Albany Camp 103 W. 0. W.
Chose Their Representa
tives Last Evening.
That Albany will be represented
by a fast baseball team during the
coming season, is indicated beyond a
doubt from the showing the boys have
thus far made against the two pro
fessional teams they have played.
About three weeks ago Manager
Senders unhesitatingly sent his aggre
gation onto the field for a battle with
Kick William's Portland Northwest
league "Colts," when that team
stopped off here enroute to Portland,
after several months hard training in
Southern California. The local boys
had had no practice whatever save the
individual work outs at home, nor had
they been together for practice as
an organized baseball team before
tackling the husky Portland lads. The
field on that dav was in poor condi
tion for fast baseball but nevertheless
Nick William s bunch didn t wane
away with Albany, looking at it from
a vit'w nnint of amateurs vs. profes
sionals, for the score was only 9 to 3
in Portland's favnr. Even Coach Gar
rett's O. A. C. aggregation failed to
make a better showing than this, and
they too have had several -weeks'
training prior to taking on the "Colts"
whom they played the next day after
the contest here, when William's
bunch piled up a score of 11 against
the Aggies 1.
Even when the Albany boys tangled
with Manager Hulen's Canadians last
Sunday, baseball critics say that they
made a much better showing against
those formidable adversaries than O.
A. C. ever made in previous games
played with the same bunch. Up to
the present time the Canucks have de
feated the Aggies five games with ap
parent ease and they only defeated Al
bany last Sunday by a score of 3
to 1.
.Manager Senders has undoubtedly
got some southpaw pitcher in Bill
Patterson and his pitching prolivities
have meant much to the success of
the team thus far and he will be a
strong factor throughout the season.
His baseball experience has been con
fined closely to local baseball circles,
although it has been said that "Bill"
can play in much faster company.
Hill Salisbury, an old timer, is an
other member of Sender's pitching
staff and many fans can recount the
thrilling games this veteran has
pitched and won irom his sheer ability
to twirl the sphere. "Saul," as he is
familiarly known, can do it again
and will be Sender's main reliance ill
the event that Patterson gets laid up
or when he is playing on the bench.
Lyle Bigbee, the sensational youngster
with the big whip, will probably no't
be included on the pitching staii until
he completes the season with the
University oi Oregon team. In the
event he would play with the local
aggregation, according to the rules of
the university, he would become in
eliKihle to play with the varsity team

Senders' fielding staff is composed
of A. A. Mickle, C. Mickle, Charlie
Monson, Gordon Ryals and A. Martin.
A. Mickle and Monson, who played
with the last year team, will probably
be permanent fixtures in the left ami

so well last year, while it will be nip

Williamette Valley and Southern
Oregon may receive an increased pop
ulation of fully 10,000 people through
one single exodus of farmers from
Canada alone, in the next year or two.
A delegation of four well-to-do land
owners of Saslcatchawan Province is
conducting a quiet investigation of the
Willamette, Umpqua and Rogue
River valleys, as the representatives
of more than 3500 Canadian fanners
who are desirous of joining one vast
immigrative movement to uregon.
In case the delegates now in this
state find that the prices of lands hi
in the territory tributary to Portland
markets are reasonable, that the trans
portation facilities are adequate and
that the markets arc of easy access,
this unprecedented horde of new set
tlers will make arrangements to dis
pose of their Canadian lands and come
to Oregon as soon as possible. It
is estimated on good authority that
with the families and children of these
farmers it will mean a new popula
tion of at least 10,000 and probably
nearer 12,000.
The four delegates are being con
ducted through the Willamette valley
by W. H. Jenkins, traveling passenger
agent of the Southern Pacific, and
will gather their data upon which to
base their recommendations from the
sections tributary to Albany, Salem,
Eugene, Corvallis, Roseburg and
Grants Pass.
They arrived here the first of the
week, and departed on this tremen
dously significant mission Wednesday
niirht. Thev were provided with let
ters of introduction to the leading
bankers of the cities named, these let
ters being furnished by Emery Oltn
stead chairman of the agricultural
committee of the Oregon State Bank
ers' Association, and the Canadians
will make their preliminary survey of
the Western Urcgon throtign confer
ences with these bankers, one of
whose principal functions is to be
thoroughly familiar with what consti
tutes fair values for farm lands in the f
communities they serve. ;
Chairman Olmstead also wrote per- j
sonal letters to these financiers advis- !
ing them of the purpose of the investi- !
gating tour of the Saskatchawan form- '
ers. The most important phase of
the situation is that the visiting dele
gates will have nothing whatever to
do with real estate operators during;
their stay in the Oregon valleys. They
will be put in touch with the actual '
landowners, big or little tracts, di
rectly upon the recommendations of
the bankers in these various cities,
and will deal directly with the own
ers. Inasmuch as several different sec
tions are being investigated, it natur
ally behooves the bankers in the dif
ferent localities to make the best pos
sible showing to the committee.
In dealing with owners at first
hand, ivt only will inflated prices and
exhorbitant commissions be avoided,
hut the Canadian will be able to get
much more reliable information about
the soil, drainage, r:iinf:tll. kinds oi
crops, etc., than they could by report
ing to the glowing pamphlets of the
really brokers.
