MORALES, ARIZONA, U. s. A.

i1s Tions which framed those great and statesmanlike instruments one IS struck always by the large propor-
 rion of men who figure nowhere else in the history of their state
 nor of their time. Upon the funda-
 mental laws of their states are their
 names written in imperishable let
 ters; but nowhere beside, unless one delves down into the unwritten
 history of their cities and commun-
 ities, and there the investigator
 finds that they were always men of affairs who ranked high in the es-
 timation of their fellow men. They
 cared not for the paltry prizes of
 political strife, and except to vote, and occasionally attend a nom-
 mating convention they never
 figured in politics, and in no way
 were they classed as politicians.
 Yet when their people came face to
 face with the responsibility of framing a fundamental law to gov- ern the generations yet unborn they were the men who were called
 to the seats of the mighty to repre-
 sent there constituencies who were
 satisfied with none but the best.
 They were the great lawyers of
 their time, the leading business
 men in their communities, the
 prosperous and progressive farmers
 and planters. Any jim crow law
 yer or hack politician would do to
 go to the legislature or fill other
 official position; but when it came
 to the great work of framing the
 basic instrument of the civilization
 they were to build the people pass
 ed by the politicians, the office
 seekers and office holders and took
 the men who ranked head and
 shoulders above them. Such mer
 as Bracey Curtis were chosen; and
 upon Monday last the republican
 convention of Santa Cruz county
 in emulation of the lofty examples
 of the past offered their people g
 man the best fitted of all in tho county to fill and adorn the exalted post for which he has been named The nominee, who is a native o New England, is about thirty-nin'
 years of age, has shown himself al ways one of the progressive, activ, , business men of Nogales and Sant' Cruz county. He is the presiden of the Nogales and Santa Cru County Board of Trade, and sine,

 Mir. Curtis is a product of the New England town meeting, grew to manhood under operation of that system of government, and is thoroughly familiar with and be- liever in the principles involved therein. When the Young Mems Republican Club of Santa Cruz county, of which he was an organ izer and is very active member, took up investigation and discus sion of the principles of popular government, enunciated in the splendid declaration of principles that was adopted by the conven- tion Monday, Mir. Curtis took a prominent part in advocacy of their adoption, declaring that in examination of the system he found himself upon familiar ground and dealing with first principles.
 Nor is the platform adopted by
 the republican convention Monday
 an insincere bid for popular favor
 or a device to catch votes. It was
 adopted first in an open meeting of the Young Mems Republican Club,
 held in the court room at the court
 house with doors and windows
 wide open, and the court room
 crowded with earnest and en-
 thusiastic republicans, MT. Curtis
 among them. At one meeting a

 pointed. At a latter meeting that committee presented its report, and
 three hours were devoted to an in.

LINCOLN HARD RUN

In the l3 inning game which was
one of the best contests which has been
seen on the local diamond for several
years, Lincoln High School, of Port
land, defeated the Hood River High
School base ball team by score of a
to 3. The Portland boys put up a
strong game, and the local lads were
there thousand to meet them. The
city lads led off the second inning by
making tally and repeated the opera
tion in the fifth and seventh. 1t
looked like their game until the
last half of the ninth inning, when
Thompson, who pitched excellent ball,
made little balloon ascension and
the local lads squeezed in a couple of
runs.
Stockton twirled a fine game for
Hood River and seemed to be just as
good at the finish of the long contest
as when sit commenced. Edgar Franz,
the little Hood River backstop, nailed
all the curves which Stockton threw
and became the star of the game by
getting four hits and by heady base
running scoring two of the runs for
his team. In the first extra session it
looked as though Hood River would
get the victory with two men on bases
and only one out, but Morse and Bell
each took long chances to steal to
third and failed to make it, closing
the inning. In the next inning, Franz
hit out a three bagger, but
that was as far as he was able to
travel and in the last two sessions the
local boys went out in regular order
and when Shay muffed long fly in the
thirteenth, the visitors came across
with the winning tally.

there VI sufficient funds to pro-
vide fo, raj trophies worth win
ming TIL spirit is by no means con-
ined to the officers of the corps. The
men take great interest in the work
and som" have requested permission
to pass around the hat among the

yiding a Marine Corps Trophy for en-
listed men. and if permission IS gwen
the prospect is good thai prize even
handsomer than the Marine corps
trophy viii he secured.
That the Marine Corps has gone 10
to ritle-practice thoroughly was GEM
onstr2ted last season by their careful
preparations. Early in the summer
more than 100 enlisted men were Sc
lected from the brightest ana most apt
of the riHemen of the corps IN all parts
of the world and organized into camp
on the Sea Girt. \. J.. range where
the New Jersey authorities gave them

While these matches were not so large
ly attended the competition was al
most as brisk as at Camp Perry for
the cream of the shooting world was
there. At Sea Girt the Marine Corps
carried off the Hale Match with Cor
poral Peterson with a perfect score.
Corporal Hagen also made a perfect
score but lost to Peterson in the shoot
off. The officers and Inspectors
Match was won by Capt d. c. NC
Dougal, while the team won the NC
Alpin Trophy Match and finished
very close second in the Dryden Match.
After the close of the Sea Glrt
matches in September the activities
of the corps were transferred to
to Stump Neck, near Indian Head,
Md, which is some 80 miles down the
Potomac. Here an ideal spot has been
found for target range and the offl-
GERS and men are busy grading, put
ting in targets erecting buildings and
shacks. and otherwise fitting up
range which they propose shall be
model. 1t is unlikely that National
Match will ever he held there, but 1t is
large enough for Interstate matches
and for the National Rife Association
Matches if the latter are not held in
connection with the National Match
es; and when the range is in working
order it is proposed to invite the rifle
men of adjoining states to matches on
the Marine Corps range. 1t is likely
that it will be used to some extent also
for school-boy outdoor tournaments.

new FOOTBALL RULES
Unsatisfactory SO FAR

That the new rules for football will
again have to be doctored is the con-
sensus OF opinion of students of the
college game who have studied the
last efforts OF the rulemakers art and
have seen the new game tried out this
fall. True. il is trife early to make
any final statement as to the merits of
the rules that have been trimmed and
patched to meet the demands of fana-
ties who are always out to knock the
'rahrah" sport, but the chorus of COM
plants that is already coming in sound
like a knell for some of the restrictive
rules at least.
The popularity of the game among
all classes of youngsters who love a
rough sport has taken football into
high schools and academies where un-
dersized and immature boys are used
to fill up the team to make up an elev-
EN-. The results have brought the an
nual howl from parents and fanatics
who wish to kill the game for reforms
sake If each state would pass n few
strict laws requiring football candid
ates to pass a physical examination
and be IS vars of age, much of this
death statistics business that fills the
newspaper columns every fall, with
the attending howl for reformed foot
ball would be stopped and the game
could be kept near enough like that
of the preceding season so that old
players would have to learn new
game.
The adjustment of the push-and-
pull game takes away the finished
! team play that coachers and players
have been striving to develop for tho
past decade. 1t is apparent after
watching the early games that event!
matched teams would have great diff
ficulty in scoring and that the tricl
plays would have more important
part i'm football than ever before.
The division of the game into fou
periods is also receiving much crit.
cism from players. The game Ii
slowed up materially and players
claim that any conditioned player car
stand the long halves. and those wh'
cannot have no place i'm the game. Th'
training is going to be sighted ant
each rest after a grueling period leave
the player stiff and slow for the star
of the next session.
Dr. Carl williams declares the new
rules put too great burden on thu
offense and he will try at the mex
session of the rules committee to hav'
the distance TO be gained in three
downs cut from ten to five yards.
