From present indications it looks as
II the Detroit Tigers are out to make
a runaway race Of IL in the American
league. This time last season the Tig-
ers were in last place due mostly to the
poor work Of the pitchers. and it was
not until June that the twirlers came
into their own. This season IL is just
the opposite Nearly all of Jennings
slab artists are in splendid condition
and twirling grand ball. The work OF
George Mulin stands out as best. He
won the first five games with his clever
pitching. allowing but twenty hits.
Mullin made his professional debut with
the Wabash club OF the Indiana and
Illinois league in 1895. He continued
with the Wabash team in 1899. During
the season of 1900 he played with the
south Bend Qnd) Greens. an indepen-
dent team. In 1901 he was member
OF the Fort Wayne Western association
team, and he participated in forty
four championship games as pitcher,
winning twenty-five. That fall he sign
ed with both the Detroit and Brooklyn
clubs OF the rival major leagues, but
finally after much pulling and hauling,
landed with Detroit. No pitcher in the
business has a wider curve than Null
lin. and few have better Judgment and
control. He has fine speed. fields his
position well and is the heaviest hit
ting pitcher in the country. Detroit
regularly uses him for a pinch stunt,

THE SALARY BILL.

The bill published in our last
issue relative to placing county
officials on salary instead of al
lowing them to collect fees, has
created much interest in Dur
ham, and all sorts of suggestions
have been made.
1t is pointed out that Mr..
Bramham was a candidate on
this platform and that he was de-
feated and had this as an issue,
there fore the Democratic party
should allow such a measure to
pass.
Others have suggested that
possibly the measure was intro.
duced in this irregular Thy revre-
sentative from another county,
way in order that the measure
(, should not come up and be made
a law.
2 While we believe it to be q
good measure and would like to
see it become a law, we see nc
reason for having such a bill by
a state law-making body passed
for only one county. The question
is one that could be well made
general in its application ano
every county in the state profit
by it.
1t might be pointed out thai
possibly some counties do no
want such a measure, which i
doubtless true; but there is a
much justice in making SOM
county bear what they do no
want as allowing the representa-
tive from one county to vote tn
measure on another county
There is little reason to believ
that this bill, or any other wit
the same effect will be passed a
this session of the legislature
but the people are learning an
will demand it later on.
