The Linton Reds last Thursday won their third frame of the season and the tirst away from home. They played the fast Hazel ton aggregation and were victorious by a score of 9 to 1. The Hazel ton boys had an off day and put up a ragged exhibition of the na tional Kame but they will play a re turn game Itere this afternoon at 4 o'clock, and they have promised to even things up. While the boys of our sister town were doing such poor work, the Reds were In prime condi tion: the two errors made being of lit tle importance in the result. Hazelton had previously played four games, winning all of them, and was consequently confident of the result of this one. It was doubtful in the morn ing whether the game would be played, as frequent showers made it appear as if the contest must lie postponed. However, after dinner the weather was fair, and the game was started. In the first inning Linton followed its usual tiictics of making sure of the game at the start. The Ltntons se cured three scores by a combination of errors mi I,lie part of the home team and lung hits by the Reds. In the last half ila/.eltou succeeded in squeezing in one score on a close decision. This was their only ruu. For four innings the result was unchanged. However, in the last five inniugs the numerous hits or the visiting team raised the score to a final sum of nine. Tiie Reds kept up their reputation as sluggers, making a total of fifteen hit*, of which tive were good for two bases and one a three-bagger. Flanagan again did the champion slicking, drawing three safe ones in four times up. Toward the close or the game the rain began to fall until, in the last half of the ninth inning, it was pouring. But the entire nine innings were played. Following is a summary of the game: IIA 7.11.TON-1.1 NTON. II AZei.TOK I'. Burke, rf Batmr, Wernll. 2b I'lowiuan, ss A. tturke.

Flanagan struck out six and Burke four in the game. Mr. King, of Braddoek, did a good job of catching for the Reds. The Reds have allowed but two scores in their last two games. Koll, of the Reds, barely missed making a home run, being tagged at the home plate. The game scheduled with Pollock last Sunday was postponed a week on account of wet grounds. Glen Turner and Clayton Carmieh eal, the Linton mascots, won many favorable comments upon heir neat uniforms. The Law Regulatlag Autos. The speeding of automobiles —or, perhaps, it were better to say an auto mobile—through the streets of Linton, at a dangerous and illegal rate or speed is something that we believe will soon couie to an end. Pedestrians and team-owners have a few rights to the streets. The law is plain and clear regnrling the matter. If anybody wants to run his auto at a high rale of speed, let him gooutsideor the village limits, where the danger of running into oi over somebody is reduced to a minimum. Everybody is pleased to see the automobiles on the streets in the ('veiling. There is nothing that gives a village a more progressive and •'citified" air. There are men owning automobiles in this town who, for a two-Mil reason, take a moderate speed through the streets. They not only do not wish to endanger life, but they know hat such excessive speed going up hill ami down dale will soon send an auto to he scrap-heap. Tuesday even iug one autoiiiohlile-owiier claimed that I ie cauie do* lie hill and through the principal street or Linton at the rate of titty-live miles an hour. At that nine ilie sidewalks were full of peopl', with persons frequently cross ing from side to side, and there were a COUNTY LINTON, NORTH DAKOTA, THURSDAY, .IUNE 13. 1907. number of buggies on the streets* Suppose that the steeriug-gear had gone wrong, or tin driver had "lost bis head" for a second or two. Abou* half the auto accidents we read about are caused by this s*.me failure of the steering-gear. If some auto-driver should kill or badly injure somebody in the streets of Linton by his fast going, he would, even if he should escape punishment, pass a life-time of regret that Ills carelessness had been the cause of the disaster. Why not discontinue it? Following is the law governing the running of automobiles: Section 2,109.

Emmons County Graduates. in its write-up of the graduates of the Bismarck high-school --sixteen girls and six boys the Bismarck Pal ladium has the following regarding two Emmons county young ladies, both of whom were burn and brought up in this county: "Josie Hannah oughinour( valedic torian of the class is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Goughinour. She was born in Buchanan Valley, Em mons county. She received her early education in the district school near iier birth-place, and entered the fourth grade of the Bismarck school in I8!*8. Since then she has passed through the eight grades. She pursued the full Latin course, lias two years of German, and has maintained valedictory rank. Owing to her mother's ill health, a great deal of responsibility for the home work and care of the younger children has fallen upon her: but she lias maintained high rank, notwith standing the extra burden placed upon her. ''Edna L. Armstrong is a daughter of Mr and Mrs. II. A. Armstrong, of Hazelton, X. I. She was born in Kin mons county. She attended school in Bismarck in the tirst grade for one winter, and was in school at Lisbon, Ohio, one winter. With these excep tions, she received her entire element ary education in the common schools of Emmons county. She entered the Bismarck high school in the f.ill of 1901, and lias done the four years' work in tilree years. Three years of the Latin work was completed, solid geometry and civics being substituted for the last year's work in Latin.. THE REFEBEIIDIMk What Some Prominent 5ay About It. John /..

A. UKLANII, Edgeley, N. D. Base-Ball "Hooting" Dying Out. (St. Louts ICepultllr.] Nothing in this year's base-ball sea son has been so remarkable as the sal utory giowtii of intelligent Interest in the national game and the decay of "rooting," as exuberant demonstra tion of partisanship lias been called by base-ball people. For the past two years the "rooters" have been making themselves less and less of the insufferable nuisance tliejr were before the advent of clean base ball and its inculcator, the American league, in St. Louis. The worry of at tending base-ball games lias become very much less intensified since "root ing" has begun its decay. For it was a most idiotic, sliameful and sense less practice. No one, or course, objects to a gond, solid cheer that has the unmtatalmMe deptli and solidity or tone that oan come only from a genuine ebullition of enthusiasm. Nor to the rousing hiss or stentorian groan which marks proper (Usappruydl. It is against the hollow, hang-lipped, slack-brained, meaningless bawling that is wearisome and disgusting be yond all endurance. The worst of It was that until lately —even now some of them still exist— these insufferable rowdies in tlteir silli ness imagined that they were to a large extent honorable public institu tions instead of intolerable pubiiCj nuisances. They felt that their riglit to hoot, abuse and -offend was as hit alienable as that of,free speech. As a result of this every base-ball player and umpire was subjected to the vile outburst of artificial, unmanly, ungen erous, undignified, un-American howl ing, whicn degraded the stands to the level of the cages in the menagerie. North Dakota Magaahw. The issue of the North Dakota Mag azine to lie put forth in a few days by Commissioner of Agriculture W. C. Giibreath contains much matter of historical and other value to North Dakota. There is a sketch of the new counties of Adams, Hettinger and Bowman, profusely illustrated witli photographs, and that will serve to set these new counties before tlte peo ple of the country. An old photograph of a territorial council of 1874, fur nished by Andrew Mcilench,of Fargo, one of tiie members of that body, pro vides inspiration for an interesting article by the editor dealing with that early-day council and the legislation enacted by it. Mi'. Mcilench and Hon. E. A. Williams or liisinarek were tiie only members of that coun cil from that part of the Territory which now constitutes the state of North Dakota. When it is considered that North Dakota now ha* forty sen atorial districts and a legislative body comprising 140 members, the growth of the state will be apparent. There will also be a sketch of Lari more, show ing the growth or that enterprising city, an interesting article with refer ence to early-day missionaries among the Indians, some letter press and pic tures showing tlie building operations in piogress in North Dakota cities, an out line of the irrigation woik that will be opened next month at Williston, and a variety of edifying and valuable articles and pictures.
