OPPOSE TIGERS

The National Model License league
today made public an open letter tt
Mrs. T. Z. Patterson, president of the
Georgia w c. T. e., protesting against
what 1t declares is an unfounded accu-
sation The letter is written by T. M
Gilmore, president of the league. and
declares that the league is not in favor
of blind tigers in Georgia. 1t asserts
that if dry territory were made really
dry the people would not stand fol
prohibition
Here's Gimore's letter to Mrs. Pat
terson
In a. clipping credited to Ne
braska newspaper | find the fol-
lowing statement for which you are
made sponsor:
The Model License league has
said If we can hold near-beer
saloon in Georgia. as a blind to sell
everything else, until we can bring
the drunkards up to approximate
ly what they were under the license
system, and then go before the
Georgia legislature backed by a
million dollars, nothing in the world
can defeat us.
Very respectfully l beg to pro-
test against this mfsreprese ntatfon.
Neither the Model License league
ESQ called) nor the National Model
License league Gas Incorporated
ever made any such statement. This
league exists solely for the purpose
of bringing about the passage of
laws that will put the sale of liquor
on as high a plane as is the sale of
liquor in Continental Europe
Oppose Llncensed Dives.
We oppose licensed dives and we
oppose blind tigers. The dive makes
votes for prohibition and the blind
tiger helps to keep prohibition ter
ritory from discarding prohibition.
1t is well known that If liquor is
sold freely in dry territory there
will be a disposition on the part of
the people to let matters drift.
Whereas, If dry territory should be
made really dry" then the people
would not stand for prohibition.
| have challenged the Anti Sa-
loon league and the Prohibition
party to advocating a law putting
penalty and impr sonment on the
purchase, possession and use of
liquor in dry territory and the an
sWer Of these liquor haters is that
such Il law would break down the
whole prohibition movement
If the liquor business is half as
bad as the prohibtonists say it is.
1t IS wholly unnecessary for its foes
to indulge in Misrepresentation

~ consider Olaf Henricksen
the hero of the final battle
in the worlds series. 1t was his
two base drive in the seventh in

and put us in the game at time
when we were finding the great
MathewSon a hard nut to crack.
Next. give credit to Speaker.
whose line drive to right in the
tenth scored Engle with the second
tleing run and put Yerkes on third.
Speaker took second on the throws
in, and this placed us in the proper
position to win If We were ever to
do so. There was only one out.
Hooper having retired after a hard
drive to Snodgrass Engle. batting
for Wood. started the inning by
getting two bases when Snodgrass
muffed his fly. 1t was up to Duffy
Lewis. Matty would not give him
a good one, and he walked, filing
the bases. That put it up to Gard
y
occasion, as | know he would be.
His long fly to DevOre enabled
Yerkes to score the winning run
and the greatest worlds series in
history ended then and there, with
Red SoX on top.
Henriksen Turned Tide.
Henriksen's performance was
the thing that turned tbe tide. We
had been having difficulty in con-
Meeting with the wonderful pitch
ing of Mathewson. Bedient was
pitching great ball too, but that
one run to the Great of the Giants
looked bigger and bigger as the
game wore on ana we could not get
man across the plate
The situation in the seventh was
this; When Stahl reached second
he signalled for Joe Wood to warm
up. This meant pinch hitter was
going to bat for Bedent. 1t was
great judgment on StahIs part. and
he made his move at exactly the
right time Wood began warming
up as Cady stepped to the plate.
He was unfortunate and was only
able 70 put up pop fly for Fetch
er. This made two out with Stahl
still on second and Wagner on first.
Stahl yelled for HenIiksen to
bat for Bedient. The little fellow
was evidently not expecting his
good luck for it was several sec
onds before NJ took his place at the
pIate,

nearer the first bag. Meyers should
have kept away, but he chas ed
down the line till Merkle, already
preparing to take it. backed away
through fear Of collision. The
sphere fell to the ground, and with
it the Giants chances.
Speaker Finally Delivers.
Taking advantage OF the unex-
pected life, Speaker drove long
single to left center and Engle tai
lied the tying run, while Speaker
and Yerkes both moved up on the
throw to the plate. Lewis drew a
pa SIS. filling the bases, and Gard
ner, who had been hitting all the
afternoon 10 center field. lifted a
fly to Josh Devore. With the put
out went the Giants hopes, for
Yerkes easily came home on the
sacrifice as "Matty," with quivering
lips, walked in from the rubber and
joined the other members OF a de-
feated team.
Bedient and Wood had pitched

No discredit attaches to Big

takes Of the day.
