Barons Encountered Rain And Wind
 And No Game Occurred Tn Tuscaloosa
WITH THE SCRIBES

As announced in the Atlanta Journal, Manager James McAleer, of the Sena- tors, has called off the exhibition games with Otto Jordan's club this week. This action was hardly a surprise, for both Jordan and McAlecr had intimated that they would prefer not to play the con tests that had been previously arranged. It Is hardly a compliment to the Crack CTS, however that the American league club could not be benefited by playing games against them. MoAleer feels that his club can produce team that will play better ball against his regulars than the Atltanta club, and at the same time he
 is getting a chance to see all his own men under fire It's rather tough on Jordans club, but it is certainly the wisest move McAleer could make.-Atlanta Journal.
 With only a few more days for the Washington American league club to re- ally getting anxious to know what the manager of the Senators intends to do by way of helping out Otto Jordans club. There is an understandings yer bal contract so to speak--between Jordan and McAleer that the Atlanta mogul is to have first call on the Washington east offs Of course, there will be a number of these. Jordan needs some good players pretty badly. He wants men for the out field and for his pitching staff especially. He has his eye on the men he> wants. Even if McAleer is disposed to let Jor- dan have these men, there seems to be some doubt as to whether or not the Atlanta Baseball association will pay fair price for them. What the actual status of arrangements between Jordan and MoAleer is now no one knows. We must wait and watch.-Atlanta Journal.
 It is not the custom of the editor Of these columns to give way to exorbitant boosting. It's not fair to the fans to make them think they have a pennant winner, and then, mayhap, have the team finish up nowhere. However, we cannot refrain rom reprinting the following from Jack Ryder, in the Cincinnati Enquirer:
 .The New York players say that the Chattanooga team is the strongest outfit that they have played in the south this year, and they think that Billy Smith Is going to make a great bid for the Southern league flag for the Lookout City,"
 The Yankees were excessively sore at being made to play in Chattanooga on a cold day, and their trubute, hence, must be real.-Chattanooga Times

 He leaves Scotland April for New Haven.
 Perhaps his best shot is the approach with either mashie or iron. He pitches the ball well up to the hole, but. unlike
 most good pitchers he plays with very
 slack wrists and never tries to put cut
 on. His swing is very free and loose and he drives a very long ball.

GOOD
ROADS
Will Be Discussed in
the Legislature
the Legislature

Before the November election, when
the planks on which the gubernatoriai
and legislative candidates were to be
run, were being made, good roads was
promised by all factions. The Repub'
leans and Independent Democrats
promised to consider putting the state
convicts on the highways, and OF
building a great highway through the
state. 1t is now expected that these
promises will be made good. Candi'
dates who were successful should be
reminded of their promises.
Alabama will reap net profit OF .
half million dollars from her state con-
victs this year. Tennessee made less
than one-ffth this amount last year,
and according to published press re-
ports there was net loss OF $l,3O0
according to the statement OF the
prison commissioners up to September
] of this year.
Furtherrnor prison warden and
physician state that Tennessee should
have hospitals for tubercular patients
instead of having other prisoners ex'
posed to infection from these con-
sumptiye prisoners
In Virginia and Georgia, especially,
where state convicts are worked on
the roads. the demand for them has
exceeded the supply.
In cases where county work is done
by contractors, they say that they pre-
fer conyicts to any other kind OF labor.
Put the State Convicts on the Road.
No Southern state needs good roads
worse than Tennessee. Probably no
Southern state is getting less out OF
it's convicts under present out-of-date
system than Tennessee. No greater
benefit to all the people, and to the
prisoners themselves, can be secured
than by healthful outdoor road build
ing work.
The sentiment Is now so strong that
Tennessee prisoners should be placed
on the roads that no representative
can afford to ignore this sentiment.
