Paul Cobb to Be
With the Lincoln
Club This Season

Now that Paul Cobb has gone into
camp. lining up the Lincoln Antelopes
for the pennant chase, II is as well to
chronicle the fact that Paul's quest Of
a ball club TO buy his release was doomed
to fail even before he started.
There is no denying the fact that
Cobb's services would be welcomed In
other towns but It is certain that no
club in organized ball would dare TO
enter into negotiations Of the sort Paul
appears to have MAPPED out. The rules
laid down by the National commission.
expressly forbid a decker between a
player and a ball club unless the team
which holds title has given consent.
The rule was adopted to shut off man
ayers or club owners pursuing the trick
scheme Of working on player and set
ting him dissatisfied. The fine Is 500.
No club would have dared to wire
direct to Paul without first securing the
consent OF President Don Despair.
II appears that Ty Cobb conducted ne
gotiations for the purchase OF Paul by
club in the international league and
In this the Detroit star unthinkingiy
committed an infraction OF the rules
Ty laid himself liable TO a fine for his
part in the affair. but the Lincoln man
agement Is content with haying Paa
back in the fold and will not carry tbs
matter further.

Day Of Reckoning viii Come.

Surely there must be a day of reck-
oning coming for the Anthracite Coal
trust, and 1t is astonishing that men
so intelligent as President Baer and
his colleagues do not seem to see that
they are fastening this day by their
exactions from the public in forcing
up the price of coal at this time. The
addition Of a quarter of a dollar to
the price Of anthracite Is not such q
triiing matter that 1t will go unresent-
ed. Who would have thought a few
years ago that the Standard Oil COM
pany, the American Tobacco company
and other great corporations would
ever be brought to terms and forced
to dissolve or change their methods?
Some day a way will be found by eth
er state or federal authority to bring
the anthracite combination to its
knees, and for such drastic action It
may thank the public sentiment
aroused by the imposition of not far
from $780, 00. 900 as an extra tax to
make up for the increased wages,
which cannot aggregate over $1,000
900 or $4,000, 900 at the most, given to
the miners under pressure.

RIGHT MAN FOR THE PLACE
Surely No One More Fitting Than
George w. Perkins to Be Treasur-
err Of Roosevelt Party.

1t Is eminently proper that George
W. Perkins should be named as treas
urer of the Bull Moose party. AS a.
friend of the plain people Mr.. Perkins
has succeeded In amassing a huge for
tune. Incidentally, and only inciden-
tally, he profited quite handsomely in
the division of the $50, 0O0, 900 which
was the financial result of the forma-
ton of the steel trust.
This gigantic monopoly has nothing
to hope for in the election of Presi-
dent Taft, because it was under Mr..
Taft's administration that suit was
instituted against 1t. Likewise MI.
Wilson's election would be disastrous.
But Mr.. Roosevelt declined. while
president, to prosecute the steel trust,
and he allowed the trust to gather in
its great southern rival, the Tonnes
see Coal and Iron company. More
than this, during his eve years oc-
cupation of the White House, Mr.
Roosevelt took no action which looked
toward a genuine revision of the
tariff.
No wonder that Mr.. Perkins is to
be the treasurer of the new party. He
has already contributed handsomely,
and the barrel is still open. 1t is,
however, an imposition upon human
credulity to believe that his generos-
ity has no selfish end In view.

Publicity for Perkins.

Why should George W. Perkins con-
tribute $4,000 to help Mr.. Roosevelt
carry the Republican primaries in
New York city?
Is 1t because Mr.. Perkins Is an ar
dent believer in the initiative and
referendum?
Is 1t because his confidence in a
on the recall of judicial decisions?
Is 1t because his confidence in a
pure democracy" is such that he is
willing to make any financial sacri-
fee in order that the nation may
achieve this goal?
Is 1t because he believes that Theo-
dore Roosevelt is the only statesman
who is wise enough and patriotic
enough to be president?
Or is 1t because Mr.. Perkins finds
in MI. Roosevelt the most ~serviceable
weapon for destroying the Sherman
antitrust law?
Mr.. Perkins is chairman Of the
finance committee of the Harvester
trust. He is a director Of the Steel
trust. He is a director Of the Stand
ard Oil bank. He was formerly a
partner of J. P. Morgan G. Co. Mr..
Perkins helped collect the life insur-
nee money for the Roosevelt cam
paign fund in 1904, and he Is a very

If he gave $15, 900 to the Roosevelt
campaign fund in New York, how
much has he given to the Roosevelt
campaign fund in other states. and
why?--New York World.

IN A FALSE POSITION
TWO STATEMENTS BY ScHWAB
SEEM CONTRADICTORY.
Declares Steel Tariff Must Not Be
Lowered, and Talks Of Victory In
Market Over His European
Competitors.

When Charles nj. Schwab returned
from a trip to Italy he Immediately
gave out an interview saying that the
tariff on steel cannot be materially
lowered without Gripping the indus
try.
Mr.. Schwab is president Of the
Bethlehem Steel corporation and
chairman of the board. His company
has issued SIS, 000, 900 in common
stock and a like amount of preferred
stock. The common stock has never
paid a dividend and is selling at about
38. The preferred is a seven per cent.
stock which never paid even per cent.
and has not paid anything since 1908.
1t sells around ".
MI. Schwab's company is one of the
many which Capitalized the econo-
mics of consolidation" that is to say
issued watered stock during the era
Of trust promotion. The $15,000,000
Of common stock Is mostly represent
alive Of that kind of capitalization.
and If he means that tariff revision
will cripple the iron industry by dis
~couraging that kind of financing he
is perfectly right The American peo-
pie are not going to revise the tariff
with a view Of furthering the scheme
Of high finance or to help anyone pay
dividends on water.
But there is a further fact in Mr..
sSchwab's4t interview that is highly
Illuminating. He said he had just re-
turned from Italy, where his company
has closed a contract to supply armor
plate for the Italian navy. Mr..
Schwab's company has no tariff pro-
lection In Italy against such great
steel-producing countries as England,
France, Germany and Belgium, but he
can sell steel against them in that
country because he offers the Italians
good steel at fair prices.
If he can sell steel without tariff
protection in Italy he can do It at
home.

9 DROWNED IN HUNT FOR MAN
Wife, Six Children and Others Caught
in Ravine-Husband Safe
In Barn.

Jacobs Creek, Pa.-Nine persons
were drowned in a cloudburst in
Barren Run, near here. The dead
are Mrs. John Raymond, her six chill
dren, her brother, Mike Rovinsky, and
her mother.
During the storm Raymond went
from his house to the barn, in a ravine
near Barren Run. He did not return
and, after waiting two hours, the wife,
her children and the other members
of the family became frightened and
went in search of him. AS they
reached the ravine a wall of water
swept down and carried them away.
Raymond was safe in the barn and
escaped. The body Of the brother
soon was recovered.
