Danvilles with Uncle Joe as umpire?
It was noised about in baseball circles
yesterday that the Danville capital
seating capacity OF the grounds to
twenty times their present size in an
ticipation of the influx of fans" who
will go down there to see the speaker
Of the house apply his ironclad rules
to the great national game.
Insurgents Show Joy.
In the ranks of the insurgents there
is untold joy. Already, though the
news is less than twenty-four hours
old, those men who are still smarting
from the severe application of the
Cannon rules at the last session of
congress are smiling with glee at the
prospects. In their minds they picture
him, in pad and mask, the inevitable
long cigar protruding at the usual an
gle through the bars, as he stands be-
hind the catcher.
In Imagination they see him stand
ing cold and unperturbed in the
midst of an hungry mob of players.
threatening him with fist and bat, on
account Of some close decision. They
think they see him trying to apply the
rules OF the house regarding recogni-
ton. as with calm serenity he points
his gavel at Capt. Smith" of the non
protesting team and. in strident tones.
announces, Il recognize Mr.. Smith Of
Danville.''
But even Uncle Joe's" most vim
dictive political enemy draws the
kindly veil Of silence over the picture
that comes to his mind Of what will
happen then.
What does political preferment
amount to when Bill Murphy" is out
in the ninth on 4 close decision. and
the game Is lost. Will the crowd OF
fans hesitate to assail Uncle Joe with
their usual missiles or to invoke their
gods against him simply because of
his speakership. Will they cease to
cry. Kill the umpire Beat his block
off," You're a mutt" and other
choice fan phrases? Will they? The
insurgents answer with a smile.
Feel Lash, Then See 4 Game.
1T is barely possible Uncle joe will
triumph over us and become speaker
OF the next congress-" say the insur-
gents. but when things grow dull In
Washington and wa feel the lash of
his opposition, think OF the consola-
ton. even pleasure, that We will find
rs We look forward to the rift in the
clouds when congress is over and we
can journey down to Danville to see
Uncle Joe umpire baseball game"
Others ask whether it may not be
that the speakers baseball experience
win have some effect on the rules OF
the house.
Three motives have been suggested
as the reason why Uncle Joe is about
to embark in this new enterprise. The
first one comes from Danville mer-
chants. who declare that 1t Is simply
4 means Of advertising their thriving
city. Another suggestion comes from
Uncle Joe's arch enemies. who assume
that he IL about to relinquish his
throne and, therefore. has sought out
Z field In private life that viii present
equal opportunities for strenuousness.
The third suggestion Is that Uncle
jos" ID going to build up an organixa-
ton OF enthusiastic fans which viii be
strong enough 70 return him to power.
