p. II. S. Champions OF Northern Indiana

The rub game came off at Laporte
June 10, which cleared up the record
for P. H. S. Now we sing "Laporte
has LoSt?" at the tune of 6 to 3.
We made the same flying trip as be-
fore, leaving Plymouth on the noon
train and returning at 5:15.
The game was crisp and interesting
at every stage and was played in one
hour and 80 minutes. Clarke, La
porte's pitcher was in good form and
pitched some low outs which puzzled
our boys fur awhile, but it didn't last
long.
Miller pitched for P. II. S. and did
it right as usual. The L. p. H. S.
bleachers saw that something must be
done to rattle Miller. They then pro-
ceeded 60 give Charlie the roast. But
instead of an ''eaSy mark" they found
pusher.
From this time on Miller applied
the dutch" and handed out some of
the fiercest drops ever seen on an anna
teur field.
Leonhart played the game taking
in high fly and speeding to second
caught a base runner for a double.
Carvey was up from Perrysburg where
he has been heaving stone for the
past week. He was tanned and ''ready
fer Market" and he certainly showed
a stone-heaver' steam in his base
throwing.
North was out of the game on &C.
count of sickness and Hubert Tanner
was substituted. Although this was
"Scrubby S" first game he played like
a veteran hero He is sure hitter,
naturally, and never loses his head,
He will make a star on next years

Compromising With the Devil.

Relative to the proposed change by
the Methodist general conference of
the discipline relative to dancing, etc.,
the Bardolph News gives the follow
ing: "As the matter stands at present
the indulgence in such diversions is
positive ATTRACTION of the law of the
church for which the offender NAV be
disciplined. 1t is argued by the lib
erals that these restrictions keep the
young people out of the church. 1t
is proposed by those desiring change
to make the prohibition against such
indulgences simply advisory, instead
OF mandatory, leaving the indulgences
to the conscience of the individual.
This smacks strongly of a compromise
with the devil 1t is sad common
tary on the christian religion that it
has become necessary to trim its prac-
tees to suit the whims of its adher-
ents. The same spirit is evident in
the growing tendency to ignore the
inspiration Of the Bible. About the
next concession will be a suggestion
thai one MAJ be his own interpreter
OF the scriptures and accept only such
portions thereof as he may deem prop
err Truly, we are drifting away from
the faith Of our fathers And whose
is the fault? Not the Voltaires, the
Paines or the Ingersolls, but the pres
emit day theological professors and the
ministers of our big wealthy, aristo-
cratic churches who pander to their
membership oy seeking smooth and
pleasant paths for the journey TO the
ks gdom.'

Deafness Cannot Be Cured.

the inflammation can be taken out and

On behalf of the p. Fl. S. Base Ball
Team l desire to thank the people of
this city for their hearty support and
patronage in various ways. We have
demonstrated that under favorable
conditions first class High School
team can be worked up; one that re-
fleets credit upon the city. We feel
that our successful season has engen-
dered greater spirit of loyalty to the
High School. The graduation OF the
class of '04 will deprive the team OF
some good players. yet we are conf
dent that the crimson mantle will
fall on more worthy shoulders next
year. We extend special thanks te
DIR. G.. R. Reynolds for his kindness In
donating the ball diamond at the fail
grounds; and hope he is satisfied that
we can play ball enough to win occa.

Lam candidate for the Republican
nomination for governor-of Minnesota
and respectfully solicit the support
of all Republicans and my fellow-citi-
zens generally.
No man is big enough to- dictate
platform for the Republican party of
Minnesota. The party through it's
representatives in convention assem-
bled, will formulate a platform upon
which will squarely stand. The COM
bined wisdom of the Republican party
of the State is better than the iudg-
ment of any individual member of the
party.
I heartily endorse and approve the
platform adopted by the Republican
State convention of 1902.
There are certain other things which
I believe in and will practice, advo-
cate and recommend if I am chosen
governor: s,ys
The State board of control should
be absolutely divorced from politics
and the affairs of the board should be
conducted on business principles on
broad guage lines with due regard to
humanitarian features; no niggardlv
policy should be pursued.
One of my cardinal beliefs is non
interference of the executive with the
legislative branch Of the government,
and the appointive officers should
eschew politics and devote their ener-
gies to the performance of their official
duties. Those who serve the State
best will serve me best.
The State should make liberal pro-
vision for the reclamation Of it's
swamp lands.
81
I pledge myself to observe and en-.
force the law which gives to ex-Union
soldiers the preference to appointive
offices.
pledge myself to fearless and
impartial enforcement of the laws upon
our statute books, particularly those
which guard the interests of the people
from the encroachments of corporate
greed and aggression. Every citizen
is equal under the law and should en-
JOY equal privileges and equally share
the burdens.
In conclusion, think my record in
the legislature and in the State audi
tors office, which is am OPEN shook,
should be guarantee thatsI Will dis
