dered, and Going to Do His

The following story appeared in the
Lincoln Star of Lincoln, Neb., relative
to R. G. Pickering, one of Manager
Jack Tighe's most promising candi-
dates for the Islanders pitching staff
this year:
''R. G. Pickering, the Ulysses young
ster, who was Guy Green's star twirler
with the Indians last summer, has de-
clined to play with Rock Island in the
Three-Eye league. after accepting
terms, and says he will stay with the
Indians. The Rock Island club will
lose a promising pitcher if Pickering
holds to his refusal to report With
Guy Green's aggregation last year n.
defeated long string of the strongest
semi-pro clubs in the central states
The Lincoln management wanted Pick
ering, only to discover that he had ac-
cepted Rock Islands terms, which
blocked the deal"
Says He VIII BE Here All Right.
The ex-Indian twirler cut the story
out and mailed it to the Islander man
ager with the explanation: This paper
seems to know more about my plans
than l do. l will be in Rock Island to
report for practice whenever You
want me, and l am going to do my
best to make good"

a major league team secures a minor
player and wishes to dispose of him.
that the minor club from which he
comes, will have to inform the major
club within five days if they desire to
take him back. Murphy recently said
that he had purchased a minor and

not write any disposition of their
claims, as are provided for in the

When the insurgent Democratic
convention meets in Nashville on
Wednesday, let them not in their
enthusiasm forget that they are
Democrats and that Democracy
means government by the people"
and that the word Democratic means
"benefiting the common people. :"
Neither word refers to a faction or
a part of the people. consequently
the whole people must be considered
in whatever action is taken.
Let them. therefore. meet in a
spirit of fairness to the element OF
Democracy which has been opposed
to them. and let them remember
that most of that opposition has
been honest. Some of it has been
of the self-seeking variety. it is true.
but that is a comparatively small
element and not by any means con-
fined TO one faction. There are
Office seekers in both, but they do
not dominate either.
Let there be. therefore. a real re-
organization of the DEMOCRACY Of
Tennessee on lines that need not
continue to estrange those of diyerg
ing opinions. The election laws, we
feel, are where they belong-in the
hands of the people. The election
power has been taken from the
hands of the governor, power
which four years ago Patterson him
self said mo honest governor would
want and no other kind should
have"
The News-Scimitar has never be-
lieyed in the existence of any pact
between the insurgents and the Re-
.publicans. Certainly none was made
between the mass of voters. whose
wishes are to be considered, and
nothing short of actual proof or ad-
mission will convince us of the ex-
istence of one between the leaders.

platform represents the majority of

he will be elected.

CALEB POWERS

The end OF one OF the most roman
tic as well as the bitterest political
contests in the history of Kentucky
came yesterday with the nomination
of Caleb Powers for congressman in
the Eleventh district over the in
eumbent, d. c. Edwards. by upward
of 1000 majority.
Caleb Powers will be remembered
as the former secretary of state. who
was indicted for completely in the
assassination of William Goebel,
three times convicted in the circuit
court and three times reversed by
the court of appeals. The affair was
made much OF by the Edwards fac
ton in the campaign; but again Ken
tnckisns BY large majority declared
that the GOebel incident is closed.
Democratic state leaders averred
and we're believed by many partlsans

a Republican conspiracy. Republi-
