SUMMARY OF
IDAHO WEATHER

The week was cool for the season
and light TO heavy frost occurred in
various localities OF the southern and
western counties. There was consid-
cradle cloudiness. with light scat
tered showers. but sunshine was ad-
equate in most sections. In Adams
county soil moisture was rapidly de-
pleted by cold, dry north winds.
Crops made fair progress although
the weather wRs not so favorable for
rapid growth as that which obtained
during the previous week. II was a
little too cool for most crops. but
wheat, barley, rye and oats seemed
to thrive and. are for the most part
In fine condition. Potatoes. sugar

crops-all are making fair 10 salts

OF the more tender garden veget-
localities. bat the damage was I'm the
most Instances slight.
Pastures and ranges Improved
during the week: some localities re-
port the summer range the best In
several years. With improved for
age conditions. livestock Is thriving
and making good gains.
Apples and prunes grew rapidly
Cherries ripened fast and the harvest
is now well started. The quality OF
the fruit is good. but the yield is not
as heavy as that OF last year
Alfalfa harvest is In full swing.
Most OF the crop has been cut. Aat
the hay Is maturing slowly and as a
consequence much IL still in the

STATE CHAMPIONSHIP IN
BASEBALL WON BY OLYMPIA
Shut-Out of BremertOn High School
Team Clinchcs Local Claim of
Superiority.

The Olympia High baseball team
shut out the Bremerton High team,
champions of the Northwest. last
Saturday by so score, thereby win
ming the state championship outside
the cities of Tacoma. Seattle and
Spokane.
Olympia played absolutely error
less ball. while two runs were gar
nered on Bremerton's errors. How
ever. had both teams played alright
BALL Olympia would have won by the
score of 10.
The score book read 1-2-3 till the
fourth. r. Lindsey succeeded in
reaching first. Norrie singled him to
second and Kotick doubled him
home. Bremerton was considerably
ratified and consequently Norrie
scored on an error. Bremerton re-
tired scoreless in her share of the
fifth. while Calvert for Olympia
singled on a line drive to left, stole
second by a magnificent slide. gar
nered third by clever piece of base
running and came home on an error.
The rest Of the game finished 1-2-3.
Reynolds pitched a wonderful
game, striking out II men and slip
ping over five third strikes. X. Lind
sey held him up wonderfully we'll
behind the bat, so well indeed that
only two Bremerton players succeed
ed in reaching second base. Ace
Lindsey played great ball on third,
fielding perfectly four difficult
chances and making four perfect pegs
to first. Ginder picked off five flies
in center without a hitch.
In all Olympia played her best in
this most important game and COM
pleted her 18th straight victory,
winning the Southwest and state
championship without a defeat. A
remarkable record.

had as opponents the old reliables
from St. Martins College, and every
inning of the nine held the close at
tention of all the fans. The game
went eight innings without score,
and then the local team cinched its
belt and slipped four men over the
rubber winning the game at 3-4.
Monday Tono sent over picked
team, many of them consisting OF
PROFESSIONALS. ex-profesionals and high
class semi-prOs. with the evident in
tent to humble the local boys. and
they did so. These teams played to
large crowd of sympathetic fans,
and the game itself was we'll worth
the price of admission. In only two
innings was a score made, or the
danger line closely approached by
either side. The second inning gave
the Tono team five scores. and this
was sufficient to bring them home
winners A wild throw in the second
gave the visitors few free bases
and before the local boys could re-
cover from their surprise. lead was
secured that could not be overcome.
Later on in the game one lone run
was scored by Olympia.
In spite of the fact that the local
boys took the short end Of the score,
the fans left the ground we'll salts
fed. because they had witnessed a
real lively game of baseball.

HEROES OF WAR
ENTIRE CITY GATHERS TO DO
LIVES IN BATTLES FOR THE
GREAT REPUBLIC.

Memorial day exercises passed off
Yesterday according to the outlined
progiam. Tho parade formed and
marched to PercivaIs dock, where
appropriate ceremonies we're obsert Cd
in memory of the departed sailors of
three wars.
When Decoration day was con
ceived in an order issued May 5.
1868, by General John A. Logan,
founder of the Grand Army OF TIE
Republic, its purpose was merely that
the graves of those who had fai.cn il
defense of the country might be dec
Grated on May 80 of every year.
Today it has a higher significance.
In addition to placing flowers AMI
flags on the last resting places Of
those who offered their lives or their
country, Decoration day has become
Memorial day - when appropriate
services in honor of the men who
offered their lives for their country
are held.
The exercises were in charge Of the
Wonan's Relief Corps and were
opened with the .nging o. Nearer
My God to Thee, after which Mrs.
M. Trulinger. chaplain, offered the
prayer. followed by the strewing Of
flowers on the water. Rev. Charles
T. Goodsell pronounced the benedic-
tion. after which the firing squad
discharged three volleys over the
water. and taps was sounded by the
buglers.
From the dock the parade pro-
ceeded to Capital Park where the
memorial services were continued.
Commander McNair of the G. A. r..
post was in charge, Commander Full

s18 MINIMUM WAGE
IS SUBJECT OF ATTACK
Writ of Review, Injunction and Re-
straining Order Asked by AttOr-
ney for Employers.

Arguments were made before
Judge Wilson in the local superior
court Thursday in the suit brought
by the State Hotelmen's Association
against the Industrial Welfare Com
mission in an effort to defeat the SIS
minimum wage for hotel employees
Maurice Langhorne of Tacoma repre-
sented the hotel men. while the com
mission was defended by the attor-
ney generals office.
The attorney general pointed out
in his argument that the allegations
of the employers in asking for the
writ of review and injunction were
not based on the SIS wage being ex-
cessive but on the procedure Of the
public hearings. He stated that this
made the matter one for legislative
discussion and not judicial ques-
tion.
The SIS award of the welfare COM
mission becomes effective tomorrow
unless the court sustains the claims
of the employers and orders a writ of
review.
Commission members feel that
since the hotel association withdrew
its application for a restraining order
or an injunction. there is no reason
why the commission should not con-
tinue with additional minimum wage
hearings. Date of the minimum wage
conference for laundry workers will
be set at the next meeting of the to-
morrow.
More than 4,40O factory workers
in the state will be affected by the
new minimum wage of SIS which re-
Gently was recommended to the COM
mission. Figures given at the con-
ferences show that the commission
secured reports from hundreds Of
working girls in the state placing the
cost of living for the working girl at
$22.09, while the certified accountant
employed by the manufacturers of
the state placed the cost of living at
$13.75 a week.

REPUBLICANS IN CONGRESS- CAN
NOT MUSTER VOTES TO PASS

An effort to override President Will

Two republicans. Representatives
Kelley of Michigan and Fuller of Mas.

dents veto, while II democrats join
ed the republican majority in an
effort to override it,
There was less than an hours de.
bate on the motion to override the
vote. Chairman Porter of the foreign
affairs committee opened discussion
with the declaration that nowhere II
his veto message had the president
questioned the constitutionality OF
the resolution.
Representative Connally, democrat,
Texas, challenged the republicans to
put in straight-out resolution for
repeal of war time legislation and
promised democratic support to re-
pass it over a probable veto.
Representative Mondell of Wyom-
ing, the republican leader, declared
that the resolution if adopted would
establish peace and fix the date for
repeal of wartime laws.
