I National league will surely open to-

Ebbetts' Field is superbly located,

the geographical center of Greater
New York is only one-half mile from
the field. The transit facilities are
wellnigh perfect, no fewer than twelve
direct lines of surface and elevated
electric lines being within two min
utes' walk of the field.
There are eighteen exits on the

GREGG OF PENNSYLVANIA

New York, Sept 4.-Out in West
ern Pennsylvania, where I live, I dis
covered a wonderful Wilson senti-
ment. The people here are progress
sive. They believe that there has
been too much standpatism. The
people are of the opinion that the
best thing to do is to vote for Gov
ernor Wilson.
They will do this because they have
the most absolute confidence in his
honesty. They take what Governor
Wilson says as being perfectly right,
and feel that what he will do and has
done conforms exactly to his prom
ise..
I look for a landslide in Western
Pennsylvania to Wilson. The one par
ticular thing that appeals to our peo-
pie at home is his magnificent char
acter. That, together with his admit
ted ability as a scholar and states
man, will bring many independent
voters to his assistance.

Just why a number of persons

baseball season is not yet closed, is
something that the state house Off
Gals who handle charters have not
been able to figure out.
In the past charters of this sort
have been turned down because of
lurking suspicion in the guberna-
