Phone Main 8. Huntington Suggested In Favor of El gin by Baker Promoter. . , ... .i ... . . . . . .. To learn first hand the baseball sit uation In this city, F. M Goodman of Baker spent Sunday here discussing the situation and outlining what Ba ker Is willing to do. Chief among the announcements coming from Baker this year, is the decision of the Com mercial cttb to get behind and support the team, meaning that the Baker ag gregation will be handled on a plan very new to Baker. A man v:rsed in baseball and a stranger, comparative ly, to Baker, will manage the players but the Commercial club U going to give business prestige to thj club. The Bakerites are In harmony with the policy of local business men outlined last' Saturday evening In the Observer, nam lv that they want forfeits placed by each club and that the management of the team be done by substantia' business men or by. the commercial club. Baker has perhaps Introduced a new pr; cedent by having the commer cial club at the" head, takinr all re sponsibility of finances, and encourag ed by the decision of the Baker boost ers local baseball fans hone to reach an agre-ment similar In many reaoects with the Baker proposition, with the local commercial club.' This will be taken tip at the first meeting of the directors. Mr. Goodman advances Huntington as the fi!ir"i club, claiming that Ba ker, Hunthr.ton, Union and La Grande would mak; a much less expensive quartet. Mr. Goodman pointed out that It would require the best portion of three nights and all of two days to o to Elgin and the only way for work- ingmen to play baseball is for them to go, play and return on Sundav. For this reason be suggests Huntington as the fourth team In the league. The Baker booster returned home this morning with indication in La Grande and predicts a fine four-club league with plenty of good baseball this summer. MANY ATTEND QUARTERLY COX. FERENCE OF L. D. 8.

N. engineer ov' of thi3 plac: and promi nent in mtn' iT circles during the nast few years an invention at Port land which H claimed to be of rreat value to nilnen. A Portland paper re lates: After many "ars of experiment in trying to save fine gold from placer mines an Oreg t man believes he has found and deve' ped the secret. A dry placer gold sav'-ig machine, Improved by J. N. Blair r d E. A. Stephens, of La Grande, Or., s claimed to do the work. Mr. Stephen' former home was In La Grande, wh:re he was a railroad man. Friday afternoon, at the east enfl of the Morrison rreet bridge he and Blair pave a test o" their nrosnectlng machine, which costs to build $250. Black sand, which contained besld s sold, several nuggets, was poured Into the hopper, and after passing over the "riffles" no water being used, the fin? gold appeared In one place and the nuets In another. The concentrates and black sands were separated from the debris. ; A full sized machine Is two by seven feet, and the two men cllm it will handle five tons of sand ner hour, or more, and save 90 per cent of the gold, concentrates, platinum and black sand The first machine of the company will be niaced on it? own ground In Cali fornia? which will run. It 1s estimated from tests made, about $2 per yard. Mr. Blair says the company can make dividends on trround that runs only 50 cents to the yard. Mr. Blair, who has Just returned from Arizona and California, has se cured thousands of acres of placer ground for his company, as well as a concession from the Mexican govern ment for a large tract of ground in the "Baja" district of Lower Califor nia. It is estimated that the latter ground will average $2 to the yard. FOLEY'S HONEY & TAR FOR ALL COUGHS AXD COLDS. For bronchitis, hoarseness and tick ling In the throat.
