leyan baseball squad worked out this
afternoon from 3 to 5. Twer<--tve
men reported for the first call OF prac.

good ones. The new material is all
promising. and enough of last years
team is returned to insure a strong
nucleus. and winner is expected.
Batting practice was the big feature
OF the afternoon, and on account of
the condition OF the field no work OF
the diamond was attempted. Trail,
Stansbury, Riply and McWhorter
pitched to the batters for a solid hour.
and all the old ones seem to still have
their prowess with the stick, and the
new ones are certainly showing up IN
fine shape. No benders were per.
mitted. and only few fast ones. The
season Is too young for the pitchers
TO let out, and II will be the middle
OF the coming week before anything
like hard work is begun. After the
practice two laps were taken around
the track, and this work will be part
of'the program every day till the sea
son opens. In addition to the pitchers
named. the most promising men on the
field this afternoon We're: Toothman,
Reeder, Hennen, Barnes. Post. Shu.
maker. Withers, Stansbury, Morrison,

ROOSEVELT AND TAFT.

New York Independent: We think
the Republican party ought to nomi-
nate Mr.. Tart for a second term. We
regret that Mr.. Roosevelt has set out
to prevent his nomination and to be-
come the party's nominee in his
place. We believe Mr.. Taft deserves
the nomination. 1t has been the Gus
tom of the party to nominate its
Presidents for second term Why
should Mr.. Taft be the first to suffer
the humiliation of condemnation and
exclusion? Mr.. Roosevelt has given
no reason. He has not said to the
public that Mr.. Taft is not now the
imam whom he described less than four
years ago in the following words:
u do not believe there can be found
4 in the whole country man so well
fitted to be PRESIDENT. He is not only
absolutely fearless, disinterested and
upright, but he has the widest ac-
quaintance with the nations needs,
without and within, and the broadcast
syrlpathies with all our citizens. He
would be as emphatically President
of the plain people as Lincoln and yet
not Lincoln himself would be freer
from the least faint of demagogy."
In office Mr.. Taft has faithfully and
earnestly supported the policies with
which Mr. Roosevelt's name was asso-
t ciated. He has been and is sane
progressive. Nothing more progress
5 sive has been proposed by President
: in many years than his peace treaties
and his urgent recommendation that
all the highest offices in the postal
c and customs and internal revenue
t service be taken ont of politics and
@ made subject to the merit rules
These are the offices which he is now
accused of using improperly in his
own interest. He is a progressive
:, with respect to conservation, reciproc
,, ity, publicity for campaign contribu
+ tions, economy and efficiency. He
stands now for downward revision
n of the tariff, the measure of it to be
!. determined by data procured by q
q competent board He would exclude
logrolling and bargaining from tariff
revision. He is better progressive
+. than Mr.. Roosevelt, for the latter We
