Well Said, Mr.. Root.

An interview with former Secretary
Of War Root since he, has returned ia
he practice Of law. quote, him a. de-
nuuncing the way the American bar
too frequently loses sight of vital facts
in making careful analysis of technic-
alitie~. Root commended for the swift
la~certainment OF facts
Thar j. just what this country needs.
1t need, swift ascertainment of facts
and swift application of justice in ac-
curdance with those facts.
Practice II law seems ~ have Diet
eriorated in many ways while at the
same time advancing in many ways.
Never did the practice of law delve
50 deep into tcchnicalitie> IL it does
today.
Has this not been carried to Il dan
geroUs extreme? II undoubtedly has.
This has been demonstrated in a num-
Der of criminal cases OF national in
terest recently in which defendants
generally recognized a. guilty and
with guilt shown by the evidence. have
been turned loose, acquitted and eX-
honerated. as il were. on thread
bare technicalities which had little
or no bearing on the guilt or inno-
cence of the defendants 50 far "a
the crimes themselves were concern
ed
If -Ir. Root lifts his hand and voice
against the injustice Of the applica-
ton Cf the technicalitN and if he in
tereSts others and steps are taken to
eliminate this injustice to justice. Il
great good wiz have been accomplish
ed for this country.
1t i not probable that Root will
perform his great service To his cuun-
try. but he has called attention to
the abuse of the law and the abuse of
justice in Il manner emphatic and
commensurate.

LincoIn'aIloe Cabin.

In the search for Abraham Lincoln ;
log cabin birthplace it transPires that
the materials of which ii was con-
structed are stored in a building AT
College Point. New York City. 1t was
taken there for exhibition. and. as
usual in such instances. afterwards
tossed aside, when it ceased to be
profitable. In the same way John
Browns fort" at Harper's Ferry was
taken to Chicago and nobody knows
what has become of il. Libby prison
was another historic landmark torn
down at Richmond and shipped to
Chicago. where IL was failure for
money making purposes. Its bricks
are scattered TO the four winds.
There are side-show icunoclastS ana
vandalS who would tear up Washing
tons tomb and cart it to fair ana
exhibit il if they dared. Max ORe.i.
in his book on America. >ays an Amer
lean tried To buy the Shakes peare
home AT Stratford to bring to this
country. and that the proposition call
ed forth great Indignation in England.
IT quite destroys the associations and
the sentimental flavor of houses and
objects which. by their character.
should remain immOvable. to trans
plant them from their native soil! The
Boston elm. on the Common. when il
stood there. was AN object of venera-
ton. but to dig il mp and carry il
away Il thousand miles To be looked
at would have been PROCLAMATION.

Worse than an alarm of fire at night
is the braSsy cough of Group. which
sounds like the chiIdren's death knell.
and il means death unless something
i done quickly. Foley's Honey and
Tar never fails TO give instant relief
and quickly cures the worst forms of
Group. Mrs. y. L. Cordier. of Man

a bottle of Foley's Honey and Tar
the first dose gave quick relief and

Talk of Organizing College Team
to Play Wabash and Rose
Poly Teams.
FOOTBALL MEN ON TEAM
Special TO the indianapolis Journal.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
LAFAYETTE, Ind, Jan. 1l-Polo as a
college sport seems destined to some day
occupy an important place in university
athletics, judging from the hold ii has taken
on Purdue students. At a recent meeting
Of student polo enthusiasts nearly fifty cam
didates for places on the proposed univer-
sity team presented themselves. Those at
the meeting were unanimously in favor Of
putting polo on the same basis other ath-
letic games at the university, and a COM
mittee was named to bring the matter to
the attention of Athletic Manager Cults and
the members Of the faculty. That there is
plenty of material in Purdue for a winning
polo team is certain. and unless all signs
fail a representative team will soon be or
ganized to play under the college colors.
Charles s. Rauh, of indianapolis, the origi-
nal promoter of the polo idea at Purdue,
was made temporary manager. and is now
trying out men at the City Coliseum with a
view to picking out team. 1t Is Planned
to secure a coach and drill the team. the
same as the football and baseball teams.
There is also similar plan on foot at Wa
School, and games between Purdue and the
teams of these other schools will be ar
ranged There is little doubt that the polo
team at Purdue will eventually come under
the direction Of the Athletic Association.
Several baseball. football and track men
among those who will try for the polo

P. 7. POWERS A LEADER
OF EASTERN LEAGUE
Club Owners Recognized the Fact
that He Led Them Through
the War.
MINOR LEAGUE POWER

NEW YORK, Jan. 1L-There was some
talk during the last few months of a move
ment to depose Z. T. Powers from the presi-
dency of the Eastern League The trouble
began with a couple of dsgruntled man
ayers, and ended where it started. The
club owners of the Eastern League recog-
nized the fact that President Powers's
executive ability has guided the Eastern
through many a stormy sea, and he will
again be the chief executive of that or
ganiZation.
Mr.. Powers is one of the recognized lead
ers Of minor baseball In addition TO being
president of the Eastern League, he is also
at the head of the National Association of
Minor Leagues. He put the Eastern on a
good basis, and the fact that two
of the cities did not draw the average at
tendance last year caused the club owners
TO talk Of electing another man to his place.
AS the head of the National Association Of
Minor Leagues Mr.. Powers was instru-
mental in bringing about the national
agreement for the protection of the minors
against the raids of the major leagues. In
case of merger OF the American Associa-
ton and Eastern League cities IL is quite
probable that Mr.. Powers would be chosen
president Of the new organization.
