THE VICE PRESIDENT.
Mr.. sherman Does Well I'm that I'M
pOrtant ONCE.

From the Nashville Democrat.
Vice President Sherman has indicated
his desire to retire from public life at the
end of his term of office. As he could
hardly expect the unusual distinction Of
being placed again on the Republican ma
tionaI ticket in the event of President
Taft's denomination, the retirement of
the genial Vice President would seem to
be the natural order. There has been
some little talk OF putting him forward
as a candidate for governor in New
York. but il has not been strong enough
to cause him 70 forego his announced
determination 10 avail himself Of the
more unhsmpered enjoyments Of private
hfe. Mr.. Sherman has made a very good
Vice President. He has presided over
the Senate with suitable dignity, and he
has figured prominently on some social
and political occasions. He is REGARDED
as n slkillful politician, but not Of con-
spicuous national force.

ALEXANDER stewart once fNepuDiSdn

men. also business men, long ago decided
that washington was the ideal winter

As Mclean and Clark are ardent Repub-

forts sof Whitacre to make their stay
pleasant. In spite of the Whitacre ac-
tivity in behalf of constituents. he is not
SO eager for a denomination as others

The most promising young
player in the minor leagues, If
not the very best outside of the
majors, Is Ralph Capron of the
Milwaukee club.
Capron is doing the things In
the American association that
makes Ty Cobb the most talked
about player in the world. He is
the best bet that has graduated
from college TO baseball since Ed
die Collons left Columbia-and
the one Connie Mack missed.

the Brewer fans. We've got
Capron and cant see this fellow
Cobb at all -
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1912-06-27

And you can't blame them, at
that, for Capron has done enough
to establish line of credit, even
In Milwaukee.
1t was Capron who ran the full
length of the football field in the
Minnesota Wisconsin game last
fall, scoring touchdown for the
Minnies and spread-eagling the
Wisconsin team. Stepping a hun
dred yards in 10 2-5 in football
toys never bothered the light
heeled youngster, who is bound to
shine as rival to Ty Cobb and
Joe Jackson.
Capron is the biggest thing
Milwaukee ever knew in a base
ball way. He is hitting over 500
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1912-06-27

and running the bases SO fast the
infielders are dizzy trying to
watch him. iif5ll
In his first game Capron won
a home in Milwaukee. The bases
were filled when he went to bat
and he poled out an ordinary,
everyday two base hit. He went
to third ON it and the only reason
he didn't score was the men ahead
of him blocked the base line.
His next effort was a pop FLY
just clear of the infield and when
the outfielder blinked iCapron
went to second. The third time
he beat a bunt. aevf
Capron has the fans SO onutty
about him that they stay II away
from the zoo. for fear of exciting
the squirrels. He thinks nothing
of going from first to third on an
infield out or of scoring from Sec
ond on the same play. Sometimes
he scores from second on force
out at the middle station.
And Capron is a recruit! He IL
