Richard Olney.

Richard Olney declares for Mr..
Bryan. He is not, however, new re-
cruit. He was regular in 1900 on the
issue of Imperialism. He is regular
this year on what are called general
principles. He sees great dangers to
the country from longer Republican
rule, tending. as he thinks it does, to
Capitalization and a cloud of other
evils. His remedy is the election of
Mr.. Bryan, which would be followed
by other Democratic triumphs, and so
in time would be accomplished the
rescue of affairs from Republican con-
troll Mr.. Olney's letter is probably
intended as an Offset to Mr.. Cleve-
lands letter advising support of Judge
Taft. Is the live Olney more power
full than the dead Cleveland? He is
the fourth member of the second
Cleveland cabinet to throw his sup
port to Mr.. Bryan, Judge Harmon,
Hoke Smith and David r. Francis

CHICAGO WINS
CRUCIAL GAME
THEY DEFEAT THE GIANTS AND
WIN THE NATIONAL LEAGUE
CHAMPIONSHIP.
THEIR TEAM WORK PERFECT.
Game Played in New York was Wit
messed by Record Breaking
Crowd and Thousands Were
Unable to Gain Admittance

New York City.-"Chicago 4, New
York 2"-this was the tale in a phrase
told at the end of the most decisive
baseball game played in this country
in many years; played at the Polo
Grounds in this city Thursday to de-
eide the National league championship
for the season of 1908. In the pres
ence of record breaking crowd,
which swamped the grounds and left
many thousands outside long before
the game began, a game was played In
deadly earnest to settle as tenseIy
dramatic situation as the most ar
dent lover of sport could imagine.
Chicago won and New York lost.
It was great baseball, witnessed by
the greatest of great baseball crowds
which would have been more than
doubled could the fences have been
stretched out into a circle of sufficient
size to include all those who clamored
vainly for admittance, and who
thronged everything that offered the
least possibility of catching even am
echo of the applause within. Specta-
tors who know the game, however bit.
ter they may feel over the tie decision
which made the game compulsory,
concede that the work of the Chicago
team was, practically perfect.
The Giants were outplayed They
lacked, among other things, that Ger
tain indeflnable something, absence of
which is probably in this instance ex-
planned by the results of the great and
steady strain they have been under
the past week. Chicago, fresh from
rest and well-judged practice and
coaching, were superb in form. Bril-
liant. errorless fielding, snappy base
running and opportune hitting In the
third inning, which made effective i'm
scores a double by Chance, won the
game.
New York could not hit at critical
times. Mathewson, favorite of the
favorites, could not keep his invineible
arm power and the effect of a mo-
ment's lapse in that third inning could
not be overcome. McGraw's substitu-
tion of Wiltse in the box the last two
innings may or may not have been
wise. The home team needed a long
hit, needed the tremendous rallyhg
power which Mathewson has more
than once inspired in them at the
very finish, and wrung victory from
seeming defeat.
The two great innings of the game
were the third and the seventh. In
the former Chicago made all its runs
in the latter-opening with tremendous
enthusiasm following the loud-shouted
slogan: 1.-The Giants lucky seventh"
hopes were renewed, but died, after
one run, which kept company with
that made in the first inning.
Pfeister started to pitch for Chicago,
but was taken out in the first inning
after the Giants had scored one nun.
Brown succeeded Pfeister and only al
lowed four hits in eight and half in
nings.
The gathering of the vast crowd
which witnessed the contest for the
premier honors of the National league
was picturesque in the extreme. At
daybreak the enthusiasts began to as

Denunciation of Little Value.

It is well that the growth of federal
expenditures in our rapidly growing
nation should be subject to searching
and persistent scrutiny, so that abuses
may be extirpated and extravaganza
nipped in the bud. Newspaper readers
will remember what protest went up
at the last session over the ruthless
way in which Speaker Cannon slaugh-
tered the expectations of members and
department heads. To keep the appro
priations down TO the lowest possible
limit was one &c the laudable ambi
tions of the speaker and the senate
leaders. Honest and pertinent crit
cism, as we have said, is necessar,
and wholesome; but not much benef
can be derived by Mr. Bryan or hi
party by Loose and reckless denuncif
tion of extravaganza where little i
any extravaganza can be shown t
exist.

LAs- THE RISK TOO GREAT.

Several reports which we have no
ticed recently tell Of very serious acci-
dents which befell little girls Of ten
years while helping In some of the
farm operations. One had her feet cat
off through unwisely getting in fro::t
of q mower hitched to nervous horses.
another had an arm frightfully man
gled from getting 1t caught in the rec!
of q manure spreader. while third
girl, somewhat older, lost her life
while driving team of horses through
q breaking of the h2yfo-k rope. In
view of accidents of this kind. which
are Of frequent occurrence ell over the
country, 1t Is well for TIE parent t.
remember that considerable risk Is in
volyed in the handling Of most farm
machinery. even for one who Is strong
and experienced. and that the likell
hood of injury increases many fold
when inexperienced boys and girls take
the mans place. We believe 1t is right
and proper for children to help in al
ways that they can III to the limit OF
their strength and ability and that, a:
a rule, they like to do so. but care should
be taken that this work Is not too
heavy for their strength or Of an eZtr:
hazardous nature.

THE BOY AND COLLEGE.

At this season Of the year, a shor
time before the schools and colleges o
the land open for their years work
there is many boy who is debatin;
the question as to whether it will b'
worth while for him to go to college
No wonder that he scratches his head
for the problem is not an entirely sim
pie one, several factors entering il
and serving to make an affirmative o
negative decision the wiser one. In {
general way 1t Is true that there Is
probably no money that young mar
spends that fetches him larger o.
more satisfactory return on the amount
invested than that put into getting IN
education, and this holds whether It l.
along the line of the professions, lib
eral arts, along technical lines or il
specialization In animal husbandry, ag,
r1culture or horticulture. The returns
may not be apparent at once, but the
increased capacity which the educa
tion gives will mean an increased sal
ary as soon as he becomes adjusted in
the work for which he has prepared
himself. There Is a never supplied de
mand these days for young men of
worth and character who are well
equipped along the lines mentioned.
In view Of the opportunities which are
open, the chief questions to be deter
mined would seem, therefore, to be
fhnon frnrpoIfo{nYr offorffnO IN
It is probably fair to say that 1t will
pay the boy to go to college and will
be worth the trouble on the part of the
parents to send him IL he cares enough
for the opportunities which college life
affords to work for them. II he does
not prize them to this extent-this on
the assumption that the entire means
are not at hand to defray the expenses
Of such course-he would probably
do better to stay at home.
There will be hours In the college
life of the lad who Is working his way
through school when it will be very
trying for him to be moving lawns.
bucking wood or doing other work in
his spare hours when bis fellow STU
dents are participating in athletic
sports or otherwise spending their
time in recreation. But this handicap
Is more apparent than real, its harsh
ness mellowing or largely disappear
ing as college days recede. In conclu-
sion, it Is pertinent to suggest that
the financial Is not the only point that
should be considered. The college
trained man may or may not acquire
great wealth, but If bis training is
what it ought to be 1t will enable
him to get more out of life and put
more into IL for others, as well as
make him more influential and capable
as a man and citizen.

Bryan's Chances i'm Ohio.

1t is a singular fact that in 1896
Mr. Bryan got 474,SS2 votes and that
in 1900 he got exactly the same vote.
The Cincinnati Enquirer says "a most
curious and remarkable showing
not one vote did he lose and not one
vote did he gain in the pollings four
years apart He polfed the largest
Democratic vote ever cast in the state
from its organization until this time.
Here is the vote for president in
Ohio in the last five presidential cleo
tions:
Total vote 1888. 1885, 1868
Total vote 1892. ......... S50,164
Total vote 1896. ...... .1,014,292
| Total vote 1900. ....... .1,O4O,073
Total vote 1904. 1,000, 1868
Even in 1905, when the Democrats
elected Pattison governor, he got
I,016 less votes than Bryan got in
1896, and many Republicans who op-
posed Bryan supported Pattison
What does it mean? The late Senator
Jones always believed that in 1896
Bryan carried Ohio and that the big
vote was padded one. Inasmuch as
the Ohio vote increased only 1929!
from 1888 to 1892, whereas from 1S9:
to 1896 the vote increased 163,909
The total vote then fell off in 1900 anG
in 1904 it was still much lower thar
in 1896 What will the vote be thi!
year? Do not these figures rather
indicate that Senator Jones theory
that the vote had been padded wa!
more than a suspicion?
If Bryan polled more votes in Ohio
, in 1896 against Ohio's most popular
son than any other Democrat eve,
received will he not poll more il
:, 1908 than his Republican opponent
, 1t looks that way.
