DAILY IN LINE
 FOR HARVARD JOB
MENTIONED FOR CRIMSON FOOT. BALL COACH IF HAUGHTON
 DECLINES.

Cambridge, Mass. Nov. 26.-A de- termlned effort is to be made to get Coach Percy D. HaughtoI1 ,mo- recon sider his decision to lay aside his duties as coach of the Harvard foot ball team after five years spent in bringing the grtdiron virtues of the Crimson to the fore. MT. Haughton has the honor of being the only foot ball coach Harvard ever had who has won two victories over Yale.
 His. contract for three years. at $5,000 a year has run out. Another three-year contract at a salary in the neighborhood of $10.0OO.is the tempt ing bait held out to the astute ma jor of Crimson football history. In the event of MT. Haughton finally decid- ing to quit the game, the position will probably be rendered to Charley Daily. the former captain and. quarterback, and the man responsible for Brick 1ey's great form the past season.
 The Crimson may also reconsider dropping Dartmouth in football. Strong influences are at workg to ce- ment the warning parties. and as the Green following have admitted 5they

FOGEL HOPES TO PUT
 ONE OVER ON TOM LYNCH

Horace FogeE is expected to work a. flank movement when the Nation al League club owners convene to- day at the Waldorf-Astoria to inves- tigate the charges preferred by Pres fdent Lynch Foge1 is charged with having said that President Lynch and the umpires favored the Giants in the last pennant fight.
 Fogel is expected to serve President Lynch with a court order restraining the league from taking action. If Fogel can tie up the league until De- cem Der II he may be able to show that he owns a controlling interest in the Philadelphia club, and under these conditions the nnagnates would hesitate at drumming him out of base ball.
 As the matter stands to-day. five clubs are said to be ready to vote for Fogel's dismissal. He has only the Chicago and Brooklyn clubs with him. The Chicago and Brooklyn cluubs want Lynch deposed-
 F MT Lynch, however, is sure of re- election. Four votes will keep him in office.

K.LL CUBAN BASEBALL
 BY MANY VICTORIES
Connie Machss Athletics Have So1rred
 Island Fans on Game


 Connie Mack's Athletics have evil dently killed big league baseball in Cuba When the Cubans cancelled the dates with the team Umpire Rig cause of the horrible showing the Gu bans made with the Philadelphia club They won but one game in eight. The American League club made them look like a bunch of back lot kids Due to this awful showing the Cubans will not make any more dates for big league clubs to play
 when fine Athletics left for Cuba they were told they must play their best. put the best lineup they had i'm the field, and to win every game if they could
 The majority of the Cubans' victor fes in former years was due to the fact that the visiting clubs took the trip as lark. and thought the same when they went upon the ball field There was not any real ball played by the big league clubs. Before this trip the Philadelphia players were the Cuban teams who were just as god if not better, than those in the big leagues This peeved the Ath- letics, and they held a meeting at which 1t was decided to cut out the idea that the games were for fun. They decided to play the game as if they were going after the big end of the money in the worlds series
 The Athletics therefore, showed the speed and aggressiveness that mark ed them throughout the regular sea son. and the result was that there was nothing doing for the Cubans.
 There has never been any doubt in the minds of wise baseball men that if the big league clubs which go to Cuba to play baseball, attended strict ly to business the Cubans would win very few games The way the Ath- letics pounded the ball and played

ARMY WORM\A vANDAL.
Stops Trains and Damages Crops to
Extent OF Ss,9JJ,JG3 Last
Month

Washington, Aug. S.-More than SS,-
100000 damage was done to crops in
the South last month by the army
worm, according to unofficial estimates
of the department of agriculture.
Whether the seasons second brood
ef the irsects, already appearing in
South Carolina, Alabama, Georgia and
other States, will increase this loss is
of much concern to government ex-
perts. All the means at the depart
ment's disposal are being used to met
the emergency.
Reports to the department say che
army worms, at some places nall d fcct
deep on railroad tracks, have stopped
trains. This loss is plased at $1,000,-
600 in Georgia, while in Arkansas ~
per cent. of the corn and 10 per cent.
of cotton planted have been destroyed.
Losses also have been great in Ten
nessee, the Carolinas, Alabama, Missis-
sippi and Louisiana. In some of these,
particularly Louisiana, they exceed the
million mark. Corn, cotton, sugar
cane and rice crops from Louisiana to
the Atlantic have be5n affected.

State believes that Judge Jones is in
favor of social equality Just as nc
one but a fool will consider Judge
Jones as being in favor OF social equal
ity, so no one but a fool will regard
Governor Blease as the only represent,
ative of Tillmanism, or its best expo
nent. There are hundreds Of Tillman-
ties in the State who are better eX,
ponents of both than either Jones OF
Blease or Duncan.
81 do not see what that has to dc
with it anyway. The issue is, or ought
to be, integrity of purpose, patriotism
and ability, cleanness of character
high ideals, capacity to lead the peo-
pie and show them the best way to 60
courage to execute the laws unf1inch-
ingly and without fear or favor.
81 have been made ashamed, as ev-
cry South Carolinian must be at the
vulgarity, indecency and cowardice
that has been shown on the stump.
When my brother senators read about
the passing of the lie in every meet
ing in South Carolina, they with a
yelled sneer allude to it in surprise.
I have no word to say because l can
not. | resented the lie with blow on
the floor of the senate, and that has
been regarded here as an illustration
of the States spirit.
"The people of the State ought to
compel these WHO seek their votes for
high official positions to behave and
speak like gentlemen. The people can
do it and the people alone can do 1t.
One can speak boldly, aggressively and
truthfully, and not finch from stating
the facts and do it in parliamentary
language, and public opinion should
demand this and the people should en-
force it as rule. Else for the States
good name we had better cease hav-
ing these State campaigns at all, and
they are too valuable to give up be-
cause of the manner in which they
are being prosecuted 1t is disgrace
to have them conducted in the way
they have been this year. 1t would be
little sort of a calamity to have then,
cease altogether.
Zone word in conclusion, and the
most important word of all. There are
men in the State who believe it Judge
Jones is not elected that the State will
go to the dogs. There are others
equally honest and patriotic who be-
leve that if Blease is not elected the
Reform Government and principles it
stood for will be destroyed. Both are
wrong. The fabric Of our government
is not built On such a filnlsy founda-
ton, but it is of vital Importance -
and l say this with all solemnity Of
which l am capable-that the legisla-
ture to be elected this year is Of more
Importance than the filing of the gov
ernor's Office If we have brave, true
men, who are honest and not to be
brow-beaten or bribed, or seduced in
to betraying their constituents, no bad
governor can do US any irreparable in
jury, and without them no good COVER
nor can do much good. So implore
my fellow citizens to see to it that the
very best men in each county are sent
to the house of Representatives and
the senate Then whether Blease or
Jones is elected we will be safe.
