LOWELL WILSON

Suggestion Made that Bisbee
Democrats Join Hands
With Associates in
NeighbOr City
REPUBLICANS ASLEEP

Were it not for the staunch old
democratic bailiwick of Lowell, poll
tics would be at a low ebb in the
Warren district this campaign. Low
ell is at the forefront with the one
strong political organization here
abouts, and among the faithful Of
Bisbee, the suggestion is frequently
heard that "Bisbee democrats ought
to get behind the Lowell Wilson club
and thereby still further increase its
strength and usefulness"
Before the campaign began the

At the primary an effort was made

Taft Clubs Lacking
And who has heard Of a Taft club
hereabouts? The nearest approach
to anything OF the kind was the meet
ing of the republican county commit
tee, which was more or less Of q
perfunctory affair. There is no en-
thusiasm for the present White
House incumbent, and he is away out
of the running, so little or no rec
publican campaign can be expected.
Thus far there has been no VIII
son club formed in Bisbee. There is
apparently too much of a feeling Of
confidence prevailing, but among some
of the wiser heads. in the old larty
of fair play and popular rights. there
is 8 feeling that something ought to

since Lowell has the organization,
the suggestion is more and more fire.

Greatest Dead-letter Rule
i'm the Game of Baseball

In the July American Maya
zine, Hugh S. Fullerton, writing
an article entitled How to Win
Baseball Games" says:
THE rule prohibiting baking
is perhaps the greatest dead
letter in the game, and every
finished pitcher has cultivated a
balk motion, a false start, calcu-
lated to hold runners close to
first base, or to catch them off
the base in case they make a
false start. The runner can in
variably detect the real from the
false pitching motion by watch
ing the muscles at the back of
the pitching shoulder of the man
on the slab. No pitcher can con
ceal the preparatory launching of
those muscles, and although
some, notably Ed Walsh, of the
Chicago White Sox, have cult
waited a false motion of the mus
cles, even these limitations do not
duplicate the real movement.
Not infrequently a base runner
can tell by studying the pitchers
habitual tricks Of delivery when

Great Superintendent Of
Rural Schools.

According to an article in the
July American Magazine, Eli NJ.
Rapp, superintendent of rural
schools in Berks County, Penn
~sylyania, has made his county
schools a model for the country.
His essential idea is that farm
children should be educated for
the farm. After reporting the
various improvements which Mr..
Rapp has instituted, the author
Of the article goes on to say:
There are many other ways
in which Superintendent Rapp
has endeavored to improve the
rural schools OF the county, but
none has aroused as much in
terest as the Boys Agricultural

he intends to pitch and when he
is planning a throw to first base.
For instance, | know one famous
American League pitcher who
invariably before pitching to a
batter reaches out his right foot
and scratches the dirt in front
Of the plate with his spikes. 1t
is a nervous trick of which he
himself is unconscious, but he
never paws that way when he
intends to throw to first. The
base runner who knew that fact
would get a flying start every
time, and either would steal Sec
ond or force the pitcher to make
a palpable balk. In running
from first to second a runner
must keep his eye entirely upon
the man who is receiving the
throw and throw himself either
inside or outside the base line,
dropping his body away from the
runner and hooking the base
with his foot. The hooking of
the base is an art in itself There
is one of the fastest and best
base runners in the business
who would rank close to Cobb
but for the fact that after MAX
ing a perfect slide, he cannot
hold to the base with his foot
and slides on past the bag and
nine out of ten times is tagged

of the prettiest girls in school,
devised becoming coiffures for
them, put them on exhibition
and presto! the hair trade is in
a panic. It is doubtful if any
reforms in the world of feminine
fashion, however necessary or
beneficial they may seem, will
be accomplished in this genera
ton unless the reformers can
demonstrate that they have
something more alluring to sub
stitute. Those physicians who
are alarmed because they think
the tight skirts are producing a
race of knock-kneed women will
make no progress merely by cir
culating their alarmist views.
Dressmakers and their customers
will unite in laughing them to
scorn. What they really should
do is to devise some variety of
clothing which will meet their
notions on the hygienic side and
a. the same time can be made to
appear fascinating in the fashion
pictures. Then the future of
the race will be assured. Legs
will be free and straight. That

Science Club. All over Berks
county boys and girls are to be
found wearing the emblems Of
these two organization, one read
ing BOYS Agricultural Club of
Berks County, with the words
Better Farming in the center,
and the other Girls Domestic
Science Club of Berks County,
surrounding the motto Better
Housekeeping Each year
these clubs have an exhibition
at Reading which is a miniature
county fair. The boys show
vegetables, field crops and poul-
try in prize contests, while the
girls display dainty products of
the needle as well as bread, pies
and other articles.
Zone effect Of these contests
has been to stimulats the inter-
est of the parents in better farm
ing methods and to increase
their respect for the rural school
and for agricultural training in
general. In some instances the
boys have been able to grow bet
ter crops than their fathers ever
have produced. Moreover, the
farmers and their boys have
been brought into closer rela-
tionship and have come to I'M
derstand each other better"

ny RALPH SMITH.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April 15.-Sen-
ator Hoke Smith today addressed the
senate in opposition to the workmen' S
compensation bill, which was recently
favorably reported by the senate judi
ciary committee. The senator's speech
was the first that has been delivered
against the measure, to which the rail-
road employees of Georgia are strongly
opposed. 1t is believed that his speech
today. which was the first thorough
public analysis of the bill, will have the
effect of arousing general opposition to
the measure throughout the country.
Senator Smith discussed its provisions
in great detail, and pointed out its I'M
fairness to the men whom it is sup
posed to relieve
A synopsis of Senator Smiths speech
follows:
SYNOPSIS OF SPEECH.
The proposed bill known as the work
mems compensation bill provides that it
shall be the exclusive remedy of en-
ployes injured. on railroads engaged in
interstate commerce. 1t will take the
place of the employers liability act and
the safety appliance act in fixing liabil-
ity for injuries. Neither these acts nor
the proposed bill will apply to employ
es of railroad companies not engaged in
interstate commerce.
The safety appliance act and the en-
ployers' liability act have only been
fully sustained by the supreme court of
the United States during the past few
months The benefits which the en-
ployes will derive from these acts are
now, for the first time, to be fully ex-
perienced.
THE safety appliance act deals with
engines, cars. and other appliances and
prescribes construction safe to the men
at practically every point where before
the lack of safe construction caused in
juries to employees.
LIABILITY ACT.
The employers liability act passed by
congress in 1903, amended in 1910, and
sustained by the supreme court Febru-
