Castle Heights Puts it All over C. M.
At Lebanon.

LEBANON, Tenn, Nov. 17.-Not-
withstanding the rather heavy field,
the game between G. M. A. and Castle
Heights this afternoon was a great ex-
hibition, and the large crowd went
away with a feeling of having got it's
moneys worth Castle Heights was
crippled by the loss of Quarterback
Anderson, whose finger was too sore
to permit his taking part, but Murphy
inspired confidence. and ran the team
beautifully. The visitors were out
weighed, and were still further handi-
capped by the wet ground, as they
came expecting to play running
game. From the jump it was appar
ent that the game was the property of
the locals, as they made touchdown
| in about three minutes, and repeated
it twice, making another touchdown
just before the halt closed with the
score 70 to 0.
The second half was repetition of
the first, four touchdowns for Castle
Heights, with but one goal kicked,
making the score 43 to A.
For Columbia, Fry saved the team
from being BANKED just at the last
moment. With but a few seconds to
play he kicked a beautiful goal from
the 25-yard line the ball barely getting
across the bar, grazing it. 1t was so
neatly done that the crowd cheered
vigorously. The Columbia boys play
ed a great game, and had the ground
been better would have made matters
more interesting for the locals, Neal,

because of a slight injury to his arm.
His running was beautiful, and his

While hardly heavy enough to hold
the c.. H. line, the visitors line made
some beautiful openings in the c. H.
line and allowed the back field to net
good gains. Sears and Shuford at
right and left end also did good work

cellent considering the conditions of

himself as did Burns, Graham, Gill

Kansas Editors Protest.

A firm stand has been taken by the
executive communities Of the Kansas
State Editorial association on the ques-
top of the exchange Of transportation
bv railroad companies for value re-
ceived in advertising. 1t was the I'M
animous opinion of those members Of
the committee who attended the meet
ing which was held Nov. 26 in Topeka
for the purpose of making the prelim-
mary arrangements for the annual
meeting Of the organization that such
an exchange is perfectly legitimate.
Resolutions were adopted addressing
a memorial to the Kansas delesation
in congress urging it to use all its eff
forts to have an amendment made to
the present interstate commerce law
W atch will settle beyond question the
right of railroad companies to ISSUE
transportation on contracts for adveT
tsing with newspapers.
And the committee went little fur
Their on this proposition. Believing
that some act of legislation will be
enacted by the state Legislature at its
coming session on the question of
ransportation, resolution was adopt
d creating a special committe which
will be instructed to use every legi-
innate effort to see that no legislation
is adopted which will prevent railroads
in the state from issuing transportation
on advertising contracts with the news
papers.
Among other things, resolution
was passed requesting the Kansas del
egation in congress to antagonize any
attempt on the part of the postoffice
d spartment to raise the rates of postage
on country newspapers, plan for
which is being considered by postal
authorities.
I,e committee fixed Jan. 81 and %
as The dates for the annual meeting Of
the associations, and, according to the
tentative programme which has been
arranged for this meeting, but which
is not yet ready for publication, it
promises to be one of the most import
ant from many standpoints which the
association has held. The committee
is in correspondence with several gem
tleman of national repute in the world
of journalism, who have been invited
to attend the meeting and deliver ad-
dresses, and the likelihood is that three
or more of them will accept.

Lincoln, Neb., Dec. 20-Comment-
ing on President Roosevelts message
Willialn j. Braan approves the utter,
ances on child labor, s hour law, the
right to criticize judges, and on other
points says;
The message contains much that ls
>mocratic, and for which the general
public may we'll thank him. 1t con-
tains something's that ought to arouse
severe criticism. The president bold
ly appropriates some of the doctrines
which the Democrats have been advo-
eating, and on the other hand he an
nounces some doctrines which are SO
absurd as to excite amusement if the
suggestions came from less promi-
nent source. In some cases he takes
advanced ground; in some cases he re-
treats from ground already taken.
He pays deserved tribute to the
progress of the japanese nation, and
asks for legislation which will enable
congress to protect the treaty rights OF
foreigners. That there should be such
legislation can not be generally disput-
ed, but great deal depends upon the
character of the legislation. If any
bills are presented in regard to this
suggestion, they must be carefully
scrutinized to be sure that they do not
deny to the various states the right 70
protect themselves and their people in
matters pure.y local.
There will be general dlsappoint-
ment at the warike tone of his mes
sage where he discusses the army and
the navy. He spea ks of the navy az
the surest guarantee of peace which
this country possesses. Shame upon
the chief executive that he should
place an instrument of brute force
above the nations sense of justice as
guaranteer ofpeace is ournation s prin
ciple to deal justly with other nations

the trusts: "There is going to be re-
voIution in this country and the peo-
pie are going to revolt against the OPP
pressions of the trusts. There will be a

by the last stroke Of ten resounded
