In speaking Of the investigation
of the lumber trust in Muskogee
the Tribune has this 10 say.
The fact that the price of lum-
Der in Muskogee has been reduced
from four to eight dollars a thou
sand since this investigation began
does nos satisfy the demands of
justice.
Every comm unity in the new
state is entitled to a square deal as
well as Muskogee, and the Tribune
will contend for X.
The lumber trusts must go. We
still see no reason to change our
opinion Of last week
The small lumber dealer is not
responsible for the Trnst, but like
the public in general is a victim of
the trust.
And the hand of justice should
grasp the biggest men in the
bunch. .
There will be no tronble with
the small dealers when the real
monopolist is punished and his
trust destroyed.
Ten or fifteen days ago lumber
p eople told us the selling price of
lumber was so low they were max
ing little or no profit.
II that statement was true, how
could they afford to reduce the
price from four to eight dollars per
thousand since this investigation
began1
1t would look so much more
like innocence if the leading men
in this alleged Lumber Trust would
openly come into court and defend
their claim of innocence by their
testimony and their records in
stead of by technicalities and
threats.

THE RELIGION OF TODAY

taught that the chief function o
religion was to prepare men to di'
properly and to be happy in th'
life beyond.
This world was vale Of tears
and 'Hark from the Tombs' wa:
a favorite song. II was such a
wicked world that those who would
enter the joys Of life eternal must
set it at naught, To such an ex.
tent was the idea carried that men
believed that the highest spiritual
excellence could be obtained only
by Withdrawing from the world to
osme secluded spot and hence the
hermit life became fashionable
among saints. The injunction to
"crucify the flesh" was carried out
literally and the pious man gloried
IN ueglecting, disfguring, and
abusing the body that God gave
him.
AT a later period came the era Of
Puritanism with its exalted teach
ings that laid the foundations Of
civil and religious liberty but much
Of the former age survived in re-
ligious ideals. The life to come
was still the great desideratum.
This world and all in it was evil,
TO be Stunned by him would attain
the bliss of life eternal. Puritanism,
therefore, laid down its hard and
fast rules, no one Of which must be
broken If that life was to be assur-
do. 1t was a grand doctrine: il

in the thoughts and hearts of men,
a new ideal, strangely different

Minnesota Athletic Coach Tells of
the Advantages in Revised
Regulations. r, =
Special to The Journal.

Chicago, Oct. 20.-Dr. Harry l.. Will
liams, football director at the Univer-
sity Of Minnesota, was a spectator at
today's Chicago Purdue game. He said:
"Football as played under the new
rules promises to be far more interest
ing and spectacular than the old style.
Today's game between Chicago and
Purdue demonstrated that mass plays
were eliminated, and the open, fast
play was replete with equal periods.
Under the new regime. fast men of
ability are at a premium. Further,
there was no unnecessary roughness,
and it seems to me that the new rules
have accomplished just about what the
American Rules committee intended
they should. Chicago played the game
in a remarkably finished and polished
STYLE. The men handled the ball clean
ly and the eleven knew just what to do
every time. For SO early in the sea-
son, the team appeared remarkably &C.
curatee and alert, showing form that or;
dinarily is not displayed until well
Stefen displayed just the kind Of quail
tiles which are going to show best in
the new game, and altogether Chicago
showed that it has very powerful and
dangerous ioffense.
The forward pass was tried. but it
was at best uncertain as was shown
when the ball, when on forward pass
by Purdue player, landed in Chica-
90 mans hands, and he forthwith
proceeded to run with it for touch
down. Many people naturally are much
interested in the coming game between
Chicago and Minnesota. Minnesota is
pleased to resume athletic relations
with Chicago The feeling between the
| two institutions are the very best and
| no doubt they will so continue.''

Lincoln, Neb., Oct. 20.-The Nebras-

of defeat for the first time in six years
on their home field, going down before

first practical test Of the revised foot
ball rules between teams evenly
matched as to weight.
McElhinney, Ames' speedy right end,
started things when he captured one of
Nebraska's forward passes and raced
for a touchdown. Ames' nine remain
ing points were due to the accuracy of
Nebraska's two points resulted from
center Wilkes blocking a touch back
kickout. the ball rolling behind the
Ames goal, where the aggies were forced
to put it down. On straight football,
as played under the old rules, neither
team could have scored.
The margin in weights was slightly

lowans outmaneuvered the cornhuskers,
displaying superior aptitude in the fin
er points of the new game. Their hon
ors were deserved Captain Jeanson
| Of Ames carried off most of the laurels,
| proving a shreWd general, running back
punts with rare speed and winning the
game alone on his superior talent in
kicking field goals.
Ames Scores First.
The aggies won the toss and took
advantage Of a stiff breeze at their
backs, resorting persistently to punts
and keeping the ball in Nebraska ter
ritory. The cornhuskers were able to
resist the danger of an invasion of
their goal, and the battde was fought
on even terms until nearly the close of
the first half, when Jeanson scored his
first field kick. The Ames captain sig
nailed for fair catch of punt on the
that johnson, Nebraska IS ,colored left
end, interfered with Jeanson's effort.
The ball was moved up fifteen yards on
the penalty and Jeanson on a place
kick, shot the ball squarely over the
bar
The scoring in the second half was
all done within few minutes Of the
final whistle. With the ball in Ne
braska s possession in the middle Of
the field, a double pass intended for
johnson fell plump into the arms of the
from two cornhusker tacklers and
sprinted safely for Nebraska goal
line. Ames' attack then took on new
life, and the ball was slowly worked
down the field to within drop-kick-
ing distance, when Jeanson again
dropped back and neatly booted the
oval over the cornhusker's goal bar.
Mcdonald and Cooke, for the corn
huskers, both attempted to equal jean
son in drop kicking, but failed, their
kicks falling short. =.
Wilke, Nebraska's center, engineered
two sensational plays: Twice.. after a
touchback, he blocked Ames' kickouts,
one of them leading to Ames' safety,
and thus scoring Nebraska only
points. On his other, effort he leaped
into the air, knocked the oval to the
ground and single handed captured the
ball from the entire Ames eleven, who
were scrambling for it's possession. This
play was never before witnessed on
Nebraska field. 49,

On account of the bad weather it
was very hard to observe the new rules
and officials were not very strict. For
st. Cloud, Gallagher and Stevenson
played star game, but they did not
seem to have the headwork necessary
to win, or even make a touchdown,
making very few first downs, and on
the third down usually had to punt.
They made their best gains on forward
passes and played snappy game in
some respects, but were beaten by su.
