IT is the duty of every democrat
in Hardeman County, who feels an
interest in the success and welfare
of his party, to attend the conven-
ton to be held here on the 3rd of
May. Too often have the people
absented themselves from conven-
tions and allowed politicians TO run
them in their own selfish interests.
See to it, democrats, that this con-
vention is controlled by the people.
Now is the time to assert your
rights.

EVERY word of the following,
from the Carroll County Democrat,
is true: "The boss in politics
should become a back number.
Nearly all the trouble that political
parties get into grows out of the
work of bosses. They are disturb
ers and care nothing for the good of
the party if the success of the party
interferes with their plans or with
their success in manipulating party
work. They are generally in pol
tiles for what they can get out of it,
and they try to use the party as an
instrument to further their own sell
fish plans"

ShOtt-SpOtt Mill.

Two c)lored men, one named Shotts
Turner, of Humb ldt, and the other
named Spotts, of Garnett, fought
Sunday just over the Woodson
county line for $25 side. The sport.
ing fraternity from all the neighb Dor.
ing country collected and watched
the mill, which resulted in victory
for Shotts IN the fourth round when
he landed on the exact spot on Spotts'
jaw which put the latter to sleep
The fight by rounds is handed IN by
an authority as fjllowe:
Round one: SPOTS and Shotts shake
hands, grin and take their positions
with their bodies well back and their
heads prominently pretruded so that
any chance blows could land there.
AS Spotts' head was the larger the
betting was mostly in his favor in
this round.
Round two: The fighters back off
and make a run for each other, but
miss and each, upset by the impetus
of his run, falls to the ground and
rolls 30 far that time was called
just as they got back to the ring.
Round three: At this point SPOTS
insinuated that his opponent was
half shot and the two got into a dis.
pute which brought them to the
verge of blows, but friends separated
them.
Round four: Both danced around
each other, and gust of wind COM
fng along deposited grain OF dirt in
Shott's eye, binding him so that
he made mistake and hit
SPOTS. SPOTS went down and out.
Shotts got the money. The crowd
dispersed.
This is the second fight these two
have had an! al ways the same result,
quick end and charges that the
fight was fixed. His friends now say
that SPOTS was drunk and that it
was chance blow. II he was
drunk, he should be barred from the
ring, lest he bring disgrace on that
gentlemanly art.

THE BALL GAME
The Humboldt Club Came up Mon
day and Went up Against us.

The ball game Monday should
have been better attended but prob
ably that is the fault of the manage
ment for nearly everyone says when
questioned as TO why they did not 20
that they knew nothing 1T. And
that lie probably the reason there was
not crowd there. A few hand bills
scattered around over the street
doesn't advertise anything in lola
any more. But 1t was a good game
of ball and we trust the remaining
games will be well patrenIzed.
Pop Davis was In the box for lola
and he was in fine trim. He had
perfect control of the ball and could
have shut Humboldt out If it had not
been for the two remaining gamei
In the first inning Davis struck two
men out and the other one flew out to
Hester. Iols made two runs on errors
by the visitors and thus the game
started off with Iolaites feeling very
well thank you.
The second inning Davis struck two
more men out and Pomp who some
how got a safe hit got caught at
second thus ending the visitors second
inning Vanaman, Iola's second
baseman hit pop-up and nobody
went after it so he got to first. Gard
struck out but Pop hit safe and Vana-
man who hadn't been sleeping on
any Of the bases scored bringing Iola's
total up to three. Hester hit q fly
and Davis was doubled retiring the
eide.
During the third, fourth and fifth
innings neither side scored and the
game was intensity interesting but 1t
WAS all right because lola already
had enough scores to win her the
game. THAT is from an lola mans
point OF vIew.)
But in the sixth lola opened up the
can and cut two more scores. Riggs
hit three bagger. Vsnaman followed
with a safe hit and Riggs scored
and Gard followed with q hit and
Vanamsn scored. Humboldt did not
score this inning. In fact she hadn't
scored up'to-dste.
But in the seventh Humboldt
scored a run, and many an aching
heart that wanted to see shut-out
lost interest in the game. This is the
way 1t happened. The first man
struck out. Schools hit safe but was
caught at second. But Pomp who
never expects to hit anything and
who 10 never expected to, got a two
base hit and the next man up got an
other, letting him score. Oh 1t was
awful. 1t made the boys feel bad
too, and when they came in, Just to
cinch the game, they pounded out
four runs, bringing the total up to
nine. And they might as we'll have
made 1t thirty because they had to
play horse between the bases in order
to get out. After this the game was
uninteresting and quite number of
the crowd left.
In the eighth Humboldt was pre-
sented with another goose egg, MAX
ing total of seven which the lola
boys generously gave them while
lola took two runs as pay for the egg,
making her total eleven.
Humboldt was allowed to score
again in the ninth so that they would
not be too much discouraged, and
thus ended the first game of the
season.
The lola boys put up good game
all the way through and there is no
doubt that II lola wants to have a
ball team here this sum-
mer she has some excellent material
to start on. Why don't somebody
take hold of the matterP

Ru.sia and Persia,

The announcement that Russia has guar
anteed Persias new loan of 22,5oo, ,0o'
roubles-amounting to approximately SILL
500.CDO-is taken abroad to mean that the
government at st. Petersburg has clinched
its influence over the shah in preparation
for the long delayed advance to the Indian
ocean. According to the dispatches this
transaction virtually gives Russia a first
mortgage on Persia's income, and control
over all her customs houses save those on
the gulf. This exception is significant The
gulf customs are closest to the English
trade while the northern customs posts
lie in close relations to the trade with
Afghanistan and Russia. The value of
Afghanistan as a buffer between Russia
and Persia Is not to be considered in view
of the fact that there is actual contact be-
tween the two sovereignties west of the
CASPIAN.
The manner in which Russia thus ac-
quires predominance over Persia is charac-
teristic of recent Muscovite expansion The
government at ST. Petersburg does not
move violently, but steadily. craftily, sure
ly. The development of Siberia has been
along this line of insidious growth. Once IL
lay a great barren waste, inhabited only
by nomadic tribes and exiled criminals
stamped the world over with an evil repute
