FIFTH COMPANY DEFEATED
TENTH AT INDOOR BABEBALL
First Time Visitors Had Been Beaten
in Two Ysars-Score 20 to in
Seven Innings.

After having beaten everything in
New London and vicinity in the past
two years. the indoor baseball team of
the Tenth company, c. A c., came here
on Tuesday evening for a game with
the Fifth company team of this city.
Neither team had been defeated, SO
something fine in the line of inside
baseball was looked for. The crowd
in attendance received it in the shape
of a trimming administered to the New
Gondoners to the tune of % to 4. The
overwhelming victory caused the crowd
to go wild with enthusiasm. especially
in the fourth inning when the local
team scored 13 runs.
The visitors found the slippery floor
a handicap, but the locals got about on
il like flies on a ceiling. They batted
like fiends and made the contest a
lively one from the viewpoint of the
audience. The anticipation of more
such games and the early formation
of a league which would make such
games possible was the cause fob
many inquiries concerning the starting
of league games. 1t is probable that
a return game will be played in New
London at date to be determined,
and thereafter it will be possible TO
determine whether league will be
started.
The teams played as follows: Fifth
Co, Corp Faulkner c, Lieut. Nichols
p, Mus. CauI<ins 1b, Priv. Mulholland
b. Mech. Nichols SD, Mus. Waldron Is.
Corp waidron RS. Mus. Kumpf If,
Corp Bradley IF. Tenth Co, Rock
holz c, Stanton p, E. Wilson Ii. NJ.
Wilson 2b. J. ODonneH SO, Watso Is,
Philopena RS, Martin If, ODonne1 IF.
Lieut.. Burdick umpired.
The score by innings:
Fifth Co. .6 Is
Tenth Co. .....0 %
Only seven innings were played as
the visitors were obliged to leave to
catch a car for New London, the game
not starting until after the regular drill
of the company.
In the drill there was guard duty
and caliSthenics. One recruit was re-
ceived The probability of league
for indoor baseball is pleasing TO the
members and their friends and should
one be formed the games will be play
ed on nights other than drill nights
and be started early

No Setback For Wilson.

From The Springfield Republican, Nov. 9.
To declare that the loss to the DEM
ocrats, of the lower branch of the New
Jersey Legislature was a heavy blow
to Governor Wilson's Presidential CAN
didacy can De believed only by those
who refuse TO look beneath the surface.
The New Jersey House was lost be-
cause of Essex county, which is the
home of James Smith, Jr., the foe OF
Governor Wilson's political aspirations:
and Essex county became impossible,
from the Wilson point of view, the
moment Smith succeeded i'll nominating
;nti-Wilson Democrats. The Cover
nor did not contest the county. Out
side OF it his followers made gains, and
the Senate is more nearly Democratic
than before. Tie fairest Inference is
that the Democratic party ought to be
proud of Governor Wilson because OF
the enemies he has made.

GOVERNOR ISSUES PROCLAMATION
Governor Wilson has designated
Thursday, November 30, as Thanks
giving Day. In his proclamation the
Governor says:
"Another year has passed; we have
enjoyed peace ut home and abroad; our
fields have yielded their generous in
crease in response no our labors; our
business enterprises have gone forward,
if without unusual increase, at least
without crisis and without untoWard
check OF hindrance, and our state has
won credit among her n%eigllbors for
thoughtful and we'll considered reform.
For these things and all the manifold
blessings of life; for all things that
make for righteousness and purity and
increasing confidence, we W devout
and heartfelt thanks to Almighty God,
to whose providence We owe all that
sustains and brightens our life, whether
as individuals, as communities, or as a
nation.

How to Get Better Crops

If the Grain Exchanges Of this coun.
try will go after better and bigger
crops In a systematic they may
he able to accomplish something. 1t
has already-been shown that academic
talk about better fertilizers, deeper
blowing, rotation of crops and the like
affect only a few intelligent farmers.
The census returns show all too plainly
that we are not increasing u output
as we should.
k South Carolina of all places in the
w0rld-has started a movement which
has done a lot of good. Here a few in.
dividuals first, anu then some societies,
tried the improvement OF crops by offer
ing prizes to boys who WOnld produce
the most corn on an acre. AS the aver
age for the whole country is only
twenty-five bushels, an amazing result
was achieved when these boys raised
the average to more than fifty, some of
them going eve to Two hundred bush
els an acre. OF course, special pains
were taken with these little plots, but
no more than the ordinary farmer can
give to his farm. 1t does not require
SO much more labor as better objected
labor, while the added cost for f~ertiliZ-
erS is SO small that it could easily be
paid for out Of a portion OF the profits.
North Carolina has taken up this
fever and boys are getting ready
for a great contest next summer. OF
course, the value of all this is in its
effect on the surrounding farmers. Ii
they cannot understand from these ex-
perlments that scientific farming pays
they will never change then methods.
II the Grain Exchanges of the couas.y
will take enough interest in the matter
the average tate of crops cali be in
creased fifty per cent. There is no
doubt OF it any more than there is that
unless something is done in this dIrec
ton we are going on short rations be-
fore the end OF this generation.-In-

SOCIAL UNREST

The social unrest now so manifest
in Great Britain and continental
Europe and to a lesser extent in this
country will not down until a radical
readjnstment takes place of the whole
social and economic structure. At
least that is the conviction of intelli-
gent men who have studied the situa-
tion at close range. The masses have
an idea more equitable relation
should exist between employers and
men. that wealth should be more
equally distributed, and that wher-
ever a remnant of the old fuedal sys
tenn still exists it should be DESTROYED
A long step forward in this direc
tion has been taken in England in
the last two or three years, and pro-
gress along the same lines is also be-
ing made in Germany and other coun-
tries. Apparently the changes of
the next few years will be as momen-
tous as those wrought by the French
Revolution of 1880, but happily with
out the commissions and bloodshed
that accompanied that event. And
certainly the results will be more
tangible and farreaching than those
of the revolutionary period of 1889.

OFF ON GOVERNORS SPECIAL

Governor Vessey went to st. Paul
on Sunday, where he will meet Gov.
Burke, of North Dakota. and Gov.
Eberhart, of Minnesota. in confer
ence over taking part in the "gov-
ernors' special" which it is expected
to send on tour of the eastern cities
some time in December. This state
has been asked to join, as has North
Dakota and Minnesota, and the con-
ference will probably decide whether
the states will be represented. 1t
will take an expense of several thou
sand dollars to place South Dakota
on the list with an exhibit on the
train, and while there is no stat fund
available for that purpose, different
commercial clubs and real estate men
over the state are taking an interest
in the plan and taking the necessary
steps toward financing. 1t is possible
that several prominent business men
of the state who are interested in the
move will join the governor at st,
Paul.

SHIPS HORSES TO KENTUCKY

Ell. A. Lumley left Saturday evening
for Lexington, KY, with shipment
of light harness horses from the ranch
of which he is manager, just east Of
this city. The raising of this class of
horses has been the main feature of the
ranch for a number of years, but all OF
that class of horses is to be cleared up,
by shipment to Kentucky, the car
Saturday being the first of over hun
dred head which will go to the Blue
Grass state. The reason for the change
is that the ranch will be put under ir-
rigation, and farmed instead of being
used for horse range. The company
which owns the tract is composed
principally of Pittsburg men, who are
supplying the capital for the irrigation
work, and their operations will be on a
large scale, beginning next year.

YOU CAN'T LOSE

Sioux Falls Press: There may not
be another land opening for some
years and the Press would advise
homeseekers who wish to insure their
future prosperity by settling down ON
South Dakota farm not to wait.
Instead let them go into the market
and purchase decided land to which
they can acquire immediate title.
There are bigger prices and more of
them in bargains in South Dakota
land than were offered in the Rose.
bud drawing. There is hardly piece
of land in South Dakota on which a
purchaser will not make big money
if he acquires it now at the price
asked by the owner. Some of this
land is held at a price equal tc that
in older states, hut it is bargain AT
rhat. You can hardly make mis-
take in buying South Dakota land.
II is a sure investment.
