BAKER VIIIS Baker City, July 3. (Special.) Although Baker City won yesterday In the opening game with La Grande by a score of 4 to 0, the game has been protested by Manager O'Brien and will be up In the air until President Thompson makes a decision on tho deal. Umpire Tlce's decisions were so raw and bo Incessantly wrong that the manager has several grounds on which to stand la making his protest. The batteries 1n yesterday's con test were: La Grande Cotteman and Fournler; Eaker City Gregg and Ward. , Ode to the Grande Kumle Valley, (By Mrs. C. B. Renshaw, of Imbler.) I've lived In Iowa, The land of hogs and corn, Where you have to get up early And wUb ' :CC!5 tC; Where you get your fingers frosted ; I A-snappln' off the corn, And your toes are nipped In places ' You're an object most forlorn. I've lived in South Dakota, 1 Where the Russian thistle blows, Where the wheat looks pale and sick ly And you have a thousand woes; But you have to keep a-diggln' -If you don't you'll starve that's all. To live In South Dakota You must have a lot of gall. I've lived In Colorado, That state of world-wide fame With its luscious pears and peaches, Its apples and big game; I've drunk the mountain water And breathed the air so pure, But to live In Colorado It takes the cash that's one thing sure. I've lived In old Missouri, I've watched the natives shake; For genuine malaria' Missouri takes the cake; The mud and storms are frightful,' The rVrn so yellow looks '' Khe has one redeeming feature, That is, her right good cooks. . The Grande Ronde Valley, Oregon, Is my home nt last; ril bid farewell to other lands Forgetting all the past, For here's where wheat and "taters" grow Attaining such a size It keeps you busy all day lor.g Bulging out your eyes. To see the many sights that grow The pearhes and the pears. The cherries and the apples, too. If cases nil our cares To know when harvest time Is paused. Whin all the fields are bare. Our crops will feed a multitude, And still have some to spare. You miiy sing nhont the glories That your enslern states ran boast, You may have the preference Of the fine you love the most; But everything considered In winter, summer, spring and fall, I have a n"akln' notion That old Oregon heals them all. notici: OF ACCOUNT.
