FEW COPPER BOILERS
DUE 70 coNFlscATIoN

MARTINS FERRY OHIO, sept u.
Copper washboilers are becoming
scarce. Time was when they we're
seized regularly by police prohibition
raiders. Officers said that, in view
of frequent raids, operators of stills.
evidently, have found II less expef1-
sive to use cheaper boilers. They
said they are unable to meet the re-
quests Of friends for confiscatsd
copper boilers.

starred the agitation for a special
session of the legislature.
Then, when the order for martial
law was issued, the State was in a
political turmoil. And friends who
had supported his war on the khan
denounced him for himself doing
what they called illegal acts.
. E. K. Bixby, editor Of the Mus
kogee Phoenix, which, the COVER
nor. declared in his Henryetta
speech "smelled like a skunk" de-
clAres that this paper has always
opposed the khan and will support
the governor for visible govern
nent and against masked marau-
ders, but opposes training machine
guns on grand jury room and
opposes his sOcialisttc policies"
THE people of Oklahoma are
decent and law abiding, and want
neither government by khan or
King, but by law. But they are
paying the price of too much apathy
whlIe a masked SUPERB overnment
grew up, and politicians were
groveling before the khan for
votes, said G. b. Parker, editor
or the Oklahoma News.

POCATELLO INDIANS 1S;
BLACKFOOT q

The Pocatello Indians defeated
Blackfoot Sunday afternoon in the op-
ening game of the season by the score
of 13 to- s. Mayor Peck pitched the
first ball, and thereby officially open
ed the 1923 season.
Pocatello had no trouble in taking
the opener, and were never In any
danger except in the fifth and sixth
innings when the score was tied.
Erickson was easily the star Of the
game, and his strong right arm was
responsible for nineteen strike outs,
in fact every man on the Blackfoot
team was a victim except Farquar.
Allen pitching for Blackfoot was
relieved in the seventh by Gerdes and
he in turn was relieved by Simmons,
none of whom could hold the heavy
slugging of the Indians.
Berg stared for Blackfoot with two
home runs.
Blackfoot's eight errors were costly.
and were responsible for several OF
Pocatello's runs.
Next Sunday Blackfoot will meet
the Pocatello Bears on the Rlackfoot
diamond and an almost entirely new
lineup will be found on the Blackfoot
team.
Howard, Blackfoot's star pitcher, is
slated for the mound and the story
will be different.
