REPUBLICANS FACE A CRISIS.

almost Inevitable that the census bin
vetoed by President Roosevelt will
come up for hnal passage. either az Il
was passed by the Sixtieth congress or
amended Ia meet the objections stated
In the veto. The work OF the census
bureau cannot well wait for the regu.
lar session.
The Importance OF the census in
making the basis for distribution
among the states OF representation In
congress and the election OF president
and vice president Is 80 great that
every person employed in taking u.

service rules 20 some thousands of
census employees left exempt by the
bill as Il passed in the last congress

ought certainly 10 be amended in this
particular before it becomes a law.
II seems that everything Is cut and
dried for the passage In the house of
whatever tariff bill President Taft and
Speaker Cannon may agree upon. By
compromise or otherwise. The bar.

ton. The increasing extravaganza OF
the last eight years has brought the
Republican party to the necessity OF
raising more money. either By an un.
popular bond issue or by stili more
unpopular taxes. The needed rev.
enue might be provided by revising
the tarin with n view more 20 revenue
than 10 protection. but neither PresI.

depart from the principle OF protec.

struaale Clearly pefned.

No new congress in the history Of
the United States has ever had a more
direct commission from the people TO
tighten tax burdens than the coming
one. The west is ahame with tariff
reform sentiment. The struggle re.
solves itself into one between the
money power and the masses. The
predatory trusts have the forts. the
big guns and the ammunition. Not
only have they the munitions OF war.
but they own the ablest generals and
strategical captains.
Pitted against them Is the dlsor.
ganized body OF American consumers.
The people know what they want. but
their campaign Is necessarily against
an intrenched enemy. The people ara
compelled TO rely ON the dominant
political party's redemption OF it,
pledges. They have no reason as yet
10 doubt Taft's sincerity.

COLONIAL BOWLERS

Have Nice Schedule and
Teams Are Very Evenly
Matched.

After one Of the most successful sea-
sons OF pin spiiling last year the Colonial
Bowling League Is again seen in action
for the coming season of 19O0-191O. This
league, although containing only six
teams. was one of the most interesting
bunch Of bowlers that ever participated
throughout last season. having many a
hot contest for the deciding score.
The interest shown by the members OF
the league has given it great support In
upholding the organization among the
leading leagues of the District. The
teams. which number six, are composed
of the Pioneers, the champions of last
year: the Puritans, Knickerbockers. Man
hattans. Pilgrims and the Iroquois, the
latter taking the place of the Virginians,
which have dropped from the league. The
schedule which Is composed of seventy
Ave games, calls for three games week,
with each team participating in one game
in the same space of time. Following Is
the schedule for the 1909 and 1910 season:

Speed and Aggression Won
for the Quaker
Team.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch 10 Inc star.
ANNAPOLIS, Md. October 16.-with
q sorely crippled team Navy took de-
feat from Villanova on Academy Field
and came dangerously near to being
whitewashed this afternoon. The score
of II to s does not show by how much
the visitors bested the locals. The
Nays lone tally was made on one of
those chances of foot ball game which
occur when a team fumbles. With the
score II to against them, and when
sorely pressed. the Middies resorted
agin to punt. Thompson muffed the
catch and King fell on the leather for
Navy after it had rolled behind the goal
posts. Battle kicked the goal that earn
ed the final point. Even the partisan
spectator was forced to admit that VII
lanova played the better game.
While the visitors clearly outweigh
ed the Middies, it was not on beef that
they won. Speed and aggression, with
a knowledge of new foot ball, were
the winning factors. AS neat and about
as unexpected a forward pass as was
ever seen on the Navy field assured the
visitors their first tally. After at
tempting a straight forward pass from
quarter to end and being penalized be-
cause the play was messed, villanova
put over a trick formation and Navy
hit hard. While the fake went through
left tackle Kelly shot a forward pass
clear across the other wing for 80 yards
to the waiting hands of Mccormack
Wilson downed the big visitor just be-
fore Tore he crossed the line, and when
again Referee Bergen and Umpire
Maurice enforced a penalty that shat
tered Navy hopes: Dalton. the husky
punter and ground-gaining half of the
ing his hands illegally. On the next
play Barr got over, but Kelly failed
the goal. Before the half ended Villa
nova had rushed the leather down to
the 30-yard line, where Barr made an
unsuccessful try for drop goal.
The second half saw a good bit of punt
ing before real foot ball began on an ex-
change of punts. Wilson, who had been
playing a star game for the sailors. mis-
judged one of kelly's twisters and the Wis.,
itors nabbed the sphere. AS though try
ing to offset his tumble. the little Navy
quarter stopped the next play hard and
received an injury which placed him hOrs
du combat. and will probably keep him
out of the game for several weeks. The
touchdown he had STAYED off temporarily
had been made, and nearly fifteen min
utes had gone by before Willie came
back to earth and the surgeons thought
1t safe to even allow him to be lifted into
the ambulance and carried to the hos
pital. He is said to be doing nicely to-
night, but will possibly be out of the game
for some time. Following Wilson's in
jury came two other blows to the Middies.
In an effort to check the steady advance
of the visitors Coach Howard sent both
Capt. Meyer and Fullback Richardson in
from off the sick list. Neither of them
could stand but three mix-ups before COM
ing out with their old injuries SO aggra-
waited that very careful nursing will be
necessary to get them in shape to enter
the Princeton game October 30.
The line-up:
