A lot of fans have asked the writer
why Gear kept Schmidt on the catch

the first July 4 game. The big fellow
showed as good as any catcher who
ever worked here and better than he
has at any other time this season. The
base runners had about as much luck
with him as the Pueblo fireman with

Six weeks ago Wainwright, who had
been sent to Manhattan for seasoning
was released by that club. Gear re-
leased him outright. Then the mana

husky Ruston athlete to report at

been kept on the payroll. Day after

dOfeat of the man who had been their champion, they quietly be- gan toadvise their friends to sup port Robinson, and the landslide was on. This had begun by the the time the Donaghey headquar- ters were opened, and when E.

He was fight ing for a friend, and felt that he could afford to accept defeat for the same

 During two sessions of the legislature Gov. Donaghey fought for principles. He made new enemies at every turn. Each of these enemies became an active worker against the Governor. While they could not be forced to admit it, each of these men knew the Governor was making ahght for the people, and not for his self. In addition to this Gov. Donaghey declined many things which friends asked for which could not have injured the state, and would have proven highly beneficial to the followers. He declined to play politics with his office. In this manner the most influential men in practical. ly every county in the state turn ed against Gov. Donaghey.
 Then the campaign opened. The active workers in each coun- ty were augmented by promin- ent men who had personal req sons for supporting Joe T. Rob- inson. They were either close personal friends, relatives, or had pledged their support to Robinson before the lineup in the gubernatorial contest was an nounced. The managers of the Robinson campaign began putt ing the governor on the defense at the first shot of their guns, and as soon as he made effort to answer one. they brought in a new issue and kept him contin. ually explaining.

1 llMENTATION FOR
 THE VANQUISHED
Bv A. w. Parke

rjttle Rock, Ark, April 1>-Now tbat the steam has died away ,rom the recent Democratic nrimary-the old proverbial smoke will not answer in this ease as a more modern ammuni- linn was used, and it does not make smoke wben it burns there remains only to be told some of the causes for the land slide for Robinson. There is nothing now but qualification for the yictors and lamentation for the vanQuished.
 Having visited every section of state within a month previous to the primaries, and watched the changing of conditions l can give hut one reason for the defeat of Gov. Donaghey ey-his failure to play politics. Overconidence might have contributed a bit early in the game, butysometime before the election Gov. Donag- hey realized what a fight he had on his hands and gamely buckled to the task. Even then he de- cEned to play politics. He tried tOride into office on ideals and found the people looking rather for personal gain for the ends to be gained through following the notices of the old writing tablets
 Gov. Donaghey fought his way into office, and no matter whet. her he was right or wrong, took with him into office the enmity of people of influence in the state who were never known to quit lighting. He was the hero of certain clique when he was in augurated, which thought it

said that the state is going to the boWwoWs just because Joe T. Robinson has been elected Gov. ernor-or the same thing by get ing the Democratic nomination. No finer materialcould have been selected out of which to make a cheif executive While he may differ in many material points with the administration of Gov
 DOnaghey, if he wants to make a great governor he must continue certain of the reforms which
 have been started, and it would be hard to find any one who in innate that Joe T. Robinson has not the ambition to make a great governor of a great state.
 In all his life Joe T. Robinson has been a clean man. His vote in Congress was never the sub ject of adverse criticism. His record in the halls of Congress may not be very long on the in. troduction of bills nor in their passage, butno follower of good

with the State Capitol, rang in the Turner-Jacobson bill with the cry of increased taxes which Is red flag in the face of the small property owner, juggled the figures to show the governor was to blame for the financial condition of Arkansas today, and with almost the same breath they charged him with being a cold blooded monster for veto ing many of the reckless appropi- atlons made by the legislature. Gradually, but surely, the op, peration drove Gov. Donaghey to declaration, for State Wide Prohibition. Naturally inclined in that direction, the governor took up the gauntle and carried the fight to the bulwark of the opposition. The opposition un dertook to discredlt the sincerity of Gov. Donaghey in his stand for prohibition,, and so split the prohibition ranks that the fight along this line was against the Governor, instead of the prohibition forces aiding him.
 From closely watching the situation, I believe that it was just before he made his declara- tion for Statewide Prohibition that Gov. Donaghey realized he was doomed to defeat. Gov. Donaghey is one of the best political judges the state has ever had. He can look over the state and come very near telling what is going to happen. Many things which happened about this time, convince me that Gov. Donaghey determined to hit straight from the shoulder for prohibitions, again throwing politics to the wind. He did not grab at the prohibition plank in his platform as a drowning man would a straw. He apparently knew that it meant certain de- feat when he discontinued his pleading for submission of the liquor question to the people and spoke right out for statewide prohibition Even at that time he could have had liquor forces behind him, but he disdained all their advances and the leaders saw no hope for them on that side of fence and they fought all the harder for the opposition.
 In every speech he made Gov Donaghey became more bitter against the people and combina. tions he considered to be the 1 enemies of the state. He declin- ed to take advice from people | who claimed to be his friends, and made Rome howl with the denunciation he gave interests and former members of the legislature. Though he knew that it would lose him vote Gov. Donaghey went into the home of | these former legislatures ana | made his speech there all the more bitter.

ATHENS, Greco, oct 14!-The release
within twenty-four hours of the Greek
vessels confiscated by Turkey is to be
demanded today by the Greek minister
at Constantinople. In the note which
he is to hand to the Turkish government
the payment of an indemnity to the own
ers of the vessels is also demanded.
The Greek note is in the nature of an
ultimatum which official circles think
it is certain Turkey will promptly re-
fuse to comply with. 1t means, there
fore, immediate war.
There is no doubt that Turkey knew
the seizure of ships before the break
ing out of hostilities was an act Of
war, and according to the most relia-
BILE information from Constantinople
the Ottoman government knows this ac-
ton to be provocation.
