The Chickasha daily express. (Chickasha, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1899-current, 1907-07-17

We hereby express our allegiance
to the great principles of government
advocated by the national democratic
party, upon which We believe the fu-
ture welfare Of this republic must
depend.
We reaffirn our allegiance to that
greatest living exponent Of democratic
principles, William Jennings Bryan,
and endorse him for our presidential
nominee in 1908.
We emphatically demand the reason
able and proper control Of transpor-
ltation and transmission companies and
the supervision and control Of all en-
terprises engaged in interstate COM
merce.
We favor the improvement Of the
waterways Of the Missouri valley and
the establishment ow water transpor-
tation wherever practical throughout
the Union.
We believe that the patriotic ele-
ments Of the republican party are no
Longer able to control or influence
that great political organism. We be-
lieve that the machinery Of the party
has fallen under the insidious influ-
ence Of the great plutocratic power
and organized monopolies Of this ma
ton.
We denounce and condemn the ma
tional republican party for the lavish
Iuse Of moneys belonging to the peO-
pie Of Oklahoma in the reclamation
lservice in other states, and pledge
Jour members in our national congress
to use their best efforts 10 require the
IcIamation service to use the money be-
longing to Oklahoma in Oklahoma.
We belive that the vast contribu-
ltions Of money by these special inter
ests have given such interests such
power over the republican party that
Ia remedy for national conditions IN
der which the people suffer Is impos-
sible through that party.
| We appeal therefore to every good
city who places patriotism above
Icommercialssm, happiness and the vel
fare Of the great body Of our produc-
ling class above the enrichment Of the
flew; and who believe in local self-gov-
ernment, to join Us in holy crusade
for the restoration Of the people to
their rights.
We enjoin upon the advocates Of
democracy that they treat with sep
cial respect those Of our fellow citi-
zens who BY environment, affiliation
lor by other reasons have heretofore
AFFILIATED with other parties, and we
|urge them to use only sound argument
in appealing 10 their reason and to

run through the center fielder. 1t was
not exactly clean home run but it did
the business just the same. Olson fol-

unable to bring him home.
The score continued in a tieup status
until the eighth inning. Henry was the
first man up in this inning and sent a
neat little single to left field. Davis
followed up the work by beating out a
bunt, Hurlburt sacrificed both men on

The remaining game of the series with
Pdttsburg has been called off. This was
done on account of the cold weather and
the fact that game on such weather
is a losing venture financially for the
management. Instead of the Topeka
Fittsburg game Washburn college is
playing Ottawa university. This is the
first college game of the season in To-
peka.
One thing about the new batting or
der which will assist greatly in getting
runs during the coming seasan was
noticed in the eighth inning yesterday.
Henry and Davis, two of the best and
most daring base runners in the league
are together in the batting order.
The general verdict of the Topeka
baseball public at the present time is
that Landreth is the find of the season.
The big fellow has played in every prac
the game Solar this season and has
net yet made an-error4 in the field. On
tine other hand he has made some mar
ve1ousA returns of ground balls to the
outfield when he made what seemed to
be two or three Dagger become sin
gle. At the bat he generally gets away
with a hit or two. In fact there has
been only one game during the prelim-
mary schedules up to date in which he
has not connected and sometimes he
has been known to get two and three
hits a day. His home run yesterday
caused a big sigh of relief to emerge
from the grandstands and it brought in
the first runs of the game.
No games have been arranged as yet
for this week but it is not unlikely that
there will be two three played dur
ing the week. st. Marys will likely be
brought down for a game.
After seeing the game yesterday the
fans can readily realize why Herman
Crow was so anxious to secure Jones
from Lincoln. The southpaw is a good
pitcher and will be able TO pitch rings
in the association With Halla and
Jones as the south side twirlers of the
pitching staff there can be but little
doubt that Topeka has two great south
paws. Who the right handed pitchers
will be is as yet a matter of doubt but
there are still over two weeks in which
Captain Runkel can make a selection.
Starkey who is playing shortstop for
Oklahoma City has played up and down
the minor leagues of the country for
fifteen years. He has never been a
brilliant player but always manages to
play a medium grade of ball. There is
no danger that he will burn up the
league with his playing.

field papers to the effect that the Fort
Scott team had recently defeated the
Topeka Champions in two games. Fort
Scott has not played in Topeka since
1904 and then Topeka always had a

Jay Andrews has found an infielder
and a pitcher by the name of Woods.
Woods is a youngster from some place
out in central Kansas and seems to be
good man. He is sure of a job on Jay

ST. Marys defeated the Independent

Although played under unfavorable
weather conditions the game was a
good exhibition. st. Marys did not
score until the sixth when Burns

an error netted them three runs. Both
pitchers were in good form consider

Saturdays game from a spectator
standpoint was poor exhibition, as
there was no time when it was close
enough to arouse any of the latent en-
thusiasm of the fans. The main cause
of the trouble with the Pittsburg team
that they did not win the game was
their inability to swing the willow in
Boles who pitched for the Champions.
But one hit was garnered off of each
and the hit which was secured from
Boles was of a rather doubtful order
had the outfielders INDUCED in a little
better article of footwork.
The only run which the visitors re-
ceived was the direct result of a hit
batter, an error, and a safe hit. This
occurred when Boles was pitching in
the seventh inning. Boles hit Burns
the first man UP. Kelly famed and
Riddle reached first on the error of
Boles in fielding his short hit. Burns
felder's choice. Reed hit safe over the
infield the ball dropping in front of
Hurlburt and Davis and Riddle scored.
Topeka had but little trouble in
working in runs whenever they felt
like it and they did not have to exert
themselves very much either.
With the stick the locals did fine
work, Runkel and Olson each secur-
ing three base hits at opportune times.
The work of Runkel at third and of
Landreth in left field were the feat
ures of the game.
The Topeka bunch sprung a new
umpire on the fans in the person of
Pitcher Frank Moore and he certainly
is as good an umpire as one general
~ sees.
