VANDERBILT OFFERS

NEW YORK, June Civilian K
Vanderbilt, IT., after a long talk with
Clifford B. Harmon. Captain Baldwin
Joseph Seymour. and others who have
been giving exhibition flights. has made
a definite offer 10 turn over TO the avia-
tors, II they would organize a profess
sionaI association. the long motor park
way where the Vanderbilt automobile
cup races now take place. lend the as
ISOLATION $4,000, and do everything pos
sible to make the organization a sue
cess
II the aviators were agreeable, Mr.
Vanderbilt said he stood ready 70 foot
all bills at the start, and make the nee
essary changes in the present automobile
course.
Besides furnishing the $4,000 as a
working capital. ne agreed 10 fence the
motor parkway, police il, erect grand
stands, roll the turf build fiyins machine
shells. hire mechaniclans, supply all the
gasolene, furnish automobiles for the
use Of the flying men. their mechan-
icians. and families, and pay all Incl
dental expenses, even TO the hiring OF
ticket takers and other course officials
In return Mr.. Vanderbilt said he would
want the first $4,000 that was taken in
from the sale OF tickets. SO as 20 be re-
imbursed for his original outlay Of cash.
but after that he would divide evenly
the amount taken in with the associa-

in making the proposition solely by the
fact that some such announcement was
needed 10 give the new sport a fair

opinion, much TOO small Tor big races
He suggested JhaJ the association. If

STANDING OF THE CLUBS.

comparison OF our present team and that
Of last year. The lineup has practically
remained the same. but McAleer has
taken this tail-end bunch. transformed
them into an aggregation scarcely recog-
nizable as last years team. and which
should cause the other clubs in the league
heaps Of trouble before the season is
over.
Their stick work has been improved
wonderfully the teams fielding is far
superior to that displayed in former
years, and the men are playing with a
dash and spirit which few teams in either
league can boast OF.
In the face Of these obvious changes
for the better, the mob starts its annual
howl And what IS the gist OF this out
cry? The pitching staff is on the blink
To be sure. it has not come up 10 our
wishes But. great Scott. to meet the
expectations Of the soreheads, Jimmy
McAleer should be a wizard.
Hasn't he accomplished a marvellous
feat by trotting out last years taiI-enders
and serving up an article Of baseball
which is almost new for the local fans2
At Norfolk every man on his pitching
staff displayed excellent form. and Mac
was justified In feeling that this depart
ment, as well as the other branches Of
the team, would meet with the approval
Of the Washington rOoters.
But in this respect McAIeer's homes
were not realized. and we think. with a.
little time, he can whip his pitchers into
shape as ably as he has brought the rest
Of the team around.
It must also be remembered that tho
Washington Club has played the majority
Of its games with two Of the strongest
teams In the league, namely. Boston and
Philadelphia, both OF whom figure 10 fin
ish one. two. three in the American
League race.

NOTES OF THE GAME.

Special to Tho Washington Herald.
New York. May 2.-The Washington
outfit, in the opinion OF the Philippians,
looked far more like ball club than at
any time last season. More compact and
better balanced everywhere.
To man up a tree. it looked as If
Washington got away the worst Of nearly
AL the close decisions Two or three Of
them, II they had been awarded 10 Nc
Aleer's gang, would have turned the tide
Vaughan. OF the Hmtops. is certainly
pitching in strange luck. He has now
started four times, pitched thirty-three
innings. and yet has not defeat or vic
tory on the official records.
McBride's error in the ninth. which
saved the lives Of the Hilltop crew, was
an awful thing 1t was a nun OF an
easy ny, under which he was roosting
comfortably
II Chase had missed that ball IN the
tenth, the game might have gone on 70
a darkness finish. as Hemphill would have
been caught standing up, with no chance
10 get away. Chase hit il hard and
straight. and Mcbride though realizing
that II was all over. chucked 20 first IN
a saddened way Unglaub making an
equally perfunctory and superfuous catch
of the throw.
Roach. one OF StaIIings' newest recruits.
broke in at short His performance was
far superior 10 that OF Mcbride both In
the field and with the stick.
Elberfeld got a great hand from the
crowd when ne came 20 bat The Kid is
we'll liked by those who love a peppery
player. and the Hilltop crowd was with
him strong
Cnglaub, in the second frame, was re-
tired In a most unusual fashion He hit
himself with a batted ball. Impossible
as the feat may seem, It was correctly
accomplished just the same Bob whacked
a grounder, and as he fed down the
line, the pesky thing. instead Of going on
across the inneld, leaped back in an IN
grateful fashion and slapped Robert on
the shins.
Johnsons work IN tanning Hilltop
players was picturesque and timely.
VII DA HIS tlHul A1H-oLL victims were
breezed when there were men on bases
and a hit would have been fatal
The double steal which Milan and
Schaefer pulled in the sixth was a corker
Both men timed their rush 50 Wen tha:
they were uncatchable. but Sweeney
fired anyway. presumably at the comet.
and nearly hit it. That wild heave meant
two runs.
Street got four men stealing. and #
looked 20 an unbiased judge as II he col
lected two Of the three who recorded
steals against his firing.
When Wolter slid for second in the
fourth. he ran his nose against McBrides
knee. II might be supposed that the
nose would suffer more damage IN such
a crash. but Mcbride limped for several
minutes, while VOTERS face was only
pushed out Of alignment for a little
while.

A MARKED CONTRAST.

The contrast between the position
OF the Democratic party and the Re-
publican party relative to the liquor
question, Is marked, and the latter
party cannot escape the import Of that
contrast. Mr.. Hawley, the Democratic
nominee for governor, says:
"The Democratic party Is now, as
IT always has been, a party that be-
lieves In the rule Of the people. We
believe that every effort should be
made ITO bring the governmental af-
fairs closer to the people and to let
the people determine them. If our
government is a reality, a government
OF the people, by the people, and for
the people, then every effort to bring
legislation nearer to the masses should
meet with the approval of us ALL"
Yet his party takes decided stand
FOR the continuance of the present
local option law and refuses to SUBJ
NIT to the vote Of the people whether
they shall have state wide prohibition.
TO the contrary, the Republican party,
believing the people to be the reposit-
DRY Of all political power, brings the
question to the people and leave them
to decide 1t, relying upon their integ-
rity and intelligence, advocating prac-
tically what Mr.. Hawley advocates
only theoretically. n
Consistency" is evidently not in
Mr.. Hawley's dictionary. Through
force of habit, the result of his avoca-
ton, he sees and seeks to see only one
side Of the question.-Sugar City
Times.
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1910-11-04

Now. as q matter Of fact, Mr.. haw-
ley's party has been more ready to
assume its ability to do things than
1t has to make good. In fact this is
its national. as we'll as its state, rec
ord. There is a wonderful difference
between theory and practice.
Some of the most beautiful thoughts
that have ever been drawn on the
canvass of possibility by the eager
pencil of hope have been those fine
utopian dreams looking to perfect con-
ditions for humanity. They were
sublime in their purpose, but when
placed on trial they went down to
ruin through their impracticability.
Their painters desired to accomplish
certain results. The results to be ac-
complished were their study rather
than the method to accomplish them.
Like "Barkis" Mr.. Hawley Is
"willin," but willing is not always do
ing. Mr.. Hawley's party, when given
a trial, failed and failed signally.-
