|oi their declarations that it ought to
be made crime for any senator or
Representative to accept employment
from 'fayor-seeking corporations or in
terests, the convention elected sew
eral public-service corporation attor-
neys, delegates to the national con-
vention.
Il know that three of the eight dele
gates at large are now and have been
for years the regularly retained attor-
neys of public service corporations,
and as If to make the whole proceed
|ings still more absurd, the platform
further declares that every senator
and representative must obey every
platform command and to its doctrines
thoroughly subscribe, except where the
senator or representative has received
a different instruction from his i'm
mediate constituents or has made a
different pledge to them.
But If attorneys who accept occa-
sional employment from these corpor-
atoms can not be trusted to legislate.
then certainly their regularly retained
attorneys can not be trusted to make
the platforms according to which SEN
ators and representatives must legis-
late. The democrats of Texas will
hardly tolerate the proposition that
their platform can be made by men
who can not be trusted to carry them
into effect
The above statement by Senator
Bailey is certainly a splendid example
of logical reasoning. His wonderful
analysis shows the platform, in its
present state, to be ridiculous.
| If representatives and senators
should not accept employment from
public service corporations, then sure
lily the platform should have gone fur
Their and declared that members of the
said corporations should not become
members of either branch of congress,
Further, if representatives must
obey to the letter all platform de-
mands, then the Houston platform
should have declared that no paid at
torney for public service corporations
should have voice in making the
platform.
The idea of compelling representa-
tives to obey the mandates of plat
form made by the paid attorneys OF
public service corporations is incon-
gruous, and its Inconsistency is so
glazing that it does not appeal to think
ing men.
The old idea of stopping up the log
at both ends is good one. If Senator
Blank can not accept fee from the
Steel trust, then Andrew Carnegie
should be barred from membership in
the senate.
/ If Senator Blank must obey the
platform demands, then dont let the
paid attorneys for the corporations
write the platform.

SENATOR BAILEY ON THE PLAT
FORM.

3 The Eagle reproduces below criti.
cism by Senator Bailey on two planks
OF the Houston platform, to wit:
Representatives accepting fees from
public service corporations and
obedience to platform demands We
wish to state, too, in the outset that
The Eagle heartily subscribes to the
first. and also to the latter in the main
After femarking that it is hardly APP
propriate for man to say much about
what occurred at his own funeral, Sen
ator Bailey says:
For instance, the platform declares
that 1t ought to be made a crime for
ID senator or representative to accept
employment from favor-seeking cor
porations and interests; but it refused
to include the stockholders and the
bondholders of those same favor-seek'
ing corporations and interests in the
rule to which it would subject their
employees.
Under law made in pursuance OF
that platform, If senator or repre-.
sentative should collect 500 claim
for the Steel corporation against the
hardware merchant of his home towr
he would be branded as crimina
and driven from the public service IL
his disgrace; and yet Andrew Car
negie, with more than $1,000 900
worth of the Steel corporation bonds
in his pocket. could sit in either house
of congress and vote on the meta
schedule of a tariff BILL
THAT platform would make it a
crime for one senator to collect a
promissory note for national bank
in his town and yet another senator
who owned all the national bank stock
he could buy, might sit in the senate
and vote on a bill to increase the
power or extend the privileges of ma
tional banks.
But the inconsistency which have
just pointed out, bad as it is, is ne,
the worst Of which the convention was
guilty in connection with this partic
ular plank in its platform. In the face

Bib seconds, beating the peerless Mel
Sheppard, hero of the 1908 Olympics in

bitterly contested, Sheppard and Ira
Davenport, the Chicago University star,
running a dead heat behind the flying
schoolboy.
Sheppard's pacing of the winner was
heady. He set off at killing speed

were successful and Braun had the

WALTER JANTzEN IS

Stovall Has High Opinion of

i Outhelder.

BOSTON, Mass, July 9.-"The best
outfelder on the club" That's Manager
Stovall's opinion of Walter Jantzen, the
youth who is doing duty in the right
meadow. Jantzen is playing better ball
than any outfielder on the team, and
cost less, being secured for the asking
and railroad fare from his home in Chi
cago to St. Louis. He was put in the
game right off the reel and has been
there ever since, and will continue to
stick, unless he takes an awful slump.
Jantzen started his professional career
with the Danville (Three-Eye League)
dub two years ago. That was the first
professional baseball he played. He
stayed there only short time, and then
went to Clinton, in the Northwestern
Association. This league broke up in
short time, though, and he was sup
posed to report to Chicago. He waited
a long time for a telegram to report
but none ever came, and the next thing
he knew he was back at his old stand
in Danville.
This all happened during the short
Nincennes in the Kitty League. where
he played a year and half He was
than sold to Cairo of the same organiza-
tion, where he remained until last fall

club this season. but failed to do so,

he played until the league broke up

America Certain to
Take First Honors

America is certain to take first
honors in the Swedish Olympics. On
the work of the United States team on
track and field so far America has
26 points. Sweden and Finland
are tied for second with 6 and
Great Britain comes next with
points scored. The fight for Sec
and place is certain to be well con-
tested, but the American athletes
so far outshine all competitors

they break records in their events.

that the Mackmen were not game in the

Cobb spiked Baker Since then 1t has
been proved that Baker is a clumsy
player and can't help running risks at
third base. on the other hand, Mclnnis
and Collins are always trying nasty
little tricks on the lines, and Thomas
works the same thing at the plate. But

protection from Ban Johnson against

them. Gandil said nothing when Eddie
Collins broke his nose in Philadelphia.

way. The Athletics will lose many

nothing definite can be learned. Wash

for the summer, and the promoters
should take warning. We're more in

they are on the level, than in any pair
of perspiring grapplers who can get to-
gether here and rake in the coin.
