HEYDLER DEFENDS

New York. March 31.-John Heyd-

defense Of the recent action of the
commission in rcinstating the catcher

I'm my opinion says he, the COM
mission could have not ruled other
wise. The alternative would have been
TO apply the provisions of rule A.
which would practically have carried
with IT. Il four Years suspension "h0
the elimination Of King from base
bail. Rule 40. J have always held was
a measure directed artihcially against

sional league as an outlaw league

would have been no recourse but %

is most fsir To- the player. Making y
mandatory on the player to return t'
Chicago and fulfill the last year oi
his three year contract ut the figure

angle Of baseball law J doubt 81 th'

UNCLE JOE

n UTE interesting but of no i'm
portant significance whatever was
" the vote by which Speaker Joseph
G.. Cannon was renominated in the
eighteenth congressional district in
Illinois on Thursday. No person well
Informed on matters in that district
believed for a moment that Cannon S
insurgent adversary, Mr.. Downs, had
a ghost of a show.
In the first place Uncle Joe's world
wide prominence was naturally mat
ter of pride to the people of his home
town and district. His ability never
being questioned, they liked to think
of the influence they vicariously ex-
erted in national and even in world
affairs, and they did not want to sur
render it by putting in a freshman to
take a subordinate place in congress.
Uncle Joe is, moreover, no slouch of
a politician. They say it's a caution
the way he has taken care" of the
boys" In the district jobs have been
passed around with fine discrimina-
tion, so that he who has not something
to be grateful for personally or because
of father, brother or cousin provided
for is a rare bird.
In the third place Uncle Joe saved
lot of the pork for his own district.
Every town with the shadow of ex-
cuse (and some with none) has been
remembered in the distribution during
the long years of his incumbency.
Danville, city of only $4,000 popu-
lation, has one of the finest federal
buildings in the country.
Finally, Uncle Joe is a great mixer,
a big asset for politician of the type
he essayed to be. Among the rural
lists he could wear a homespun suit,
chew a straw and talk crops with all
the unction of a son Of the soil, albeit
he is a millionaire banker. That a
rich man could be lest as common
as us" tickled the farmers, hence they
swore by him. Among the "horsey"
crowd Joe could cock his cigar at a
higher angle, swear with moro aban-
don and tell a little more salacious
story than those to the manner born.
In church circles he could roll his eyes
to heaven and quote scripture to beat
the band.
How could he loser

A souTHERNER's VIEWS

Editor Herald: I used to live in the
south, and remember as boy the OLD
school of thought teaching such doc
trine as Anything to beat Grant the
Democratic slogan when Greeley was
nominated in 1872 at Baltimore. All OF
us southerners have long since been
converted to the extent that we now
know that Grant didn't have it In for
the south after the war closed. The
leaders declared that Republican was
a foe to all good, and righteousness
was not ascribed to him unless he re-
pented and "jined" the Democrats. l
have consistently stood by southern
traditions and did not vote for MT.
Roosevelt, but really shed no tears over
his election. Perhaps with reference TO
him l was like the Methodist preacne,r
who In 1892 voted for Bidwell, PROM
btionist, and prayed that CleVelano
might win. r,,,,,, -, -
annlv to Mr.. Roosevelt. He has already
got there and is waiting for Ell 70
come. He doesn't want to be president
again. His declaration not TO seek
what he calledia a third term was honest !;
If Is nossible circumstances might leau
to q cali that he could not deny 70
come hack as president, but he is not
seeking ANYTHING. He is patrlol,
statesman and almost a king, a good
one. in the hearts of the American peo-
r1a. He is one lex" for whom no pro-
vision need be made. JOhN DoH'

IN ILLINOIS

WI HILE the gain for the progress
wv sive forces in the Illinois pri-
maries, numbering three con-
gressional nominations, was in q sense
a disappointment, that much seems to
be a cause for thankfulness. For an
explanation look at the fact that three
Of the indicted ribe-takers of the last
legislature triumphed at the polls.
Politics in a great city like Chicago
does not yield readily to cleansing.
'The game" is controlled there yet by
the corporations in alliance with the
saloons, dives and brothels, and 1t is
going to require q long fight, probably,
to wrench it out of their grasp.
denomination of Lee O'Neil Browne,
who on the confession of three men
paid money for votes, means that IL
linois is still corrupt and almost con-
tented. Follow the trail far enough
and you would probably find the beef
trust millions back of Browne, as they
were for years back of Lorimer as its
special spokesman on the floor of the
house in Washington, and as the Pull
man Palace Car company was back
of Browne in his defense against the
bribery charge.
But one great victory was Won In
Chicago in the defeat of Henry S.
Boutell, one of the most arrogant and
offensive members of congress, a man
of great ability and especially danger
Gus for the fact, who served the forces
of special privilege with his whole
soul in Washington and gloried in 1t.
One pioneer insurgent, Gov. George L.
Lilley of Connecticut, who as a men,
ber of the house exposed submarine
boat corruption, is in his grave today
as a result of broken health inflicted
by the Boutell committee appointed by
Cannon to suppress tie facts, defame
Lilley and whitewash the naval com
mittee of the house.
The defeat of this man largely COM
pensates for other respects in which
Illinois on Thursday played the dog

EXIT HUMPHREY

TT IS to be hoped that it is true
Congressman W. E. Humphrey of
L Washington was defeated at the
recent primaries there, as was the
case with his fellow standpatter, w.
w. McCredie. Humphrey was the
agent of special privilege in a partic-
ularly odiou1 form. He was the father
of the Humphrey ship subsidy bill.
Mr.. Taft had indorsed it's main fea-
lures and predicted its success at the
next session OF congress, but the COM
plexion of that body is likely to be so
different than at one time expected
that the bill will have small hope of
consideration.
Nevertheless it was we'll that Wash
ington took the matter in hand at it's
source. American shipping needs slim
ulation very much, but not in the way
the ship subsidy champion proposed.
There is no essential difference be-
tween the protective tariff and marine
subsidies. Both are based on the plan
of taking money out of the public
pocket by taxation to give to favored
few Ship subsidies are protection"
on the seas They are as vicious in
principle and practice as the Payne
Aldrich law.
lneTG Is no IuOI6 IGdBOH why lilC
government should pay money to
shipping corporation for running its
vessels than that it should pay rail-
road company for running it's trains.
We have seen what the tariff has done
in the manufacturing world. We will
be fools if with the example of the
tariff plunder before us we ever let
the idea of ship subsidy gain a foot
hold in our political or economic life.
The truth is that the high tariff is
one of the causes for the lamentable
decline in our merchant marine. We
shut ourselves up within tariff wall,
unmindful of the fact that all the ships
in the world will not build up our for
eign commerce under such a system.
The plan of Lewis Nixon, the great
shipbuider, to restore the conditions
under which American ships can COM
pete with foreign subsidized vessels is
10 levy discriminating taxes on for
eign bottoms entering our ports in
favor of our own carriers. This plan,
If is quite certain, would divert great
mass of freight brought in European
ships to ours to escape the tax and
cause capital to rush to transporta-
tion business thus assured of our COM
merce.
But in any event we want no ex-
tension of the taxation system where
by trusts and monopolies are built up,
and that is what ship subsidies would
be. The Humphrey kind of statesmen
can well be spared.

AWARDING THE CREDIT

Editor Herald: Governor Fernaid
OF Maine is wondering what struck
him. He says, at cannot understand
what has caused such remarkable
change" To the mind of a commoner,
one of the "mob," as the elegant Mr..
Barnes of New York characterizes all
who listen to the utterances of Theo-
dore Roosevelt, the answer is exceed
ingly plain.
Taft and Nagle in Missouri, AL
bridge and Sunny Jim" in New York,
Crane and Lodge lin Massachusetts,,
Cannon in Kansas, Hitchcock in Ari-
zona, and last, but not least, our own
Duncan McKinlay in Maine, are en-
titled to their full share of the glory
for the wonderful revolution which Is
sweeping over the country.
Ohio, under the wise and patriotic"
guidance of Brewer, Cox and Son-in-
Law Nick, may be depended upon for
another Democratic victory; and
through the pure and unselhsh"
leadership of Barnes and his gang the
old Empire states is almost sure to
follow the lead of Kansas, California,
Washington, ETC., etc., etc.

Fourth of July Aftermath

1862 died. The results are all the more
startling when we consider the fact
that during these eight years 122 per-
sons have lost their sight, 551 have lost
the sight of one eye, 432 have lost arms,
legs or hands and 1541 have lost fingers
In the face of this awful price we have
been paying for our Fourth of July
celebration we may we'll pause to ask
ourselves the question, docs 1t pay?'
Great progress is being made toward
eliminating the danger from our an
nual celebrations. During recent years
the people seem to have become thor
oughly aroused on the subject. Ord
inances have been passed in many cities
and others will be passed before .anoth-
er Fourth of July celebration Is due.
The state of Massachusetts, had only
one-seventh as many injuries this year
as last; Missouri, New Jersey and New
York reduced their injuries one-third;
Illinois and Ohio to one-half, while
Pennsylvania had two-thirds as many
this year as last It will thus be seen
that there is still room for improve
ment. The people of this country are
far too intelligent not to abolish the
barbarous celebration methods now in

The exhibition f railways and land
transport, now In progress at Buenos
Ayres, in celebration of the hundredth
anniversary OF the declaration OF the
independence of Argentina, is Illus
trated in large pamphlet issued by
the executive commission. The history
of the event celebrated is given briefly,
and there are added data to show the
great results In industry, wealth ana
culture that have been achieved IN
hundred years. These data and the
pictures of public buildings, railway
stations, theaters, hippodromes, etc,
presented in the pamphlet cannot but
amaze the average North American,
who has little or no idea of the great
results achieved in Argentina. Buenos
Ayres. in fact, compares in the num-
ber. extent and magnifcence OF lts
streets and buildings with the hnest
capitals of Europe. In the elegance,
splendor and artistic conception or It's
well-paved avenues, plazas, parks, etc,
1t surpasses most American cities OF
the same or larger size. In architec-
tural style and beauty the buildings
that flank the streets, avenues and
boulevards are hardly edualed by those
of any American city. Buenos Ayres
has been called the Paris of South
America, and evidently deserves the
