ORALALLA AND COZAD ARE WINNERS IN FRIDAY'S (JAMES Declined Without Thanks. Wo nre In receipt of a communlca tion signed "Democrat" which rather severely criticises Messrs.

Tho names of these men woro not printed on tho ballotB, but by suggestion of Nortli Platto democrats word was passed among tho "faithful" to write In tho names with tho result that Mr. Larson received 140 votes and Mr. Wlilto eighty-four. Prior to the pri mary an attempt was mado to havo Mr. White consent to become a candi date but he declined, and following his declination it wna decided to "draft" him. That ho has filed his acceptance will bo n surpriso to many, as thoy pre sumed hl3 original declaration would bo final.

Why? Miss Vivlnn Knox returned tho lat ter part of last week from a threo weoks vacation trip to Denver nnd other Colorado points. Before tho largest crowd that has yet been out to a ball game this year North Platto went down to defeat tho last day of the tournament at the hands of tho Cozad aggregation by the score ot 2 to 1 and Ogalalla defeated Ilershoy by tho same score. Both games were fast and were tho best gnmes or tho tournnment. Tho Oga-lalla-Hcrshoy game was played In ono hour and thirty minutes nnd the other in an hour and forty-five min utes. In tho first game Ogalalla scored ono In tho first nnd Hershey ono If the secon,d. Thero was no more scor ing then until tho eighth and It look ed as though nn extra inning ganio would bo required. In the eighth Burke lined out a two baggor, Beal sacrificed, putting him on third and Marlett sacrificed, scoring Burke. Both teams then tightened, but the ganio was lost as tho Giants were un ablo to tlo up tho score. Bcchon nl- lowcd seven hits and struck out seven men and Marlett allowed two lilts and struck out flvo. Each side mndo only ono error. The Cozad-North. Platte game wad a fight from tho start, and no scores woro recorded until tho fifth Inning" when Cozad bunched five hits and ran across two scores. In the second Inning, however, Pierce, running for Pass, worked a squeeze play In from third, but tho catcher interfered with tho batsman nnd tho umpire made him go back to his baso on tho ground that it was a dead hall. Tho locals lost somo of their ginger nftcr that, but thoy played good ball and Jones tightened up nnd did not give tho hoys from tho onst a look In. North l'lntto scored ono. In tho ninth when with two out Twoomy lined out a two baggor. Sandnll then pinchccl hit for Halllgan and lined out nnothor, scoring Twoomoy, but Jones ground ed out, ending the gnmo witli the score 2 to 1. Artloy allowed four hits and struck out flvo nnd Jones allowed sovon hits and struck out soven. Each team mado four errors. Tho results of tho tournnment left Cozad and Ognlalla with honors oven for first and second place and North Platto and Ilershoy with equal chanc es for third and fourth plnce.
