That Sunday baseball is popular was
demonstrated by the large crowd that
filled the grand stand and bleachers. It
seems unjust that 50 many persons
should be deprived of innocent enjoyment
just because a few fanatics raise their
voices against it. Suppose the base ball
enthusiasts should take the stand that
all laws should be enforced, how would
the fanatics feel? What a howl they
would put up if they deprived Of a spin
on the Bouleardsy in their automobiles or
if all the confectionery stores were closed
so they couldn't buy candy or soda water.
The laws are made for the rich as well
as the poor and if Sunday base ball is to
be prohibited all the other laws should
be enforced as well.

Not one of the 10000 spectators at
West Side Park yesterday who saw
Chief of Police Murphy cross the dia-
mond and stop the base ball game be
tween the Jersey City and Buffalo teams,
blamed him for his action. They knew
he did not do it because he was opposed
to Sunday base ball. They realized that
it had been put up to him good and
strong and that as the head of the police
department he had no alternative except
TO enforce the law. Others higher up
lodged the issue, but the Chief did his
duty. That may account for the applause
that greeted the Chief. Though dlsap-
pointed, the spectators could not -heip
but show their appreciation of the best
Chief of Police Jersey City ever had. 1t
was plainly evident that the Chief was
among friends despite the unpleasant
duty he had to perform.

WANTS WIVES FOR ALASKANS
Governor Brady Appeals to American
Girls Because of Scarcity of
Women There.

Washington, Jan. 9.-One of the
most crying needs of Alaska is wives,
according to the annual report of John
G. Brady, governor of that territory.
He appeals to the young women of
America 10 come to Alaska and get
married.
1T is noticed says the governor,
that schoolma' ans and other young
women VINO come here reside in place
only a short time before some worthy
admirer turns up and tells the old
story A number of these chose mat
rimony during the past year.
ct is delicate matter and not easy
to arrange, but it is desirable to have
more women of good mind and health
to try this western life and home
building. Those who have a love of
children and desire to rear a family
should learn what special advantages
Alaska has to hold out to them

PAT.TIsoN TAKES OATH.
First Democratic Governor Inaugu-
rated in Ohio for Many
Years.

Columbus, O., Jan. 9.-John M.
Pattison, of Cincinnati, who defeated
Gov. Myron T. Herrick by $1,000 plu-
rality last fall in the contest for the
gOvernOrship, was inaugurated Mon
day. in the capitol rotunda in the
presence of a distinguished company.
The new executive is the first Demo-
crat elected to the high honor in
many years in the Buckeye state.
Mr.. Pattison introduced unique
feature at the inaugural ceremonies
by reviewing the paraae while stand
ing in a glass cage which had been
erected on the reviewing stand to
guard him from the wintry air. Gov.
Pattison has been i'll with a severe
cold for several days and under no
other conditions would his physician
permit him to venture beyond his
home. The spectacle of a new gov
ernor standing in a glass case to re-
view the parade celebrating his in
duction into Office attracted an i'm
mense crowd of people, every section
of the state being represented. Gov.
Pattison and his party stood in the
cage, which was ten feet high and
about II feet square, with a peaked
roof, and watched the troops and civic
organizations as they filed past.
