PLAY DECIDING
GAME HERE
COTTONWOOD LOST A ONE
SIDED GAME SUNDAY
TO GRANGEVILLE.

Grangeville "a, Cottonwood 3.
o! such a ball game as it was
Sunday and the 1000 baseball
fans present were surely dissap-
pointed at the outcome of the
game, at least from a scoring
standpoint, for them we feel
sorry as for ourselves it gives us
a headache to thing about it let
alone writing about it and plac-
ing it in print for future baseball
history.
For Cottonwood after the first
inning it was one continual
round of errors, for Grangeville
it was a perfect game of base
ball from start to finish.
Cottonwood has no excuses to
offer and attributes the two
dozen scores TO the fact that the
entire nine men comprising the
local team went up in an aero
plane in the second inning and
did not come down and as far as
we know are still in the air.
Sundays contest was witness
ed by one of the largest crowds
that has ever gathered on a
diamond in Cottonwood 1t is
estimated that fully 1000 people
witnessed the game, coming
from practically every part of
the county. Over IT'S cars were
counted on the ball grounds in
the 9th inning after one of the
local baseball fans lost interest in
the game and wanted to know
how many cars were present.
Cottonwood Wins.
The outcome of the game Sun
day made it a tie between Cot
tonwood and Grangeville in the
Idaho County Nationa League,
each having won A games and
lost 2. The deciding game will
be played Sunday and to deter
mine the place where the game
was to be played, Grangeville or
Cottonwood, silver dollar was
flipped, Cottonwood calling for
heads and winning with heads
up. Heads Up" that our motto
for Sunday and with it hope to
win the deciding game.
WinOna Wins Again.
Winona defeated Sites on the
Winona grounds, Sunday, before
a record breaking crowd and in
one of the most exciting games
of the season in the Idaho Coun-
ty American League. The final
score was 5 to 6. Winona closed
the season with having lost no
game.
Greencreek Wins Two.

WOULD STOP WORK.

j. b. Luchtefeld, of Reuter-
vile, has filed suit in district
court, seeking to restrain Idaho
county and w. F. Abercrombie,
foreman of the Grave creek road,
from constructing the highway
through land belonging to Luch-
tefeld. In his complaint, Luch-
tefeld, through his attorneys,
Fogg & Campbell, alleges the
highway construction crew un-
lawfully entered his premises on
June 10 and proceeded to build a
road. He claims the land is
within the Keuterville Highway
district, and the county has no
jurisdiction therein in highway
matters. Hearing on an order
to show cause why an injunction
should not be granted was held
before Judge Scales yesterday
and he ruled that the land in con-
troversy over which the road is
being built, was a public high
way owing to the fact that it has
been used as such for many
years and gave the defendants
authority TO proceed with the
road work.
Some 25 business men from
Cottonwood were present at the
hearing in Grangeville yesterday

c. N. co. ASKS
FOR RECEIVER
LOCAL MILL TAKEN INTO
COURTS HANDS-TRUST
BOND 100000

III tne district court at
Grangeville Friday application
was made to District Judge Wal
lace N. Scales by Attorney Fred
+. Butler of Lewiston for the ap-
pointment of a receiver for the
Cottonwood Milling & Elevator
company of Cottonwood
Judge Scales heard the apple
alton and issued the order for
the receivership, naming B. A.
Baerlocher of Cottonwood to
serve, and the entire plant and
property is now under his juris-
diction to be operated under the
direction of the court.
The receivership came about
through foreclosure of a trust
deed for 100000 given to secure
a bond issue by the company of
100000 and is in favor of the
IDAHO II ust mpany Cf Lewis
ton.
The production of flour and
other materials will cease with
the receivership for the time be-
ing at least, in fact, the mill has
not been operated in these de-
partments for some time. Mr..
Baerlocher will continue to buy,
sell and conduct such other bus
mess in connection with the
plant as the occasion demands.
The complaint in the case re-
cites that prior to February Ia,
1921, the defendant company by
a vote of a majority of its stock
holders authorized, executed,
sold and delivered bonds in the
sum of 100000, bearing date of
February Ia, 1921, bearing 8 per
cent. These bonds matured
serially at the rate of $4,000 an
nually, beginning with January
|, 1928, with interest payable
July l, of each year from the
date of issuance. The bonds
were in denominations of 81, 900
each. For the purpose of Sc
curing payment of these bonds
the defendant company executed
a mortgage or trust deed dated
February ID, 1921, in favor of
the trust company, in which was
conveyed all the real and person.
al property of the company, con-
sisting of three lots in Cotton
wood part of a right-of-way of
the Northern Pacific Railway
company, building structures
and improvements and equipt-
ment, this being declared a first
and prior lien upon all the prop
erty named.
Attorney Butler asked the
court for a receiver for the COM
pany owing TO its failure to pay
the interest due on the bonds,
and requested that the person
named to assume charge of the
property be given full power and
be authorized to demand and col
lect and sue for, if necessary, all
monies due, and to discharge all
other rights and powers as re-
ceiver under the direction of the
court.
The mill and elevator of the
company is among the most
in the northwest. Many
expensive improvements were
made in the property four or
five years ago, at which-time the
concern was transacting a large
business. The capacity of the
plant is placed at slightly more
than 100 barrels a day.
