when almost every business man is, to
use common expression, up to his eyes
in work" and then there are other seasons
when they arc not nearly SO busy. 1t is It
this time that the hustler, especially the
merchant, makes special efforts to induce
the purchasing public to use the goods
which he has tor sale. There is no be tter
way known to accomplish this than by
advertising them through the columns of
your local paper of the bargains you have
to offer.

neninnlnns Of Rasnhall.

The history Of the American game
dates from the first National Associa-
ton OF Baseball In New York in 1858
The first series Of important match
games was played between picked
mines of Brooklyn and New York. at
Flushing, IN the same year. Nearly
1000 persons-a large crowd for those
days-paid their so cents a head to see
the contest. The rules of baseball were
very crude In those days. The pitchers
position was simply limited to a twelve
foot line forty-fiye feet from the home
base. behind which he could take any
number Of slips he wished. All he
was required to do was to pitch the
ball as near as possible over the home
base. There was no penalty for wild
pitching or for refusing to strike at
fair balls. once saw a pitcher de-
liver sixty balls to single batsman in

GRADE CROSSINGS

There are still complaints of the
danger to life and property from the
railway and street grade crossings.
Another narrow escape is reported,
which shows the great necessity of
prompt action on the part OF the
city council With the least
possible convenience to the rail-
way companies the city should
take immediate action for the regu-
lation OF trains at these grade eros
sings and we believe the railways
will willingly comply with reason
able rules There are three or four
crossings in the city where trains
should come to a stop and at Others
they might be slowed down to speed
that will avoid danger OF collision
with vehicles. II the city refuses OF
neglects to provide the necessary
protection 1t may be held liable with
the railways for damages. Yet It is
not damages. but protection that the
people demand.

Our Pacific Cruise as Seen Abroad.
Lookers-on IN Europe cannot shake
loose from the old notion that naval
demonstration means threat. A
cruise OF the magnitude of the transfer
OF our Atlantic fleet costs lot of mon.
ey. and as European powers are put to
Il TO maintain their regular military
establishments II IL difficult for the
foreigner to understand how any ma
tion would be at the expense Of a
costly demonstration without some
deep purpose lying back of It. II is
therefore not 20 be wondered at that
many European press comments con-
nect the Pacific cruise with the strain
eel relations believed 10 exist between
Japan and America over the treatment
" Japanese subjects In California. The

'fhe right OF the United States or any
either naval power to dispatch her ships
q and exercise them In any waters she
pieases, either OF her own coasts or OF
tle high seas. has never been questioned
particular cruise In which American sea-
snca might find all the experience and en-
errise they desire.
Then follows this warning note.
The Japanese government win exhibit
their ordinary guod sense and calm reason
IN handling an admittedly difficult prob
hem. but they are tho representatives OF a
slngulurly high spirited and chivalroua
nation. who cherish very high sense OF
their own dignity.
The Parts Times sees a possibility of
war In the San Francisco school Ques.
tion, but concludes that Japan cannot
question the right of the United States
10 send her ships wherever she
chooses"
The National Review of London
takes n hopeful view OF the sober
sense OF both nations involved, but Is
forced TO cOneede that the end Is not in
sight. II says;
The far eastern sky is eloudless az
viewed through official eyes. but the un- /
official vision either secs less clearly or /
with greater penetration. In a word, the |
public has dim apprehension OF official /

that this advantage is well worth
while.
A writer in the German Review
says that the control OF the Pacific is
as necessary to the United States as
the control Of the Mediterranean has
been to Great Britain To quote:
II Is In the tendencies the disposition,
the idlosyncrasies Of these two races that
we see the greatest danger of an immi-
nent conflict The Japanese have shown
themselves "a restless people. not content
ed with the limitations of their own from
tier. and It would be singular indeed II
after their recent successes In war and
diplomacy they were not bent on still
further triumphs. On the other shore OF
the Pacific stands a nation which In It's
unfaltering progress has proved itself not
inferior to the Japanese, least OF all in all
that concerns Its western development.
Who but the Americans can claim the
hegemony OF the Pacific? The possibility,
and when one considers the present rela-
tons Of the two. the probability of a
coming conflict between these nations on
the Pacific cannot be denied.

Gideon Discharged 8I,7OO Men with
out Honor for CowaFdice.


From the Charleston News and Courier.
The position OF Senator SDooRer that
the Presidents acts as commandeT-in-
chief of the army are not subject TO re-
view by the Senate. and that the SEN
ate's jurisdiction in regard to them is
limited to eases I'm which impeachment
proceedings have been brought, by the
House. is Q notably clear deliverance in
regard 20 the Brownsville case. To think
of a commander-in-chief of an army con-
stantly subjected TO parliamentary him
ORANGES is to wade venturesomely into
a sea of difficulties May a battle be
fought in time of war without the con-
sent of the Senate? If so, why? Whence
does the commander-in-chief derive his
authority? Why, therefore. may a COM
mander-in-chief discharge a battalion
without the advice and consent Of the
Senate?
Senator SpOOner to show the reasona-
bleness Of his position. might have cited
the case Of Gideon, son Of Joash. That
general went forth with an army Of 2,oo0
men, Obeying the Lord. Gideon dis
charged 22,0o0 who were fearful or
afraid"
Then he was diyinely commanded: He
that lappeth of the water with his tongue.
as a dog lappeth: him shalt thou set by
himself Thereupon Gideon discharged

But what would have been the plight
of Gideon, mad his orders been subject
