as to the effect of the republican victory
and the attitude of the progressive lead
ers regarding the national election in
November All of the progressive lead
ers were actively identified with the re-
publican party in yesterdays election. A
number of republican leaders have an
nounced their intention to go on the
stump for Col. Roosevelt for President
and in opposition to President Taft for
reelection.
Democrats Put on Defensive.
The democrats went into the state
struggle this fall on the defensive having
won control of the state government in
the election of 1910. They based their
campaign almost wholly on national is
sues. although defending their course in
the state administration.
The republicans used state issues entire
ly as the weapons of attack, and refused
to be drawn into any discussion of ma
tional affairs. The progressive element
of the republicans was in full control of
party machinery. but with the approval
of Col. Roosevelt a split was postponed
until after the struggle. Many of the
leading state speakers in the campaign
announced last night that they We're no
longer in the republican ranks. but would
take the stump Immediately for Col.
Roosevelt for President.
Republican Vote Increased.
The republican organization was ale
TO bring out a greater vote for Haines in
yesterdays contest than was given for
Fernald, the party candidate who was de-
feated two years ago, while the demo-
cratic vote for Plasted showed falling
off from that of 1910.

STAIGER GOES
TO CINCINNATI
Director in Ball Company
Company Will Try to
Get Rehearing. ,
Expects to Make Good Show
ing Before the
Commission.

Armed with afhdavits, kilograms,
correspondence and other evidence
with which he hopes to save baseball
for the city, Edward Staiger, drec-
,or of the Marion Baseball company,
present the case of the Marion club
before the National Baseball commits
sion in session i'm that city.
Last week, It will be remembered,
The national commission sustained the
decision of the national board i'm which
twelve players under Marion contracts
were declared free agents. MIR.
Staiger hopes TO persuade the commls-
sion to reconsider the case as this has
been the first time the directors have
had an opportunity to present their
side. Also. the Marion directors had
Lton notified indirectly that the case
would be heard before the commission
today.
IT, Mr. Staiger is able to secure u
hearing before the commission, there
ls little doubt that the high court Of
baseball win reverse the decision OF
the national board as the evidence COLI
lected by the local directors is bound
&c add weight to their side of the
cese.
However mbany important questions
are TO come before the commission to-
day and it is barely possible that that
btdy will ignore Marion's appeal. The
case which is Of great local import
.ance, may not be given much time
by the men higher up in baseball
Fans are anxiously awaiting the re-
suit of Mr.. Staiger's appearance be-
fore the commission as it means life
cr death for oreanlzed baseball in
Marion for some time.
