Only Chance
for the Nigger

The following IS from 4 lady resid
| ing in Carson, devout member OF
the church and earnest worker III the
service:
Editor Appeal The most per5ua-
siye sermon | ever heard preached
was delivered by a colored man at :,
revival i'll Missouri few years alter
the war, and during the reconstruction
pciod | write only the substance OF
a long exhortation, and was about as
follows:
=" ,Bredern and sistern: De black
man is not gettin' his rights, and not
gettin justice, and not gcttln equal
lty on earth with de white man; and
he Is not gettin it III hell. De only
place where he can get it is i'll heb
ben, and he must get to hebben to
get it or go without. | don't tell you
why he don't get it i'll Missouri be-
case you know all about yoselves. |
will tell you how it is in hell:
In hell ebery white man holds a
niggah i'll front OBJ him befoh de
hah. In heben ebery pusson is equal
befoh de Lawd, and when yo makes
de black man equal with de white
man, it is hell on de white man. So,
20 obey ali the commandments OF
de Lawd, and go to hebben, and play
hell wild de white man, and III dat
way yo will get chen, and justify de
Lawd in all his ways"
The foregoing may or may not be
any more pursuasive than the remark
OF another Negro preacher from the
"show me- state, when he learned of
the revision of the Bible substituting
"sheol' for hell who in substance
said: IF dere is no moh hell, dere's
no moh use for me to preach, be-
cause hell is all niggahs am afraid Of

The sporadic agitation for the re
moval Of the State Capitol from Car
son City has bobbed up again. This
time Winnemucca wants it. Most
any town in the state would take It,,
if they could get it, Goldheld, for
instance, would be content to get the
State Capitol. However, the people
OF this state are very well satisfied
with the Capitol where it Is, and are
not in the least anxious TO have the
state tax rate increased merely to
build new state houses because the
people OF some town other than Car
son think they ought to have a whack
at being the State Capitol ior awhile.
The removal agitation is like the agi-
tation for the division OF Esmeralda
County-merely a proposition to in
crease the tax rate in order to cater
to the fancy OF some set OF wouldbe
pie e-eates-Goldheld News.

DR.. Won Radesky, who has made
this city his home for the past sew
eral years, is gone He sold his res
idence here some days ago and gave
out that he would remove to the
milder climate of Florida where he
thought his health would be better
1t was noticed yesterday collection
day. that he had forgotten to tell
several people that he had departed.
Those collectors were greatly sur
prised and to-day are busily engaged
accounts to the profit
and loss page IN the ledger. His
destination was given out as Florida,
but his household effects, which
went by freight, were billed to San
Diego, Cal. Il is hardly necessary to
state that the Appeals bill collector
was unable to find the doctor yester-
1t can scarcely be said that the doc
tor departed; he just quietly slid
away.

The charge made by Reno paper
that Austin is trying to secure the re-
moval of the State Capitol from Car
son to this place is absolutely false.
If there is anything in the universe
that Austin does not want it is the
location OF the Capitol. For fear
that the balance OF the state may not
appreciate the deep convictions OF the
people OF Austin upon this subject,
we will print next week series of III
tcrvews with our most progressive
merchants. in which they give fear
less and unequivocal voice i'll opposi-
ton to the palpable outrage. If there
is any scheme being hatched in the
Legislature to foist the Capitol on
Austin, it will be fought to the bitter
end.
II Joe Miller, kemm and Copper
noll cannot save their home town
from this calamity, they had better
take to the tall timber and never
show their faces in Reese River VAL
ley again Because, gentlemen, be it
understood once for all, Austin wants
to be let alone. She wants to snooze
Oh the warm Toiyabe hillside. She
wants to droop and pine in deep lone
someness. She proposes to remain
in last century. She wants no inno-
vations.
So, cut out the Capital. We do not
want it. Give it to Winnemucca or
Nina. Battle Mountain might take
it-Reveille.

CLUB FRANCHISE
TO Be FORFEITED?
Looks That Way Unless Fans
Rally Considerable for FL
nal Game of Season.
STILL BELOW MINIMUM
League Rule Requires attendance
Total of So, ,00O-Rock Island
Is Shy 919.

After the scattered few had been
counted yesterday at the ball park it
-.as found that the local club is shy
e1e admissions of the minimum at
tendance allowed by the league. With
weather conditions today adverse TO
u large crowd, it will be necessary to
have about 6O0 or more al the game
tomorrow. 1t is hardly probable that
there will be more than 800 today.
With the prospects fer gloomy day
this moIninC, and possible showers.
the club directors announced that If
il Is impossible tC play the double bill
today, that two games will be played
tomorrow This is only on condition
that two games are not played today.
Rock Island finishes here tomorrow,
and then goes to Waterloo. A few
Victories ever that team would cause
another eruption on that lower rung.
FRANCHISE IN JEOPARDY.
But discarding all things concerning
the present. there is one big reason
why every one should turn out tomor-
row The franchise of the local club
is IN jeopardy, and should there be a
Three-Eye league next season, Rock
Island would have no ball team. If
here is "ne, it will be a top-notcher,
for plans and changes are contem-
plated which will shake up every
thing. There is good nucleus for
fast team here now, and with an even
break next spring the Islanders will
have another winning aggregation.
So. Mr.. Fan, it is up to you to go to
the game tomorrow. Do not leave ii
to your neighbors to fill the void in
the attendance, but come out yourself.
And bring some one with you.

NOTES OF THE GAME

Every man on the team secured al
least one hit. and coupled with the
eight free tickets to first, made
plenty.
And after that winning run was
scored, some one yelled horseshoe.
Maybe it was, but 1t counts just the
same.
"Old Man" Davidson only made
four hits out of six chances yester-
day. and he gobbIed them up in the
field. too
SNYDER made a run back of sec
ond for ore Of Dayidson's hits and
scooping it up. shot il 10 first at
the same fine that the runner reach
ed the sack
Dubuque finishes here tomorrow.
The attendance is still shy several
hundred, so it is up to the fans TO
turn ont in force tomorrow.
Melchoir hit one to the northwest
corner of the lot, and while Bech-
told was meandering out after the
ball. Melchoir completed the circuit,
and scoring two men ahead of him.
Beatty was injured, when in the
second inning, he attempted TO go
to second on an overthrow TO first.
He was caught out. In sliding, he
turned his ankle and had to re-
tire

fight, Promoter Mulkern announced
he would stage the bout, anyway. and
demand damages in the amount OF his
gate receipts if the fight is stopped b.
the sheriff. Mulkern's attorney went
to Madison yesterday for a conference
with the attorney general. This gave
the promoters a chance to be heard
without an argument with the church
people, who want the fight stopped.
The promoters are firm in their state
ment that the bout will take plsc and
continue to sell tickets. Because OF
the annual state fair. the city is crowd
ed with visitors, some of whom have

Tri- City Athletes Are Out in
Force and the Rooters Are
Confident.
MANY STARS ARE BACK
About Half of Last Years Teams

Again This Season.

The yearly tri-City interscholastic
football grind is on in earnest. The
three high schools and st. Ambrose
college of Davenport have had their
squads out for practice two nights
now and as usual at first sight each
school is full of enthusiasm about its
chances for the tri-city title. At
Rock Island about 80 candidates for
position were out last night and
Coach Corneal put the men through
preliminary training stunts in which
most of them showed up to adyan-
tage. The presence of many of the
veterans from last years team is of
considerable aid to the coach at this
stage of the game.
BIG SQUAD IN MOLINE.
Coach Burroughs of Moline met a
squad of over 40 for practice last
night and he, too, is aided by the
fact that many of the star members
of last years aggregation are back
in uniform. Practice is on in ear
nest at Athletic park at which the
games are to be played.
Forty candidates responded to
Coach Nixon of the Davenport fac
ulty in his call for candidates. The
squad will be even larger than that
for there are many who are awaiting
the arrival of a new set of uniforms
before taking to the field. With six
of last years team and many of the
principal reserves back. Davenport
figures on again landing the tri-city
championship.
ST. Ambrose. the Turkey day op-
ponents of the local high school
team and last year a newcomer in
the tri-city field Of sports, had a
squad of IL men out to practice last
night The squad will be consider
ably augmented before the week is
out as a number of the prospective
players and several of last years
team have not yet returned to school.
The squad will include over half OF
last years team and the prospects for
a successful year are bright.
