' SAN FRANCISCO, May 2. (Special.)
For the tlrst time this week the Seals
hung one on the Beavers at the Valencia
street lot this afternoon. The score was
10 to 3 and the Portland contingent, or
a portion of it, played such sloppy ball
that, the Seals simply were compelled to
win. . "
MeCredie made the mistake of putting
Busher Bloomfleld to work just when his
team was rounding Into winning form.
The young man was very bad indeed, and
the Seals put the rollers under him for
fair in the fourth Inning, when he retired
under an avalanche of hits and bases
on balls and made way for Pernoll, whose
. reception was quite as rough-shod.
The work of the slender Mr. Henley on
the Seal slab was not so high class as
to shine out brightly, either.
Kid Mohler was the fielding star of the
home. team, dividing honors with Pearl
Casey,, of the Beavers. Both men had
many chances, and most" of them hard
ones. They were in the game every min
ute of the time and caused what little
applause the stand and bleachers could
work up during the afternoon.
Raftery committed a piece of bad head
work in the third inning. With men on
first and third and only one to the bad,
he hit a slow one to Henley. Instead of
running the ball out, Big Tom stood still
at the plate and allowed himself to be
doubled, up. -The score:

burn won easily from. Salem on the Trl-
City League grounds this afternoon, score
7 to 3. Woodburn's victory was due largely

ning. The first man up for Woodburn.
Polen, who plays second base, hit one of

NOW UP TO THE HOUSE
National Drainage Bill May Be
come a Law.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU,
Washington. May 2. Friends of the
National drainage biy are very much
encouraged by reason of the fact that
that measure has passed the Senate,
and been referred to the House Com
mittee on Pubuc Lands. While there
is very little time left for its consid
eration in the House, there is a slight
possibility that it might get through
the lower branch of Congress before
adjourment, but this will only be pos
s. -le in the event that there ts gen
eral support of the measure, both in
conimitte and in the House. If there
is as much difference of opinion in the
House as prevailed in the Senate, the
bill will probably, go over to the next
session.
The bill, in effect, creates a National
drainage fund, similar to the National
reclamation act, providing that all
moneys received from the sale of pub
lic lands in states not contributing to
the reclamation fund shall be utilized
in draining . swamp and overflowed
lands. The drainage fund will be
small in comparison to the reclama
tion fund, for the bulk of the receipts
from land sales Is utilized for irriga
tion. However, the cost of reclaim
ing swamp lands is small in compari
son to the cost of reclaiming desert
lands, and one dollar in the drainage
fund will go as far as five dollars in
the reclamation fund.
South Will Get Benefit.
Because the South would be the larg
est beneficiary under the drainage act,
an effort was made by the Secretary of
the Interior to have the bill amended so
that the Government could increase the
fund by making loans to those states
which have no public lands- remaining,
and hence which cannot contribute to
the fund. At first the suggestion was
met with approbation, and Southern
Senators gladly took up the suggestion;
but when the bill was up for final ac
tion these same Senators voted against
the loan feature, thus curtailing the
amount of work that can be done in
their states. v Naturally, If the .bill be
comes a law, the state contributing the
funds will insist upon being the first to
benefit, and justice would demand that
they receive the first benefits under the
law. Nevertheless, the very Senators
who objected to enlarging the fund by
loaning Government money, wii. be the
first to put In appearance and demand
the lion's share of the fund.
The drainage proposition is entirely
meritorious; just as meritorious as the
reclamation act, and would add to the
arable area of the United States some
thing like 80,000,000' acres of land,
which would be of great value once the
surplus water is drained off.
Plans for Administration.
The general administration ' of the
drainage, act is intended to follow the
lines of the administration of the re
clamation act, and If Western men can
dictate, they will place the administra
tion of the drainage act under the Re
clamation Service. The Secretary of the
Interior would have entire charge, but
would place the immediate administration
in the hands of the chief engineer of the
Reclamation Service,
The drainage bill, as stated above. Is
by no .means a law; a serious difference
of opinion in the House committee would
prevent its consideration this session. . or
a determined opposition - on the floor of
the House might be fatal. However, the
real friends of the bill are determined
to exhaust every means at their com
mand to get the bill through, and they
have some slight hope of success.

C. M. Hargeu professor of journalism
I the Lawrence University, lately

an address on journalism before the
university class. Here is an address
on journalism that may Interest the
class: After an editor has worked
on a paper a long time, he learns to
be careful, because mistakes make him
trouble. But he has a great time dry
ing to coax the younger men to be
careful. Example: Lately a young man
named Arthur Armstrong bad small
pox. A careless young reporter printed
the name ""Albert" Armstrong. There is
an Albert Armstrong at Atchison en
gaged in the grocery business. He
made a roar, -of course, and he had a
right to. And the roar was made to
the editor, not to the careless young
reporter. The editor printed a cor
