LATE DOPE
Henderson Pays the Membership
Fee.
Marion, ILL.,, Wants Some Baseball
Excitement-Cairo's New Pitcher.

The Henderson baseball club on Sun
day wired its membership fee and
mailed a reserve list of players to
Secretary Farrell, the last date for
reservation expiring today, says the
Cairo Bulletin. This move on the part
of Henderson does not necessarily
imply that Henderson will be in this
or any other league next season, but
the move was made for speculative
purposes, as the drafting OF some OF
their players will pay a handsome
premium on the investment of the SIS
membership fee, and the Henderson
people alio being aware that Evans
vile will be in the league, and not
having any players reserved, will
necessarily purchase some of them.
Very gratifying reports have been
received from Marion regarding that

others from two to twenty. As the

seems that the mischief is done by an
animal.

city's desire to be a member of the
league. When the subject was
preached several prominent business
men agreed TO subscribe to $4,000
stock. The press took up the sub
jeot and the result ia no longer in
doubt. Marion is an ideal town for
a member of this league, being al
mirably geographically situated and
being IN the center of populous
district within radius of eight
miles inhabited by fully 25 600 peo-
pie The entire country is threaded
by electric railways aud the ball
yard will be easy of aocess Marion
favored the idea of paying the visit
ing team of $40 or even $50 for
each ana every game, rain or shine,
thus compelling every city of being
self-supportiug. This city will sur
prise many By its attendance.

Two of the three men killed in the

to have boarded the Illinois Central

at appears that Connolly and the
negro boarded the through freight at
Paducah aud when the train stopped
here, young Emmett Thompson got on
IL to go homo after spending the day
here at the carnival.
at is believed that he got ON an oil

the train reached Brush Greek, they
uncoupled the car from the regular
train, thinking il would stop as IL
went mp the grade, and that they
would get off with young Thompson
and go with hirl TO his home several
miles in the country from there. 1t
Is believed that the train telescoped

Tn. "Imperi.l" posey-M.n.

The country has outgrown the witch
craft frenzy, the spirit-rapping frauds,
the blue-glass cure, the greenback and
free silver crazes. and it is rapidly re-
covering from other more or less harmful
fads. These forms of popular enthusi-
asm having had violent and almost un-
obstructcd sway FOR Il time, have, like
certain acute diseases, made their run,
departed and left not a wreck behind"
But the Bogey-man, Imperialism,
haunting but few, and not seriously in
convoniencing even that few, stays longer
with us than any of his wild-eyed and
more commonplace brother phantoms, de-
lusions and bugaboos.
Washington was accused of wish to
create an empire, and was roundly abus-
ed during his Presidency for his alleged
ambition. He was described as n men-
ncc to the country he had fought to make
into nation. He only smiled and went
on his glorious way.
Washington, to begin with. and since
Washington every President of powerful,
firm and just mind who has ever sat in
Imperialism" Jackson. Lincoln. Grant,
C!evclnnd, Harrison, Mckinley and
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS every one of these
Presidents the same wild, foolish and
groundless cry has been raised.
1t is the cry of babies and weaklings
in evil government. not the utterance
of men of experience and sense. How
long will it be before we hear the last
howl over the long lived Bogey-man,
"Imperinlism?'
The Springfield herald., 1904-10-21
Nobody Scared.

Parker says il he is elected he will
cut off the old soldiers age disability
pension by revoking Order IS. But the
old soldiers don't seem to be the least
bit scared!
Parker says he is in favor of proceed
ing with due diligence" in constructing
the Panama canal, but he thinks the
Roosevelt way was a source of regret
to many" But Roosevelt is not trou-
bled.
And Parker says that the management
of our foreign affairs has excited serious
apprehension" in some quarters. But
the American people are not among the
upprehensive.
Then. Parker is in a bad way about
imperialism" but the citizens of the
United States only smile when they hear
that word
Also. Parker is distressed over the
poor Filipinos, but the Filipinos continue
to learn to read. write and cypher, while
they live on three meals day and talk

The constitution of the United States
requires an election for President and

desirable or not.
There is reason to believe that large
majority of the American people do not

1t were a matter of choice with them no
election would be held this year. A ma

Who wants change? Not the farm
ers, for they never were more prosper
GUS or better satisfied than they are at
present. Not the business men, for busi-
ness is satisfactory. Not manufacturers,
for American manufacturers are outstrip-
ping those of all other countries. Not
wnge-earners, for there nre more men
employed at good wages to-day than ever
before in the history of the country. Not
rnilrond men, for the transportation busi-
ness has grown enormously during the
last few years and still gives promise of
future growth. In short, no large class
of oui varied population can be named
bur has good reason to desire a con-
tihuance of present conditions. If 1t
were not for the constitutional require
mert the people would have preferred
that no election took place this year.
The only exceptions are the Democrat
ic party leaders and those unfortunate
people who have not the sense to let
well enough alone.
