Johnson looks well, but not like a
thoroughly, hardened athlete. His color
Is lighter than It should be, despite
the fact that he is a blonde, and he
does not give the impression OF being
ready TO show the speed and stamina
which distinguished him last year. he
was full OF enthusiasm and lively
spirits, and there Is little fear that he
will not round into shape again as a
phenom.

Mr.. BRYAN is Willing.

The announcement by William
Jennings Bryan that he will listen
to the voice of reason is apparently
tantamount to q nomination. The
Democratic party will certainly give
him the nomination for president.
If it does not, if in its dependency
the Judge Parker type, it will pro-
vide the most notable case of in
growing assassination on record.
For, in spite of his two defeats.
Mr.. Bryan is still the most popular
man in his party. Wherever two or
three democrats are gathered to-
gether in one county, the praises of
w. ]. Bryan are sung. He has seen
a great light on the silver question;
his soul is no longer troubled by the
fear of American Imperialism.
Until the time is ripe, he is will
ing to keep the lid on the govern
ment ownership of railways, cling
ing desperately to the weatherbeat-
en- idea that the trusts can be dis
solved. Otherwise he is a person of
progressive tendencies. He is an
honest man; he has broad demo-
cratic sympathies. If by some sort
of latter-day miracle he ever reaches
the White House, the financial pow
ers that be will never get beyond
the front gate.
What better can the party of
Jefferson and Jackson do for liv-
ing? Voting for Southerner has
never proved profitable occupa-
ton; Folk, of Missouri, is reform
er, not a statesman. The party is

a field so broad that if they succeed

SALOON REGULATION.

Tacoma has limited the number oe
saloons to one for each thousand
population, and Seattle is considering
the adoption of the plan to eliminate
the corner saloon and hold the num-
Der down to two on each street face
of city block. This would mean a
limit of eight in each block This
would mean a limit of eight in each
four blocks of frontage on either
side of a street, which would provide
saloons at stages short enough to
save the thirstiest citizens from ia
mishing in an interval. This provi-
sion has been approved by the char
ter revision committee of the city
council and will be submitted to the
people at the coming election. There
is much significance in this DISPOSE
ton of the legislators of Seattle to
so largely curb the altitude of the
saloon. Only a couple of years ago
Seattle was about the widest open
city in the country, with the saloon
interest a dominant influence in its
administration Now the saloon is a
suppliant ready to promise to be good
if allowed but portion of the liberty
which heretofore it has been able to
demand With anti-saloon sentiment
so clearly evidenced all over the state
there is just one way in which the
saloons can head off local option as
the leading issue in the next cam
paign, and that is by being so meek
and orderly that they will become
inconspicuous in a community.-Ev

THE STRANGER WITHIN THE
GATES

Much comment has been heard on
the article which appeared in yes
terday's issue of the Daily World
entitled els the Stranger Welcomed
in Wenatchee?" The interviews
contained therein represent not the
city of Wenatchee alone, but there
is food for thought for those who
live in other places in Washington
as we'll. Hospitality costs nothing,
says one. Let's have a little more
of it right along for every day use
1t will be appreciated especially by
the new man in the country.

If We could realize that only the
present is real, that only the pres
ent exists, or ever can; that there
is really no yesterday or tomorrow
that we can never be certain of any
thing but the moment we are living
in; that we cannot project our
selves into the future, nor can W,
step backwards; that there is only
one eternal. Now, if we could only
fully realize this, how it would null
tiply our power and increase our en-
joyment and efficiency.-Success.

EImIra Member OF Congress Praises
Roosevelt Administration.

Elmlra, April Representative J.
Sloat Fassett was unanimously renomi-
mated this afternoon. The convention
adopted a resolution indorsing the ad-
ministration OF Roosevelt aud Hughes.
Fassett and Milo Acker, of Hornell.
were elected delegates to the national
convention, and J. H. B. Mongln, Of
Seneca. and Senator Cassidy, was named
as alternates.
The delegates were instructed TO sup
port Hughes as long as there was a
chance Of the nomination coming TO New
York State Fassett made a speech, in
which he said the Republicans OF New
York State were loyal 10 Hughes.
Il don't know who will be the nominee
next June" said Mr. Fassett when there
came an interruption and scores Of per-
sons in the hall shouted: Theodore
Roosevelt" Then there was cheering for
the President and none fer Hughes But
whoever will be-" went OF the Represent
tative, '"will be named because Theodore
Roosevelt thinks he is the right man. and
he will run on a Roosevelt platform. We
have-a candidate in New York State, and
he says he believes in Rooseveltism.
We are for him because We have believed
that Roosevelt would not be a candidate
again.

boisterousness and il was evident that IL

CONNIE MACK FINDS STARS
Athletics Foxy Manager a Wonder
at Unearthing Pitchers.
Has Brought Out Such Famous
TwirIers as Bender, WaddeII,
CoakIey, and COOmbs.

Wise old Connie Mack! The other base
ball managers and magnates viii have to
take of their hats TO the thin gentleman
who directs the destinies Of the Athletics
once more. for the manager has not been
discovered that can dig up as many star
young pitchers as has the Philadelphian
in the last few years.
He certainly is a wonder. Back IN 1902,
when he lost Fraser. Duggleby, and
Bernhard. he beat the bushes and picked
up Abe Wilson. WaddeH. and Mitchell.
OF course. Wadden had z reputation as q
pitcher behind him, but Mitchell and VII
son were unknowns. They showed abil-
ity for Mack. however. and won enough
games 10 land the Athletics in first place.
Waddell. Husting, and Plank, who was
another find of 1901 doing the bulk OF the
work.
Then Husting quit the game and Mitch
ell and Wilson were let out Mack turn
ed up with Weldon Henley, Of Atlanta,
and Chief Bender. the Carlisle Indian.
Both men made good. and. with Waddeli
and Plank kept Philadelphia in the run
ming.
a year later Andy Coakley was picked
up at Holy Cross College. Mack had had
his eye On him for a couple OF years, and
when he decided that he was ready.
reached out and brought him down TO
Philadelphia Jimmg Dygert was discov-
cred in the Hudson River League, and
Mack took him and sent him down 10
New Orleans to develop, A year later he
pulled the string and Dygert has been
member of the Athletics ever since.
Next he brought Coombs TO the front.
Coombs was another college lad, and
Mack watched his work for three years
before telling the speedy youngster that
he thought he was ready. Unfortunately.
the college boy threw his arm out last
year, and probably he win never be able
10 pitch. egain. But FOR this accident he
would rank to-day among the best pitch
ers in the country.
With such pitching recruits, the Phiia-
deIphia team has always been In the
running except in 1896, when after set
ting the pace, the Athletics were severely
crippled and dropped 10 fourth place.
In the meantime he has parted with
Waddell. Henley. and COakley Henley
possessed a peculiar nature, and could
not work in harmony with other meTn-
bers of the club Coakley's health went
back on him. and Mack made the mis-
take OF thinking that the Holy Cross boy
was down and out for good Waddel
was also let out for the sake Of preserv-
ing harmony.
He now has Carter and Schlitzer. who
have made good from the start
