From Fort Dodge
Without Trouble

Chances for Goals-Final Score
is as to Ia.

The Omaha Young Mems Christian asso-
citation basket ball five easily defeated the
quintet OF Company G. Fort Dodge, Ia,
last night, IS to "a. After the first few
minutes OF play, the Young Mems Chris
ton association team simply had the game
all its own way.
The Iowans found the Omaha lads much
too fast for them and the ball was in the
possession of the locals the majority of
the time. The visitors tried hard, but were
unable, as rule, to get the ball quite
near enough to the basket to make a good
throw. The Omaha guards we're easily
able to protect their territory, while the
Fort Dodge men were not able to stop the
swift shoots OF Wesin and Wilson of
Omaha.
The plays last night we're swift and
rarely broken up by the visitors. There
was little fumbing. due partly to the fact
that the passes were short. A live spirit
was evidenced on each side and in spite
of numerous fouls there was no bad feel
Ing between the players. Smith, the Fort
Dodge center, topped Wilson by a head
and kept Wilson on the jump on the tossup.

ACTION IN CONTEMPT OF COURT
President Must Explain 60 Judge,
Because waterloo Has Secured
Injunction GivinE RiEht
a. vote in Case.

CHICAGO. Jan. q. - Attorney ouin
o Brien. representing the Waterloo, Ia
base ball club OF the Three Eye league,
appeared before Judge Gridley in the SUI
perior court today to press the charge OF
contempt against President Tearney and
Attorney LitzinRe- Of the league and
Dick" Kinsella, owner Of the Springfield.
ILL.,. club. for their part in busting the
Waterloo club from the league at a trump
meeting" last night.
Judge Gridley postponed the hearing until
later in the day. According to Mr.. O'Brien
the defendants violated in several particu-
lars the Injunction secured by Waterloo
President Tearney Is alleged TO have shown
contempt when he ruled. as chairman, that
the Klnsella motion to expeI Waterloo
could not be made the subject Of a sub
stitute motion 10 expel Danvile, and in
casting deciding vote on tie votes TO sus-
tain his own rulings on appeals from the
chair. His rulings are declared in effect
to amount to deprifng Waterloo OF It's
right to vote.
Hearing Postponed.
When the matter came up this afternoon
Judge Gridley postponed the hearing until
tomorrow. TO allow the defense to prepare
an answer.
The Injunction was obtained on January
4, and caused a postponement OF a meeting
called for that date until today. In a
hearing on the injunction. the court ruled
that Waterloo should be present and have
vote at any meeting at which action
might be taken. Al Tearney was chair
man OF the meeting. Attorneys occupied
most OF the time
When the meeting was called 20 order,
Richard Kinsella, owner Of the Springfield
club, moved that the Waterloo clubs fran
chise be not renewed The opposition moved
a substitute that Danville be dropped.
The original motion, a motion to table and
appeals from the chair with variations
occupied the time until an adjournment was
taken for luncheon. On every question
Davenport, Dubuque, Rock Island and Wa
terloo voted in favor Of Waterloo. Spring

Tearney and those desiring to GUST Water.
loo met alone. Supporters of Waterloo re-
fused to attend the meeting.
Some OF the Waterloo adherents SAID
they did not know there was to be a meet
ing, where 1t was to be held.
Kinsella's motion to Dust Waterloo wal
adopted, a schedule for next season wal
accepted and the meeting adjourned sub
ject to call.
Waterloo's action in declining 10 attend
the evening meeting is construed TO NEAR
that representatives of that club will e
into the courts.
While the ostensible reason for the de
sire to eliminate Waterloo from the League
Is based on the excess fare that must b.
paid by other clubs to reach that city, tn
underlying motives are declared by tn
Waterloo contingent TO be the desire o
kinsela to control the league and the fac
that Quincy a few months ago was prom
Used a place in the league.

A MISTAKE OF THE COURTS?

Congressman Kendall came before
the parole board in the interest of a
convict, whom Mr. Kendall prosecuted
successfully for murder ten years ago.
when he was county attorney and the
convict was a boy of II. When the
boy was convicted he could not speak
a word of the English language. Mr..
Kendall informed the board that the
boy could not assist his own defense
in any way, asserted that he Is con-
WINGED the youth did not have fair
trial and that all the facts were not
brought out. Since sentence he as
serted, it has been found that he is
of unsound mind and in his native
country was considered an irrespons-
ible imbecile. The former prosecutor
now asks the parole board to remedy
the wrong perpetrated by the court ten
years ago.
Justice seems to require long per-
Tod of incubation. Ten years is a long
time II the facts are as Mr.. Kendall
now states them, it would appear that
somewhat of the boys mental condi-
ton should Lave cropped out at the
trial-if he actually had trial and
that it should not require ten years to
find out that a crazy man had been
Improperly convicted and sentenced to
state prison as person of sound mind
If 1t Is true then the helpless imbeclle
who has spent 2ten years in prison
should find belated justice. There
can be no remedy. The ten years be-
tween II and 81 are not to be recalled.
There is something about the case
as 1t is pleaded to the parole board
which suggests that it should not be
possible for any man to spend ten
years in prison unjustly because he
doesn't speak English or have brains
enough to assist his own defense. II
Kendall is right today the court was
inexcusably careless ten years ago.

THE HOME AND THE ZEN HOUSE.

Up in a northwest Iowa community
the people are forming chicken
and hog thief societies. The middle
men formed an association the other
day. Organization is the watchwor6
Of the time. Those with interests to
defend are inclined to WORK together
in their defense. Except the parents
There is no organization of parents
seeking to defend against a greater
danger than horse thieves. Short OBJ
servation any evening will convince Of
that. The number of young girls on
the street utterly unattended makes it
plain that nobody has active fears Of
What may happen TO them.
Why is it that a man will lock his
barn and his hen house and take
chances on his children? Why does a
woman hide her watch and jewelry
away from thieves and let her IA
year-old girl run loose of nights? Isn't
the home as sacred as the hen house?
