ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
BASKET BALL
Penn wallops the Dutch.

They came, they saw,-but they ala
not conquer. AS has been the story
in most athletic contests with Cen
trail, they fell before their rivals,
Penn. In one of the most interesting
games OF the year Penn defeated
Central in the Penn gym" by the
score of 43 to 81 There was no use
to try; Penn had their goat and ran
away with the game in the second
half. In the first half Central put
up good game and led by the score
of II to 16. In this session Penn
missed many easy shots at the basket
or they would have been far ahead
of the Central team. In the second
half Penn played the Dutch off their
feet and scored 81 points to CentraPs
TO- True it was that Van Spankeran
played in the last half with an in.
jured leg, but he played against
Capt. Hilleary, who was handicapped
with a broken nose, so Central can
not lay their defeat to Heinie's in
jury. The feature of the game was
the basket shooting of Capt. Hilleafy
and Brown. These two last years
prep" stars secured more points
than the entire Central team. Matti-
son played his first game with the
college this season and was tower
of strength to the Penn aggregation.
He held his man to two baskets and
secured three himself. Williams and
Lichtenheld covered the floor nicely
and many of the Penn baskets were
due to their good passing.
The game was attended by large
crowd of students and every one was
after Central's goat. This game
sends PENIS stock up considerably,
as Central has defeated some good
teams this season.

Newton 53-Oskaloosa IA.

OskalCosa High school received a
severe jolt at the hands of Newton
High school last night when the latter
won the basket ball game by the large
score of SO to IA. At no time in the
game did the Oskaloosa boys have
look in, but they fought until the last
whistle Newton took advantage Of
their long narrow floor and had the
ball in their territory most OF the
game. 1t was impossible for the To-
Gals to team the ball or pass it over
their guards. Many times the Oska
loosa men would make long pass
only to have it hit the low ceiling
and bounce in a Newton mans hands.
The first half was rather a walk-away
for Newton, the score at the end be.
ing "a to 2, the only points made for
Oskaloosa were two foul goals by
Russell. In the second half Oskaloosa
played much better ball but Newton
scored 20 to Oskaloosa's IL. Raymond
played the best for Newton, securing
10 field and 5 fouls. Although none
of the Oskaloosa men played star ball,
they never gave up and were fighting
all the time to overcome the disad-
vantage of the Newton floor.

UP TO Mr.. ROOSEVELT
SOME QUESTIONS VOTERS WOULD
LIKE TO HAVE ANSWERED.
People Are Naturally Interested In the
Matter Of Campaign Contributions /
fer the ~Thlrd Term
candldats.S

Now that Mr.. Roosevelt ID scream
ing about Mr.. Taft's surrender to the
interests, Mr.. Taft is charging that
Mr. Roosevelt received corporation fao
vors and returns them in protection
and Mr.. Perkins is ertlessly confess
ing that he contributed to the cam
paiKn funds OF both Mr.. Taft and Me-
Roosevelt perhaps We can get inter-
esting information we have long
sought.
We know that Mr.. Perkins gave the
Roosevelt fund $4,000 Of insurance
money and that two other insurance
companies contributed $4,000 each.
We know from Mr.. Perkins testimony
that the Steel trust contributed to the
fund Of 1904.
We know that Mr.. Hartman raised
s260,OO0 for use In New York. We
know that Standard OIL sent 100000,
which Mr.. Roosevelt says he sent back.
Mr. Armour boasted that the beef
trust contributed to Mr.. RooSevelt's
fund. We know that Mr.. Roosevelt
checked the prosecution OF the har-
vester trust and gave the friendly
i Morgan interests immunity in absorb
ing the Tennessee Coal and Iron
company. But this information is
fragmentary. II Mr.. Roosevelt really
is willing to have the whole truth
known he should tell the country pre-
cisely what trusts contributed to his
campaign fund and how much each
one contributed; he should answer.
or get Mr.. Cortelyou to answer, these
frequently repeated but so far unan-
swered questions Of the PostDis-
patch:
/. How much has the Beef trust con-
tributed to Mr.. Cortelyoui

stepping and discussion this table was
expurgated and published in its emas-

that 1t was not its duty to answer the
question; congress could MAKE Ics own

for refusing to publish the table show
ing whether the tariff had been raised
or lowered was that the market fiuctu-

only a bubble, because the respective
tariff acts were so arranged that the
increase In duty on sliding scale kept
pace with the price fluctuations.
The tariff board chose to print tables
