and Springfields of the Eastern League,
Catcher Daniel Burke of the latter team
met with an accident which will end his
playing for this season, at least 1t was in
the first inning. Tom Burns of Brooklyn be-
ing on third base and Treadway at the bat.
The latter hit to Stecham, who threw the
ball home to Catcher Burke. 1t was a wild
throw, and, as Burke stepped to the third
base side of the plate to catch the ball,
Burns ran into him with fearful force.
Burke uttered a yell which struck terror to
the hearts of the spectators and fell to the
ground. The players picked him up and car
ried him into the dressing room, where a
doctor attended him. 1t was found that his
leg was broken at the ankle, and that the
bone protruded through the flesh. An am
bulance took the unfortunate player to st.
Mary's Hospital
Manager Burns Of the Springfield says
that Burke's family will not suffer through
this misfortune. 1t was Burkes first game
with the Springfield team, and he was con-
sidered the best catcher on the nine. His
home Is at Whitman, Kan, where he has a
wife and three children Salaries in the
Eastern League do not begin until May l,
but Manager Burns said that Burkes salary
would begin yesterday, and be paid through
the season.

GREAT PROBLEMS SOLVED

EDITOR ADvoCATE:--I learned very
early in life that problems Of science
were readily solved if we approach them
from the right direction; and that most
questions Of state and public policy turn
on very few considerations; and these
lay at the root of the matter, 90 that by
penetrating to the bottom OF the ques-
tion, it ia easily solved and readily un-
derstood. And this process / afterwards
applied to the serious question Of re-
ligion with satisfactory results, etc,
thorough conviction Of the soundness Of
the conclusions arrived at. Ordinary
politicians and the party press, whose
business it ls to keep community divided
and at loggerheads, deal entirely in sur
face facts, mere debris that floats to and
fro on the great sea Of politics; and
which, in many cases, are no facts at all,
or facts made to order for their uses and
purposes; and in other cases they may
be true, but they are not the whole
truth, and, therefore, are susceptible OF
eternal disputstion, and consequently the
wrangle goes on indefinitely. Thus
politics wax warm; and the furnace OF
disputstion is fed with fuel that drives the
contestants further and further apart,
instead Of bringing them together, as
should be the design. But this would
not suit the purpose Of the Office seekers
and politicians who live and exist in the
atmosphere Of contention, deception and
fraud. To do 30 would settle things; and
that would be q calamity to them, Rs
their occupation would be gone. True,
very many Of them are incapable OF PEN
etrating to the reason Of things or COM
pretending the philosophy on which
they turn. But it is mot 30 much an in
ability to solve questions and get TO-
gether with them az an unwillingness to
do 80. And thus some questions OF gov
ernment policy have been in dispute
among us from the very beginning OF the
government. And these differences and
disputstions have their bad effects both
in religion and politics. For thousands
Of people refuse to approach the great
subject OF religion, because popes and
priests have wrsngled over it for CEN
turies and come to no settled conclusion
as to what constitutes orthodoxy or the
condition necessary to salvation. And
other thousands decline TO enter the
political field and try to understand the
problems Of state, assigning az reason
that If Webster and Calhoun, Seward
and Sumner, Sherman and Cleveland
can't understand and Bgree upon them,
certainly they are not equal to the task,
and, therefore, will not undertake it.
Nothing is more reasonable, not to say
nonsensicsl, than such conclusion. Be-
cause most OF these didn't want the peo-
pie to understand or to come to any
settled and satisfactory conclusion upon
them. They didn't want the questions
decided and put to rest. for then, like
ingalls,, they would be statesmen out Of
ajob.
There was Webster, in his early man
hood free trader, and making most
convincing argument against oil proteO-
tive tariff legislation, while Calhoun
stood for protection because the inter-
ests Of the sections they represented de-

tateg. Doss any one suppose Seward OF
Sumner would have been violent anti
slavery advocates had they lived in and
represented Georgia or AlRbamAS And
witness John Sherman alternately in
dorsing and discarding the greenback
and trying hard to destroy it; denounc-
ing the bondholder for demanding gold
ut the rate Of 100 and 129 cents on the
dollar in payment OF bonds that cost him
only 40 and 60 cents on the dollar; and
afterwards fstheFtpg the aCcursed
scheme for the contraction Of the cur
rSnCy Of the country which he had time
and again repudiRted as destructive to
all the industries Of the nation and the
road to universal ruin, as it has proved,
and the end is not yet. And behold
Cleveland ignoring the platform on
which he was elected and which scored
the republicans for outlRwing silver, and
as the Capital says, running his car in
the same identical rut as his predecessor.
Don't the reader see, then, these men are
not after the truth. They are partisans,
and bent on keeping up the parties.
They don't want TO settle questions,
they want to keep them open. Their
bread and butter depends on their keep
ing them open and undecided, 90 that
they may earn their livelihood BY dis
putation, and play the game Of state.
craft; looking down on the common
people as mere Lilliputisns grovelling at
their feet. A writer has said: "The
statesman Of the Old World has caviled
for hundreds Of years over the liberty Of
the press and individual sovereignty,
and couldn't settle it. WhyH They
didn't want to. But when Thomas JET
fsrson, q Virginia farmer; Benjamin
Franklin, o Philadelphia printer, and
John Adams, Massachusetts, lawyer,
got together one summer day, 1l8 years
ago, they settled the whole business in
fifteen minutes" is a fact, and alas
for poor human nsturel How it is hum
bugged,nOt only by the glitter and tiDsel
OF royalty and aristocrscy in the Old
World, but by charlRtans and mounte-
banks right here at home, in its own
fsvorite domicile and in the house Of it's
friends.
And where would the popes end csrdi-
mails, bishops and priests be, il the con-
secrated wafer and other dogmas Of the
church, over which they have fought for
centuries, were taken from themH And
where would the 10000 ministers Of the
gospel Of this country be, il all denomi-
nations were merged in one, and they
had no questions Of baptism or sancti6-
cation, or foreoEdin6tion and election to
wrsnRle over and keep their victims
bound to them as with hooks Of steel?
Their occupation would be gone and
they would be turned out to grass. The
greatest misfortune that could befsll
them would be that all men should come
to regard the creed Of the Savior as the
sll-in. all of religion, and centre their
faith and hopes in that as "ths sum Of
the law and the prophets" as He de-
clared it. But ITO love God with all the
heart and soul and strength" and regard
our reighbors as ourselves Is too simple
a creed for those who live by keeping
mankind divided and by rubbing their
