COUNTY, OFFICIAL PAPER.
No ENTHUSIASM OVER

One of the Bees very bright Young
men caustically refers to the trouble
in the Orient rs "a Filipino rabbit
drive" And that is about all there is
to 1T. .....
There is abPolutely no enthusiasm
over this warfare among the people
of the United States. And why
should there be? The Filipinos are
fighting for lands, for home, for coun
try, for Liberty. They may have mis-
taken the charitable aud humane pur
poses OF this Government and it may
be that they would be far better off
oven as freemen,l 1T they " oul'I lay down
their arms ard let the United States
untan !le the knot. At the same time
they do not think 20, and they GER
taiDl! have right to their opinion
and the privilege Of fighting for their
belief.
There is no Disgusting the fact that
thee is a great undercnrrent Of sym
patny for these Filipinos among the
people " the United States, people
who we're born in liberty'> cradle and
nursed Mt her altar, ind people who
believe that liberty is not the heri
tage OF one race or one nation.
Every true American hopes that
this warfarA in the Philippines will
soon he stopped, and that the unfor-
tunnte people Of those islInds will
emerge from the SEA of hl mished to
a newer and better freedom than they
ever before experienced.
Meanwhile, howe vel, the true A mer-
lean does not feel like throwing his
hat ~ the air because lot OF moor
and ignorant creatures, Battling for
what they believe to be their rights
AMI their liberties, are being put to
the sword like SO many rats in a cor
ner.--Sacramento Bee.

ODOM'S PRINCELY SALARY.
Seventeen-Year-Old Jockey Offered
$4,000 q Year and Fees.

NEW YORK, June 25.-Jockey George
Odom has an offer TO ride for William c.
Whitney next year and the two following
years at an annua salary Of $4,000, with an
additional fee of $50 for winning mounts
and $40 for losing mounts. No contract has
been signed. however, and no agreement has
been entered into. Odom has two other Of
fers, one from Green B.. Morris. acting for
j. B. Haggin. and the other from William
II. Clark. The amount of the salary offered
by Mr.. Whitney is not so remarkable as
the duration of the contract. In other years
jockeys have received as much as Sc. Ooo.
but since the race tracks have reduced their
purses and stakes to their present figures
owners have not felt that they were able
to retain jockeys at high salaries.
Odom is barely seventeen years old and
weighs eighty-seven pounds His father.

boy galloped horses for w. r. Burch until

Ing the greatest number of people. and. lust
at this time; the administration does not

City Attorney Kern. in discussing the mat
ter. said that the perplexing part of the
question Is that those people who are fight
plea that II Is a nuisance. and, strange to
say, none OF them lives close enough to the
ball park TO be affected by the games. Con-
tinuing, Mr.. Kern said that were II any OF
the residents of the immediate neighborhood
who were asking that the games be stopped,
one or the residents of Ohio street, Oriental
street or Arsenal avenue can be induced to
complain against the games.
Furthermore. several delegations have Wis
tied the city officials and represented that
they are workingmen who work all day,
see ball games and have no opportunity to
see them except on Sunday without leaving
their work and thereby losing part OF their
wages in addition to paying their way into
the ball grounds. Mr.. Kern is of the opinion
that, If 1t is desired TO stop the games on
complaint must be filed by some person
whose peace is disturbed or who is incon-
venienced by reason of the games being
played. A man living in North Indianapolis.
in the minds Of the city officials, could
hardly claim that the games annoyed him.
the games stopped and the residents of the
reighborhood where the games are played
will not complain of them, some other
charge must be made than that OF nuisance.
