Manager John Camel. who was found
wanting when he tried to put over Q

him, for who hasn't?--is the man who
is responsible for the Rochester PEN

to the bitter end any and all attempts
to keep him from winning his fourth

Camel mas had the most remarkable
success with the Broncos that has ever

FOUR BRONCO STARS WITH
HlGHlANOERS.

At the present time there are four
Broncos in the cast of the Highlanders,
and they are regarded about as good
as any players on the team At any
rate they are as clever players as any
of the newcomers. Pitcher George Nc
Connell, Shortstop Mcmillan. Outfielder
Lelivelt and Second Baseman Simmons
are the men who promise to be big fac
tors In Manager Wolverton's plans for a
pennant contender next season.
This is only sample OF the way In
which the majors have stripped Camel
OF the stars he has developed. yet with
all this he manages to put a team oil he

The International League race this
year IL probably the most even In the
history OF the orga nization. and al
though there have been reports ema-
mating from Jersey city and Newark
that their clubs have not been paying.
it is a good bet that no money Is being
lost
The International League Is for the
most part composed of men who have
had anywhere from one to ten years

QUEER GIANTS.

The Brooklyn fellows are putting
forth extraordinary efforts to give the
Giants a trimming. and they appear to
be AS anxious to beat the Champs as II
they had chance for the nag them,

Don't you want to see the Giants win
the pennant?" some one asked Ebbets
after yesterdays game.

can't beat "a team like ours I don't think
they can expec. to beat the Red Sox
for the worlds championship. We all
want to see New York win out as long
~ Brooklyn can't, but IL they get the
nonor we are song to see that they

While discussing baseball In general,
Ebbets admitted that the McIIeever
brothers had secured some stock In tho
Brooklyn club. lie said that the finances
OF the team are In excellent shape and
that the new grounds would be opened
before the end OF the season.

in the country, will bid farewell to the

The pleasure car section has had so
many novelties and special features that
il is difficult to enumerate them all.
Many of the exhibitors have made par
ticular endeavor to embellish their spaces
in addition TO the beautiful scheme of
decoration supplied by the management;
notably among these was the Buick ex-
hjhit. This company has enhanced the
beauty of its space by a quantity OF
cut flowers and foliage. This, togeth-
er with the extra lighting effects, made
the Buick exhibit bright spot that at
tracted ones attention from every point.
With the close of this show Boston
will not lose its place as the present
attraction for the motorists, for Wednes-
day, March IS, Mechanics building will
be again open to the public and the first
Independent motor truck show to be held
in Boston will be ushered in. Prac-
tically all the accessory dealers will re-
main for the second week. The rapid
strides made in the motor truck has
bcct carefully watched by the business
man, so that although the attendance
may not be quite as great as that of
the pleasure car section, those who do
attend will be directly interested.
One of the many uses that the mo-
tor truck has been put to, and one that
from a humanitarian standpoint is par
ticularly advantageous, is the truck de

Mr.. La Toilette Plans No Action
Against Roosevelt
HE WILL DISCUSS RECORDS
That Will Be Necessary, Declared the
Wisconsin Senator in a Statement
Which Was Issued in Wash
ington Yesterday.

Washington, ID. c., March 9.--"It will
be necessary during this campaign to dis
cuss the records of candidates" said
Senator La Toilette yesterday in a state
ment issued in answer to a report that
he was planning an attack on Col. Roose-
welt. "But such decision" he added,
cannot be distorted into an attack upon
the candidate"
His statement follows:
"On February 20, New York dispatch
to the Washington Post said 'Politi-
clans who have been following the ma.
tional situation say that La Toilette will
shortly make an attack on Col Roosevelt
showing that representations were made
to him by friends of the colonel to the ef
feet that he ia Follettel was the IDEAL
man to make the fight against President
Taft
at is not a matter Of great impor
lance to the public why | became
candidate.
The issue of this campaign is the
right Of the individual, the farmer, the
worker, every man who pays tribute, to
free himself by lawful means from the
unjust exactions OF the tariff, the rail
roads. the trusts, the money power con.
trolling capital and credit and every form
of oppression by special privilege.
I'm the presence of these great prob
lens personal attacks upon candidates
should have no place.
"But to determine the fitness Of
candidate to perform particular service
the public has a right to require the
candidate to state each problem and offer
his solution Of that problem,
THE public has the further right to
know what the candidate has actually
done toward solving the problems
whether his course Of action on the whole
gives assurance of profound conviction
and stability Of judgment; whether he is
best equipped by patient investigation
and practical experience to deal with
these problems construetively in the
public interest.
Hence the exact record of a candi-
date on the tariff, the railroads, the
trusts, the money power, subsidies and
other forms of privilege is just as i'm
portant, il may be more important, than
his present declarations.
1T will, therefore, be necessary dur !
ing this campaign, to discuss the records |
Of can1 dates as well as the remedies |
by them to correct existing So
cial and political evils.
but such discussion cannot be distort- |
