Dope Indicates
Possible Upsets
Political Situation Points to Over

ventions Convene Today.

All eyes are turned to Idaho Falls
and Pocatello today where the Demo-
cratic and Republican state conven-
tions are being held.
Because of the campaigns made
by Republican aspirants for the SEN
atorship and governorship nomina-
tions, and the comparative breath OF
preconvention campaigns by Demo
Gratis, more interest is being shown
in the Republican contests than in
the Democratic.
On paper and before the conven-
ton, every indication points to the
nomination of Frank Gooding for the
United States senate and D. w. Davis
to succeed himself as governor of the
state. But political dopsters who have

Senators Finally
Win Ball Battle
Boise Cops Baseball Game From,
Caldwell Sunday on Home Lot
by to l Score.

Combination of real baseball put
up by Boise Sunday and the fact that
Caldwells vaunted baseball aggrega-
ton failed to live up to its reputa-
ton combined to spell defeat for the
locals at Boise Sunday afternoon by
score of 81. 1t was the first game
Caldwell has dropped after trimming
the Capital City aggregation five
consecutive times.
Boise had the best combination in
the field that has represented the
Senators this season. Jack Ashen-
felter occupied the box for the pen
nant grabbers and although he was
far from puzzle for Caldwell stick
smiths, lot of fast fielding and good
fortune helped keep the score down.
For four innings, it looked like a real
ball game. Pensen was going nicely
until that frame although he didn't
have the stuff he usually displays
In the fifth inning, Boise filled the
bases and Pensen, after striking out
one man and getting two strikes on
the next, slipped one in the groove
Berg went 70 the rescue but before
he got settled down, walked one mar
and the next batter got another hit
netting three more runs.
Boise had all kinds of baseball
luck. Hard fielding chances were
gathered in without apparent effort
no less than three double plays be-
ing credited to that aggregation dur
ing the matinee. In several innings
Caldwell had men on bases but were
unable to count because of fast field
ing behind Ashenfelter. Poor base
running accounted somewhat for tn,
inability of the Caldwell team to make
their nine hits net more than ont
while Boise was amassing six count
ers on but one more bingle.

EXPECTFRE|GHT
RATES To BUMP
POTATO PRICES
Local Government Man
Expects to See Sharp
Decline in Quotations;
Crop Moves Slowly.

Homer Harris. representing the
federal bureau of markets with his
headquarters at Caldwell. expressed
the belief Monday morning that be-
cause of the present market condi-
tions in the middle west, Idaho po-
tato growers would have to absorb
the freight differential increase made
effective this week through the freight
increases. At present, freight charges
to Chicago on potatoes are approxi-
mately rs cents per 100 pounds, Is
per cent increase in freight rates maxi
ing net reduction of about 20 per
cent per 100 pounds Of potatoes to
producers when the new rate goes
into effect.
Mr.. Harris based his opinion o.
the present unsteady potato market
conditions and the fact that eastern
markets are evidently gluttted with
potatoes at the present time. Under
different conditions, with = steady de-
mand and an upward trend of prices.
this result would be different, in the
opinion of Mr.. Harris, the grower
being obligated to absorb at least only
a portion of this increased rate.
Whether the probably result will con-
tinue during the entire season, de-
pands primarily on market conditions
in the opinion of Mr. Harris.
Potatoes are not moving out rapid
ly. Monday morning only two cars
were sent out over the Mcneil line
into the Huston territory. Seven had
been ordered by the Caldwell Trac-
ton company on the basis of rail-
road officials assertions last weekend
that plenty of cars would be avail
able this week.
Local contractors Monday morn
ing sold several cars of potatoes on
track here at $l.7S. preferring to take

ping them. Monday morning reports
