One Consolation Left

| am old and gray and spawned
and look like twenty cents, but |
have one consolation now that life
is in its fall; can sit upon boul-
der with my back against the
fence, and forget my tribulations
when | see a game of ball. Oh, |
love to see old fellows in the sere
and yellow leaf, sitting happy, on
the bleachers, yelling fifty seven
ways! For the time they have for.
gotten all about old ages grief, as
they shrek appreciation of the
home teams foxy plays. | am old
and stiff and sweenied, and my
ringbones bother much, and the
undertaken eyes me in proprietary
style, but I'd go to see the ball
games if | had to use crutch, and
I'll yell like ten hyenas as I wave
my ancient tile. You NAV say Pm
full of Goldfish, that my block is
out of plumb, when ! make the
sad confession that an old man me
annoys, if he moons around his
dooryard, looking woebegone and
glum, when he might be at the
ball game, raising thunder with
the boys. If you are so beastly
ancient that you do not feel a
thrill when the home teams win
ming laurels and a gorgeous lot of
fame, you should rent hearse to
haul you to the boneyard on the
hill; for it's mighty foolish living
when you're weary of the game.

Woodrow Wilson

Extracts from the speech of
Woodrow Wilson at San Francis
co May 18th, seem to have the
right ring for a presidential can
didate:
The real difficulty in the man
agement of our corporations in
recent years has been the wrong
point of view of those who were
in control of them. They did not
recognize that they were public
trustees. They acted as if they
were conducting their own private
business. Let them change their
point of view, and their is no pro
blem to solve. There is no legisla-
tion necessary if they will bat re-
gard themselves rs trustees of the
common interest, bound by con-
siderations not private, but public
in the conduct of their business. l
think that the spirit of the age is
slowly changing with regard to all
these important matters. The time
of contest and vituperation and
mutual abuse and misunderstand-
ing is passing away. 1t is begin
ming to be recognized that those
who are leading the reform move
ment of the age are leading it in
all sincerity and genuine public
spirit. Men of business are waking
to look about them upon the real
facts and to make statesmen of
themselves; and public men are
going half way to meet them in
this new temper and purpose of
theirs. We shall yet see a day of
happy accommodation and of es-
tablished justice.

Cottontops Walloped

Last Sunday the Philip base ball
squad journeyed to Cottonwood,
and in the afternoon met the local
aggregation of that city on the di-
amond in desperate struggle for
supremacy, the final score of four
to five resulting in victory for
Philip. The game was fast one
from start to finish, and viewed
from the bleachers, looked like
anybody's game up to the home
stretch. Frank Arnes, who was
in the box for the visitors, was al
most invincible at all times. In
the fourth inning, a little loose
playing allowed four of the Cot
tons to gallop across the plate,
while a string of goose eggs mar
ked the progessof the visitors, but in
the next inning a couple of hits and
a little Juggling of the sphere net
ted the Philippines three runs, and
two more in the sixth gave them
the lead. The sensation of the
game was the clever work of Arens
in the last half of the ninth inning.
With the bases all occupied and no
one out, he struck out the first two
up, and the next man hit short
fly to first, which retired the side
and gave the game to Philip. In
the latter part of the game hot
grounder made bad bound and
struck Arens under the eye, in
tlicting severe bruise, but Frank
stuck it out and pitched a more
determined game than ever. Joe
Koenig, who was working behind
the bat for the visitors, did excel
lent work, not ha>ing a pass ball
and mailing every man who at
tempted to steal second. In fact,
the whole Philip aggregation
worked together like a piece
of machinery. Arrangements will
be made to have Cottonwood play
here in the near future.

ASHCREEK EDITOR INJURED
E. n. Kerner Thrown From Bug.
gy and Sustained a Compound
Fracture of Leg

While driving from Ashcreek to
Cottonwood, E. H. Kerner, editor
and manager of the Ashcreek
Pilot, was thrown from the buggy
in which he was riding and severe
ly injured. The accident occurred
about four o'clock on Friday after
noon near Grindstone and the in
jured man was not found until
about nine o'clock in the evening.
He had crawled some distance from
the scene of the accident and shout
ed in vain for assistance but no
help was at hand. The horse which
he was driving wandered to a
neighbOring house and stopped,
and it was thought that an acci-
dent had happened to Mr.. Kerner,
and searching party was at once
organized, which resulted in the
finding of the man almost uncon-
scious and pitifully weak from the
loss of blood. He was taken to the
nearest neighbor where willing
hands done all that was possible
until the arrival of a physician.
An auto was dispatched to Philip
and DR.. Heinemann was called and
found that the bone had been
broken about eight inches below
the hip and pro.ruded through the
flesh and muscles of the leg. The
patient was taken to Cottonwood
and thence to Lead, where he was
placed in the Homestake Hospital
and the bone set by Drs. Heine-
mann and Freeman. He is getting
along as we'll as could be expected
but will be laid up for some time.
Mr.. kerner was unable to tell Just
how the accident happened and re-
members nothing of the circum-
stances except on his return to
he felt the rain fall
ing on his face.

Cue elemenLS OF DOCn parCloS, nav
ing positive views regarding the
merits of the provisions in the
Arizona constitution, in reference
to the recall of judges-a princi-
pie which has been bitterly assail-
ed time and again, and even dur
ing the past week by President
Taft. The controversy will extend
to the additional principles in the
Arizona document providing for
the initiative and referendum. Ap-
pearances are that these questions
will precipitate a sort of free-for-
all in the senate, where the state
hood bills are scheduled to arrive
within few days. Harmony is a
word that does not exist in the
United States senate, as that body
is constituted at the present time,
and the result is that it is unsafe
to predict the fate of any legisla-
tion that the country is anxiously
watching.
The presidential boom of speak
or Champ Clark travelled so fast
during the first lap of the race
which started sixty days ago, that
there are indications of fatigue.a
Mr.. Clark is personally one of the
most popular men in the capital,
but democratic leaders who are
not under the congressional spell,
evidently foresaw danger in the
Clark candidacy. 1t is pointed out
that the Missourian is not proper
ly located, geographically, to make
good presidential timber, and there
seems to be concentrated effort
to foster the presidential enter
prise of Governor Woodrow Will
son, who is recognized as a popu-
lar leader with the advantage of
residence in the east and parent
age from the south. These ele-
ments of strength are just now re-
sponsible for the popular upris-
ing" that is demanding Governor
Wilson's nomination in 1912.
There is no Disgusting the fact |
that the proposed attempt to re-
wise the present tariff on wool, or
to place wool on the free list, is
bringing forth protest that ex-
tends from Ohio to the Pacific
ocean. Evidently the intent is to |
reach the manufacturers of wooden
goods, but in revising the tariff to
bring this about, the greater num-
ber of people who find reason for
complaint, are among the wool
growers of the country; and as
some of the western states recog-
nize this industry as one of their
greatest assets, the extent of the
population of the country that is
affected is very large. Wool grow
ers insist that free wool would
destroy the industry, which they
claim is in no position to compete
with foreign countries.

The Civic Celebration

Although the Fourth of July
is included in the Minneapolis Civic
Celebration, July 2 to 8, the event
is more comprehensive and note
worthy than the term implies.
Several of the features are in
themselves of sufficient scope to be
undertakings which singly would
be considered big affairs. There is
to be an industrial parade which
will reflect the commercial and
business enterprise of the north
west; a historic pageant, under
taken on a. more elaborate scale
than ever before in any city in the
country; water fete, in which it
is proposed to carefully reproduce
in nearly full size such ancient
craft rs the ship of Columbus. the
Mayfower, Cleopatra's barge, a
Greek galley, Roman trireme, etc.
The entire national guard of the
state is to be mobilized for two
days and is to appear in man,
moth military parade on the fourth
of July.
There are incidental features
such as parade of uniformed fra
ternal marching bodies, an auto
mobile floral parade, a childrens'
float parade and demonstration in
which twenty five thousand school
children appear. There are to be

works, and aquatic as we'll as land
sports, music by twenty Dands in
Guiding concerts by the famous
Innes Orchestra Band of New
York, prize military drills, band
tournament and lots of amusements
including a circus and managerie.
Minneapolis is to decorate itself
with flowers for the occasion. Mic
ollet avenue is to be court of
honor twelve blocks long with
hanging flower gardens in every
window, stately pillars surmount-
ed by flaming globes to form
colonnade the entire distance. The
tidy little sum of 500, ,00Ois being
spent in preparations and all fea-
lures are to be free to the people.
