DON'T TOUCH IT.

If if were likely that the occasional protests against baseball diction would gather strength and form movement it would be deplOrable It has not only a rich argot but is a form of art.
 It must be remembered that there are numerous hungry devotees who seldom see a game. They are labor ing in the vineyard when other mul- titudes are shrieking in the grand stands. They take their baseball ty- geographically and pictorially. They are the most grateful beneficiaries of the baseball chronicle.
 For them the baseball writer con- trives a struggle. He helps them to visualize something even more eXcit- ing than what actually happens on the ball field, or at least something more exciting than what they would be able to see with their own ineX- pert eyes were they occasional spec tators. He shows them attack and defense, sharp, spirited, and flashing, or stubborn, resOlute, and determined.
 Their own eyes might serve them only to see certain businesslike per sons nonchalantly swinging bats, rub-

Nebraska. from DakOto City to South Sioux City was pushed forward by a quar- tet of the leading business men of the Nebraska suburb. At the special election which was held on the ques- ton of removal South Sioux City won by a large majority, but the Supreme Court of the state decided, upon an appeal from Dakota City, that the court house building erected by the real estate boomers of South Sioux City was a bribe offered to the voters of the county. The court. holding to this view. enjoined the re- moval of the county records from Dakota City. Work on the cOnstruc tion of the new court house. had proceeded to a point. where the plas- ter was about to be put upon tha walls and the doors to the vaults were about to be hung.
 Upon the announcement of the courts decision the work stopped short, and the building has remained in that condition until this day.

CIBBET FOR PANIC MAKERS

In his speech at a banquet given in New
York by the Southern Society, Presideut-elect
Wilson held up a warning finger to any man
who might deliberately start a panic in the
United States in order to show that Intended
legislative policies were wrong.
He declared that he had heard sinister pre-
dictions of what would follow if the Demo
cratic party put into effect changes in econo-
mic policy.
The President-elect first distinguished in
his speech between natural" and "un-
natural panics. He said that in many cases
panic had come naturally, because of a mental
disturbance of people with reference to loans
and money generally.
"But the machinery is in existence" he
said, ''by which the thing can bedeliberately
done. Frankly, l don't think there is any
man living who dare use the machinery for
that purpose. If he does, l promise him. not

tinued. But I speak as il I expected it. a. II
