Scranton Bill Coughlin was happy boy
last night as he had tore off a double and
a single-quite an exhibition for the clever
lad. Coughlin has been shy on base hits
of late. and it has hurt his playing.
McFarland'S home-run drive in the ninth

Jones had quite a record at the bat, four

Umpire Jack Sheridan's work since he has
been in Washington has been of the very
best quality, the kicking in consequence
being reduced to minimum. When Sheri-

PuLL1AM ON CONSOLIDATION.
National League President is Willing
to Retire for Good Of Game.

Harry Clay Pulliam. president of the Ma
tionaI League, whose administration to date
has been competent and impartial, has
given out the following statement regarding
the proposed amalgamation Of the National
and American base ball leagues:
IF the majority of the National League
club owners desire consolidation of In
terests with the American League 1t meets
with my hearty approval; and if this can
be brought about only by the election of
Mr.. Johnson as head of the combined Or
ganizatons will gladly cooperate to that
end. My tenure of Office is for only one
year and expires next December. and at
that time 1 will gladly efface myself from
the base ball map Or, il MI Herrmann's
views are those of the National League ana
the occasion for consolidation is urgent
l will willingly facilitate matters by re-
signing at any time before my term of office
expires. I accepted the Office of president
of the National League only at the solicit
tation Of the club owners, and my only de-
sire and object has been to serve the best
interests of the National League; and If the
best interest of the National League lie in
consolidation with the American League
1 will gladly cooperate to that end
In my brief career as president L have
tried to elevate the game. have gone in for
clean base ball, and am willing to quit at
any time and be judged by my record.
Il regret very much. however. that this
talk of consolidation has been advanced in
mid-season, as l fear it will be fatal to the
best interests of both organizations during
the remainder of the playing season. 1t
brings into prominence the politics of the
game and sacrifices the artistic or playing
department. From now on the politicians
will have control of the diamond and the
players be sent to the background. If a
consolidation is to take place. it can't come
any too soon to end this state Of affairs"
John 7. Brush. president of the New York
Nationals is back from the west. II am
satisfied with present conditions" he said
In New York yesterday. Whenever any
body mentioned consolidation to Ban john
son or to anybody else who was boosting
the American League it was like Haunting
q red flag at q bull.
'JohnsOn's corner stone has been that
there was room in this country for two big
leagues, and it's rather queer to hear talk
of consolidation. ostensibly by the American
League leader

MUST GIVE UP PARTY
Labor Leader Advises indie.
pendent Political Action.

Independent political action by Or
sanized labor will be the programme
which will be proposed by Secretary
William e. McEWen, of the Minnesota
State Federation of Labor, at a meeting
of the executive board of that organi-
cation which is to be held in Minneap-
oils today.
"Workingmen must vote their ideas
into practice if they ever expect to get
their rights" said Mr.. McEwen last
night, when interviewed by a repre-
sentative of T h Globe.
Yes, 1 shall advocate today that
Workingmen-orga nized labor-act in
dependently of their party. 1 shall
propose that they use their organiza-
lions through political channels to OBJ
tain what they have tried to obtain in
other ways.
Il know that this sounds radical.
But my experience as a labor advocate
has taught me that if the laboring man
is to secure fair treatment he must
make his political influence felt. And
believe that the only way he can
achieve that end is to go into politics
for himself.
Moreover, 1 believe that organized
labor can force recognition of the
rights of the workingmen if they will
act together.
There is glazing instance right
now of the failure of worlingmen to
secure their fair dues solely because
OF their failure to act together 1 refer
TO the flour mill workers strike They
should have secured recognition and
have been given all that they demand
ed long ago. They may yet win. But
II organized labor had stood with them
If organized labor had been prepared
to back them up with cold cash--they
would have won out before now.
I'VE must accept conditions as we
find them, of course. But if I should
be chosen as secretary of the State
Federation of Labor for another year
] viii insist that 100000 be raised and
placed in the treasury of the State
Federation as a defense fund
what will be done with the money ?
1t will be used, if 1 have anything to
say about it, to fight just such battles
as the flour mill workers are wagine
today.
but, in the long run, 1 am convinced
strikes will not win the wage workers
their rights.
Their only hope is in political ac-
ton, and that is the plan which I shall
suggest today, and that is the plan
which l hope to see organized labor
adopt"
Mr.. McEwen is well known as a
labor leader. He is an alderman in his
home city, Duluth, and was elected
from ward which has a preponder-
ance of labor votes. The action of the
executive board of the State Fedora
ton of Labor will be watched with
much interest.
