PLAYING BALL

Fans Are Busy Figuring
Out EVENING STARS
Query.

Fans are playing baseball just now
with pen and pencil. That EVENING
STAR query is keeping the bugs busy
early and late. Up to date there are
several good answers to the question,
but those who were trying to figure it
out are not satisfied.
Some of the letters received are charts
with nothing but figures to prove that
the writer has the correct dope.
The question is: What are the larg-
est number of hits and the greatest
number of bases a team can make in
one-half inning without scoring a run?''
This is how some of the JAMS dope it
out: -

Organization Is Now the Second
Largest in the United

There is nc more enthusiastic motor
list in the State than Paul E. Heller,
president of the New Jersey Automobile
and Motor Club. Long before automo-
biles came into general use he was the
owner of one of the best cars on the
market, and his interest in the sport
has increased, rather than diminished
since then.
Mr.. Heller was elected president of
the New Jersey Automobile and Motor
Club last May, and at once devoted all
his energies to the work of increasing
the membership. Principally through
his efforts the roll of members was in
creased from about 800 to 1900, and the
club is now the second largest of its
kind in the country. Mr.. Heller is a
member of the firm of Heller Brothers,
file and steel manufacturers. At the
present time he is travelling through
the South, and is not expected home
o the next ten days.

ENTIRE STATE IS
INTERESTED IN
OUR AUTO SHOW
Nearly a Thousand Dealers
Visit the Exposition, and
Many Join Trade Assn.

Nearly one thousand automobile deal
ers from all parts of the State thronged
the local automobile show in the Essex
Troop armory yesterday afternoon and
evening, and as a result of their visit
nearly forty sub-agencies were created.
1t is estimated by the leading exhibit
tors at the show, who control the en-
tire output for the different cars that
the sub-agencies will sell about one
hundred cars during the year
AS dealers night was arranged es-
pecially for the members of the trade,
1t seemed as though they all too adj
vantage of the opportunity to visit the
show and almost every city and town
in this State was represented. Some
spent the entire day at the show, while
others remained only during the after
Don They were entertained by the
members of the New Jersey Automobile
Trade Association.
The main feature of the show pro-
gram yesterday was the meeting of the
executive committee of the New Jersey
Automobile Trade Association, which
was held in the armory building at l
o'clock in the afternoon. The meeting
was presided over by President George
Paddock and matters pertaining to the
automobile trade were discussed. The
principal business transaction was the
election of a number of dealers as
members of the organization. Three
local automobile dealers became active
members and a number of accessory
concerns will be enrolled as associate
members.
The local show has proven a boom to
the organized automobile dealers of the
State, who have, by their successful
operation OF the exposition, aroused an
interest throughout the trade which
bids fair to bring every dealer in New
Jersey into the organization. The bene-
fits derived from his organization are
numerous. They not only uphold trade
prices, but every member who be-
longed to the association, prior to the
announcement of the present show,
will benefit financially through his con-
nection.

They fiddle and dance while

This oligarchy of wealth, built

RACE PROBLEM YET TO BE SOLVED


Washington, Jan. 20. Senator
Frazier of Tennessee spoke today
on the Brownsville affair and op-
posed the passage of any one of
the pending bills for the re-enlist-
ment of the negro soldiers of
the Twenty-fifth regiment, who
were discharged with out honor
by the president. Senator Fra
zier's remarks were of especial
interest. as he was member of
the Committeeon Military At
fairs, which investigated the
Brownsville incident, his views
being those of Southerner who
had an intimate knowledge of the
negro race.
Whenever, dec Jared Mr.. Fra
zier. any question arises affect
ing the negro there are certain
people, including the negro him.
self, who seem to thiuk that he
should be delt with in an ex-
ceptional and unusual way; that
he is to be treated as the ward
of the nation and mnst be the
constant object Of its care and
solicitude.
No greater wrong can de done
the negro and no gaeater injury
can be inflicted upon the country
as a whole than to impress upon
the negro such false and er-
roneous teachings. Those who
have been instrumental in plac-
ing the entire negro population of
the country in the attitude of de-
Tending the criminals on their
race, have assumed a grave re-
sponsibility indeed. They have
| inflicted a lasting Injury upon the
country and upon the negro him
self.
If those people in every section
of the country who are especially
solicitous for the negro's we'll
fare would by act and word
teach the negro that he is to be
shown no exceptional consider
alton but must stand or fall in
his own conduct and merit alone
they would render him incalcul-
able benefit and the country a
lasting service.
Analysing the testimony taken
in various Investigations, Mr.. Fra
zier said there was no question
as to the guilt Of the soldiers of
the Twenty-fifth regiment. He
justified the president in his dis
charge of the entire body of
troops because of the impossible
lity of fixing the guilt npon par
ticular soldiers
Speaking of the incentive OF
the soldiers for the commitment
of the crime he said:
mo one not familiar with the
real character of the negro race
knows or can fully appreciate the
| intensity of feeling with which
he resent any apparent discrlml-
nation against him on account of
his race and color. This is stri k
ingly illustrated in the intense OPP
position Of the negro to those
laws in effect in some states pro-
viding for the separation of the
races in railroad coaches, even
whera the accommodations are
equally and exactly alike. ltWa5
admitted by many of the soldiers
in their testimony that this sub
ject, together with the subject Of
other indignities which they
claimed had been inflicted upon
some of them, were frequent
matters of discussion in the bar
racks of the soldiers. f."

ness. | recall with gratitude
and pray God | may never for
get their loyalty and fidelity to
those whom they served and loved
during the turmoil and strife and
bitterness of the Civil war;
Speaking of the treatment OF
the negro by the people of the
South, Mr.. Frazier said:
II would not be entirely frank
if did not say that upon certain
phases of the race question |, in
common with the rest of the
South, have stood, and l believe
will ever stand, firm and un-
alterable. First, never again will
the negro race be allowed to
politically dominate and CONTROL
a sovereign state of this Union.
To do so would be to enthrone
ignorance and give it dominion
over intelligence and to bring
back the rapine and utter reckless
debauchery of the reconstruction
era.
Second, the social barrier
which separates the races will
never be lowered. 10 do so
would destroy the purity and in
tegrity of the white race, and
shock the sensibilities and out
rage the moral sense of the Cau-
casian race the world over.
For forty years, in patience
and kindness, the people of the
South have wrestled with this
problem" he said in conclusion.
1T is still unsolved. What the
end will be, only God in his in
finite wisdom can see.
Shall it be that the black race
shall be deported? If feasible, it
would remove the last remain
ing barrier to complete the unity
of the American people.
Shall it be race, war, bloody,
fierce, exterminating q war for
the survival of the fittest2 God
forbid.
Shall It be amalgamation and
the unspeakable horrors of
corrupted and inferior race? To
allow it would be to destroy that
civilization which is alone our
strength and pride.
Shall it be that the two races
will dwell together and yet apart
in peace and harmony? To do
so. without the one race dominat-
ing and ruling the other, would
be to belle the universal verdict
of racial history. / do not know.

An effort to invoke the referendum
on the Agricultural College OF Oregon
has fallen fiat, fate which it most
Justly merited. The movement was
started in a spirit of malicious venge
fulness because of the failure of the
legislature to appropriate for the nor
NAL schools as it did for the larger
state institution. Cause for vexation
and disappointment there certainly
was, but this did not warrant the
effort which was initiated at once, to
still further cripple Oregon's educa-
tional system by shutting off also, il
possible, the support of the state agri-
cultural college. Dark as the normal
school situation appears to be, time is
gradually bringin g about a solution
of that vexed question. The situation
will not be helped however, nor the
desired solution hastened, by an effort

states educational machinery.
