SIX PER CENT FARE
 WANTED REDUCED

Atlanta, July GA resolution asking President Taft, his cabinet and the United States department of agriculture to take steps to reduce the per cent 'tare' oll cotton baled for the market was intro- duced in the Georgia house of represen- tatives today by Representatives Kim brough and Johnson.

It is pointed out that since the per cent rule was adopted the weight of American cotton bales has increased and the weight of canvas. etc, has decreased. As result, planters de- clare, the south loses several million dol- lars each year.

ana SMdlilnS Iidtti, AiV 9At oAA1 achieved a notable victory over the Billikens, and by so doing saved honor in the series The score was to T. i. Although the Barons were outswatted they outjuggled the vsittors--but in spite of these facts the locals had the happy knack of pasting out their bin- gles when embryonic scores hung heavy. They made their nine hits count for as many runs, while on IA swats and four errors, three of which were hung up in succession, the visitors could get but seven runs
 Savidge was knocked out before man was retired in the first. lie was succeeded by Bills, who lasted through the fifth inning Lelivelt then finished the game for the visitors, and he was touched up in critical moments for couple of runs-these by means Of which the Barons won the game. Wag- ner started for Birmingham and was hit hard and often. However, errors by Marcan and McGilvray paved the way for the four runs scored by the Bilil- kens in the fifth inning. Prough began firing in the beginning of the sixth, and though he yielded hit an inning, he was never in trouble
 Each team made many changes. When Bills succeeded Savidge, Dobbs switched to centerheld and sent Flint to right When Lelivelt succeeded Bills Bills returned to cenetr field and Dobbs returned to right, Flint taking his ac- cueton1ad on the bench.
 Toward the conclusion of the games Molesworth sprained a tenden in his right leg and was forced to retire from the fight. Johnston was switched to center and Yantz removed from his po- sition behind the bat to right field. Elliott caugth the remainder of the game.
 Three hits and couple of scaerihces gave Montgomery two runs in the open ing round. The Barons came back Wi.n four. these accruing as result of walk, three hits. one a triple, an error, and sacrifice fly. On doubles by Mcbride and Wagner and a triple by Ellam, 1oi- lowed by an error of McElveen, the Barons ran three more tallies across In the fourth Montgomery, by scoring four runs, tied the tally in the fifth. To pe- gin with Marcan made a couple of CT TOTS in succession, which were followed bv an error of McGilvray. Whereupon McElveen. Graham and Bills singled in succession.
 The play after the sixth took on the pro portions of baseball game. and the oods were even as to which club would win.

In the eighth Elliott opened with triple over the nrse bag. and was scored on sacrifice ny oi Yantz.

THE LAW.

1t has been accepted from the be-
ginning that the Standard Oil and
the tobacco trust would not be af-
fected by the court decision order
ing them to dissolve. Such concerns
are apparently above the law. When
one way of organizing does not suit
they quietly adopt another. 1t is
all the same to them. Their great
staff of expert corporation lawyers
will draw their enormous salaries
anyway and they may as well be
kept busy.
Every one of these trust mag
mates knows when he is violating the
law, He does 1t deliberately and
Intentionally. The only cure, there
fore seems to be to lock a few of
them up for a term and see how they
like prison fare. Where the law is
violated unknowingly, perhaps, the
a may be different, but when the
statutes are repeatedly and consist
emily ignored, 1T is time to show the
men who do such a thing that this
country Is governed by law and no
one can be above it.
