SPORTING NEWS LETTER
BY G.. III. ZUBER.

Cincinnati, July 27.-The Reds pre-
sent series of games at home with the
Eastern teams are taking OH the as
pect of the early spring contests, W hen
new talent is rampant and the fans go
out in droves in order to size up the
new men and decide for themselves
what extent they will;fit into the local
scenery. The acquisition of number
of new players during the past few
weeks has brought about sort Of
springtime atmosphere, especially as
President Hermann has requested
Manager Griffith to try these men out
now instead of waiting until the last
few days of the season. by which time
all of them would be more or less
stale. President Hermann goes on
the theory that we know what the old
men are capable of and what they
have been doing so far this season
now it's up to Griffith to find oft what
the recruits are made of, AMI so. from
now until the team leaves again Tor
it's third and last Eastern invasion, all
the new men that are added to the
roster of the team will be trotted out
for demonstration and inspection.
And the results are certain to be bene-
fetal in the matter of deciding who
shall and who shall not stick with the
team for next season.
The indications are good that Mar
sans and Almeida, the two Cubans on
whom the club has an option, Will
stick with the team. In the games
played so far Marsans, the outhelder.
has shown the superior class. He
fields beautifully, throws hard and far,
is lightning fast on the bases, and can
hit some. Almeida also is speedy and
has a strong arm, but seems to suffer
a slight handicap in being somewhat
slow in getting throws away. How
ever, that is q fault that can easily be
corrected, and there is no doubt but
that he " i'll overcome it before long.
In all other respects he looks the part
of real ball player. and it is pretty
safe to assert that he and Marsans
will be seen regularly in the lineup
during 1.-The next few weeks. and
especially in next Sundays game with
Brooklyn and on the following Sunday
with Philadelphia.
The other new men who will be tried
while the Reds are at home are GrleVe
and Balenti, shortstops. At present
Ed Coant is covering short field tor
the team, as that appears to be the
weakest place on the infeld. If he
makes good during these trials, the
new manager of the Reds will have
but little trouble with his lineup, as
good third basemen are plentiful, The
Reds having Esmond and Almeida as
extra men on the job, with Arthur
Pbelan, who was with the team for a
short time last fall. and who burned
up things in the Southern League this
year. coming along later on. 1t is ex-
pected that Balenti, who showed some
speed in the last game at Brooklyn,
will be used in next Sundays game
against the Dodg ers, no mater now
good the work of Grant may be during
the rest of the week. Other young
sters that are added from time to time
will be displayed as fast as they re-
port, Sd mat the fans will have some
thing to interest them, even though
the team doesn't reach the first divis-
ion.

Another Cross-State Highway.

l. NJ Stellard, highway engineer
of Buchanan county, is a9itatln8
the move of a crOsS-state highway
between Hannibal and St Jose. h.
This is an enterprise that will re-
ceive the endorsement of all the
counties along the line. The Han
nibal Commercial Club has long
Teen considering the matter, and its
enthusiastic secretary, Mr.. Sydney
j. Roy, remarked last summer that
such a highway would certainly be
built in the near future. In the
middle of the last century there
was an old state road connecting the
two rivers, and an immense freight
and passenger traffic was carried
along it. 1t was known as the
Bloomington road. Bloomington
was a sort of relay station for the
stages. There is many man liV-
ing in Macon county now who was
freight teamster on that old road
Most of the merchandise ordered by
merchants in these parts was ship
ped from St. Louis to Hannibal on
steamboats,, and then freighted into
the interior. The mail coaches run
night and day. The road was in
fairly good condition, except that
only the larger streams we're bridged
and in times of high water traffic
was often suspended. This old state
road was followed by the gold seek
ers in 1849, at which time caravan
after caravan of OK wagons passed
along through all hours of the day
and night.
1t was the main artery of com.
merce before the Hannibal & St
Joe railroad was constructed and il
was also extensively used for short
distance travel long afterwards. -

Efficiency in Advertising.

One principal of successful adver-
Using as practised by department
store and writers and other special

descriptions of the goods ordered.
When a merchant uses such phrases
as The best is the cheapest, and
Biggest assortment and lowest
prices" he cOnVinces no one. The
reader argues that anyone can use
these catch words and they prove
nothing,
The most successful advertising
is not apt to sound like an at
tempt to persuade. 1t is more a
statement of facts. The reader is
given material by which he forms
his own mental picture of the
goods.

detailed though very brief descrip-
ton. Get manufacturers of your

Very much surprise is expressed
in Wall street over some recent re-
ports of the railroads and especially
over the big increase in passenger
revenue on the Burlington, Illinois
Central, Rock Island and other roads
operating in the 2-cent fare states.
The result of the laws establishing
the 2-cent rate shows the superiori-
ty of the wisdom of the people who
enacted them over that of district
federal judges who attempted to
stop their enforcement by injunc-
ton because they were "confisca-
tory" Government by the people
is a much wiser and better thing
than government by the courts. -

be working overtime 10 get up
scrap between the friends of Gov.
Folk and Champ Clark
The Republic only has to turn
back few pages Of political history
in this state to learn what divid-
ed, scrapping party has brought
about in Missouri.
In yesterdays paper the Repub-
lie editorially, says: Some people
profess to fear that two Democratic
presidential candidates from one
state may prove injurious to the
party, but there is room for differ
ence of opinion as to that. Presi-
dental aspirants from the day that
they are first suggested until their
case is finally disposed of must de-
fend their claims against all corners.
1t is by the severest processes of
comparison, competition and elimi-
nation that national standard bear
ers are at length selected
Does the Republican countenance
the ignoring of party pledge made
in the party's platform of 1910?
Would it be the part of wisdom for
the Democracy of this state to re-
pudiate pledge of that character?
Governor Folk was not at the state
capital when the convention met.
He did not personally solicit an en-
dorsement of any kind. With de-
liberation he was made Missouri's
candidate for the presidency by the
unanimous vote of an accredited
state democratic convention author
lied to make platform. He is not
a self-seeking candidate--but the
candidate of the Missouri Democra-
cy, made so by an official action.
A house divided against itself can
not stand. We must either be for
Folk or against him. We must 60
to the national convention either to
carry out the party's pledge or re-
pudiate it.
The November election will fol-
low the convention. What would
be the result of reputation? This
is serious question to consider
right now.
And what would be the result of
a state primary to decide between
Folk and Clark? How much of the
party would be left after such a
battle?
! The Journal has the highest re-
gard for Speaker Clark. 1t has fought
his battles for years and will con-
tinue to fight them. But suppose
} he would win in a bitter primary
contest in Missouri and receive the
nomination, what chance would he
have to secure the electoral vote OF
. the state? What chance would the
party have to elect a state ticket in
Missouri?
} Champ Clark has said time and
again that he is not a candidate for
the presidency. He has also said
that no man ever refused that high
Office. He would not refuse it
= would not refuse the nomination
5 Missouri would not have him re
fuse the nomination. There is {
r decided Clark sentiment throughout
the Republic. Missouri appreciate;
the esteem in which its distinguish
