The Assessors of the City of Bridge port will meet at the Assessors Offico, City Hall, on the Second day of Sep tember, 1913, and each week day thereafter, to and including the First day of October, 1913, for the purpose of receiving the sworn lists of all per sons liable to pay taxes on personal property (nanely, horses, wagons, au- tomobiles,, stock in stores, etc.), and real estate, in the City of Bridgeport, making a description of all real es- tate, each parcel being separately de- seribed, including street number. And if he or she shall neglect or refuse to do so, the Assessors shall fill out a list for him or her and add thereto ten per centl1rn of it's valuation.
 The attention of nonresident prop ertv owners is called to the change in the law relating to the filing of their Iists as failure on their part to list their property during September denrives them of the right of appeal fo the Board of Relief.
 Special attention is called to Sec ton 23O3 of the Statutes, which states that each parcel of property must be separately and accurately bounded and described.
 Post Office address of each owner must be given.
 Office hours: a. m. to p. m.; Saturdays, a. m. to 12 m. F. J. HUGHES, LAWRENCE J. GILL, JULIUS w. KNOWLTON, THOMAS C'BRIEN, Board of Assessors.

 The advice was so self evidently good, in fact the only practicable ad vice, that there was no hesitation in accepting it. The boatswain stepped up to the horseb1ock, grabbed the trun- pet and shouted his orders. Presently the ship was hove to with the island well under her lee, distant perhaps league and a half or maybe two leagues. Personally I should not have hove to a ship on a lee shore.

problem as they did the fever-scourge
in Panama, we have nothing to fear
and yet our army included Colonel
| Gorgas and others as skilled when ou1
men were dying off by thousands at
the Chickamauga camp. In time OF
war, science often abdicates, and an,
other leader, known as politics, takes
the reins. If we are ever going tc
| fight Japan, or any other nation, we
must alter this probability. There has
been some effort of late to belittle
Japans achievements in sanitation
during her war with Russia. DR.
Louis Livingston Seaman, who first
brought the reports of Japanese army
sanitation to this country, and is still
the best authority on the subject
writes in the New York Times (June
22) that these efforts are beside the
mark. The final medical statistics of
the war, just issued, show that the
Russian sanitary work was also note
worthy, their army losing 1928 from
disease, and 31,45S from wounds,
showing total loss of only 1856
against Japan's 1928. Our own rec
ord in our next war may be equally
good, but we have no past perform
ances to show for it. Says DR.. Sea-
man:
The astonishing fact revealed in
the figures for the Japanese is that
out of 1928 dead, 1858 met death
from battle casualties, leaving 21,555
who died from all other causes togeth-
er. While the ratio for the Rus
slams is about the same, it still must
be borne in mind that the Japanese
were the aggressive foe, fighting in
the open against an enemy intrenched
in his mountain and other strongholds.
and, further that the severity of the
wounds sustained by the Japanese was
accumulated by the difference in cali
Der OF the rifles used by the Russians.
Compare this wonderful achieve
ment of the Japanese with Longmore's
Tables, based on the records of battles
for the last two hundred years, which
are accepted as the most reliable sta
tistics of war, and which show that
rarely has there been a conflict of any
great duration in which at least four
men have not persisted from disease to
every one from bullets. Yet the Japa-
nese lost nearly three men from battle
casualties for every one man from dis
ease.

viding the nation is not injured in the

ton that the salary paid him by the

ing the portfolio under Mr.. Wilson
knew just the conditions under which
he would have to work. 1t would be
an insult to his broad intelligence to

appear that Mr.. Bryan should not at

physical relief. In the first place Mr..
Bryan is not poor man by any
means, having rating with the big

income of at least five per cent from

Tor all his wants. In the second place
there would seem little need for a va

should be another reason for Mr..
Bryan staying at his post besides a
lack OF reason for a vacation. Right
at present things are in a very trying

The attitude of Mexico toward
Japan is pretty fair indication OF
the status of the United States-Japan
situation. Mexico last week received
with open arms the japanese ambas-
sador, making the ceremony almost a
celebration. Mexico has never been
friendly to the United States. due 10
the operation of the Monroe Doctrine
which Mexico together with the Cen
trail American states believe to be to
their detriment with regard TO colon
ization. For that reason Mexico's re-
ception to the Japan representative
shows very plainly that Mexico hopes
for help from Japan in resisting the
demands of this country for perman-
ent government in Mexico. If trouble
results with Japan, the Mexican sit
uation will be found to be the medium
through which the two bigger nations
will clash

ever reaching the firing-line.
"In our war with Mexico the proper
ton of losses was about three from
disease to one from bullets, and in our
great Civil war nearly the same pro-
portion obtained. In round numbers
of the hundreds of thousands of fatali-
ties in that conflict, nearly three-quar-
tiers resulted from disease Almost as
many men persisted from fevers and
intestinal diseases as were slaughter
ed in the terrible battles that ended
our great conflict.
mo lessons seem to have been
learned from these frightful expert
ences, for later statistics show no i'm
provement. In the French campaign
in Madagascar, in 1894, $4,000 men
were sent to the front, of whom 20
were killed in action and 1000 perish
ed from preventable disease. In the
Boer war in South Africa the English
losses from disease were simply fright
full, greater even than in our Civil war.
But the GROWING piece of imbecil-
ity was for our war with Spain, when
IN 1898 more than thirteen men were
needlessly sacrificed to ignorance and
incompetency for every one who died
on the firing-line or from battle cas-
ualt1es, and that, too, in a war the
chief campaign of which lasted only
six weeks.
Without for moment minimizing
the splendor of her victories on land
and sea-Mukden, Port Arthur, Lao
yang, and the Korean Straits, of which
two are among the bloodiest battle OF
history-I still assert unhesitatingIy
that the greatest conquests of japan
have been in the humanities of war, in
the stopping of needless sacrifice of
life by the prevention of disease"
Long before the opening of HOSTILE
ties, DR.. Seamon tells us, thorough

hospital service, it being recognized
that every soldier saved was a double

partment of her army Of equal import
ance with that of the fighting branch
and ranked its officers accordingly.

JAPAN'S POWERFUL ALLY.

II statistics count for anything, in a
war between Japan and the United
States, Japan could count on an ally
about thirteen times as powerful as
herself. The name of this ally is dis
ease, which in the Spanish American
war struck down thirteen of our men
to every one that fell from the enemy's
bullets, whereas in the Russo-Japa-
nese war the Japanese lost only 81
559 by disease to $3.50 in battle. The
cooperation of disease with our enemy
would of course be dependent on our
selves. If our army officers tackle the

The twilight week day games begun
this week in Twin Falls seem to be
the solution of the weekday baseball
problem. With proper management
the games can be run through long

the weekday afternoon games and in

possibly be made to pay at least ex-

Detroit Baseball Players Threaten to Strike
Claim That Manager Hughey Jennings Is Abusive
By "Bud' Fisher

The first intimation of any con-
spiracy was the ridiculous demand
of Ty Cobb for a salary of $4,000
year. Cobb had just finished a
three-year contract at $4,000.
When Navin refused to listen to
such a "hOld-up' from the Georgian
number of the Tigers who reside
in this city called upon the presi-
dent. Among the lot were Davy
Jones and Sam Crawford. They
are reported to have told Navin
that they would not pl under
Jennings because the poor showing
of Detroit last year was solely due
to Hughes abuse of his players.
Cobb Case Started Row.
Jennings was very popular with
his men until Ty Cobb got into
trouble. Hugh refused to 60 out
on strike with his men in Philadel-
phia. He put in amateurs against
the Athletics to save the club fran
chtse. Jennings was largely instru-
mental in breaking the strike.
Just why the Tigers with a good
team hit the toboggan last June is
told by Davy Jones' the outf1elder,
who was sold to the White Sox
Il was sold because | had in
formed President Navin I never
would play under Jennings again.
and was in position to back up my
resolve" Davy said. Il already
have an option on another drug
store. Sam Crawford and half a
dozen other Tigers have told Mr.
NaVtn the same thing. That Is the
secret of Sans holdout. He is in
position to back up his demand, as
we'll as l, but l don't think the 9TH
have to cave in.
The slump of the Detroit team
last season was due entirely to
Jennings abuse Of the players. He
was forever calling us down with
the harshest of words. He would
call us for making a play one day
and the next day call us for not
making the same sort of play, al
ways in language that no self-re-
specting man will stand.
Isn't Speaking to Manager.
AS a consequence, every player
was sore on him You don't have to
take my word for this. Ask Craw-
ford, Bush or any one who ever
played under him. Crawford and I
both told Jennings at a game in
Chicago last fall that he would have
to lay off us or we would knock
him off, and l never spoke to him
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1913-01-21

afterward. l don't think Sam hs.
either.
Sam demanded that he be traded
to Chicago or some other club. Ma
win could not trade him, because he
wanted TOO much money, SO Sam
put his figures so high that Navin
will be forced to trade him. This
talk is not sour grapes on my part.
for | never hesitated to speak my
mind regarding Jennings.
That was the reason was on
the bench so much last season.
Jennings story that I could not
stand the strain more than two
weeks at a time was rot. He did
not play me because l did not have
to stand for the sort of names he
called me, and would not.
Baseball players nowadays are
men of self-respect, many Of them
college men of high refinement and
education, and they will not submit
to the sort Of rough neck treatment
that was in vogue when Jennings
broke into the game.
That is the whole secret of the
Tigers rank failure last year, and
that will be the cause Of a worse
showing next season. They will be
extremely lucky to finish higher
than seventh, because the players.
with the exception of Cobb, all hate
Jennings, and won't do their best
for him. New York will beat them
out, sure
