TAYLOR TAKES EXCEPTIONS
Denies That Lake Gathered in All
of the Likely YOUNGSTERS

Fred Lake, who recently resigned as
manager of the Boston Americans be-
cause of inability to agree on money
matters with Owner John l. Taylor is
generally regarded by the fans as the
man who secured all the likely young
talent on the Boston team John 1.
Taylor takes exceptions to such be-
liefs and comes out in a statement to
the effect that Harry Gessler and Pete
Wood are the only two men now on
the Boston pay roll picked up by
Lake.
George Huff picked up iris Speaker
for the team, while our own Jim"
Mcclure landed Harry Hopper and
Frank Arrelanes for the Red Sox. Ac-
cording to Taylor. Lake drew $500
as scout and $4,000 as manager He
was offered such a contract for this
year but wanted more money and
Taylor refused to stand for it,

JOHN siGELOW'S PROPHECY.

John Bigelow, former ambassador to
France, statesman, diplomatist and
author, declares he sees more pros
pect of a revolution than any reform
in our government" He made the
statement after noting that President
Taft. in his annual message, denied
that increased cost of living was due
to our protective tariff.
If a revolution ever does come In
this country, future historians will not
be brain racked due to difficulty in
finding causes tonwhich to attribute
the event. For, instance. acre are a
few features. of present-day condi-
tions which would no doubt be self-eX-
planatory to future generations:
l. Increase in cost of living from
three to II per cent annually, wages
remaining either stationary or show
ing but nominal increase, with result
that workingmen are gradually and
steadily forced to lower standard of
living.
.. National government taking no
step to decrease cost of living by re-
ducing import duties. but on the other
hand taking every opportunity to re-
wise tariff upward thereby assuring
further advances in prices.
s. National government taking alb
solutely no step toward breaking up
trusts which have been repeatedly
shown to be in existence in violation
of the antitrust law, such as the SUI
gar trust, the beef trust, steel trust
and harvester trust, which monopolies
are largely responsible for failure of
wages to increase proportionately with
the cost of living. rs
4. Demands of an increasing num-
Der of manufacturers of food products
tnecessaries) that their goods must be
sold by the wholesaler to the retailer
and by the latter to the consumer al
a fixed exorbitant price.
5. Smothering in committee on
rules of the house of representatives
of resolution providing for government
investigation of this practice.
6. Increasing frequency of destruc.
ton of foods in large cities in order
to maintain outrageous prices charged
for what is sold and consumed.
a. Action of combinations of man
ufacturers particularly cotton manu-
facturers) in agreeing to close mills
y for specified periods. thereby deprivins
workmen of employment, in order tc
tighten markets and force consumers
to Pay increased and unnatural prof.

Efficient Force.
It is generally recognized through
out the northwest that Walla Walla
has one of the most efficient and alert
police departments to be found. In ad-
dition to holding down the crimes that
might have been committed. Chief Da-
Wis and his men have ably assisted Of
ficers from other cities in securing
much wanted individuals who drlfted
into town, thinking they could elude
the blue-coats here, as well as those
of other cities.
With the opening of the new year
the department has, in the words OF
Day Sergeant Frederick Rocker, "the
situation well in hand" and are pre-
pared to make even better showing
than in the year just closed. Chief Da-
Wis has secured for his force a corps
eff never firing patrolmen and desk ser
geants, who are on the alert for any
thing that smacks of wrong doing, and
they have been unusually successful In
the past in running down clues that
have haen wired them from other cities
throughout the country
