From the Cuthbert Leader.
We favor the suggestion of The

10 be sure, there is the prohibition
or local option issue more or less
mixed up in the present campaign;
but the Chronicle is not disposed to
accept either as having a real place
in the contest On the contrary, we
are very much of the opinion that
the only way to get a true and fair
expression of public opinion on the
prohibition question is to submit if
to the people without the help or
handicap of some man seeking office
with either side of this great moral
question as his platform.

This pleasant controversy adds interest
TO the Langford-Smith bout. whether
Johnson appears or not, for Smith, who
has shown wonderful improvement actu-
ally believes that he has a chance to
win. The members of the club have seen
Smith in several battles. More than a
year ago. when a mere Sreenhorn, the
Westchester farmer had nerve enough to
go up against the late Stanley ketchel
He also had sufficient courage to rush in
with a terrific attack, which. during the
first four rounds had ketchel in a state
OF worriment. But lack of experience
and overanxiety proved Smiths downfall.
for he suddenly left himself open for

down and out. Smith did not lose heart,
though. and kept on struggling for
front place III the light heavyweight di-
vision. He improved rapidly and two
weeks ago he handed a severe defeat to
Morris Harris of Philadelphia who was
stopped by Langford two years ago in
seven rounds. Smith therefore believes
that ne Will make II extremely interesting
for Langford. especially in View of the
fact that the Tar Baby probably is over
confident.
Langford cannot afford to stall in this
affair. and by defeating Smith in decisive
fashion he will strengthen his position In

ford is regarded as the best heavyweight
in the ring with the possible exception Of
Johnson. and his appearance is awaited
with unusual interest.

INVESTIGATING PROTESTS.

PTTTSBURG, June 1.-President Lynch
of the National League was here yester-
day to investigate the protested game of
Pittsburg and Chicago. Pittsburg pro-
tested the game here with Cincinnati last
Saturday and Chicago protested the game
with Pittsburg Tuesday morning, In both
instances decisions of Umpire Doyle on
bases being questioned.
President Lynch would make no state

Umpires Doyle and KLEIN and Managers

Of Evans game that must ever seem odd
to fasteners, that in his preference for
putting with a midiron, and there were
those who declared that Evans lost to w.

abandon his favorite iron. which failed to
work satisfactorily on the keen greens
at Clyde Park.
Much disappointment was expressed

regard to the eligibility OF the st. Mar
tins players seems to be rather out OF
place. The names Of the players in ques-
ton, who, 1t was claimed, were played
without being registered, were placed In
the hands of the president seven days
constitution of the league they were In
good standing and eligible to participate
in games in that circuit.
The Walford club is apt to be minus
some OF Its stars tomorrow, when 1t lines
up against the Willard team in the Com
mercial League. Two or three of the men
on the Technical High team are members
of the Sporting Goods Mems club. and If
they are not able to play it is more than
probable that the team will be consider
ably weakened. The Walford club will
not be lacking in good twirling material,
though, as 1t has Herrell to depend on,
and that gent has done some mighty
good work this season.
1t Is more than probable that the West
ern batting order will receive a shake-up
before the game tomorrow. The absence
of Howard makes change necessary, in
order that it may be as well balanced as
before. Whether or not 1t will be showed
order or whether they will be switched
around Is not yet decided.
A great deal depends on the sort of
game Catcher Morris of Tech puts up
tomorrow whether he will be given the
Job as All-High catcher: A man can't be
given job on an All-High team for the
work he has done outside the series. and
as matters stand now both Parker and
King of Eastern and Central. respectively,
have just as good a call on the position
as has Morris.
