Manager Fred Doe on Prospects of New
England League.

England League.
There Is still considerable talk being
made regarding the outlook for profess
sional baseball in Portland the coming
summer. Portland has not had q team
for two years and 1t is now thought that
the time is ripe for another club. This
city has always done as we'll as any city
of its size and contains a large number Of
enthusiasts of the national game. All
that seems to be needed Is for somebody
to 60 ahead and make preparations. Man
ager Fred Doe OF the Lewiston polo
| team, who has been actively connected
as player and manager OF baseball
teams for the last fifteen yeArs,is very en-
thusiastio over the prospects for baseball
this season and for a revival OF the New
England league. az can't see why every
thing Is not all right, said Manager Dos
while In Portland with mis- Lewiston po-
10 team Friday evening. ~ know that
We can he depended upon to make good
down In Lewiston where 1 have positive
assure noes that 1 can raiss all or the
money that is needed to place q team In
tins New England league. The people in
Lewiston are manifest Ing their old time
enthusiastic interest In baseball. How
| is IL here in Portlandf We are anxiously
waiting down In Lewiston to see what
step Portland Is willing to take. Port
land should come to time and Join hands
with her old rival. or the other cities
that used 10 compose the New England
r. nd
willing to go ahead and so are Lowell and
Manchester. There are other cities, too.
| that would be all right. on hand i can
mention Nashua as among this number
This certainly ought to be good season
for the game In New England. The
people, as everybody knows in Portland,
have been used to seeing pretty stiff ar
tiele OF the national game, some OF the
star players in the country having been
produced In this league. This can happen
again Just az well az not for we would
have no troubls in getting as good play
ers as we used 10 have. Down In Nor
witch managed a team last season which
won the pennant in the Connecticut
league. i can sign today as good men n
those that had with me on that cham.
pionship club. There are a lot Of promis
ing young players who are waiting for
the opportunity to be developed. This
matter should be taken hold OF at once
so that we can get an early start.''
Another man who is sanguine over
the outlook for the game in New England
this season IL Thomas IL. Connolly, the
well known umpire and polo referee.
"The New England league is about the
best minor league that has ever bsen in
ths field,' he said Friday night. New
England used to turn out In good mum
bers to support the game and am of the
opinion that the people would do the same
thing this season. Portland and Lewiston
for several years were represented By
strong clubs and some fine players could
be secured for this season, know .

terrain Of How 1t Became
Truly Consecrated.

For many years Father Boyle was
one of the most prominent and popular
Catholic clergymen in Washington,
where he had a great reputation as a
wit. Many of his most intimate friends
were Professionals and members of the
Protestant clergy. A few months be-
fore his death he erected q missionary
chapel down by the navy yard and
bought at a junk shop an old bell which
had been discarded by one Of the Pres
byterian churches. He sent the bell to
q foundry in Georgetown and had sew.
eral inches of metal pared off the rim.
Having thus got rid of q crack the
harsh and discordant tones of the bell
became short and sweet. Meeting a
Presbyterian parson not long after,
Father Boyle called his attention to
the change and the latter could scarce
~ believe it was the same bell. "What
in the world did youd do with that bell?''
inquired the Presbyterian pastor. "to
cause such a change in the tone?". 1--WE
blessed it and blessed it until we got
the Presbyterian devil out Of it," re.
torted Father Boyle, land then it
sounded all right"

state management of rum dispensing.
Allintoxicants were to be sold by state
agents in bottles containing not less
than half a pint. The salooninte1ests
opposed the measure violently but the
governor won. In 1895 Tillr1an was
elected to the United States senate.
His term expired last March, but he
had previously been elected for a Sec
ond term of six years.
In the United States senate he: soon
became a commanding figure, partly
on account of his ability, but more par
ticularly because of his radical ideas
and his violent, uncompromising and
bitter attacks on President Cleveland
and his cabinet. Very few Of his coy
leagues agreed with him, but all
listened to his diatribes with interest.
When William Jennings Bryan was
nominated for president in 1896 great
pressure was brought to bear to in
duce Senator 'Til1man to become the
Nebraska mans running mate, but in
vain. The South Carolinian knew a
good thing when he had it, and he pre-
ferred to be the boss of his state in
stead Of the tail to a national kite.
During the last session of congress
Tillman was the senate leader of the
unreconcilable southern anti-annexa-
tionists. He denounced the admins
tration for the purchase of the Phil
ippines, for the Plat amendment to,
the Cuban bill and discriminating leg.
tislation auainst Porto Rico. He was
high priest of Observation-Disclosures
follow-the-fag"e element, and has stood
by his guns even since the United
States supreme court has decided
against his ideas. He believes withhis
friend Bryan that the supreme court
decision mot only declares that con-
gress is greater than the constitution
which created 1.-THE creature greater
than the creator-but it denies the ne.
cessity for a written constitution"
So much for Tillman. And now a
word about his rival, John L. McLaurin,
junior senator from South Carolina.
He is everything that his opponent is
not, although at one time the w were
allies. McLaurin was born in 1860, and
was admitted to the bar at the age of
%. In 1890 he was elected to the state
legislature. A year later he was made
attorney general, and in 1892 was elect
ed to congress and reelected three
times. On the death of Senator Joseph
HI. Earle, in 1897, he was appointed to
fill the vacancy, and when the legisla-
ture assembled was chosen to fill the

severe illness soon afterward, which
kept him an invalid for two years and
resulted in the loss of his left eve. He
married before he was 20 years old,
and now has six children. He began
his political career in 1886, at the age
of 80. At that time Wade Hampton
and his so-called "old democracy"
were in the saddle and ruling things
with a high hand. Tillman, a radical
by inclination and training, opposed
the conservative leaders and finally
succeeded in ousting them root and
branch. He realized that South Caro-.
lima prosperity depended in a large
measure upon the progress of the az.
ricultural population. He became a
potent factor in the affairs of the
Farmers alliance whose members
nominated him for governor in 1890
After one of the most exciting cam
paigns in the history of the south he
also secured the democratic nomina
ton, and in November was elected gov
n and reelected in 1892.
An old-timer. who knows Tillma,
like q book, said to the writer tina

ballot box will restore permanent
political health in the proud old COM
monwealth.
Tillman and McLaurin, who repre-
sent South Carolina in the United
States senate, were bosom friends at
one time. Both were elected as dem
ocrats and both have always posed as
typical southern patriots. Whether
personal jealousy is at the bottom OF
the feud, which eliminated in the now
historic debate at Gaffney, on May rs,
friends of the two politicians are not
prepared to say. All the voters know
all they car to knows that at
that time the senatorial rivals con.
cluded to tender their designations, tc
take effect November 1 next. In the
interim they were to conduct a cam
paign for reelection on the issues ad'
vocated by them.
Gov. insolvency declined to accept
the designations on the grounds thai
he considered the people of the state
entitled to one year of peace and free
dom from political battles and bitter
and that a campaign this year
would be a calamity to the state. As
an additional reason he suggested
that, "any disturbance of the harmony
of the people in their work for the ad
vancement of the material prosperity
of the state might result in retardins
progress"
Upon reflection Senator McLauri1

in his deductions; but Senator Tillman

owes responsibility to none but the
sovereign people of the state" Later
however, he also recanted and with.
drew his resignation.
Senator Tillman is one Of the quaint.
est products of American political life.
He was born in Edgefield county, s.. c..
August II, 1s47. His father was q

states held 100 slaves. Young Tillmau

%unexpired term, which ends March 4,
1908.
Instead of standing by Tillman the
junior senator assumed a noncommit-
tai attitude. Although elected as an
o~ut-and-out silver man, he was in IA
0 of letting the question of bimetal-
lism die a natural death. Instead of
c%hampioning anti-annexation, he spoke
in favor of charging the American
sphere of influence. He eve went so
far as to say that protection was not
an unmixed evil. He called himself a
Commercial democrat" anxious for
the upbuilding of the political and
material interests of his state. Incl
dentally he made some uncomplimen-
tary illusions to what he considered
the mulish propensities of his senior
colleague who, like another famous
~southerner, "had never known any.
thing and had learned nothing SINCE"
Then the fractional fight began in
earnest. Both sides lined up their
partisans and concluded to let the peo-
pie of the state decide their quarrel.
While some approve Gov. McSweeney's
actions in the premises, others think he
should have accepted the designations
and appointed other men to the vacant
senatorships. Those who take NJ stock
in either of the contestants-and their
number is greater than is generally
supposed-would have. liked to see a
free-for-all canvass. They point to the
Conkling-Platt eposide whose ending
proved a genuine surprise to every.
body. Senator Roscoe Conkling and
Senator Thomas O. Plat, the former
one of the most astute politicians OF
his generation, resigned their seats to
show their disapproyal of the repub-
lican national executive and applied to
the people of New York for a vindica-
ton. Both we're sure of reelection, but
when the votes of the assembly had
been counted they were statesmen
without a job.
The "a plague on both your houses
element thinks that South Carolina
might perhaps have repeated history
by RELOCATING both Tillman and Nc
Laurin and electing men acceptable tc
everybody.
But in his capacity of an impartial
outside observer the writer is inclined
to venture the prediction that South
Carolina would have stood by4Tillman

upon him as their particular friend
the workingmen hail him as theil
