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.
