YKKTKIUIAY'N- OAMPM We gave a ride to a well-dressed though foot-sore high way traveler this week-end. He said he was from Seattle nnd headed for Salt Lake because Mrs. ' Landed, the new Seattle mayor, had thrown him out of work. Tell it to the prohibition squad. Sunday's heavy downpour swept a wide swath from La Grande and Mt. Emily to Cove and vicinitv. The wnv tho rain fell here, we could easily have spared some of it to the rest of the Grande Ronde communities. , A few days ago The Observer earned a front page pic ture of "two wives of ono husband." Mrs. Ruth Tilley Autry of Omaha found a telephone number in the pocket of her husband, one day. She called it and found another Mrs. Autry. The two women got together and found they were both married to the same man. Now, was it jealousy nnd snoopiness on the part of tho first woman that caused her. to call that apparently innocent telephone number, or was it her woman's "instinct" which we hear so much niiout; that made her smell a mouse? " Theerful Truth about business. "Sentiment is growing," says a current business review," uiui earnings in tne second quarter will generally exceed those of tho first quarter, and that tho business nr. I hi. onri of the year will make a better showing than in the corres- ponaing nair of last year." This reviewer happens to be One of the mnnv whn. until just lately, have been making doleful comments about the Musiness ouuook. liven now he cannot resist ndding: "After , mm quarter, however, a let-up is generally expected." , Professional writers about business have simply got to i"misis, accepting even the best situation with qunli ficatfon and hedging. They want to play safe, in case nny ....... ,...,,,,,., jvaiui iuiiuu snoum snow an American business checkers that, as a rule, it's safer to be optimistic. There may not oven bo "tho seasonal business slump" this year. It has been a rather cold, late spring, retarding some Kinds of . business but probably doing little harm on the Whole. Many weather sharps foresee a cool summer. If mat proves true, the cool weather, while Inn-ting trade in some lines of hot-weather goods, may so energize and stim ulate the population that general business will be excellent mi summer and then grow still better in tho fall. MUD AND DUST HO Arts "I would rather eat dust than mud," says the governor . ,. ' . 8 We rom Pro'wm. Meaning that ho is satisfied with gravel roads WllPt. ho nnn't n-nf KWfu. Many states and many communities seem to think that in improving roads they must take one jump from dirt to pav.ng-as if there were nothing between. Gravel or ma cadam roads arc by no means to be scorned, especially when tnev are o-iven n hinrint- nf n i .... ., water and keep tire-suction from tearing them up. Canada is n revelation in this regard to American tourists Its roads are mostly gravel, nnd while by no means so satis factory ns paved roads, they are vastly better than mnnv of our dirt roads. Hotter, too, by the way, than most of" our gravel roads because, though often not built so well in the first place, they are better kept up. -..There may well be many proper grades of transition from wagon trails to wide, solid-pavcd highways, ns shown by the oiling operations in Union rnm.iv ,im,.i.... the amount of traffic, the ability of the community nnd state to stand the expense, and the local nature of the soil and local building materials. More practical appreciation of' this fact would give tho rest of the country thousands of miles of passably good roads where now there are none de serving the name. . .

Por years the Intentional pass In busebull has been bun of the most unsatlxruetory pkiys from the view point or the fan. , Klnco random pu.va tho way. It seems some effort should be mado to curtail Its ull too frequent use, Many Kurircstlann have been offer ed but apparently none has been deemed worthy of a trial, Ijist fall tho jrlft safety became us unpopular in football a tho in tentional puux in buscball.

The wlnnlnir of (lie (tame Is, of course, the blir thing.: Any move that will keep the apposition at bay Irt regarded as Kood baseball, re- Kunlle.-s of how It uppculs to the funs. Practically every American len- iruc mnmiKcr works on the theory that If yon stop Huth. you crane tho Yunkees' greatest threat, you keep tho K-amo buster out of the picture. , There Is no easier, way to re move the Ituth niennco than to or der the pitcher to puss him. However, sueh a method of dls- posini; or Uuth, doesn't irlve the supporters of tho frame n run for heir money, since they get few If any opportunities to. see Uuth in his favorite specialty, the' making of home runs. . pars iiPTii oprn.v Tho Philadelphia.

I doubt if any club eocg to the extremes tho A's do In curtullliiR tntirs battliiR- efforlH. If In doubt, Hive 1I mi a base on bulls, Is the St policy or the Maekian pltchi'rs. In a recent series with 'the Ath letics, Huth received nino busou on balls, in the pinch, whcM 'there wa a chance that one oMiiH lonir ilrlvm "would " break trp it lio bull Kiiii"', no was always purpo.Heiy passed. (.- Tho Athletics won nil tllrcn frames by the marirln or one run. so from the standpoint of wlnnlnir haxehull. It was wisdom. Hut what about tlio funs? PONXIE MACK'S IIVVN In several cases, tlio Athletics In pusshift Ituth put the tylnir run on first huso. Twice tho winnlmr run was placed on first when ituth was granted a base on balls. Penally it Is not considered frood boseball to do either or these thlnus but Until und his big black but make rival managers forget, ubout baseball precedent. The Athletics are not alone in their methods or stopping Uuth by the use or tho Intentional pass, I make comment on the play or the Muckinen, hrc.'iusc the Athletics stopped New York after to Yanks nan won 16 strnlght. The dope was, "Ir we stop Ulilh. then we have the Yanks stopped." u so worked out. STOP II.XIIK m -I'll ' Ueeently I saw the manager of another club order Uuth passed on Ills first throe trips to the plnle, despilo tlie met that 26,000 people were In attendance and a majority or them came either to enthuse as Ituth hit a home run or rnr.it him us he struck out or popped up. On two occasions It was good baseball to pass him latenlionully. Ituuners were on the bases nt tho time and tlio game was close. However. I thought the other pass given him was going to the extreme. Wllh the bunkee .three. run to the good. Uuth wns the rlrst man up in one of the late in nings or the game, lie was walked on tour balls so wide of tho plate It wus ridiculous. At that singe a home run by Uuth would have simply added one moro run to the Yanks' margin nnd Ullth doesn't make 11 elreult drive 1 1 f rN.;' J Indians Down Bucks: Parris Walks in Run lll.l'K MOI NTAIX I.KACI K Chilis v. u i-ct.
