o. A. G. Defeats Idaho

Pendleton, Or, Oct. 90 - Superior
weight and better teamwork gave the
Oregon Aggies football team the big
end of 26 to 6 score in their game
here Saturday with the University of
Idaho
Idaho s only score came in the last
few minutes of play after tumble
Ehad been recovered on the Aggies 80
Eyard line, A forward pass. Brashear to
Roberts, negotiated the remainder of
sthe distance on the first play. Thomp-
hson missed goal.
While Idaho uncovered a number of
deceivin0 tricks during the first and
last quarters, the superior poundage of
the Corvallis line was too great for
consistent gains and only in those two
quarters did the northerners appear
dangerous.
The Aggies, on the other hand, plac-
ed most of their dependence on old
Estyle football and, while they are not
fable to tear the Idaho line apart except
in isolated instances, they found 4
possible to gain readily by the simple
|expedient of massing their entire
weight behind the charge.

New Class A Baseball
League Is In Prospect

Portland, Or. Oct. 22.-If Portland is
kicked out of the Coast league, the fast
est class A organization in the coun-
try will be formed in the Pacific north
west.
That today was the statement of
Judge W., w. MeCredie, Portland base
ball magnate, to the United Press.
The new league will include Port
land, Seattle, Tacoma, Spokane, Van
couver (B. C.) Butte and probably Great
Falls and Victoria or Bellingham. Trans

league-would cut a small figure in the

Last Week of Rall

San Francisco, Oct. 22.--The Coast
league clubs turned into the last lap
of the 1917 pennant race today, with
San Francisco leading Los Angeles for
the flag by the narrow margin of one
game. By winning both games Sunday,
while San Francisco was winning only
one and tying another, the Angels gain
ed half a game on the Seals. Both clubs
are going strong. r
In the final series, to be played this
week, San Francisco will meet Oakland
which made a clean sweep of the Port
land series last week, while Los Ange-
les will be meeting the apparently
weakening Portlanders.

Oregon is Defeated

Washington State College, Pullman,
Wash, Oct. %. = Showing the team
work which characterized their play
ing in 1915, the state college football
team defeated the inexperienced Uni
versity of Oregon eleven here Satur-
day by the score of 26 to 3.
At no time was the Washington
state college goal in danger, most of
the play being in the lemon and yell
low territory. At all times the Oregon
line was helpless before the onslaughts
of Dangs, Doane, Glover and Hanley,
they piling up a total of 400 yards
from serimmage to Oregon's s loss of
five yards
The most exciting part of the play
was a 72 yard return of punt by
Bangs for touchdown in the third
quarter. Bangs kept close to an i'm
penetrable interference the entire dis
tance, every man of Washington state
college getting his man in the mad race
for the goal line.

certalned, that claim in this district has been drilled in connection with a lawsuit to demonstrate it's intrinsic value. According to the depositions obtained from the drillers and others who are in position to appraise the property, the ground m contention, while containing gold values is hard ly what may be called a paying prop osition. Some gold was found as a result of the drilling operations order- ed by Mir. Mundy but only in limit ed area and it is considered doubtful if wages could be realized through op- eration.
 The evidence recently collected in connection with the case occupies something like two hundred pages of legal cap, all of which will be for warded to the court of claims, at Washington, D. c.
 The government is said to have ex- pended about s1.400 in drilling the claims to demonstrate their possible value--a sum generally considered by mining men as far in excess of the value of the ground as a mining prop osition.

Assistant District Attorney Mundy yesterday finished taking dispositions in the case of the North American Transportation and Trading Company vs. the United States of America, which has been hanging fire in the federal courts since 1906. The case involves an effort on the part of the plaintiff company to obtain the sum of $100,000 from the government as compensation for the ground now occupied by the Fort Davis military reservation, which was staked as min ing ground before the establishment of the military post, but was taken over by the government when troops were sent to Nome. The N. A. T. & T Co. instituted suit Tn the federal court of claims for the value of the claim and also asks the government to al- low the sum of s7,5O0 per year for each year of occupancy since the fort was established
 In order to refute the contention of the plaintiff, that the ground is worth s100000, the government, through assistant district Attorney Mundy has had the ground drilled to determine the gold values.
 The drilling was done in recent days by Henry Walker, Nick Butler being employed to do the banning. In passing 1t may be said that this is the first time, so far as can be as-

Writing to the Nugget under a Fairbanks date line. a party signing himself Harold Johnson and who claims to have been an employe of the Jumbo mine at Kenneicott Alaska, at the time of the recent copper strike, concerning which meager reports were received in Nome, says that the re- ports published in Alaska papers to the effect that the striking miners at Kennicott returned to work pending government arbitration, are not en- tirely correct. Johnson says that the company officials broke off negotla- tions with the strikers July and brought in the first carload of strike breakers July s.
 Fifty eight of the millmen refused to work with the imported laborers and later on, according to Johnson, all but four of the stril<ebreakers followed suit, claiming that they hal been iibniIipi iiCu to tht liituit Ol thCit work. Later efforts to break the strike met With better success. In the course of the following three weeks the company imported 150 Greek railroad workers from Anchor salmon fishermen and others from the coast towns. These, with the fifty rcen who still remained at work in tbe mills and a dt1' or SO mill men who returned to work brought the crew up to 90 per cent of the nor mai working force numerically.
 Through the efforts of the govern nent conciliator, Charles T. Connell, negotiations were reopened July 31. he company at this time presented a wage scale which Johnson says was even less favorable to the miners than the one offered July 2. The company also offered to take back thirty or
 orty mechanics and miners provided their past record was acceptable. John son states that as the strikers were at the end of their resources, the strike having lasted forty five days they voted to leave the valley.
 The strikers had demanded a fixed wage of $3 and s35O and board until. copper reached IS cents, after which they were to be raised to $4 and $4.5O per day. According to Johnson, the company wage scale at present is the same as previously obtained-$2.50 to S3 and board, with a bonus of from 25 cents to $1.50 while the present abnormal prices of copper prevail. Johnson concludes his letter with the statement that the men struck for inn proved living and working conditions and a wage scale worthy of this cop per Klondike. The best offer of the company was a repetition of hackney ed promises and a wage scale equal to that of Butte and Bisbee, evidently offered in the belief that Alaskans should work for the same wages as obtained in the states.
