n EADERS Of that estimable pub
X LEGATION, The Sporting News,
are likely to gain the impress
sion that Clark Griffith and +. f. cal
laway, president of the Atlanta Base
ball Club, are at loggerheads.
As a matter Of fact. these two
magnates are in the throes Of a mild
misunderstanding. And II is not the
fault of Louis A. Dougher, Washing
ton correspondent for The News. that
the difference OF opinion has not
reached the loggerhead stage.
Which. in view Of the close and
friendly business relations existing
between the Crackers and the Sena-
tors, would be decidedly unfortunate
a 5 far as our vision extends, the
u misunderstanding is groundless
And II appears from a perusal of Mr..
Dougher's own article published in
the issue of September IS, that tho
affair is largely of his own CON
struCuon, erected in a quest for fresh
baseball news that would be COM
mendable were it not misplaced.
r BRIEFLY it seems Mr Dougher
- stated, in a previous issue of The
News, that the injury to the arm of
Calvo, the Cuban outhelder sent by
Griffith to Atlanta, was kept a dark
and bloody secret from Griff when
the Crackers returned the little
Cuban last August Also. MIR. Dougher
had something to say about Harry
Holland and Slim Love. intimating
that Atlanta had put one over on
Grif by signing up two players he
was known to be after.
THE following facts are well known
to the writer.
There was absolutely no secrecy
concerning Calvo's injury at the time
he was sent back to Washington. Mr.
Galloway himself gave out the in
formation that Calvo had suffered a
green stick" fracture of his arm, and
that Information was given out and
published In the Atlanta papers as
soon as the extent of the injury had
been verified by an N-ray photograph
Mr.. Galloway SAYS now, and he told
the writer AT the time, that he in
formed Griffith of that fact as soon
as he learned (which was as soon
as anybody learned II.
So much for that
w It'll regard to the signing Of
" Harry Holland, it is a matter
of open and public knowledge that
the Crackers We're after Holland in
1912. and kept after him consistent
" until he decided TO sign It is
hard To believe that Griffith would
make such a claim az Mr. Dougher
attributes to him-that the Crackers
went out and got Holland after learn
ing Griffith wanted him. so as to be
in a position To make some money
on the deal
Holland was signed by the Atlanta
club TO take the place made vacant
by the illness of Whitley Alperman.
and il was that very situation that
induced Harry 10 become a profess
sional ball player-a thing he had
been holding out against for long
time.

Sling Some.

Former Governor Gooding was in
Boise Friday and gave out the follow
ing reply to Senator Brady's Wash
ington interview:
IF telling the truth is going to be
called mud singing in Idaho, then
l am going to do little mud sling
ing, and it will be that kind of mud
that will stick every time l throw it,.
IL see my political opponents are
deploring my attitude. Their excuse
is that the Republican party is going
to be injured in my fight on Mr..
Brady, but no man ever injured any
party by telling the truth. So am
sure that shall neither lnjure the
party nor suffer in the good opinion
of the people of Idaho by a Clean
frank statement of the political con-
ditions within the party Statesman.

STATE TAX COMMISSION
Jurisdiction to Be Decided by
Supreme Court.
TEST CASE IS NOW UP
Clash With Commissioners of
Bannock County.

The Jurisdiction OF the state tax
commission will be decided when the
supreme court takes action on an ap.
pllcation for writ OF mandate which
was dled before that body Tuesday of
last week. The case Is entitled the
state tax commission against the
county commissioners of Bannock
county, but it is said that the decision
Will Tx the position of the tax com.
mission, not only with reference to
county commissioners, but to the
state board Of equalization as we'll.
The immediate purpose of the ap.
plication for the writ of mandate is
to compel the Bannock county com
missiOners to lower the assessment on
the brewery Of Franklin s. Hayes,
located at Pocatello, says the States.
man. The assessment was ordered
lowered by the tax commission, in
contravention to the action of the
county commissioners, sitting as a
board Of equalization.
Franklin & Hayes filed a complaint
with the tax commission, in which
they contended that both the valua
tion of SIS, 200 placed on the brewery
property and that of $500 on the
machinery were unreasonable, and
asked for a reduction, They in
formed the commission that since
Bannock county was placed in the
prohibition column they have derived
no revenue from their property, and
1t was partly on that ground that
they asked for the reduction.

cease when they present their GER
tificates of election" Representa-
tive Towner Of Iowa, cannot find
any justification in the idling in
the house, and he declares that
"we ought either to adjourn or
60 to work" Towner insists that
there is not the slightest possibili-
ty of the currency bill being passed
at this session. Representative
Raker, California democrat, ex.
plains the peculiar condition in
congress by asserting the purpose
of the majority to be to refuse to
lake up any other legislation which
might "distract the country's at
tention, but to rivet and fix it upon
the currency legislation that the
people are demanding and insist
ing on" He says that Mr.. Mann
and his followers are simply "play-
ing politics" and that at was the
intent when this congress con-
vened to pass tariff bill2" He
thinks that "it was the purpose
and intent also to pass currency
bill" He says now that the house
should wait while the senate COM
pletes its work. Leader Mann,
who is always full Of argument,
aud sometimes hubbling over with
sarcasm, remarked that the present
situation in the house OF repre-
sentatives is peculiar, dnd he adds:
"We may lead horse to water,
but we cannot make him drink"
Elucidating this old saw he says
that il the absent ones could be
compelled to return to Washington,
they could not be compelled "to
do business. "If this democratic
congress would now adjourn until
the fourth OF March year after
next" adds Mr.. Mann, ''leaving
the country to itself, it would con-
fer ul,on the land the greatest
patriotic favor within its power.
Next to thar, to declare that it will
not do any bu siness is probably
nearest to patrio tism." However,

! ROOSEVELT IN ARGENTINA
Tells People of Buenos Ayres His
Political Creed.

Colonel Roosevelt, addressing the
people of Buenos Ayres. spoke
at length on the topic Of recalling
judicial decisions. In the United
States, he said. certain great privl.
legged interests had sought for two
generations to rob the people of their
sovereignty by dividing it between
courts and legislatures and finally by
placing it in the courts through Civ.
ing the courts political and non.
judicial power. This was one Of the
grave evils which he said he and his
followers sought to wipe out. Among
the many reforms written on their
program, he said, were these:
1--WE propose to make the process
of constitutional amendment far
easier, speedier and simpler than at
present.
"We wish to make the people the
supreme arbiters between their serv-
ants, the court and the legislature,
when the court and the legislature
differ as to the proper Interpretation
of the constitution which the people
made.
I'VE know that it is folly to try TO
make the fool the equal of the wise
man. but, we intend TO control greed
aud cunning and brutality 10 high
places just as we control greed and
cunning and brutality 10 10"
places.
1--WE intend TO provide for the
| mother whose husband. the bread
winner, has died.
1--WE intend to protect the right Of
children TO their childhood.
.From men and women who Worl
hard with clean hands we intend II
try to lift the burden OF haunting
fear of an old age OF undeserved pen
ury and misery.
1--WE intend that machinery shal
he the handmaiden and not the mis-
tress of humanity.

ment a most potent Instrument u
