LEGAL BA1IIE
, ' By reason of a decision handed
lown by President V. I Thompson
of Pendleton, wfcu heads the Inland
" Empire league, the La Grande team Is
alleged to have lost In the first legal
fight to come up since the league wm
organized. The contested game was
with Baker City In this city on May
30. Manager Hosier protested a de
cision made by Umpire Splllman in the
ninth inning, and by going to Presi
dent Thompson with his side of the
story only, he was able f.0 secure a
decision on the matter, which at the
present time decrees that La Grande
lost the game In Question to Baker
City by the score of 7 to 5.
,; ' Granted New Hearing. ' ' .
' ' t nwa manned bar.
Manager O'Brien arranged for "a hear
ing with Mr. Thompson, and this was
had In Pendleton today, when the
local team pasnod through Pendleton
cn route to Walla Walla, That the
.decision will be reconsidered Is cer
tain, and on the strength of the evi
dence that was presented by the
Babes' manager, it Is nlso practically
assured that the decision will be re
manded and the score allowed to stand
as It was when the game closed on
May SO.
The Baker managcf entered his pro
test because an overthrow by La
Grande went into the crowd where a
rooter picked up the ball. Of course,
if was a blocked ball, but Umpire
Splllman forbid, the. runners from
'registering. Though l4n error In judg
ment of the umpire nobody particu
larly blames Mr. Bplllman, as the
best indicator man on earth ; makes
mistakes.
Counter Protest.
Mr. O'Brien has entered a counter
protest He charges that in the eighth
inning, the fielder and second base
man Juggled the ball In such a 'way
as to make an error clearly evident
on the part of Baker City that shguld
have scored, the La. Grande man, on
third and allowed the local hitter a
base hit As it was, the batter was

called out, retiring the side. The
fielder scooped the ball out of the dust
after It had been touched by the sec
ond baseman. Then, again, the visit
ors were not In regulation uniform,
a feature which annuls all protests,
according to rules of the national
gam. .' . " .
It is practically certain that the
percentage column will ' remain as
originally, as soon as President
Thompson hears the counter protest,
that must be given preference be
cause It occurred In the eighth Inning,
while the Baker City protest aroso in
the ninth.
Was Wasting Away,
"I had been troubled with kidney
disease for the . last five , years,"
writes Robert R. Watts of Salem, Mo.
"I lost flesh and never felt well and
doctored with leading physicians and
tred all remedies suggested without
relief. Finally I tried Foley's Kidney
Cure and less than two pottles com
pletely cured me and I am now eound
and well." During the summer kidney
Irregularities are often caused by ex
cessive drinking or being overheated.
Attend to. the kidneys at once by us
