The Contest Closes

The subscription cam paign which
has been going on for something like
month past came to close at four
O'Clock yesterday afternoon. Every
body likes contest whether it be on
the baseball diamond. the race course,
in politics, or elsewhere. An intense
interest was shown in the one just
concluded. The competition was
keen between the candidates and each
had numerous friends each of whom
worked earnestly in behalf of his fa-
vorite. OF course both candidates
and friends alike, from the very start,
knew that only one could win the
principal prize and that there must
be some who would win nothing at
all. 1t vas a case where the pos
Bibility, however, WAS worth an ef-
fort and il was certainly made.
1t would have been gratifying If
everyone who put forth earnest effort
could have received an automobile;
also in the political field it would be
delightful if candidates for Office
could always succeed. but in sub
scription campaigns, public life and
business enterprise. the contrary
seems to be the case. This same
week there has been disappointment
and chagrin coming inevitably TO
those who have cherished hopes of
political success during the winter
and spring and in this state of mind
many friends, of course. shared.
The candidates for the automobile
were certainly possessed of sporting
blood They labored early and late
but In all their calls to this office,
which of course were frequent. there
was joke and smile and no
thoughts of crouch or resentment,

whom we like to deal. There is no

COUNTY
BASEBALL TEAMS
Thirty Games Played
at Fairview Park

Somerset County is to have baseball
of kind never before seen in this
part of the Kennebec Valley, and for
that matter, rarely seen anywhere.
Through the courageous enterprise of
Smith and st. Ledger, league has
been formed and fund put UP in
curing the kind of game that will
stir Somerset County's baseball world
from center to circumference. There
are to be thirty games all played in
Skowhegan. To Fairview Park will
ccme teams from Stratton, New Port
land, Bingham and Madison. There
they will conquer or succumb to the
best aggregation Skowhegan can pick
out. The prize money aggregates
twenty-five hundred dollars, divided
into four purses. The penant-win-
ming team will get one thousand dol
lars as first money
Other things being equal, by far
the greatest number of people pre-
fer amateur to professional athletics.
The prize winnings in these games
are enough to stimulate each team to
put in it's very best material and
keep them at it. In these games
we shall know personally all the
home boys and very many of the Wis
itors. Interest is tremendously aug
mented where we are watching John
or Joe out on the diamond. know him.
and know his parents. Members of
the outside teams whom we do not
know at the start will quickly work
into our acquaintance and we shall
find that they are from families whom
we nave known for many years. 1t
is these considerations that will give
an interest to this baseball which VIC
have never quite equalled before.
First game, Saturday, 3 o'clock.

league standing expressed in percent
