vidual effort is helpless against such
strong rivals, and the natural right
of all persons to barter and trade IS
unnaturally restricted. The effort OF
these trusts is to control or monop-
Ollie. and these monopolies, when un-
restrained. seem to produce condl-
tions which bring about strikes ana
disorders. and disturb the business
affairs of the country.
Local Self-Covernment.
Local self-government, that comes
to us not as the gift OF the natlonal
government, but as the legitimate
outcome OF the reserve powers OF the
States and of the people, is the very
cornerstone OF our political struc-
ture and the best assurance OF liberty
regulated by law. 1t can only be
maintained by strict observance OF
the limitations OF the Federal constl-
tuition. The Democratic party has
always resisted, and will continue to
resist. the encroachment by its enc
mics upon the fundamental right OF
the people OF the several States. All
power comes from the people, and
should be surrendered only in the
interest of the people, and whenever
this power is used for selfish interest,
it is not only abuse, but usurpatlon.
Arbitration.
The declaration in the st. Louis
platform in favor of arbitration is
one that appeals to my sense OF fair
ness. Nations and States have en-
ployed to advantage this method OF
settling disputed questions. States
have invoked it's aid with good re-
suits, and individuals frequently have
resorted to it in adjusting questions
of differences. The Hague tribunal,
representing the sentiment of con-
citation, is the highest practical ex-
preston of intelligent thought on
this subject. The principles of arbi-
tration are the same whether gov
ernine in the great Court OF Nations
or applied in the affairs OF industrial
life. It's permanent establishment as
a part of the industrial system OF the
country, upon a basis of mutual con
sent of all parties to a controversy
would insure more friendly relations
between employer and employed. fol
the interest of the workingman AND
the employee is identical. 1t affords
a safe and equitable method of deter
mining differences that may arise
and has been called "a reasonable
natural mode" of settling such dis
putes. The spirit of arbitration is
kindred to love of law and order. Ii

Rae issue.

All lovers of their country must
deprecate the rehabilitation by the
Republican party of a disappearing
race issue, at a time when every
effort should be made to promote
rather than retard the progress
which was being made in the
States where slavery had existed, to-
ward kindlier relations between the
two races. The revival of this issue,
with all it's attendant evils, must of
necessity retard the development OF
the Southern States, whose people
are struggling manfully with condi-
tions left by the war, and seriously
interferes with the industrial progress
of both races.

Don C. Halls Tribute to the Canyon


 It is as if the elements above had at some time long past, attempted to carve way to the center of the earth, and had met with opposition from the forces within which be- ing released from their shoulder ing slumbers had given vent to their wrath, by belching forth huge masses of vari-colored rock and metal, tinting them with their chemical-laden breath, until they shown in every color of the rain bow-tossing them assunder-ar- ranging them in fantastic shapes seeming to glory in the havoc wrought-little dreaming that there was being formed one of the real awe-inspiring glories and wonders of the world. But finally in the midst of it all, came the soothing waters of the Colorado-cooling into submission, the heated elements until they receeded to the hidden depths below-seething, growing, grumbling, until their voices were hushed by the sound of ripping waters, as the grand Colorado flowed through this mighty chasm on its course to the sea. Wonderful in- Iced are the works of nature-the hand work of God.

early TO Tom Lotus. but his duty with
the Tigers viii probably keep him longer
than usual, but even If he reports here
at the last moment everybody Will be
satisfied
The work OF young Cassidy is the
most gratifying Of the new lot Of Sena-
tors. Although not quite as clean a
fielder as Charlie Moran. he is much
faster and has proven himself TO be "a
regular Jennings as far as gameness
is concerned. From the reports of the
players he looks good.
Charlie Moran is still coaching and
practicing with the Georgetown team,
and Will probably beat Cassidy out for
shortstop. however Charlie is without
doubt as clean a fielder as there is
in the game with the exception
Of Freddie Parent. and most critics
predict good season Tor him this year.
In a practice game with Georgetown
University last spring Charlie hurt his
ankle and ever afterWard he was Ieery
in covering the second sack. Tom
LOTUS. however, thinks the George

and If he does. he should show greatly
improved form.
Next week the Senators will probably
play their first exhibition games Of the

GOLFERS PREPARE
FOR THE SEASON
Three Local Links Are Put
in Shape.
TO LENGTHEN THE COURSES
Livelier Balls Now in Use Give Infe-
riOr Players a Big
Advantage
TO LENGTHEN THE COURSES

1t is improbable that any change viii
be made in either the Chevy Chase.
Washington, or Columbia golf courses
before the end Of the fall season. All
three have under consideration plans to
lengthen their courses, but If the plans
are carried out at all it Will not be be-
ception of the Chevy Chase Club.
The distance between the holes on all
the courses is now a little too short On
a three-hOle a good golf player can
make it in about two strokes and a
half. while it takes a fairly good player
about three strokes. The good man has
to take a half stroke at the end, and
the bad players can do tust as well by
mAking three hard drives All Of the
duss in the United States, IT is thought,
win soon lengthen their courses on ac-
count of the livelier balls. which have
increased the length OF the drives.
Getting Courses Into Shape.
The season opens here on May 5, s,
and 2 with the Chevy Chase ar-Iual
spring tournament. Already work has
been begun on the Chevy Chase. Column
bia and Washington courses, and the
green's are fast getting into good shape.
They have been thoroughly rolled, and
by next week the players viii be out for
their preliminary practice Of the sea-
son. Donald Ball. professional Of the
Washington Golf Club, Is superintend-
ing the work Of getting his course in
shape for the spring. and Mr. Douglass
Is looking after the Chevy Chase course.

the champion was forced back, and could
not get a chance 10 land his most eff

Result Unsatisfactory.
Corbett has made the howl that it was
a case OF an outsider against a native
son.. Tor that reason the fight was
unsatisfactory. There is no doubt that
the native SON. business counts for a
great deal on the Coast. but Graney's
reputation as a square referee is such
that il can hardly be presumed that he
would allow local feeling to influence
him in his decision in such an important
bout.
CCrbett naturally challenged his CON
oueror. and it is to be hoped that the
boys viii get together in the near fu
ture and see who is really the better
man.
There is one thing about the Denver
bOy-whcn he was champion he was al
ways willing to fight. and for the sake Of
the game Britt should show an equal
willingness to defend his title. Eddie
Harlon, Dave Sullivan, and Britt were
met by Corbett in twelve months in big
fights, TO say nothing Of six-rOund af
