'Rah for Baseball,

Today is the opening Of the base
ball season in San Antonio and it
promises to be a most successful
one. The Austin team arrived this
morning and is now in the grounds
of the Jockey club prepar-
ing for the game, which
will commence at o'clock
this afternoon. The local team
will be in it this season to defeat
everything that hobs up and in or
der to do this nothing but good
ball must be played. The locals
have been practicing the past few
weeks and are now in condition to
play for their lives. The grounds
were rolled this morning and are
now as smooth as billiard table.

The national policies of the Re-
publican party will be contended
for by all Texas Republicans ire
spective of state differences and the
protective features of all former
platforms will be rigidly adhered
to in every instance. The differ
ences in the party do not, as among
the Democrats, extend to matters
of party doctrine, but are solely re-
lated to the question of party or
ganization and control in the
South.

Texas Republicans must get to-
gether and saw wood or the repre-
sentation of the state in the Nation
al Republican convention will be
cut down. The states that elect a
Republican President are growing
very tired of having the nomina-
tion controlled by states that have
not cast an electoral vote since '76,
for the nominees Of the Republican
convention. What is true of Texas
is equally true Of all the Southern
States. 1t is saw wood or be sawed
off.

The bottom is falling out of the
miners strike all over the country.
These men are to be mmisera ted
in that their wages are so low and
their labors so hard, but violence
and crime never righted wrongs.
Restore the equilibrium between
labor and the demand for it and
there will be no trouble in properly
adjusting the wages of labor. That
restoration can only come through
prompt restriction of immigration
by Congress.
