It Is really amusing to note how a few of the sporting writers in the cir cult are endeavoring to belittle the champion Barons and to dub them the weakest team that ever won a South ern league pennant" Most of these opinions come from papers where the local club finished well toward the bottom of the ladder and they cant resist the temptation to vent their ire upon the leagues leaders. However 1t Is but human nature to critcise the man who succeeds. It is strange. though, that these same writers did not vocie such opinions when the Bar ons were outplaying and defeating. the different teams in the circuit.
 
 The work of Hendrix and Johnson. formerly with Charlie Franks Per jeans are making a very credltable showing with the Cleveland Maps at present Both of the cX-southern leaguers are hitting and fielding in truly big league style. Johnston Is now leading the Maps batting order.
 Almeida. the hard hitting Cuban. of the 1912 Baron outfit, appeared in theo Cincinnati lineup both in the last game of Wednesdays double header and in the double header yesterday with the New York Giants The Cuban has not yet struck his stride in the hitting line but he scored two runs in the three contests. He has thus far secured but one bingle out of il times up. but as soon as he becomes more ac- customed to the slants of the big leaguers he is not likely to be found wainting in the hit column. Incidental ly, the man whom Almeida has to beat out for q permanent berth in the big show is Phelan. the peppery third baseman of the 1911 Baron club.

These are times in which party
lines are being largely eliminated in
that different schools of thought are
being created with the two great
political parties, leaders are being ar
rayed against leaders and interne-
cine strife and contention prevail, 1t is
an alignment in which predatory priv
ilege is warning with the interests of
the people. Decisions Of courts, of
quasi judicial tribunals, rulings of
commissions, acts of congress and
the various state legislatures are
having an anomalous result. The
people are disconnected, business is
stagnant, results are in doubt, peo-
pie are dubious. There are constant
ly arising new conditions, and rem
edies must be created to meet these
changing conditions.
In order to see just what the peo.
pie should do for their own good,

sistance. When the Virginian first
reported catching the &C. @. D." sig,

be able to reach the Titanic before
10 a. IN. today. That would have been
nearly eight hours after the Titanic
sank. 1t was equally doubtful that
the Partisan could have reached the
scene in time.
Mr.. Franklin said that from his

have stuck to his bridge and gone
