CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL NOTES
Tennis Players of Local Institution Win Game From Heber, but Col leeiate Institute Leads in
 Base Ball.

The first interscholastic league base ball game of the season in El Cen tro was played last Saturday between El Centro and Heber Collegiate In stitute. The latter proved too strong for the local boys defeating them by a score of to 6.
 Heber took the lead in the first in ming by getting in two runs. which lead was increase dby one run in the third and two in the fourth. El Cen tro scored once in the second and fifth. In the eighth El Centro pound ed the Heber pitcher for two two baggers and two singles, bringing in the runs which tied the score. In the ninth Heber retaliated with one two bagger and two singles, which, with a costly error, let in two more runs making the total score z. A two-bag- ger, walk, and good base running enabled El Centro in the 9th to get one run in and another man on third. with two down. The last man at bat failed to make good leaving the score ' to 6.
 Each team made Il hits; Heber's pitcher struck out three men; Fl Centros five; Heber walked three; El Centro two. One wild pitch cost El Centro one run.
 The contest was a good, clean game of ball of higher grade than is usually offered by high school students. The small crowd that saw the game got their moneys worth.
 The girls of the high school won their first match in tennis last SaJnr- day when they defeated the two rep resentatives of the Heber Collegiate Institute.
 Doubles were played, Misses Col Her and Heil representing El Centro and Misses McCord and Ferris, Heber. The match was played on the grounds of the Fl Centro Tennis Club. Mrs. Dr. Peterson acted as referee. The first set was won by Fl Centro, score GA, and the second set likewise was won by them by score of 6-3, mak- ing third set unnecessary.
 Arrangements are being made whereby the girls of the high school may have the use of the courts at certain stated regular hours. Nearly all of the twenty-four girls enrolled are interested and wish to play or learn the game.
 The first year class at the high school was increased by one last week, when Elizabeth Hegerty entered from the Riverside High School
 The report cards for the first quar- ter of the year have been issued, de- noting the attainment of each student in the various subjects taught. There were very few failures in any of the subjects.
 Karl Moore has been elected presi- dent of the Interscholastic Debating League of the Valley. Debates are to be held during the year with the other high schools.

IN CASE OF A VACANCY.

The critical illness of Hon. James s. Sherman, the vice presidential nominee, yesterday presented to his party the possibility of a question unlike any other with which it had ever been brought face to face and unlike any which had ever been con- sidered in the councils of the party how might a vacancy on the ma tional ticket be filled?
 The possibility had doubtless been mildly discussed the day before, fol- lowing the narrow escape of Sec retary Taft from a railroad accident on Sunday evening. But the danger of the accident had passed so that any consideration of the subject was academic.
 Never in a republican national con- vention has there been any allusion to such a contingency as a vacancy on the ticket. It must have occurred to many in every convention that vacancies were possible, for death is no respecter of political tickets. Per haps the reason that the conven- tions have been silent in this mat ter is that they had a sentimental objection to speaking of death in the midst of the enthusiasm which prevails when a ticket is put into the field.
 A precedent for filling a vacancy in the national ticket might be found In the universal practice governing the actions of the party in county and state campaigns There it is ex- pressly provided that the committee shall fill such vacancies as may oc- cur and that has been frequently done
 That is probably what would be done in the event of a vacancy in the national ticket. The manner of filling a vacancy is not essential so | that it may seem to represent the i will of the party and it could be no more clearly done in any other way unless it should be done by a sec

CAESAR DEALS HIMSELF A GOOD
 HAND.

The Hon. Elfego Baca is the editor and owner of a Spanish newspaper of New Mexico. He is also a lawyer and he is moreover doubtless a be- liever in the truth of that saying of Col. J. West Goodwin of the old Se- dalia, Mo, Bazoo: He that blow eth not his own horn the same it shall not be blown"
 On an occasion of the departure of Attorney Baca to attend court at Socorro, Editor Baca said of him:
 "The energetic accomplished and gentlemanly advocate, MT. Elfegt Baca, who has been sought for dur numerous clientele on matters of his profession, still continues his stay in the pueblo of Socorro, N. NJ, attend ing the trials which he is conducting and which are being examined in the court which pursues it's labors in open session in that county.
 HIS 4iiNNAliSCl4l "nO bs his correct standards and sound judg- ment in his attention to affairs as to which he is consulted in judicial pro- cedure or which he takes in charge as well as by his prestige and popu- larity which he enjoys through his integrity and the confidence with which business is entrusted to him, has known how to capture the es- teem of all social classes, not only in the place of his residence but in other pueblos of the territory of New Mexico and Fl Pasco, Texas.
 We consider it just to give to Caesar that which belongs to Cae- sar."
 Of course, all this was in Span ish but the Albuquerque Journal having heard some where that the gods help those who help themselves decided to help the gods by trans lating and publishing the foregoing, giving it the benefit of it's extensive circulation. It is worth something to New Mexico to have it spread throughout the circle of the worlds ! that Editor Baca lives there.

THE ADOPTED CITIZEN
the editor of The Republican;

To the editor of The Republican:
 Sir.-To settle a dispute will you please answer in the columns of your paper the following question: A, say: that an alien can take up homestead when he has declared his intention to become a citizen.
 B. says that he has got to have his naturalization papers before he can take up a homestead.
 Which is right?
 CONSTANT READER. Phoenix, June 21.
 B, is wrong. An alien can file on a homestead on taking out his first pa pers, though he cannot prove up, to secure title, until he has been fully naturaliZed.

PROGRAM OF f0RAKtR
 A MATTER OF INTEREST
It is Believed That He Will Take the Stump in Ohio for the National Ticket.

Washington June 23.-That Senator Ohio and make the effort of his life to carry the state for the republican ticket is confidently believed by re- publicans high in the councils of the party. There have been recent con- ferences among influential republi- cans in national affairs, and they strongly tended to bring about this result. On the other hand it is hoped by the friends of Foraker that he is to have the support of Taft and other leaders in Ohio for the senator ship.
 As soon as the convention nom mated Taft and Sherman the prob lem involved was Foraker's program in Behalf of the negro soldiers of the twenty fourth infantry. It became matter of special interest to re- publican leaders and was one Of the first things to receive attention. It was recognized that unless the negro voters of Ohio should turn out and give their full voting strength to the republican ticket, the state might be endangered. Even should 50 to 75 per cent of them remain at home and not vote at all republican supremacy in the state would be jeopardized. For that reason it was insisted upon that Foraker should actively go up on the stump and make at least one or two speeches in which to direct his reamrks toward the interests of the negro voters
 Foraker is making an automobile trip from Washington to Gettsyburg and return. He is expected to be back here in a day or two. He will soon proceed to his home in Ohio, to his summer vacation.

ond convention. Even a second convention could not be considered representative unless it should origin ate in the primaries and come through the county and state conventions. The delegates chosen to the first na- tional convention were chosen for that and no other. Thus their appearance in a reconvened convention would have an appearance of irregularity.
 On the other hand the national con- vention is a body which the conven- tion has empowered to take full charge of the campaign thencefor- ward and is held responsible for its success. It is understood to be au- thorized to do all that need be done.

RECOMMENDATIONS TO MERCY

ADMINISTRATIONS TO MERCY.
 We have often wondered why the jury should be allowed to indulge in recommendations to the mercy of the court" It is true that the recom- mendation is not binding but the court as well as the jury, in the course of the trial, is put in possess sion of all the extenuating circum- stances, if there are any, and beside the court is better able to decide whether they are really extenuating. We suppose though that many of these recommendations are the products of compromise
 That could hardly have been the case though in the verdict against Walter J. Bartnett the general coun- sel and wrecker of the California Safe Deposit and Trust company and the embezzler of the Colton securities for in that case there was nothing to compromise. The verdict was found on the first ballot.
 The evidence left not the slightest doubt os the guilt of the defendant of a peculiarly mean crime. His own testimony alone must have left the jury in no moral doubt of his guilt of all the indictment charged.
 Yet, there was a recommendation to mercy" that certainly could have been supported by nothing the jury
 However, as we have stated, these recommendations are not binding. If they relieve the minds of the jury to any extent, let them continue to be made.
