The base ball cards were shumed
again last week. and it is an open Ques-
lion as 10 whether the interstate or
Michigan State leagues will hold the
winning hand when it comes TO a show
down. The situation is badly mixed.
When Myers and Gunnels withdrew
from the Interstate they applied for adj
mission in the Michigan organization.
The Nichiganders held a meeting last
week. and there was WOW, Wlot'

went uD higher than kite. Toledo

LAWLESSNESS A FOE TO LABOR.
Indianapolis Sentinel
The sphere Of benefit OF united labor
Is not in lawlessness, but in lawtulneSs.
IL is not in rash outbreaks Of anger and
violence. but in rational confederation of
the needs Of workingmen and lawful
effort 20 supply them. In this country
workingmen can secure any laws they
need for their full protection by stand
ing for them, and they can secure the
enforcement Of all laws for their 0ene-

the people generally is with organized
labor. buc there is no speei.er way OF
losing it than by turning the streets

CITY REGISTRATION,

nEGrsTEnED YESTERDAY.
The Grand Total Mt the Closing To-
morrow Might WIN Probabiy
teach Five and n Half Thousand.

The city registration yesterday for
the Democratic primaries of Tarrant
county, far exceeded the number regis
tered any day since the books have
been open. There were 443 who came
forward and had their names enrolled.
This makes total to date OF 4574.
The largest number for any single
day before yesterday was 1863. which
were the figures reached last Saturday
The registration 80 far has exceeded
the number at which conservative esti-
mates had placed 1t. II the registration
today and tomorrow is as large as on
yesterday the grand total will reach
the five and a half thousand mark.
Registrar Puckett has been using
every precaution to prevent those from
registering who are not entitled to vote,
but has had great difficulty In this re-
gard, as many have been ushered upon
him whom he was satisfied We're
ineligible. These he has point blankly
refused TO allow to have their names
registered. though oftentimes he has
done II over the protest OF the friends
OF candidates who had brought the APP
plicants forward.
There remains only two more days in
which TO register-today and tomorrow.
Those who ere entitled TO vote in the
primaries should keep this In mind.
The books will be closed promptly at
8 o'clock tomorrow night.
