Hastening n Base Boil War,

The World says: 1t Is much to be feared
that President Freedman's stand in the
matter will lead to most unpleasant re-
suits President Byrne Of the BROOKLYN
club was in an angry and disgusted frame
of mind after the adjournment, and said,
significantly:
I'VE will meet tomorrow and see il eleven
men are to be controlled by one. We have
been twenty-five years building up the ma
tional game to its present high standard
and win not tolerate latter-day Samson
to come in TO pull down the pillars of the
structure and destroy us in the ruins"
What does that mean. Mr.. Byrne?" was
asked. 1.
What does that mean?" repeated the
magnate. Why. II twelve men were cross
ing a dangerous river In boat and one fool
set to rock the boat. imperiling the lives
of the others. what would be done in that
case"
'What?' came in an interested chorus
Why" said Mr.. Byrne, as he turned to
walk away, ''the other eleven would be
compelled to pitch the twelfth man over
board to save their own lives
The remark shows that there is a crisis
In National League affairs. and the out
come Of today's session will be awaited
with anxious Interest. 1t is not probable
from the good ship National League. but
some step may be taken that will widen
the gulf that exists between Mr.. Freedman
and other club owners and hasten what
seems to betoken an Inevitable base bail
war.
1t is said that at today's meeting the 9TH
er clubs may decide to influence Rusie to
send on the contract calling for 81 400. II
the New York club does not employ the
pitcher because of the Interference by the
other clubs. the matter Will be at once
brought before the national board OF arbi-
tratfon. and that body will take Rusfe of
the New York reserve list. leaving him free
to sign with any club he pieases
Ard the disruption Of the National League

And STILL THEY COME
New Buildings Now Going Up In
and Around Elk Point.

In spite of reports 10 the contrary
prosperity persists in forcing itself
upon the people OF the northwest in
general, and the farmers of Union
county in particular. Those who are
in position to Judge say that more
new buildings have been erected in
this section this fall than during any
like period for the past ten years; and
1t is reasonable to presume that when
II farmer puts from $500 to $500 into
new buildings he must be enjoying Il
fair degree OF prosperity.
From time TO time during the past
three months the COURIER has pub.
lished building items, and this week
we have secured the names OF several
more citizens upon whom prosperity
has smiled to such an extent that they
have been enabled to erect new build
ings.

But Judge Jones has other claims Il
the gratitude from that part Of thu
public which is affected by the courts
While 1t had been the custom In thil
circuit and the others to hold up cases
to pass them over from term to term
to deiay decisions for years sometimes
Judge Jones has cleaned the docket in
every county at every term Of court
He has been distinguished from hia
predecessors and many of the other
judges by his ability in dispatchino
business. He has thus not only Civ.
en- prompt justice, but has saved the
counties thousands upon thousands OF
dollars. He has been not only an able
Judge. but has been Woodworking to IN
extnt not elsewhere equalled In this
state.
That he has been fair and impartial
is beyond question. II he had not
been the lawyers, the people most con-
versant with the facts and most inter-
ested In the integrity of the court.
would know 1t. Yet large majority
of the bar OF the circuit are for him.
On the delegation from this county to
the Judicial! convention were twelve at
torneys az follows: d. r. Bailey, c.
l.. Brockway, Fl. Fl. Keith, Park Da-
Wis, f. Parliman, A. F. Orr. G. H. XII
land, r. II. Warren, A. Frizzell, Nels
Dahl, H. Robertson and today every
Republican lawyer and some others in
this county are working for Jones. The
same thing is true in the other coun-
ties in this circuit. It means that the
attorneys believe Judge Jones to be
honest, impartial, able. prompt and
businessltke. The lawyers are the
people who are familiar with Judge
Jones' record, the ones whose judg-
ment as to his fitness and qualidca-
tons must be taken with respect.
The air has been filled with various
charges of incompetence against the
Judge. Who arep utting out these
charges? The most active propaga-
tor is Joe Kirby, whose record every
one knows and who is fighting for re-
yenge because Judge Jones very prop
erly punished him for gross disrespect.
With Kirby are G. O. Bailey and the
little cOterie of Pop bosses who are
seeking to overthrow a Judge whom
they cannot handle and whose decis-
ions defeat their trickeries. In their
desperation they are resorting to the
lowest ISLANDERS and are throwing
about as hover Of mud in the hope
that some will stick. But the great
mass of the people know Judge
Jones. They know him to be the best
Judge they have had and they propose
to keep a man they know and have
found faithful.
/ Judge Jones record shows him to be
the ablest, most accurate, most promp'
most accommodating, most safe, most
altogether satisfactory Judge In the
state. The lawyers are for him, The
litigants are for him. The haters Of
SANDER arc for him. And the people
at large are for him. Everyone who
believes in retaining an Official tried
and not found wanting should vote
| for Judge Jones.

Judge Jones has been reversed by
the supreme court In two and one-half
per cont of the cases he has tried. No
other Judge who has ever sat on the
bench In this state has record any
where nearly approaching this.

There has been some talk about the
large number of reversals OF Judge
Jones's rulings. Here is the record II
gives the percentage Of reversals in all
the cases appealed:
J. w. Jones-24 per cent.
e. G. Smith-29 per cent.
J. o. Andrews-51 per cent.
Frank Smith-50 per cent.
A. w. Campbell-3O per cent.
L. e. Gaffy-25 per cent.
William Gardner-45 per cent.
A. J. Plowman-65 per cent.
Frank Aikens-33 per cent.
G. s. Palmer-40 per cent.
And It 10 to be remembered that
Judge Jones has handled more bust
ness than any two other judges.
