After that it was a cakewalk. The

swathed in adipose tissue began to take
counsel with themselves. They were

How a man can run as a republican

one other than the regular republican
presidential nominee, we do not under

Roosevelt desires to found q new party,
with a new name. People who wish to
Tohow him should join his new party,
and let go Of the name republican.
Roosevelt has no desire to retain the
name and says so. For an elector to
run as a republican, and not intending
to vote for Taft, is not only dishonest,
but is contrary to the whole theory of
the electoral system. The republican
nominee, good or bad, is William. iH:

Senator Cummins is right in saying
that a third party cannot prevent
bosses. Bosses are created through
the Indifference Of the people, and
disappear when ever the people are
vigiiant, intelligent and energetic.
The boss is simply leader developed
abnormally. No intelligent, honest
American would call Bryan, for in
stance, a boss. He is leader in the
highest sense of: the term. He has no
offices to give, no contracts to divide
no favors to apportion among his fol:
lowers. He is leader by virtue of his
strength of moral character coupled
with the inherent strength Of the

We are profoundly sorry that Har-
per's Weekly is going to support Will
son, and we believe it is being done
in order to do him harm. In the same
issue which praises Wilson (possibly
because Taft cannot be elected) there
is the most bitter, scurrilous, rotten
lying statement about Bryan we have
ever read. Harper's cannot of course
give Bryan what every fairminded
paper in the United States, in all
parties, is giving-credit for the re-
suit at Baltimore. What Wilson thinks
Of Harper's is already known as he
said some time ago. that its support was
a burden. We hope he says 50 again.

oficially announced that this game would

HUGE SUCCESS
Nearly 5000 Bowlers to Compete
in Record Tourna-
ment.

Chicago. March 2-Chica go's wonder
ful bowling tournament. with its almost
sco fve-men clubs, its i.412 two-man
teams, and its 2.ssi individual entries.
started here tonight in the Dexter Park
Pavilion. before a crowd OF spectators
that jammed the immense bleacher to its
limit and left mob Of cheering en-
thuslasts on the floor. The tournament,
which was opened here tonight is the
twelfth annual meet OF the American
Bowling Congress and is larger by over
one-haIf than the greatest meet ever be-
fore organized in the history Of the
game.
Prizes aggregating almost $4,000 are
hung up for the successful contestants
In the three weeks battle with the maple
Pins. and the men who capture the ma
tional titles this year will not only reap
a harvest OF glory, but substantial sum
OF money on the side. The prize list will
be adopted the middle of next week II
the time the congress will be in SEES
sion. The representation by States shows
over twenty who have flied entries with
Secretary Abe Langtry this year. not
counting two Of the provinces of Canada.
Greater New York and Washington, ID.
c.. are the points farthest removed from
the tournament alleys on the east, Los
Angeles Is the farthest on the west, while
Mobile, Ala, and Winnipeg are sending
the clubs the longest distances north and
south.
Chicago's own part in the big meet
is 225 fve-men clubs. the greatest single
entry ever secured from any one CITY
and a number that excels the total entry
OF the first seven entries.
President Charles \. ComisEey, the
head Of the Chicago Bowling Tournament
Company. which is financing the pres
ent meet, has passed the word that
everything this year must be handled to
the limit and the outside bowlers will
be given the time of their lives II plans
already laid are carried out.
The building where the meet has been
staged is probably the largest Of its kind
in the country. a glass roof over l5b
feet high hanging over the alleys. euOr-
nous chandeliers scattered under the big
dane. making the interior as light as
day. and doing away with lights on the

ranged before, over 1900 seats being in

Erwin Says Managers
Must Develop Their Stars

made a great second osssnan out OF him.
Devore, OF New York. didn't amount to
much when the Giants got him. Nc
Graw, however. saw a future for him and
made him learn In the bushes What
vas the result? The Giants deveIoped a
great nttle outfleIder.
1t took the PkIllies a year TO make n
good pitcher out OF Chalmers. When We
got Connell a lot Of persons said he
didn't amount TO much, but 7 knew bet
ter. I watched that man and l saw the
makings Of great pitcher. You want
to watch that fellow tins year. The
years experience and teachings he has
had in the International League Is going
to have its result this year. Russ Ford
was a gawky fellow when We got him. but
after a years workout with Jersey City
he developed. OF course all these fellows
showed signs OF better playing form VIXEN
they were first looked over. and all they
needed 10 develop was some one who
could teach them what to do
Irwin says he doesn't think II a wise
pan 10 spend large sums OF money Tor
players. Pick up youngsters who look
good. says Irwin. and you will get bet
ter results. That is my plan. Young
sters make better players than these So
called stars"
No one knows the scarcity OF real stars
better than the scouts, declared Irwin.
"Pittsburg has spent fully 10000 in the
past five years and as yet it hasn't Sc
cured first baseman. They have never
had a real first sacker since the days Of
Kitty Bransfield. They need a first base
man so badly this year that either Wag-
ner or Miller may have TO cover the
bag.
THE St. Louis Browns have been try
ing for ive years to pick up a third
baseman. but they haven't got q star for
tEat place yet.
THE time is now ripe when clubs must
develop their own men, You can't buy
the talent any more. The competition Is
too great. And the fellow who Is able
to pick up the men who show future
ability is the man who can bring success
to team. Developing players Is the
keynote TO teams success. Unless
r'ana gers can do this they stand little
chance to build up winning teams, no
matter how much money is behind them. .

that's why il is so hard for any one clun

stars.
- remember the days wHen money
could buy big men; but now cluos must
develop them. Few of the leading batters
to-day were purchased for large amounts.
but. of course. there are exceptions. Take
Detroit's case with Ty CObO. for instance.
The Tigers got him from a small bush
league. but they had TO develop him first
before he was anything. Most every
beadliner on the diamond to-day after
being brought to the majors had to be
sent back to the minors for seasoning.
There's Iris Speaker, OF Boston. FOR
instance. When the SON got MIN he didn't
know much. but ne was man VINO
could be taught. The SoX saw that and
sent Kim back to The minors 10 learn
something. Jimmy Collins case is an
other similar one. Ii took Pittsburg two
years to develop Jack Miller, but after
the Pirates got through with him they
