Spring FEVER AT

The interest in baseball at the high

Der of future diamond stars are max
ing preparations to start things in
earnest at the first opportunity the
weather maj hands out. Some have
already started limbering up.
The board OF control has refused to
finance q baseball team so the candi-
dates have taken the money end upon
themselves and judging rom their pep
perry start will make it a success. If
the team turned out this year Is sue
cessful, baseball will again become a
major sport at the high school.
The string of twirlers is a good one
and from the list of others who have
signified their intentions of trying out
two fast teams can easily be developed.
Many OF the candidates are former
stars of the graded school league and
not a few have played on the indie
pendent teams around town.
Healy, star HEAVIER of the city, To-
year-old champs OF 1910, should be a
mainstay in the pitching department.
Dawson and Shelton are also there
with the twirltng stuff. There is a
wealth of material for the in1eld and
the outer gardens. McInnis, THEM and
Booth, all members of the track team,
intend to spend a good part of their
time in practicing the national pas
time With this material, the pros
poets are good for a team that will
be q credit To the school.
The board Of control has awarded

receive the coveted letters are Captain

Dickens Fond Of Color.

London Chronicle: W. p. Firth
could boast Of a longer acquaintance
with Dickens than any of his contem-
poraries, barring members of the nov
elist's family. He first met Dickens
over sixty years ago. and in 1858
painted his portrait, at John Forster's
request. Concerning this portrait the
artist writes: Dickens taste in dress
was very curious. When he came to
my studio he was wearing a very large
sky-blue overcoat with bright red
cuffs. I protested that I could not
manage the overcoat and Dickens
with great docility, agreed to aban-
don his favorite article Of apparel, re-
marking, In explanation Of its gaudy
appearance, that he was very fond of
color"

BETTING WOULD

What would happen to baseball if
gambling were allowed is shown con-
slusiveIy in the action OF the cubans.
1t is their custom to start Mendez, the
so-called "Christy Mathewson of Gu
ba,' in important games, taking bets
at odds on the other teams. Then the
star will be withdrawn and the game
come out contrary to the dope. Fine
system. One day Alemida is said to
have approached McGraw and asked
that Mathewson be started and taken
out. McGraw's reply was characters

baseball.

mine" That settled It

JAHNS-0RDEMAN
match AT FORKS

Articles were signed yesterday ac-
cording to Al Powers. manager of
Farmer Jaime. for a match between
Henry Ordeman, the American cham
pion and Farmer Jahns for a finished
bout in Grand Forks on April /.
Farmer Jahns, is without a doubt
the peer of all heayyweights In North
Dakota and his ability. as a wrestler
is well known in these parts. Thurs
day night he journed to Page where
he met and defeated Haskins, who was
reputed to be the leading heavyweight
of the state and who only recently
defeated Nels Moe, OF Christine, who
claimed the title.
The match between Ordeman and
Jahns will be one OF the biggest events
staged at the Forks this winter and
will undoubtedly draw many fans from
all over the state. Jahns is confident
of beating the champion and says the
Minneapolis grappler has lodged him
for many years.

S5.O0O,O0O of mortgage loans, and it is
| due to these loans that hundreds Of
workmens dwellings have been built
out of their savings, as well as bust
ness places The prosperous building
and loan associations also conserve
the savings of labor and have helped
to build up Paterson.
Before the period Of the Morrill, tariff
there was neither a savings bank nor
building and loan association in
Paterson. The savings bank was start
ed in 1869 and the building and loan
associations came in later.
There are now nearly 10000 buildings
| In Paterson. About 400 were DESTROYED
by the great fire in 1902. The wonder
full resources of the city were shown
at that time. All outside help was re-
fused. The silk City, prosperous and
wealthy, needed none. From 1907 to
1911 no less than 2,4Sg new buildings
were erected OF these forty-four were
large mills. All this building gave
work and wages to an army of carpen-
tiers, masons, plumbers and others Of
the building trades.
Paterson is a city Of few large In
dustries. all dependent on tariff nra-
lection. There are few small indus
tries, as III Newark The paralyzing Of
the silk industry alone would spell dis.
aster for the city. The closing of the
! numerous mills would be followed by
hegira of the working population, the
abandonment of hundreds of small
stores with which the working people
trade, and eventually the bankruptcy

Paterson can better be imagined than
described
President Taft maintains that the IT,
dustrial and business fonditions that
characterize Paterson today denote
great prosperity, that they are due to
the protective tariff. and that It would
be crime to destroy tariff protection
and destroy prosperity for Paterson.
Governor Wilson does not deny that
Paterson is prosperous. He does not
and cannot claim that this prospective
is due to some other cause. But in the
true spirit of the toctrinaire and as an

! try free trade to see. what its effect
will be- And evidently he doesn't mar
ticularly care who is hurt. as he is not

OBJECT LESSON IN PROTECTION
What Paterson Has and Would Lose Through Free Trade
Sixth article

Paterson's great silk industry is one
of the marvels of the American indus
trial system, and this splendid edifice
grew up snder the aegis of tariff pro
lection. AS it grew it threw out
branches that took root in Hoboken
Jersey City, Pennsylvania, New York
Connecticut and elsewhere. All the
silk manufacturing Industries of the
country had common root in Pater
| son, fortified by the life giving waters
of tariff protection.
What Paterson would be without her
great silk factories need hardly be said
She would be a mountain village and
would hardly find place on the map
By the last census Paterson had PIC
establishments for the manufacture OF
silk in its various processes. In these
factories there were employed 21,OOC
work people, whose annual wages
amounted to about 100000. The value
Of the product annually was $40,
600 and the capital invested was $685.
100000 This does not include dyeing
and finishing. which is also a great In.
dustry.
In the last decade the growth of the
silk industry in Paterson was phenome-
nal. There was an increase of 140 fac
tories, 5000 work people, nearly So, OO0,-
600 in annual wages. $14 100000 in an
nual product and $7.5O0,0O in capital.
In the state at large there were 346
silk factories. according to the last
census, employing 32,365 hands, paying
out $14.000.0o0 annually in wages. turn
ing out S65.500.OO0 of finished product
and having $44O00.0OO of capital. AS
has been said the silk Industry
throughout the state had its origin in
! Paterson under the tariff protection
that President Taft has so stoutly
maintained against the combined as
saults of the Democrats and mug
wumps in congress-
In 1850 Paterson had population of
1883. 1t had 125,6O0 at the time of
the last census. and In the last decade
the silk industry added 5000 bread
winners representing more than double
that number of new population. SILK
manufacture has made Paterson the
third city of New Jersey in population
and wealth and the second city In the
number of her wage earners engaged
In industries.
In ten years the bank resources of
Paterson, dependent so largely on the
prosperity Of the 276 silk mills, have
doubled There are nine banking in
