BIG RELIGIOUS" SCRAP
Newark Churches in Debate Over
 Matters of Doctrine

The Methodist and Christian churches of Newark are preparing to pull off Reno slugging match. To the Journal 1t is one of the un- solved mysteries why any think ing man who is really interested in doing good for the cause of the elevation and betterment of hu- manity can indorse such. And again we cannot understand how any man who is really and truly commissioned of God to preach the Gospel of Salvation to sim cursed world can lay aside his work and engage in combat with another of Gods ministers who is doing the best he can, according to the light he has, to help elevate mankind and make the world bet ter. It occurs to The Journal that God does not call men to His ministry to fight each other and dispute over trifling non-essentials, but to fight sin and wickedness, and point men to better way of of living. And it Is not necessary to leave Newark. or any other place in the world we have ever been, in order to find room and op- portunity for doing work for the Master in helping men to become better men and pointing them to the paths of righteousness, recti- tude and good citizenship-the life that God wants men to live.

MISSION OF COUNTRY PAPER
Mistaken Idea That it Should Not
 Discuss Public Questions.

Just exactly what is the mission of local country newspaper as a problem that some people seem to be interested in at times. The narrow view prevails among some folks that the home paper has no other duty than that of chronicling the fact that John Jones had visit ed the town or that John Smith is busy putting up new barn. The narrow view prevails among some folks that the local paper should take no part in the discussion of political questions or other mat ters that involve the public inter- ests, because of the fact that the local paper has readers of different opinions and gets its support from men whose opinions differ on pulp lie questions. This view of the matter is nothing if not silly, and will not be made the policy of any newspaper man who has firm grip on his self-respect. Sharp County Record.

Need of Lasen Tennis Reform
Voting Power in National Association Badly
Distributed According to Calhoun Cragin.

The proper significance and Importance
car never be attached 70 the actions or
delegates to this meeting until delegate
represents a specified number of club MEM
bers instead of merely a club. At present
each club, regardless of the size of it's
membership, has one delegate, and the vot-
ing power OF the West Side Tennis Club,
of this city, with nearly five hundred mem
bers, can be offset and cancelled by the
vote Of club of only twenty-five mem
bers.
No conclusive expression of opinion can
be expected from delegates selected under
such a system of representation, nor is 1t
al any time possible to determine whether
the elected officers of the national associa-
ton represent the minority or the majority
of lawn tennis players.
delegate should be allowed each club
for every twenty-five or fifty of its mem
bers and dues should be paid by clubs in
proportion to the number Of their dele
ga tes.
BY making the acceptance of additional
delegates optional with clubs whose size
warranted additional representation, the
country clubs would probably be obviated,
and it is doubtful if these kind of clubs
would be willing to pay for more dele
gates than would be sufficient TO represent
the lawn tennis playing portion of their
mem bershipS.
The votes now given to associations of
clubs should be abolished and all clubs
urged to individually become members of
the national organization. There might be
some advantage in keeping the associa-
tions together for the advancement of local
interests, but they should have no votes
or representation in the national associa-
ton.
The interest In lawn tennis seems to be
increasing, and purposed reforms. sugges-
tions and ideas show a corresponding
growth. Would it not be wise to make
insure a government by majority of ten
mis- players?

SLAVERY THE CRY.
Bloc To Be 4imcd on Coast
at ORGANISED Baseball.

San Francisco, Jan. EFF State Senator
Hartman is returned to the upper house of
the California Legislature, he will introduce
bill striking at the very heart of organized
baseball and calculated to nulify all exist
ing contracts between players and owners.
Hartman was once a baseball player him
self and he says his bill will be openly
aimed at organized baseball because he
believes il is nothing more or less than
baseball slavery. He will base his bill
upon the Thirteenth Amendment of the fed
eral Constitution, prohibiting slavery and
involuntary servitude.
The bill will declare in effect that ii is a
misGemeanor. the penalty to be fixed by
the Legislature, for any one to compel
baseball player to play with any club un-
less he wants to, until the expiration Of his
contract. The bill will refer. of course.
only to such contracts in California, but If
the courts of this state uphold II, it is
pected that the agitation will spread all
over the country.
