fotillas of destroyers
and cruisers. Admiral Beatty is x
onerated for his vancouver on the
grounds that it was the correct thing
to do. Beatty was sacrificed, but It
gave Admiral Jellicoe time to come

PUBLIC OPINION HAS
HIGH PRESSURE

Recently a state land register OF
Idaho vas removed from his place
without seeming justification. The
public were not convinced that there
was any reason at all, and that percu-
liar force, opinion, rose in opposition
to the act. Soon the land board met
and reconsidered their former action
in the matter. Things are as they
were.
A similar case has happened in the
east, but it is much more serious, for
it might have meant restriction upon
a great reform, one of the things the
present age will afterwards be known
for. That is. sensible prison reform.
pointed warden of Sing Sing prison.
To those who have followed events
in this connection this is a reassur-
ing piece Of news, because much has
gone before. Warden Osborne had
been in the prison business for a long
time and had arrived at belief in sew
eral better ways to handle prisoners.
These he was putting into practice
at Sing Sing, where he was boss,
when suddenly he was attacked thru
state legal channels with accusations
that would have shown him unsuited
for his position, if proved. He had
instituted reforms that outsiders
could not understand, so they went
him, as all good puritans do in
such a situation. But the press took
up Mr.. Osborne's support, and the
press is the mouthpiece of public
opinion. Commenting upon his re-
the Salt Lake Tribue
says, editorially:
Osborne, having been thru the
seven times heated furnace and
emerged triumphant, probably has
10 bitterness in his heart for his vile
accusers. Nevertheless, these men,
rom the highest to the lowest,
should not go unwhipped of justice"
At the time o fthe Spanish inquisi-
ion, and again later, among the puri-
an fathers, accusation without proof
a very dangerous weapon,
or public opinion was not balanced.
n regard to witchery the human race
as at time acted like a man with

.ay 1t almost got to be that way in
egard to politics. These two are
asses where defamation did not work.

FARGO FARM LOOKS GOOD
owner Makes Extensive Improve
ments-Builds More Than Two
Miles OF bitches

To put 800 acres of sage brusl
land in crops and under cultivation
in three short months is q Job of con.
siderable magnitude, but that is what
has been accomplished by C. G. Fargo
on the half section of land adjoining
the townsite Of Aberdeen on the east
during the present season. Begin.
ming this task about March 1, Mr..
Fargo has cleared, plowed and seeded
more than $50 acres of alfalfa and
red clover, barley, wheat and pasture
grass.
Most of the clearing and blowing
was done with an oil-pull engine and
a sufficient number of men and teams
were employed to rush the work from
the very start. More than two miles
of irrigation bitches have been con-
structed and everything is now in
readiness to begin the spreading of
water upon the growing crops. More
than 100 acres of alfalfa, part of
which is the common and part the
Grimm variety, was seeded with a
nurse crop of wheat. The grain is
now three to four inches high and the
stand of alfalfa is even and flourish
ing.
The larger portion of the farm will
be watered from lateral DIG, which
crosses n corner of the place. There
is, however, about % acres on the
west side of the half section that
must be irrigated from the townsite
lateral. This part is cut Off from the
rest of the tract by the "big draw"
running to Little Hole. This portion
of the farm has been seeded to pas
ture grasses and the farmhouse and
barns will be located thereon. Ex-
cavations in the hillside have already
been made for a mamoth shed barn
large enough to house 40 to SO head
of stock.
When Mr.. Fargo, purchased this big
farm about two years ago it was his
purpose to place the whole area on
the market in five and ten acre tracts.
Other and larger interests called him
away for a period and the land re-
NAMED in an unimproved condition
until this spring. Upon his return
to Aberdeen Mr.. Fargo decided to do
a little farming himself and now that
the whole place is under cultivation
and crop prospects for the present
season are SO good, he declares his
farm is not for sale.-The Aberdeen
Times
