helped to stave off defeat last Sat

when on defense.
Hamilton and Rush are two good
line plungers; and 1t Is hard to
Judge between them, although
Hamilton has been placed in the
lipe-up because he is so hard to
d1wn and Is deadly tackler.
Pryor cannot be kept off the
team. He Is an exceptional Kicker,
as well fas a dandy open.field rum
ner. Besides, he is a hard and sure
taclsler. Hartlieb Is also fast
man, and Is on a par with Pryor
for open-field running. He will be

Some very unique features are
offered In the program at the Blue
Ridge for the last halt Of the weel:,
among which the most outstanding
is the appearance Of a young lady
sailing above the heads Of the
audience on what looked to be a
half moon and singing pretty
songs the while. u
The act by McEinn and tSully
known as sChair Up" requires
.stealy nerves on their part, as
we'll as the audience, for It Is the
sort that would be fatal should
they make a misstep.
Jones and Ray have one OF he
cleyerest comedy acts seen In.
some time, and they intersperse
their conversation. with popular
songs. !;
Charles Heating, with the aid
OF a young lady, presents in two
acts novel sketch in which he
tntrduces scenes from Huckleber-

he displays fine drama:lc ability as
well as marked talent as a singer.

A MIsCoNsTRUED STATEMENT

Governor d. w Davis was in Spo-
kane last week and made some puDlc
talks in which he criticised farmers
and others for flying the economy
track The governors talks We're
timely and straight to the point, but
when he said that farmers ditched
their little old Fords and bought high
priced cars it seems that he was mis-
taken. At least one Palouser takes
exception to the statement and IN
communication to Spokane daily
saws that. farmers are no cheap
skates" and are entitled to the real
thing in gas wagons same as bankers,
railroad employees, landlords and
others more or less fortunate How
ever, the governor meant no harm
1t was the way he said 1T. The far
mer resents being told anything in
connection with his business affairs
but when an oily-tongued political
tramp comes around boosting for
new party organization to save the
farmer from ruin he fails for the
bunk" and comes through with
liberal donation to boost the good
cause. All farmers are not guilty,
but a whole lot are hooked, and for
positive proof of this statement you
are referred to the boosted member
ship of the TownIey league in every
state where the scourge broke out.
We always find it safer to qualify our
statements in going Into matters of
this nature so that it will not be nee
essary for us to explain afterwards
