V.C, ENDS SEASON
WITH A VICTORY

Valley City celebrated the ending Of
the local baseball season for this year
yesterday afternoon, by leading the
Elbow Lake, Mimi, aggregation to
defeat by the score Of z to 0. The
Minnesota boys are strong bunch,
but errors in fielding was in great
measure too blame for the score run
up by the Valley City boys. They
seemed to have brought their batting
eye along with them, and hit Adams,
the Valley City pitcher, in pretty reg
ular succession, but the infield and
outfield were invincible, and the good
slugging did not avail them very
Hardy, who has been playing with
the Little Falls, Mimi, team this sea-
son, was on the mound for Elbow
Lake and displayed good form
throughout the entire game, and with
little better support from the rest
Of his comrades, would have perhaps
held the score down to much small
er number. Both teams used the will
low in Babe" Ruth style although no
home runs came forth as result Of
it.

.HANKINSON.V.C
RESULTS in A TIE

"a real game" was the opinion ex-
pressed by those who saw the ball
game Wednesday between Hankin-
son and Valley City here on the home
diamond: Both teams played air tight
baseball, although errors were respon-
sible for some of the scores which
were obtained by both sides.
The game resulted in 3 to 3 tie at
the end of the ninth inning, and the
game was called at that time because
of darkness. Hankinson tied the score
in the first half of the ninth, when a
low swift drive by the Hankinson
pitcher brought in Hankinson man,
and if it had not been for good peg
from center, another man would have
scored right behind the first. He was
caught out at home plate by Kaplan.
Valley City had last bats but were un-
able to get around the circuit, the men
going out in pretty regular succession.
Valley City was the first to score,
when in the second inning, long
drive to left field turned into a homer
for Conroy, the only one obtained in
yesterdays game. Another Valley
City man got around in the same in
ming, making the score 2 to 0, at
which it looked as though the game
would end at. However, Hankinson
succeeded in tieing it, and then the
game got interesting. Valley City
was the first to break the tie again,
when a good pelt by Wingfield brought
in man, but Hankinson came back
and tied it again.
Adams pitching for the locals, was
opposed by Stadolla, the Cpgswell
wonder, who was on the mound for
Hankinson. Both twirlers had every
thing on the ball that pitcher needs,
which, coupled with a little gray mat
ter, pulled both hurlers out of some

with them and II hits were made off

twirler. .,.# u, III a.,.

THE TOWN AND
THE COUNTRY

Extracts from the annual address of
the president of the North Dakota
Bankers Associations:
can evil which we should de every
thing in our power to remove" said
J. j. Farley of Valley City, president
of the association, in his address at
the opening of the convention, SIS
the unfortunate friction between the
country and the town which has been
fomented and fostered by political
demagogues to serve partisan ends.
There is, in fact, no better friend
of the farmer than his banker, and on
the other hand the banks of this
state are supported chiefly by the
farmers and the industry Of agricur
ture. The interests of the town and
country are not merely mutual, they
are identical, and the town contri-
butes as much to the country as the
country does to the town. A live, en-
terprising town like Valley City adds
from $25 to $50 value to every acre
within it's marketing radius, and a
larger town, like Fargo, adds more"
In speaking Of farm mortgage
statistics, he said that they demolish
another familiar argument of the
political demagogue, in that heavy
farm mortgage Indebtedness does not
indicate poverty or hard times, but
proves conclusively exactly the OPP
>posite. The four states of Iowa, Il
linois, Wisconsin and Missouri, ag-
gregating only eight per cent of the
area of continental United States, but
carrying more than 36 per cent Of the
total farm mortgage Indebtedness Of
the country, are the most prosperous
agricultural states in the union,
where values are highest, farm i'm
provements best, acre yield the
greatest, and credit the easiest and
the. cheapest."-Fargo Forum.

VICTORY MEETING
AT SPlRlTW0OD

The victory meeting held at Spirit
wood Lake last Saturday was attend
ed by $500 people from all sections of
the state, among the number being
many of the leaders Of the anti Town
ley organization. The funeral of the
smelling committee law and others
killed by the votes Of the people on
June 80 was attended more in a spirit
of merriment than that of any deep
seated sorrow that generally charact-
erizes funeral. It was more Of a
wake. There were some fine speeches
given along political lines. Torger
Sinness, chairman of, the republican
campaign, presided and introduced the
speakers. Senator A. j. Gronna~ was
the first at bat and he gave real in
spring patriotic address, stating that
far from being defeated he was going
to continue the fight until Townleyisnl
and red socialism was driven from the
state. Judge Palda, of Minot, put
some pep into the bunch by his vigor-
Gus address in which he worked up his
audience to wonderful degree of en-
thusiasm by his playing up the victory
of June 80. j. F. T. O'Connor gave
one of his polished and scholarly ad-
dresses along the lines of good gov
ernment that made hit as all of his
talks do. Mr.. O'Connor is winning
support all along the line. Miss Min
ME J. Nelson received splendid
ovation as she was introduced for a
talk and asked the voters of the state
to stand by the anti-Townley people
in trying to give the peoples sqsaae
deal in the schools of the state. She
told of how the power had been taken
from her since the present bunch had
gained control and that. now she was
not even allowed to sign the certifi-
Gates for the teachers. Tom Hall,
secretary of state, w. H. Stutsman,
nominated for railroad commissioner
and Steen Nelson, the old time pio-
neer farmer gave the audience talk
and awoke much enthusiasm. 1t was
great meeting, full of optimism and
confidence that in November real
governor would be elected. Mr.. Nell
son. introduced a resolution asking
Senator A. j. Gronna to become a
candidate. for the senate to SUCCEED
himself as an independent candidate.
The resolution was adopted by a prac-
tically unanimous standing vote. This
ended the program. The jamestown
College band furnished excellent mu-
sic during the day. The meeting was
a get together affair and seemed to
have served its purpose very we'll.
