Just IA points behind Waterbury today, and going after that crowd like a flash. Guess the Mechanics are not the big noises now in turning in the victories. Yesterdays was their fourth straight, while there is no reason in the world why the fifth should not be recorded today. Those Wings never did have any license to trim our Speed Boys, yet they al- ways give us hard tussle to win. However, they did manage to hang a string of zeroes on us for six inn ings yesterday but the boys came across with the necessary in the sev- enth, winning the old game, New Ha- ven being unable to shake their ze- roes for nine innings. The New Ha- ven Journal-Courier says of the glor- ious victory:
 Things sailed along nicely yesterday in the game between New Haven and Bridgeport at Savin Rock for just six innings, with neither team hit ting the ball hard enough to break it if it had been an egg. Bridgeport won it, to 0. Clunn and Reis1gle were enjoying a pitchers battle and the players on the respective sides were retired with clock-like regularity, the only slight disturbance occurring in the fifth when Bunyan led off with a double, was sacrificed by Belden to third .and died at the plate in an at- tempt to score on Reisig1s long fly to Eley. The Bridgeport rightfielder whipped the ball to Kocher, just like our players wouldn't have done, and Long and Honest John was caught yard off the platter, after beautiful Jumping dive into the armor-plated catcher of the Brass City. aggrega- tion.
 This was the only instance when local player dashed up the third base line. with the intention of scoring run, but it was not the only time one had a chance. Yes, there was just one other instance, when New Haven had a man on third, this being in the seventh inning. Frank Burke was sent in in place of Cough who had whiffed the ozone On his two trips to the plate Burke got in the way of one of Clunn's shoots and for being the martyr was allowed to hobble to first. Sherwood worked C1unn for pass and when Bunyan sacrificed both men a base. it looked as though the game might be tied up, for it was the seventh in which Bridgeport sent her two runs across. In keeping with the ability of the Caricatures to rap out timely hits, Belden went out on a weak grounder, to the pitcher and Reisigl died on roller to Hall. At no other stage of the game did the local team thraten to score.
 There was only one inning in which Bridgeport figured very much, but this inning the seventh, was the only one in which any hustling was need ed to be done. Crooks opened the inn

BIG LEAGUE CLUB
 IS AFTER M'CANN
Successful Manager of Local Team Has Been Approached But He is Not Vouchsafing Any Information

Manager McCann of the local team, this morning confirmed the report that he had been made a tempting offer to manage one Of the major league clubs for next season.
 What club made you the offer7~ asked his questioner.
 That I'm not in a position to state" [" replied McCann.
 What league made you the offer, National Or American?"
 That also would be giving away secrets was the retort.
 cts true then that your services are in demand?"
 "Yes, I have been approached by an owner of one of the majors who have been conducted this season.
 Rather than cause any soreness on the part of the present manager hs asked me to withhold giving out the statement that he had been to see me. The offer is still good as have not yet given the owners of the club a final statement. As yet I am un- prepared to state what I will do in the matter. Things are stin in the fire"
 Manager McCann has stated that the Bridgeport team has been big paying investment to it's owners tf1fs season, that they will come out ahead though a stiff price was paid for the franchise and players. In his opIn- ion matters will shape themselves fn> to better returns next season.
 The chances are that McCann wiz stay right here where he is needed.

ISsThere Graft in the Union F.?

ID. j. Neil, editor of the Cooper
ator, has come out brazenly and ask
ed the hardworking farmers of
America to make up several hun
dred dollars" to pay for him a free
trip to Washington.
What does this look like to you,
brethren?
Let us look into this gigantic
"free-will Offering" or charitable
collection move.
In the first place Neil says his
paper 'tcirculates in thirty-five
States" and in the beginning of his
article he says: 81 shall go to
Washington as a delegate from the
Texas State Union" He says fur
Their: "The Co-operator has many

we must say that we have not heard
anything but bitter condemnation in
our travels over Arkansas. We do
know that there are hundreds of
good Union men who do not believe
these amendments carried, but that
fraud was practiced by some of the
officials. 1t is our opinion that I'M
der these circumstances a full and
complete report should be made,
showing just how each Local voted,
with the address of the secretary, in
order that any one desiring to do so
can verify the truth of the report A
copy of this report should be placed
in the hands of every local secretary.
We believe the individual members
Of the Union have a right to know
the details of every transaction made
by their officials. It may be argued
that the cost Of such report would
be too great, but we reply that the
cost will not be one-hundredth part
Of the benefit. The benefit will be
either one of two results:
First. If the report is true, it will
be proven so, and the confidence of
the members restored.

the fraud will be uncovered, and the
Union can act accordingly with it's
traitors.
We recommend that every Local in
Arkansas have meeting at once,
admitting all who were in good
standing before any of these new
measures were put into effect and
carefully discuss this question. If
you see fit, pass a resolution that
the report be made and send it to
the Executive Committee, also send
copy of the resolutions to this pa
per for publication.
Let no man quit the Union be-
cause he thinks some of the officials
are corrupt, but put his shoulder to
the wheel and help stamp out the
corruption. If any Local, or any
member, thinks any official is not
what he should be, let a resolution
be passed, demanding an investiga-
ton. We will maintain the integri-
ty of the Union at all costs, and de-
stroy the ggressor.-Union Educa-

the New York World We have at
tended two State meetings, and can
prove by two hundred delegates that
the CO-operatOr was never discussed
as an organ, nor was there ever a
proposition to make it SUCH More
than that, the then editor of the Co.
operator was in Little Rock last Au-
gust and could not even attend the
convention because
HE WAS NOT A MEMBER OF
THE FARMERS UNION.
This he told us himself, and had
cards and papers showing that he
was all he claimed.
1t is true, the Co-operator took
over the name and certain contracts
of the Union Tribune, but the Trib-
une did not, and could not, sell an
official capacity vested in it by $4,000
people, even if it had had such. But.
on the other hand, the Tribune was
not, never was, and never claimed to
Union of Arkansas.
Many times the founder of the pa
per, Brother Ben. L. Griffin, has told
his readers through the columns of
his paper why it was not, and could
not be, the official organ of the I'm
ion. That reason was, and is, because
an official organ, according to law,
must be owned by the institution or
association of which it is the organ.
According to the official heading of
the Co-operator, it is not even the
official organ of the Texas Union, but
commercial enterprise owned by a
corporation. 1t is only endorsed by
the Texas Union as a medium of
publication, the same as was this pa
per endorsed by the State Union Of
Arkansas in session in Little Rock
last August.
1t we understand the matter. and
we think we do, "The Co-operator
Publishing Company is a corpora
ton composed of those 'thigher-up'
of the State of Texas, and we fur
Their understand that they are CAPT.
talized with the small but neat little
amount of $4,000. The conclusion
to this point, then, is that these clev-
er, well-to-do gentlemen, of which
Mr.. Neil is the "Editor-in-chief," are
resorting to falsehood and deceit to
get business from Arkansas.
One more point: There have re-
Gently appeared in the columns of a.
well-known, reputable and thorough
ly responsible publication, serious
charges in which are mentioned the
names of certain well-known and
high officials in the Farmers Union.
Among these names that of D. J.
Neil, of Fort Worth, Texas. About
the only reply Neil has made to
these articles, is to deny them and
deal in unmanly personalities to-
ward the editor of the publication,
whom he calls a "Great Scold'' and
other equally unworthy epithets. It
matters not what our personal views
or political convictions may be in
answering an argument, we must
meet argument with argument and
fact with fact. To answer by I'M
proven denials and personal mud
Singing is, to our mind, sufficient
proof of guilt. The Jeffersonian is
publication responsible for what
it publishes, and Mr.. Watson is a
man whose integrity has never been
questioned. When charges come
from such source, they demand
consideration, and a great fair
minded public will consider them.
II these men are innocent, let them
force Tom Watson to retract with
the majesty of the law. If they do
not do this, nor even attempt it they
must accept at the hands of the peo-
