The question which party shall have the upper party lever on the voting machines is not botherlng the candidates for that was determined by law wben the machines were ac- cepted hy the state as the legal ehicle by which a voter shall express his suffrage. The law says that the party having the largest vote at the last proceeding election shall have its emblem and party name on ihe top party lever on the voting ma- jchlne.

No HOOK FOR
JACK CHESBRO
Happy Jack Was Pretty Bad in
go3, But His Art Returned the
Following Year.
THIS is HIS YEAR TO PITCH
His Record of Sixteen Straight
Wins Is the Best OF Any Pitcher
in the World.

NEW YORK. January 13-There are a
great many baseball critics who cannot
understand why Clarke Griffith does not
sell or exchange Jack Chesbro because he
failed TO make good last season
These people think that the Yankee
manager shows poor Judgment in stick
ing TO the big fellow. and say that his
day OF usefulness is past. but they forget
that when the star pitcher was secured
from Pittsburg in 1903 ho failed 10 make
good, and was then also declared to be
a lemon that had been sucked dry.
This dope was all upset I'm 1904. when
Ch"sbro not only recovered the form hc
showed as "a member Of tho Pirates. but
improved on it and made record in the
box that no other pitcher I'm the world
approached. not even the great Mathew
SON Tho Yankee twiricrs record OF six
teen consecutive victories made that year
has never been touched. and there does
not seem TO be anybod, in the field ilst
now capable Of breaking IT,
IT GRIN had listened to tho hundreds
of people who thought thoy know more
than ne. he would have let the spitbau
artist 20 after his poor season In 1908.
and then would have had tho pleasure
az seeing CHESHIRE making his great re-
cord as "a member of some other team
but Grif is wise beyond his voarS-ruanv
though they be-and does not jump AZ
conclusions So the biz twirler was
signed for another year. just as Dee will
be this year. II he is willing. and De has
already expressed his desire Co poe with
the Nanks this spring Tie writes that
he is i'm the best % health and is conf
dent that he will be able Go show them
all this summer.
Chesbro is one OF the hardest working
and most conscientious players In the
game, and even though he was I'm poor
shape last season. never for q minute
stopped trying to get around To- form. al
though il he had gone to Grin and told
him that he needed "a rest the manager
would have given him au ,he time of
he wanted. But Chesbro not only tried
to do his regular share OF the work. but
offered to go into the boN any time that
the team was hard up for pitchers. even
though it did jeopardize his chances or
being able to pitch another year.
Of course. there has never been "A ball
player I'm the history Of the game who
was not in grand condition during the
period when no expects the contracts to
be sent out. but In Chesbro's case Il IS
different. as be- has been bad and has
come back The following year and shown
wonderful form. and il is to be hoped
that he Will do The same thing this year
II he does come hack to his own. there
will be every reason to think that the
Yanks will win the pennant this year.
but II it is proved that the once great
ChesbrO IS a has been Il will not take
Grin long TO swing the bag on him and
