Bail Players for Taft,

ASs
Every hall player in the country,
in my opinion. will vote for President
Taft" said Henry Labold of Pitts
burg. who is one Of the stockholders
In several Of the National league
clubs.
"The generous patronage Of Presi-
dent Taft toward the national game
has not failed to be noticed by bail
the first chief executive who has
made q practice Of attending games
In Washington and in other cities
whenever he has been able to find
the time and opportunity. The ball
players appreciate the attitude Of Mr..
Taft. not only toward the great game
OF baseball. but toward the players
themselves. News that the president
had received Ty Cobb and other
eminent players at the white house
has reached every section where base
ball 10 played. and I have never fail
ed to hear kindest words spoken Of
Mr.. Taft, almost always accompanied
by the statement that the players will
vote for him in November.
Nov. while Governor Wilson was
an athlete and, I hear. once a coach
Of his college team, he has not been
conspicuous as a patron OF baseball.
Colonel Roosevelt would much rather
patronize q prize fight or indulge in
a boxing match. It Is said. than attend
a ball game. These little things count,
you may know, and I am convinced
that II the ball players Of the coun-
try could name the next president
Of the United States they would select

TOO sANGU1NE.

The defeat of the woman suffrage
amendment in Ohio seems to have
been received with surprise by a great
mass Of the public. Yet why it should
be SO Is not clear, unless that the very
ag~gressivness Of the campaign con-
Quoted in its behalf was misinterpret-
ed as signifying a proportionate pop
ular enthusiasm which seems to have
been far from being the case. After
the shock Of keen disappointment
caused by the failure to realize over
sanguine expectations has passed the
friends Of the movement may, upon
reflection, conclude that they really
did about as we'll as could reasonably
have been expected.
But six states have accorded wom-
en- full suffrage. All these are in the
west. the farthest east being Colo
RADIO. Five adjoin one another. and
California, for all practical purposes,
might az well be considered in the
group. The progress Of the movement
in that CLAIM of states may therefore
be assumed as interdependent. Wy
oming granted women the ballot in
1869. Colorado, its southern neigh
Dor, followed long after in 1898: then
Utah. to the west of Colorado, and
Idaho. west Of Wyoming, together in

Joined in 1910, and California carried

To expect to Jump from the far

propaganda that had made no CORE

cally progressive southwest or the in.
t%ervening states was surely over-opti-
mistic. Even the states in which the

MONDAY. SEPTEMBER .. 1912.
THE WAR FEVER.

From the success Of the recent
countrywide maneuvers Of the militia
1t Is quite evident. as army officers
point out, that another wave OF mar
tial enthusiasm, similar to that fol-
lowing the declaration Of the war
against Spain, is sweeping over the
United States. All reports indicate
that the militia establishment Is more
enthusiastic and Of greater force and
effectiveness than has been the case
since 1898. The regular army. also.
is a more effectiveshghting force than
at any time within recent years as
a result Of the Texas mobilization.
There need not be much specula-
ton as to the cause OF the filing up
Of the ranks Of the citizen soldiery
and the regular army. The number
of men who have red blood in their
veins and yet want to join the army
when there is no prospect Of fighting
is not very large. Those who seek
the army as a resting place seldom
are able to pass the examinations.
It Is only when there is a Whit Of
powder and the distant rumbling Of
cannon that there is a rush to the
army. The love of excitement is very
strong in the breasts of most men.
They want action. In times Of peace.
they look upon the army as some
thing stagnant. But when war is in
the air, the army makes a strong ap-
peal.
1t is a good thing hat there are.
nevertheless, a multitude of good,
fearless, and reliable men who look
upon the army as an occupation and
not merely as a means to excitement.
Even these men. who stay in the
army for long periods when there is
no prospect Of war, usually nurse the
hope that they viii see some fighting.
Perhaps the knees of some Of them
might tremble a bit in their first bat
tie. but when there is no sign OF ap-
preaching conflict they suffer from
ennui.
The reason there Is no dearth of
volunteers for the militia or the reg
ular army just now is because of the
rumblings in Mexico, Nicaragua, and
other Latin-American countries. The
Boy Scout movement is a little too
new to take any Of the credit, or dis
credit, for the martial wave. After
a while, Y hen the present Boy Scouts
are boys no longer. the effects of that
movement will be more apparent. But
in the meantime a tense situation be-
tween this country and any foreign
nation or actual hostilities in any part
o fthis hemisphere where Uncle Sam
may be called upon to interfere will
be quite sufficient to set the blood
stirring and the youth Of the country
hustling to the recruiting offices.
