this city should take 1t in hand to
see that all available locations within
the city are tied up in such manner
that these people could not get the
| use of them, or any of them, upon
that day, the question could easily be
solved; and that is the only way in
which the matter could now be
handled. Under the law, the city is
powerless to act further in the mat
ter.
The blame for this condition can
hardly be laid at anyone's door, for
the reason that the mistake is one
that almost any of us might have
made, and one that has been made in
many other cities within the past
two weeks? In Salem, a license was
refused upon the order of the Mayor.
In Cottage Grove the license was is

Unpatriotic Motive.
Il trust that the public will under
stand the matter as it really is. I,
with the rest of you, sincerely regret
to see this day of all days desecrated
by the existence in our midst of
purely for the dollars
and cents that can be made out of the
people gathered for the purpose of
paying tribute to the memory of our
departed heroes, friends, and rela-
tives. Personally, [ canont conceive
of a more unpatriotic motive, and
believe that the time has come when
laws should be enacted to prevent
further spread of this very evident |
ack of patriotism. But under the
aW as it now stands it is up to you, |
is patriotic citizens, to either prevent I
he possibility of the entertainment |
being given by tying up all available
ocations for that day, or by refusing
o patronize it,

AMERICAN ASSN
IS PROGRESSING
WORD COMES FROM. INDIANAPOLIS
TO THE EFFECT THAT FROM NOW
ON THE AMERICAN WILL CAST
OFF ITS swADDLING CLOTHES
AND MIX WITH THE BIG UNS.

Word comes from Indianapolis to the
effect that the American association
will cast off it's swaddIing clothes ana
trot along in genuine big league style
next season Is seen in a movement
started at the Milwaukee meeting for
a shorter playing schedule. Pres. Sol
Meyer of the Indians, ays a majority
of the A. A. men favor a less number
of games, and he is of the opinion
that 154 contests will be listed next
Season where 1853 games were played
last season. Both the National and
American leagues will play 154 games
next year. with the season scheduled
to open on April 10. Meyer is of the
opinion that the A. A. clubs will get
away about one day earlier thar the
big leagues.
Another movement being agitated
among the magnates is for a revision
of the A.. A. circuit. 1t has been
proposed that the circuit be redivided
with a change from an eastern and
western half to a southern and north
ern half. This would mean an eX-
change Of places between Toledo and
Kansas City. Toledo. Milwaukee, Min
neapolis and ST. Paul would compose
the northern hall, while Indianapolis,
kansas City, Louisville and
would make up the southern wing of
the circuit. r.,
It is figured that a revision of this
kind would give all the clubs an ad-
vantage in the matter of spring
weather, since Toledo, which gets the
rangement, is farther north than Kan
sas City. The proposed revision is said
to be favored by a majority of the
magnates. "

keenina Flowers Fresh.

When n has carried a bouquet of
flowers in the HAND, upon reaching
home they are generally found to be
wilted, says Farm and Ffreside.
To freshen them, dip them for an
instant in hot water and have ready
a bowl or vas containing cold water,
to which has been added a bit of
charcoal the size of a dime. If the
flowers are v~iolets. add half a tea
spoonful of sugar to the hot water in
which they are first dipped.
In winter a flower or flowers can
be kept fresh a very long time by
cutting off a small piece Of the stem
each morning and placing In hot
water, to which has been added a
pinch of salt. The water should not
be scalding hot when the flowers are
dipped. Roses can be kept on ice for
days.
