 His telling points were loudly cheer ed by the men and MT. Sherman was highly pleased at the cordial reception accorded him. Immediately after his address the candidate was taken back to Rock Island, where his car was waiting to convey him to Sterling. where he addressed meeting to- night MT. sherman's address on la bor in part follows;
 'The Republican party has always exercised diliEent care for American labor" declared MT. sherman. 'In af- teen years since 1893, laws for the beneft of labor to the number of over one hundred have been enacted by Re- publican Legislatures, signed by Re- publican Governors and enforced by Republican officers. In no State un- der Repu blican control have the req sonabls demands of labor for legisla- tion been refused. The contrast as- serts itself. In no State wharo the Democrats are in political control has a system of labor laws been enacted"

 Mr. sherman asserted that MT. Bry- an seeks to have an injunction set In operation, ito cripple industry, to check the wheels of transportation. 10 close markets. to destroy prosperity, to impoverish schools and ehurches and hospitals. Give him his way and by tariff for revenue only he will order an injunction against the employment of labor or the payment of wages at the present scale. It Is high time that Mir. Bryan's case for injunction against wages by the overthrow of protection should be set clear before the jury of the American people. MT. Bryan's partisan crime Is not commit ted in ignorance. He knows the mean ing of his acts and the evil fruit which alone they can bear. The one legisla- tive act of moment, with which the name of the gentleman from Nebraska Is connected Is this assault on wages through the tarif."

GREAT RAGE CLOSES Fight for Pennant in American League Ends, With De-
 troit Leading.
1907 AND 1908 CHAMPIONS
Donovan Twirls Beautiful Game for Tigcrs---Dash for Lead Proves
 Close Throughout.

Chicago, Oct. 6--What is said to have been the closest pennant contest ever waged by American league base ball clubs came to an end here to- night when Detroit, champions or 1907, captured the emblem for an- other year by defeating Chicago, to 0. Detroit, Cleveland and Chicago struggled all season for first place, never being far from each other in tho matter of games won and lost table
 st. Louis put Cleveland out of the running yesterday, leaving the final and decisive game to Detroit and Chi cago
 Detroit's victory to-day was clean and decisive. Jones used three pitch CTS, White, Walsh and Smith. but could not subdue the Detroits. Dono- van pitched the kind of ball that will win almost any game. Ills team mates coming first to bat gave him confidence in the initial inning by knocking White out of the box and putting four ruins across the plate.
 Two hits in different innings were all that Chicago could garner, and a local runner perched on second hase just once. In the sixth Inning with Chlcagoans on first and second bases, Donovan struck out Captain Jones and Isben and retired Dougherty with q high ny to right. Detroit's assist col- umn showed total of only two, for when Donovan did not strike out the batsman he pitched the brand of ball that resulted in flies All told he struck out ten men. Behind him err rorless ball was played and hits were made by his team mates when hils were needed. Detrot's batting alone would have captured the contest with ease, but assurance was made doubly sure by Chicago's errors, five in mum ber Detrot's commanding lead ct the outset did not dishearten Chicago, but it had depressing effect that deepened as tho game proceeded and Donovans superb control showed no signs of weakening.
 The rain officially predicted for to- day did not materialIze although tho sun was often obscured by the clouds before and during the game.

SCRUBS TOUCHDOWN Daly and Brides, in Fine Form, Carry Ball Successfully
 Against Varsity. MANY COACHES HERE NOW Guy Hutchinson and Jack Gates Join Alcott and Adee in Working
 With Men.
MANY COACHES HERE NOW

Tho scrub team had the Yale 'varsi- ty at It's mercy yesterday afternoon and the varsity at no time was able to mako enough headway against the scrubs as to put the goal line of the latter team in danger The scrubs scored, going straight through the cen- ter for gain after gain
 Brides started 1t by breaking up a play of Coy's at the center of the field. The scrubs then took the ball and with Brides and Daly alternating in carrying 1t it was rapidly taken down the field at about 10 yards at a time until 1t was five yards from the goal line. Brides took it across in 0 plunge and the varsity was scored on for the first time thIs year
 Clarence r. Alcott, who was end last year on the varsity, played end yester- day on the scrub team and assisted materially. Brides is in the best of form and Daly plays the same game he did in his senior year at Andover when he was the equal of any college back.  The scrub line held out remarkably we'll against the varsity, and though tho men in tho varsity line are indi- vidually superior to the scrubs yester. day the team work of the second elev- en was better Hopkins played quar- terback on the varsity and did very we'll Murphy played his usual steady game, but Philbin and Coy were both cratic.
 The call sent out for more graduate coaches has met with ready response Besides Alcott at the field yesterday were Guy Hutchinson, Jack Gates and George Adee. Yesterday morning Jones, Adee and Hutchinson gave the quarter backs some special practice.
 The lineup of the varsity yesterday was: Fitzpatrick, le; Hobbs, It; Andrus. lg: Riddle, c; Cooney rg; Goebel, rti Burch. re; Hopkins, qb; lhb; Murphy, rhb, and Coy, fb.
