Congress can easily be brought to vote

plea was worn out long ago when the

preached, Never again" 80
In these advanced legislation times

in the Northwestern League, and the
third in the American or National
Leagues. Added to the travelling done
in actual harness in the playing season
the players go South in the early
spring and come North in zig-zag
