Baseball.

Newport lost to the Boston Reds
again Wednesday afternoon by score
of Ga This game like the previous
one, was clean and Newport certainly
put up good game of ball. Davis
put it over the Boston boys for few
innings with his slow ball, which
puzzled them some, but with their
natural faculty for solving all of these
problems the Reds began to tumble.
Although they hit hard the fielding
was fine and seldom are the fans in
this locality permitted to see such a
talent of baseball as was displayed in
this game. The management has been
obliged to cancel many games on
account of the Jack of funds, which is
a deplorable fact in a sport loving
community, and in order to relieve
them of their embarrassment, meet
ing of all those who are interested in
baseball has been called at the Y. M.
I. c.. rooms Wednesday evening at s
o'clock to see what can be done to
help put the team on sound financial
basis.

Automobile Accidents.

An accident which might have
resulted in serious injury to several
parties, but thanks to the kindness of
Dame Fortune only resulted in
damaged cars, occurred on the Coventry
road near the big rock situated little
more than half way from this place to
Coventry at about five o'clock Sunday
afternoon. A car containing party
from New Hampshire was on their
way to Calais, when another car,
driven by a man from Barton, whose
name could not be ascertained, rounded
a curve and was said to have been
going at high rate of speed, side
swiped the New Hampshire car and
bent the front axle and turned the
machine over the bank. The par ty
and machine landed right side up and
no one sustained injuries. The car
was badly marked up and was taken
to the True & Blanchard garage,
where it was put in running order and
the party left Monday for Calais. On
| Saturday George Beaumont. while
driving his machine along the same
road, lost control of the car and went
over a small embankment near the
road leading to the North neighbor-
hood, and escaped with only broken
mudguard and a bent axle. 1t took
six hours to get the car into the road,
owing to the very inconvenient posi-
ton of the car. Francis Tinkham,
while returning from trip to points
in Maine was in a head-on collision
with another car but suffered only
/ slight damage to his lamps and mud
guards.

The senate 8 Emphatic Vote.

IL is gratifying that the Senate yester-

Fallacies Regarding Washington.

In the course of a paper read before the
Columbia Historical Society at it's meet
ing last night Dr. Thomas Nelson Page
set forth and strongly combated certain
fallacies relating to Washington which I'M
fortunately prevail in the minds of some
legislators. 1t is particularly important
at this juncture, with the District ap-
preparation bill under consideration in
Congress. in circumstances that call for
a stout defense of the principles which
govern in the administration of the Ma
tional Capitals affairs, that these fana-
cies should be clearly set forth and el..-
phatically refuted, and there is no one
better qualified to state the case than Dr.
Page himself a permanent resident of
Washington and a careful student of
it's history. In the course Of his paper
before the Historical Society he points
out the error of the assumption that
Washington is a city composed largely of
a wealthy population engaged for the
most part in Sinking their proper duties
to the District, with a considerable num-
Der Of them enriching themselves through
real estate specLlations." Another fallacy
that DR.. Page successfully attacks is that
this city stands on the same footing with
other cities Of the same size.
Washington is the nations city, created
by the United States as its seat of gov
eminent, designed upon a broad scale
suitable for the purposes of a federal
city. but far larger than the immediate
resources of the municipality could ever
be expected to maintain. Today it Is the
desire of the people of the United
States that Washington should be devel-
oped in accordance with this original
plan, and that it should have a model
municipal organization and present to
the entire country the spectacle of an
ideally equipped, ideally managed COM
munity. The country is proud of " ash
ington, and it is inconceivable that there
should be in the states any sympathy
for the endeavors of those who are seek
ing, by repudiation Of the equitable part
nership agreement whereby the United
States assumes one-half of the cost of
District maintenance, to throw Washing
ton back upon its own resources, which
have been heretofore shown to be made
qrate for the needs Of a purely federal
city. DR.. Pages remarks before the CO.
lumbia Historical Society, which appear
in extenso in another part of The Star
today, should meet the eye of every
member of Congress at this critical time,
when the issues raised by the antagonists
of the present system of local govern
nent are in course or settlement.

matters. little learning may be a dan
gerous thing. Absolutely the worst men
who have come to America from Europe
in the past forty years were able to read
and write when they landed, and they
proceeded to exercise their ability at once
to the injury of their adopted home. They
had not come to accept and help strength
eli conditions here. but to overturn them
ii possible, and make them conform to
notions of their own. The creatures who
n. j.. until its reputable people. native
and foreign born alike have been obliged
to protest publicly. read and write in sew
eral languages.
Mr.. Lodge thinks that as i'm some things
We impose the iteracy test on our own
people we are at liberty to and should i'm
pose 1t on foreigners But there is diff
ference. The man who in this country
where an education is within the reach
of almost ALL neglects his opportunity and
prefers illiteracy testifes to unworthiness

the poor are unable to reach the schools

Charges are easily made. and in all i'm
portant controversies are made. On the
one hand We hear that the steamship
companies are the inspiration of the OPP
position to the bill. and on the other hand
il is asserted that many of the supporters
Of the measure are being driven by in
fluences having a labor trust in view.
1t is true that the steamship companies
are always eager for passenger traffic
and promote it whenever possible. and it
is equally true that certain labor leaders
in this country would be glad to see the
gates closed against all immigration. But
the question now at issue is not being
considered on the basis of either of those
propositions 1t is very important: and
as IL goes to the root of things we shall
see it settled finally upon basis taking
into account much larger things than pas
sage money. or wage scales sustained by
restriction of labor.
