Sport fer Sports Sake.

President Hadley Of Yale wants his

Of gain in any sense" He reproaches

as a sort Of competitive means of
pushing the university ahead of some
rival" This, he says. is professional
Ism of the most subtle and therefore
the most dangerous sort. Even to

considers a dangerous dallying with

TO CLEAN UP CLAIMS
DEPARTMENTS OF INTERIOR AND
JUSTICE REACH AGREEMENT.

Assistant Attorney General Woodruff.
who is acting Secretary of the Interior in
the absence of Secretary Garfield and As
sistant Secretary Ryan. said yesterday that
the Departments of Interior and Justice
have reached an agreement to enter upon
an active campaign of cleaning up liti-
cations that have been pending for years.
A joint committee representing the two de-
partments has been arronged for. which will
Systematically go into the records and look
into the antecedentS of all the ancient cases
which appear to be pending. but have not
been brought to trial by the district attor-
neys. The object of this movement. the
acting secretary says is to clear up all the
dotkets. All unimportant cases. where the
amounts involved are small and the EVIL
dence at hand insufficient. will be stricken
from the dockets, while the more important
cases will be brought to trial as speedily as
possible.
The majority of these ancient claims and
suits are land actions, Indian cases and pat
ent cases, and if the policy of the Interior
Department is carried out, as now contem-
plated, all the papers in these cases will be
brought out of the pigeon-hoes of the de-
partment and the district attorneys Offices
and the cases disposed of in some way.
Thousands of such cases are said to be
pending, and Assistant Attorney General
Woodruff admits that the task of clearing
the dockets will be a stupendous one. Each
district attorney will at once be called upon
to explain the status of all cases or mat
tiers which have been made the basis of
suits, no matter how old. The records of
the two departments Will be checked against
the records of the district attorneys offices.
and it is thought the result will be the
complete listing of all the pending cases.
The district attorneys will then be in
structed to dispose of all the cases strictly
on their merits.

Typhoid Serious In Pittsburg.

PITTSBURG, June 14.-Twenty-seven
cases Of typhoid fever have been reported
to the Pittsburg bureau of health during
the last twenty-four hours, and a serious
epidemic OF the disease is feared by the
authorities. Warnings were issued to the
people yesterday cautioning them to use
the utmost care and boil all the drinking
water. While Pittsburg Is seldom, If ever,
free from the disease. the city at present
according to the. health authorities, is in
perilous condition. as its supply of drink
ing water Is being polluted to an alarming
extel&-with typhoid fever germs. At sew
eral upfIver points typhoid fever is raging
and the sewers of these towns are con-
stantly pouring their pollution into the
Allegheny river at points not far above the
intake of the Pittsburg water supply.

a flag Is inconceivable in the heart and
mind of sane and weli-balanced Ameri-
can citizen, except for selfish and I'M
worthy reasons.
our flag is the flag of freedom and of
this We are justly proud; but if any man
thinks that the freedom guaranteed by our
Constitution and by our laws is freedom to
impose upon our neighbors and to interfere
with the happiness of others. he Is a man
OF such infinite and dense stupidity that
you could not blow idea into his head
with dynamite. Freedom under the glo-
rious Stars and Stripes is the right of each
man. woman and child to all happiness
and comfort within the law that protects
each one equally In the pursuit of the same
Human nature and understanding are
however, imperfect and there are those
who do not know and who never can learn
what are the rights of others and what is
the best manner in which to pursue real
and lasting happiness and where such
persons vested with authority YOU
must expect requirements from them which
are unreasonable and not in accordance
with the best interests of all. that life may
seem good to all and each have an equal
chance to be happy.
The flag of freedom is intended to pro-
tect the ruled from such rulers; although
In the yet imperfect state of our political
economy, they will sometimes scramble
into positions in which they are yested
with the custody of the happiness OF many
OF their fellow citizens. whom they imme-
diately proceed to make as misera BILE as
possiDle III the shortest possible time: yet
the spirit OF the flag soon rises and the
scepter of freedom waves them from their
authority and into well-merited oblivion
the liberty for which this nations SOL
diers have fought gives TO man liberty to
Cypress his neishbors by restraint of trade
by monopoly. or restraint of labor by mo-
nopoly, as our Constitution and our flag
guarantee to all equal rights in the pur-
suit of happiness, and the man who inter-
feres with those rights strikes a blow at
the country and the flag. and is equally a
traitor with the man who takes arms
against the government.
The principles underlying our govern
ment and our Consultation are well worthy
of constant and serious study by our citi-
zens, who are. doubtless. often in error
when they think they know all about them.
If YOU think you know all about a subject
you may. generally, be sure that you do
not know anything about it: but il you

1t unlikely that instructions to press the
matter have been given to the Japanese
delegates. However, 1t is believed they may
be later.

said
I'VE doubtless all know the history OF
our flag but do often enough consider
what it means to us and to all the world
and OF what II is the emblem?
1t means that under its beautiful folds
rests in safety and success one of the
best governments. and probably the very
best that the world has known since the
time OF earliest history. The design of this
government was to give TO every man,
woman and child living within its jurisdic-
Tion an equal right TO life, liberty and the
pursuit OF happiness. The necessity for
the recognition of this principle in a good
government was asserted in the Declaration
%: Independence, and this principl. is the
foundation of our Constitution and is sup
posed to be the basis of all our laws.

flag we're established and how they have
been defended. Think of the labors and perils

every battle of the revolutionary war. Think
how IL was defended in the war of 1912 by
Jackson and a host Of other patriots and
ny Lincoln. Grant, Sherman, Sheridan and
another host of equally brave and earnest
men and at the cost of many thousands OF
lives. And why; Because they knew that
this government was the nearest approach
to perfection that could be conceived by

the welfare of his fellowman and the gov

MAKES ATTACK ON RATE LAW.
Pullman Company Questions Constitu-
tionality Before &c. C.

An important answer questioning the
constitutionality of the railroad rate law
was filed yesterday by the Pullman Com
pany to complaint recently filed with the
interstate commerce commission by George
S. LOTUS of st. Paul, Mimi. involving the
fairness of sleeping car rates.
The complaint alleged that the Pullman
Company exacted excessive and unreason-
able charges for its sleeping car accommo-
dations. and urged the commission to com
pei the company, under the recently enact
ed railroad rate law. to reduce by an order
the fares charged by the company.
The company's answer denies that thu
charges are excessive or unreasonable. ins
sists that they are entirely just and proper.
and denies the authority of the interstate
commerce commission To issue any such
order as is demanded by Mr.. Lotus COM
plant. In making this defense Ia the ar-
ton of the complainant the Pullman Com
pany attacks the constitutionality of the
railroad rate law.
1t was expected by the commission that
the Pullman Company would make just
such an answer as ii has made to the
Lotus complaint. The question raised by
the company promises to he a most inter-
%ting one. as IL is we'll understood that
the Pullman Company. In event of adverse
decision by the commission. Will appeal
the case To the higher courts.
