Dave; A claims that Nap Lajoie
holds the worlds record for the num-
Der of triples made In season. B
bets that Chief Wilson Of the Pirates
holds the honor. Who wins? GAG.
Laioie holds the record, having made
l3 triples in 1903. Wilson has poled SO
triples so far this season, which is
his best mark.
"A ball player is fool to pay any
attention to what is said to him on
the field. Bill Sweeney.

Lajoie is Among the Real Second Base
Kings" Perchance, also it might be
admitted that 'Ty Cobb is One of Our
Best Little Batsmen" and walter
Johnson is One Of the Cleverest OF
Washington's Pitchers"
Claude Derrick isn't playing with
Baltimore at present. He is suffering

Minor league stars have come high
this year, but they had to have them.
There have been no record sales, but
the White Sox gave $4,000 for Catcher
Ray Schalk, of Milwaukee, and have
agreed to pay the same amount for
Liebold and Chappelle of the same

for Corridor and Cleveland gave up
$4,000 for Chapman (stage money,
maybe)

PARCELS POST COMING

Postal deficits in England and in
Canada are unknown, while in the
United States they have been contin-
uOus, even under the buSinesS-like and
economical administration of the de-
partment by the present able post
master general. In the meantime, the
express companies and the Wall
street interests controlling them fat
ten by the opening of enormous an
nual "melons,' which in any one year
would have more than wiped out the
postal deficit in that year, and left a
handsome margin Of profit to the
credit of the post office department.
AS long a sour government supinely
permits express companies to share
this business, up to the maximum
prescribed by congress, with it, just
so long shall we witness spasm odic
postal retrenchments, and the esta b.
lishment of a rural parcels post, with
out the assertion of the governments
legitimate monopoly, will tend only
toward increasing the cost of opera
ton out of all proportion to the re-
turns, and even raising the rates for
the postal transmission of advertising
sections of magazines will not in any
way overcome, but rather augment
it.
Our legislative and administrative
doctors should cease treating symp-
toms and display more zeal in remov-
ing causes.
It therefore, follows that the first
logical step to take in the interest of
the establishment of comprehensive
parcels post system in this country, is
for the government to assert in it's
legitimate monopoly in the transmits
sion Of all packets or packages up to
the present four-pound limit. After
this is accomplished, then through
the postal savings bank or otherwise,
enough money can be had at a very
low rate of interest for it's enlarge
| ment up to the standard maintained
by all progressive and enlightened
European countries.
However, the handwriting on the
WALL '"The people versus express &C.
topi-result parcels post is now
clearly discernible, for we have wit
messed but recently the passage from
the upper branch of congress to pri-
vate life of most of the representa-
tives of privilege, and have enlisted in
our cause such sterling and militant
representatives of the people as La
Toilette, Bristow, Poindexter, Ken
yon, Gore, Owen, O'Gorman, Will
liams, Borah, Clapp and Gronna, ETC.,
and with bills defining the word
packet now in the legislative mill,
introduced by Senator Kenyon, Rep
resentatives Howard of Georgia and
Cox of Indiana, the combat will be
short and decisive.

THE HOUSE BY THE
SIDE OF THE ROAD

There are the hermit souls that live
Withdrawn
In the peace of their self-content:
apart
In a billowless firmament;
There are pioneer souls that blaze
their paths
Where highways never ran:
But let me live by the side of the
road,
And be a friend to man.
Let me live in house by the side
of the road,
Where the race of men so BY
The men who are good and the men
who are bad,
AS good and as bad as I.
I would not sit in the scorner's seat,
Or hurl the cynic's ban.
Let me live in house by the side of
the road,
And be a friend to man.
I see from my house by the side of
the road,
BY the side of the highway of
life, .u
The men who press with the ardor of
hope,
The men who are faint with the
strife.
But turn not away from their smiles
nor their tears
Both parts of an infinite plan
Let me live in my house by the side
of the road.
And be a friend to man.
I know there are brook gladened
meadows ahead,
And mountains of wearisome
height:
That the road passes on through the
long afternoon.
And stretches away to the night.
But still I rejoice when the travel
ers rejoice,
And weep with the strangers that
moan,
Nor live in my house by the side of
the road
Like a man who dwells alone.
Let me live in house by the side of
the road,
Where the race of men go by
They are good, they are bad, they are
weak, they are strong,
Wise, foolish-so am I.
Then why should I sit on the scorn-
er's seat,
Or hurl the cynic's ban?
Let me live in my house by the side
of the road, Il
And be a friend to man.

JUDGING TRADES UNIONISM
f. BY the Rev. Charles Sickle

Nothing is ever gained by mere
denunciation. This applies to trades
unionism as it does to everything
else. The time has come for a sane
study Of what Carlyle has called the
universal vital problem of the, world
Ordinarily trades unionism is
judged by a newspaper story which
had it's birth in an insignificant
strike event, but which was nurtured
by the irresponsible reporter of II
sensational newspaper. Sometimes
the story of tyranny or laWlessness
practiced, by trades unions is true,
but this lawlessness is not an essen
tlal part Of trades unionisn, any more
than hazing is an essential part of
the college curriculum, or the killing
or manning for life of the football
player is an essential part of a COL
lege education.
Trades unionism must be judged
not SO much by it's mis- deeds as by
it's ideals. We demand the same
thing for the church and every other
institution. You need not go very far
back into history of practically every
great movement to find duplicated
nearly everything that we are today
denouncing in the trades union.
These all have passed through their
period of hysteria. The older unions
are proverbially conservative, and
men sometimes say that if all trades
unions were of their type. no one
would object to them. But they were
not always so. Most of them were at
one time as radical as the newer
unions. The time will come when the
young giants among trades unions
Of our country will use their strength
to better purpose.
Judging the value of trades union
ism by the general direction which
it is going, it must be given the Gre
dit Of bringing it's adherents into the
haven of better physical, social and
| moral conditions. And that must be
the final test
