Baseball Notes

A new rule on free agents was
adopted by the National Commission
in Cincinnati yesterday. The new
amendment Is as follows: A free agent
] who signs a contract with a national
agreement club and is transferred
without his consent to another club, or
is released without a trial, shall be de-
clared a free agent, If the club to
which he is released doe not assume
the salary his original contract calls
for.
Player Charles Deal complained to
the board that while a free agent he
signed with the Phillies at a stipulated
salary for the coming season. On re-
porting March 9 he was informed that
he had peer released to the Lancaster
Tri-Staters at a salary of so per cent.
less than he had signed for. The COM
mission annuled the release to the
Lancaster Club and restored Deal as a
free agent.
Catcher Crist, former backstop of the
Jersey City Internationals, has beer
signed by Manager Calhoun, of the
Elmira New York State League Club.
The major league teams are playing
fewer games in the South h a in any
season previously. Usually during the
middle of March the big fellows are
going against minor league teams, but
the experience Of the managers APP
parently has been that the games are
too hard for the majors, who want
practise more han excitement and
competition.
It looks as though Krug, of the Bos-
ton Americans. will dish Charley Wag-
ner, the former Bengal, out of the
shortstop position. Krug Is doing so
wonderfully that Wagner is not ever
being given a chance to play.
1t is reported hat Al Bridwell, OF
the Boston Nationals, will not play
much ball, maybe none, this season.
AL has not reported at the Augusta
camp as yet.
Charley Smith, last year with the
Tigers. twirled the first five innings
for the Cubs against the Birmingham,
Ala. team yesterday and did well.
Smith Is going great on the Windy
City teams training trip this veal and
should make good during the cham
pionship season.

After losing four games in four
days, Cubs managed to trim
Brooklyn twice in four hours.
Nap Rucker, usually jinx for
the West Siders, had nothing
dazzling in his left arm.
Evers and Schultz found him
particularly soft, one of Wild
fires three hits being triple. The
Trojan nicked trio of singles.
Evers was the batting star of
the day, bingling five times out
of six trips to the chopPing block.
Lefty Leifeld allowed ten blows
in the first game, but he was a
m1Ser with hits when runs
threatened.
Curtis, ex-Cub, Knetzer and
Kent all took part on the slab for
Brooklyn in second fight. Twelve
hits were secured off their COM
bined deliveries.
Reulbach pitched in the same
vein as did Leiheld, allowing the
Dodgers to hit freely when the
paths were not clogged.
Heinie Zimmerman was out of
the game with an liberated tooth.
Jerry Downs subbed for him. Be

The Public and
Railway Accidents

That the railroads of the coun-
try expect to put up to the pub
lie part of the responsibility for
accidents was indicated yesterday
when the Pennsylvania Railroad is
sued a statement calling attention
to the fatalities on its road last
year from trespassing.
Trespassers to the number of
52I-more than one day-lost
their lives last year on the Penn
sylvania Railroad, while violating
the law. Many trespassers are mis-
chief makers, according to the rail
road. They smash signal and
switch lamps, place distractions on
the tracks and commit many other
acts which endanger the lives of
railway employees and the travelling
public.
Last year the Pennsylvania Rail.
road Police Department spent more
than 100000 in its war against
trespassing, but it is impossible fol
the Company's police satisfactorily
to cope with the situation, accord

statement continued: "Trespassins

Prohibition Fa.ty's Appeal
{ lPNbNshed BY reqNestl

(PUb}shed by requeSD
There are many reasons why the
Prohibition ticket should be victor
ious at the coming national election.
The greatest Of all reasons is that
we are the only party which, if
elected to power will prohibit the
manufacture of liquor by national
legislation i'll every inch of terri
tory under the American flag. The
solution of the liquor problem will
also solve many other problems i'll
American government. 1t will
solve the problem of good govern
ment for our great cities, which
are now ruled by the saloon vote.
1t will also solve the problem of
the high cost of living. There are
nearly one million men engaged III
making, distributing and selling
liquor. These, together with their
families, make an army of nearly
five millions of people who produce
no wealth, but are in the class of
consumers only. AS a result of
this traffic we have those who are
IN Jails, penitentiaries. insane hos
pitfalls, poor houses and other places
who are sent there because of the
liquor traffi, together with officers
and attendants, which makes an
other army Of more than five mil.
hons of people. Thus we have
more than ten millions of people il
this country who, as a result of the
liquor traffic, produce neither food
clothing or shelter, the necessaries
of life. More than one hundred
and six millions (106,OO0.OOO) OF
Of bushels of grain are destroyed
each year in the making Of intoxi
eating liquors. If this grain coulc
be turned into food and these tel

practicable to give the pupils III the
country schools start III that al-
rection-to set them thinking about
their own vocation, and arouse
spirit of inquiry that will be last

The system Of education III use
IN the public schools is too often
distinctly out Of sympathy with the
farmers life; it tends to stimulate
a desire on the part Of the young
to get away from the farm. IL
should not attempt to eXalt the
child opinion of agriculture by
means of glittering generalltles on
the delights of country life, which
the child knows all about, but
should. by grounding him IN the
foundation principles of agrlcul-
ture. give him the love for 1t which
always comes with intelligent and
scientific interest.
The science Of farming really IN
cludes all other sciences. 1t is a
noble occupation, worthy the at
tention of any man of educatnon
. The chemist. interested i'll explor'
ing the mysteries of matter, loves
his profession; he can hardly get
too much of it. Thus it is will

ducers. it would solve the problem
of the high cost of living.
There is but one solution OF these
problems and that is the election to
power of the Prohibition Party,
which will administer the govern
ment and interpret the Constitu-
ton and laws from the standpoint
of making the manufacture and
selling of liquor crime and not a
business. No relief can come to
the people by the election OF any
one Of the other parties now asking
for the suffrages of our people.

THE ISSUE OF THE CAMPAIGN

Emerson uas certainly right
WheR he said, "an Institution IS but
the leagthcned shadow Of one
man" As striking present day
proof one has only to think Of Va
lard SauIsbury and Delaware DEM
Ocidcy.
A DEMOCRATIC ADMINS
TRATION WILL MEAN THE
LENGTHENED SHADOW OF
WILLARD SALISBURY.
The Democratic Party in Della
ware and Willard Salisbury are
Synonymous terms. Past political
history and the present campaign
prove that to turn the State
over to Democratic administration
means to put our local government
under the control of Willard Sauls-
bury.
This is not meant as an insult
to that great body Of Democrats
who do not approve Of the aristo-
cratic insolence Of Mr.. salisbury.
He has by an arrogant manipula-
ton, so named the ticket in this
campaign that it is only reasonable
TO predict the success of the party
would bring a return Of Salisbury
and the Democratic regime of a
few years ago. Democratic orators
and candidates have either clouded
or begged the issue. Even though
perhaps not i'll sympathy with Mr..
Salisbury, they dare not brook his
enmity by so declaring themselves.
A prominent eX-member of the
General Assembly who has cast his
vote for Mr.. Salisbury said recent
ly-that sooner than run the risk
of having a Democrat go to the
Legislature who openly opposed
him, Mr.. Salisbury would aid in
his defeat-fOr in order to main
tain his leadership, he must have a
semblance of unanimous support.
Although several candidates for the
Legislature have privately express
ed their opposition to the dictator
ial methods used by Mr.. Salisbury,
not one Of them has said publicly
that he would not vote for him as
United States Senator.
Then, considering the history of
the Democratic party in Delaware
and realizing that the same head
that was i'll control then, is the mas,
ter feature in this campaign. the
issue today is drawn very definite
ly. to voters in Delaware.
Whatever views one may hold OF
the National questions, this is the
one supreme issue before us here il
this State. 1t is something. too
that presents responsibility tC
every individual voter No matter
how humble his station. the vote OF
one man may be the deciding fac
tor in the next Legislature which
might mean a Republican or vii
lard Salisbury as our mkt repre-
sentative in the [. $. Senate.
No voter should endanger hi:
party or his State by giving way t,
the plea for a complimentary vote
to a Democratic candidate.
Views OH National questions OF
criticism of party management can
not warrant aid, directly or indi
rctly, to the Democratic party.
To our mind the serious question
before Delaware voters is: Whethe1
or not we shall have Democrat,
control i'll this State or Saulsbur,
control-they are synonymous.

has made such hit with the people
since he has been in this city as the

The little fellow, game TO the core,
