ABOUT POLITICS

A brief summary OF Tue pOIlti-
cal situation all over the Nation
appearing in the last Sunday
edition of the Lexington Leader
gives some interesting facts con.
corning the reuniting of the two
parties, Republican and Progress
sive. Editor Roberts review'
the situation after. investigating
conditions and reports and by
communication with the varion'
leaders in the several states anc
is in position to give the trut
facts to which he adds his opin
ions.
In Kentucky there has been
much talk of fusion between the
Republicans and the Progresslv
es and in some counties there
probably in some agreement, but
generally speaking, there lisa
tendency of the Roosevelt fol-
lowers to go it alone, a condition
no doubt brought about by the
stringent Primary Law of this
state which does not permit OF
fusion. Here in Knox County
there was some considerable talk
Of a fusion of the Progressive
and the Democrats but 1t no"
appears that each party will have
candidates of their own. The
Democrats realize that this year
they have the best chance Tor
many years past to grab some oil
the local county offices and they
do not now propose to be side
tracked. Already we have an
announcement from a Republi
can and from a Progressive, al
though the latter party has not
yet perfected their organization
However they will get together
about the first week in March
and will then formulate plans
for their campaign.
Knox County has always been
Republican, overwhelmingly So
and under ordinary circumstan-
ces the Democrats would not
have look-in, and it was hoped
that those who deserted the par-
ty last fall would see the error
Of their ways and help to reor-
ganize the party that has done
50 much for them and that we
could ali join together in the
fight against the common enemy.
There are many good citizens in
the county who voted for Roose-
Welt last fall who were sincere
and voted that way as a repud-
iation of the methods used by
Taft at the Chicago convention,
who are now back under the old
banner, while on the other hand
we have yet to bear of one single
person who has joined the Bull
Moosers since the election.
The Republicans were IN the
majority then and they are con-
siderably so now. Personally we
have some good friends on both
sides and would be glad to see
them reach compromise and
rally round the old flag" Let
US forget Taft and Roosevelt and
reason among ourselves a little,
for neither of these two persons
are concerned about our inter
ests here. We have our own
to deal with and why
can we not advance our own in
terests as well or better than
Roosevelt. Taft. Bradley or Les
lie Combs?

basket to bring Tige back in. l asked
Bill If he thought Tige would jump
off the boat if l let him run around

ter mot let him loose. One of those
seagulls may mistake him for a dog
fish and sweep down and carry him
away
Those seagulls, like the ones that
followed us down from New York for
three days and three nights, are GER
tainly big birds, and they can fly
faster than an express train. They
go all the way into land to sleep and
catch us again the next morning. I
counted how many postals / sent

nine letters. Gee! that's more people
than lives in the whole town. | must

extravaganza in every town l go to,
even though everybody wants a card.

butterflies have beautifully colored

a summer resort outside of Savannah,
today, and Collins and l had a swim

and went out further than / did, but
I never was in salt water before, and
it seemed funny to me. / asked Bill
how deep the ocean was, and he said

BASEBALL TRAINING METHODS BEHIND
THOSE USED IN ALL OTHER SPORTS

with the fact that the ball players
are turned loose at the hotel table to
eat and drink what they see fit, is
responsible for not few youngsters
failing. Such a thing as trainer
who knows anything about training
from a scientific standpoint is prac-
tically unknown. Most of the trainers
are old-time athletes, who have never
known the inside of an institution OF
learning where the construction ana
care of the human obdy is taught, and
who laugh at what they term "boolS
learning" The matter of training is
for the most part left in the man
ayers hands, and he gives the men
as much work as he happens to feel
like.
What appears to be the trouble now
is that with one or two exceptions
the owners of clubs are men who
know but little modern athletics,
while the managers have come up
through the old school of learnins
baseball on the lots. Some day a
club will have management which
will adopt modern ideas, and base>
ball training will be revolutionized.
Young players will be ordered to re-
port two or three months ahead, in
stead of one, and intelligent coaches
placed in charge. There will be a
trainer who knows his business and
doctor will be on hand to take caro-
of his part of the work. Training
rules and a training table will be in
order then. When this time comes
club owners will be spending less
money buying material, which il
bound to prove useless, and more in
telifgent development of that secured.
