THE DETROIT PLAYERS
RETURN TO THEIR JOBS
Tigers Yield in Order to Save NaVin
From Trouble Without Giving Up
Principle.

Philadelphia, May 20.-0n the
ground that they did not want to see
Frank Navin, president of the club,
suffer for any action on their part,
the players of the Detroit American
league baseball club called off their
strike late this afternoon and agreed
to play the regular scheduled game in
Washington tomorrow without the
services of Ty Cobb. Thus ends one
of the most extraordinary situations
that have ever been brought about in
organized baseball. In announcing
their decision to return to the field,
the players say they want it distinct
ly understood that they still will
fght for the principle involved and
ior which they struck.
In returning to the club the play
ers receivd no concessions from Ban
Johnson, who had Indefinitely sus-
pended Ty Cobb for attacking spec
tator in a game in New York last
week. Mr.. Navin, however, promised
the men that if they returned he.
would do his utmost to have Cobb re-
instated as quickly as possible; that
he would do all he could as a club
owner to have the American league
give better protection to the players
on the field against unsportsmanlike
conduct on the part of spectators and
that he will see that none Of the play
ers will suffer any financial loss as the
result of any fines that may be inn
posed on them.

Greenville, May 20.-Magistrate In
man today decided in favor of o. K.
Mauldin the claim and delivery suit
brought by him against Sheriff j.
Perry Poole for the recovery of two
barrels of liquor which he purchased
here two weeks ago at a public auc-
ton ordered by Federal Judge Henry
A. NJ Smith. The decision settles, so
far as The magisterial court extends,
the first clash between State and fed
eral authorities IS over the recent ruling
of Judge Smith that the government
has a right to sell intoxicating liquors

COL. FRANK S. EVANS
FOR CONGRESS
GreenwOOd's Foremost Citizen Will
Give Aiken the Race of His
Life.
Anderson Intelligencer.

Anderson 1nreIngencer.
With the entry of Col. Frank S. Ev-
ans in the congressional race in this
district the Intelligence is willing to
commit itself with whatever influence
1t possesses to his hearty and enthus-
iastic support In so doing We are
actuated by the progressive spirit Of
the age, which spirit has so firmly in
trenched itself into the inward work
ings of commercial and legislative
bodies that the first laws Of nature
demand that the people who would
become powerful and who would make
their influence felt must seize upon
and utilize that progressive spirit ev-
cry day in the week including Sundays
Col Evans is not professional poll
tician, but a professional business
man, one of that kind who combines
good common horse sense and prac-
teal judgment with the business he
has to do, and therein lies the secret
of his success. 1t is this trait of his
training that makes him both a prac-
teal politician and a practical busi-
ness man. 1t has often been a subject
of remark, if not of criticism, that the
South pays no attention to the busi-
ness qualifications possessed by a can
didate for Office, but selects him be-
cause Of the popularity of his father
or some other distinguished predeces-
sor who himself attained distinction
because of his warm hand-shake and
perennial smile. The time for this
manner Of choosing our representa-
tiyes in congress has passed and we
must select men who are practical
forceful and dynamic in their make
up, men who can cope with the busi-
ness men and seasoned legislators
with whom they must cross swords in
debate on the great questions that will
arise in the halls of congress, that af-
feet not only our own district, but the
welfare of the country at large. The
country itself is undergoing a tremen-
dous upheavel and conditions are rap
idly changing The sphere of inf1u-
ence, for so many years confined to
the great east and north, is naturally
shifting to the South. This is true
in commercial and industrial lines as
we'll as in political thought and ac-
ton. Never since the War Between
the States has a Southern candidate

condemned by the United States court
in any locality, irrespective of the
States "wet' or "dry" territories.
In rendering his decision Magistrate
Inman said: Before alcoholic liquor
can be confscated by the State it must
be shown that the same is contraband
and that it was obtained in an unlaW-
full manner Or obtained in a lawful
manner but for an unlawful purpose.
1t having been shown by the testi-
mony that the sale was lawful one
and that the liquor was not purchas-
ed for an unlawful purpose, decide
for the paintiff."
The main issue at stake was wheth-
er or not the federal government had
a right to sell intoxicating liquor in a
locality where a State law prohibited
liquor selling. The plaintiff having
cited section 240 of the United States
criminal code of 1910, and sections
923 and 939 of the United States re-
vised statutes of 1878 as authority for
the governments right to condemn
whiskey shipped in violation of the
interstate commerce laws, as was the
case with the liquor in question, and
ordered it sold at any point the court
designated, this point was passed By.
The second issue at stake was
whether or not the whiskey was con-
traband. Testimony showed conclu-
sively that the liquor was purchased
lawfully (for the government had a
right to sell it, and that it was not
intended to be used for an unlawful
purpose by the purchaser. This IS the
substance of the plaintiffs argument.
Counsel for Sheriff Poole contended
that when the Union was formed by
the several sovereign States each
State surrendered a certain amount OF
it's sovereignty. In doing this, how
ever, the States retained their police
power. The Union, having no police
power, can not step into a State
where the sale of whiskey is prohibit
ed by that States police power and
conduct whiskey sale.
In Magistrate Stradleys court Tues
day the criminal case growing out of
the whiskey sale will be heard. Mr..
Mauldin is charged in this instance
with having in his possession contra
band whiskey.
Dismisses Case Against Mauldin.
Greenville, May 21-Magistrate
Samuel Stradley today dismissed the
charges of. having in possession and
transporting spurious liquors for il
legal purposes" brought against o..
K. Mauldin as result Of his purchas-
ing two barrels Of liquor sold at pub

been sriously urgd for the presidency,
and now the leading figure in that con-
test in our party is a Southern man.
1t is therefore high time that the South
was throwing off the old fetch of
electing good fellows silver ton
gued orators" popular boys" and
men who can't write their own
speeches, to represent them when the
full extent of that representatives in
fuence at Washington lies in his abil-
ity to hobnob the powers that be to Sc
cure a rural route changed to run by
Bill Smiths house or to reimburse
John Jones for a horse stolen by Sher-
mans army long years ago, and these
little favors generally mean that the
representatives vote will be cast for
some measure dear to the hearts Of
the department that grants them.
Col. Evans is fighter of bull dog
tenacity and will make his influence
felt in the halls of congress and in
the councils of his party. He is fear
less and aggressive in debate and will
bring to his district prestige she has
not enjoyed for many years. His thor
ough knowledge of the great questions
now uppermost in the public mind, to-
gether with his broad sympathy for
the masses in their struggle for equal
taxation and relief from burdensome
tariff on the necessities of life will
bring him prominently to the front as
a leader on the floor and in committee.
A perusai of the committee assign
ments in the last congress will afford
ample cause for question as to why
the third district has Jared so badly
at the hands Of a Democratic house,
especially when we are taught that
the best way to secure influence and
prestige in congress is to keep our
representatives there for long periods,
yet with an uninterrupted incumbency
of years, the Democratic committee
having the nomination Of committees
in hand, thought so little of the ser
vices and ability of our representa-
tive that he was given the most un-
important committee assignments at
their disposal. When the Democratic
colleagues of Democratic house, who
are on the grounds and are in posi-
ton to Judge of the merits of con-
gresham, place so low as estimate
on the man we have been sending there
to represent us for so many years, it
is indeed time to have readjustment
and elect man who can and will
WELD, more potent influence in our
behalf This is not written with any

lie auction here May II, by order o1
Federal Judge Smith. In view of Mag
istrate Inman's ruling that the Whis-
key purchased by Mr.. Mauldin was moi
contraband, the hearing before Mag
istrate Stradley was largely perfume
tory. In redering his decision, the
magistrate said: "By agreement the
testimony taken by Magistrate Inman
yesterday in the claim and delivery
suit of o. K. Mauldin VS.. J. Perry
Poole, sheriff, should be used today
in this suit.
From the testimony and the in
depreciation given by the supreme
court in the cases of the State VS..
Bwokand, reported in volume 81,
South Carolina reports, page 442, and
the State vs.. Green, reported in ad-
vance sheets of August, 1911, page
113, my mind is clearly satisfied that
the defendant, O. K. Mauldin, has not
been guilty of violating the laws Of
the State, by either having in posses
zion or transporting spirituous Ii
quors for illegal purposes and the case
is therefore dismissed and the defend
ant honorably discharged
To Appeal Case.
Columbia, May 21.-Gov. Blease
stated today he had ordered B. M.
Shuman, attorney for Sheriff Poole,
of Greenville, to appeal the case of
Mauldin against Poole in which the
right of federal revenue officer to
sell liquor in dry territory is being
settled. The supreme court will be
called on to finally settle the issue.
The governor said he does not care
which way the case is decided, just so
he has the authority Of the highest
tribunal for his action regarding the
situation.
