An anti-pass plank is sure to

mittcd to be of great influence in

Our law makers should oc under
no greater obligation to one class

MAKING OF THE BASEBALL

This is the story of baseball. 1t

To every lover of the national
game the following facts will be
of interest:
Half century ago the game of
"rounders" gave a quick eye, Il
well-developed arm, a deep chest
and a feet foot to thousands of
Youngsters at recess
If some of the old "yarn balls
made by mothers and grandmOth
ers had been preserved they
would be priceless to-day as rel.
les. Those balls were "sWatted'
out of shape in the twinkling of
an eye.
Then kid" cover was sewed
over the yarn ball. 1t was cut in
eighths of circle, just as the
orange skin is divided. This was
promptly knocked off in the sec.

Harrison HarwOOd, of Natick
was lover Of the game. He had
"swatted" yarn into the cOmetlike
streamers and had batted kid
covers half way across the 'lOt.
In 1856 he designed two-piect
cover. 1t was like what is nov
called ''toggle" joint. In Other
words, there were two hemi
spheres of leather, connected b!
Il narrow isthmus, into which two
other hemispheres fitted snugly
This was the first step. But th'
construction made it a "dead" ball
There was no "life" in it. Never

The republicans of Nebraska
regard their brothers i'll
Kansas as the horrible example
and take warning from the polit-
ical situation in that state. The
republican convention in Topeka
permitted itself to be governed
and controlled entirely by rail-
road influence, Its nominees are
either men of putty or are recog'
nized railroad tools. The plat.
form says nothing and means
less. AS consequence the state
is in doubt, and this uotwith
standing the republicans carried
it at the last election by over ont
hundred thousand majority. Th,
republicans in this state SHOULD
favor absolute fairness to al
interests and should nominate A.;
ticket that will be an earneS
that all promises will be per
formed. This is the age of tn
square deal and that party
alone worthy of confidence whic
is in harmony with the age.

President Roosevelt is after
the Chicago federal Judge who
decided the beef trust cases in
favor of the individual members
on the question of immunity,
The president criticiSes the court
for its decision and says he hopes
that no other United States
Judge will follow the precedent
set. The judiciary is one of the
three branches of this govern
ment and has as great RESPONSE
bilities as either the executive or
legislative branch. While there
is no good reason why the presi-
dent should refrain from serving
notice on Judges how he want:
cases decided in the future, al
individual has as much right t
attempt to influence the decision
of court as the president has t
say that he hopes Judges will
decide cases the way he desires
This is not a one man govern
ment, it is a government of tn
people. The people make tn
laws and it is the duty of a cour
to determine cases in accordanc
with the laws as made. If tn
laws are bad the remedy is fo
the president to request tn
proper amendments and not
attempt to intimidate or infl'
ence the courts to decide contr
versies without regard to law.
