CHANCE WANTS TO "CAN"
MECHANICS OF HIS CLUB

NEW YORK, Jan. 1S.-Frank Chance,
the new manager of the New York Amer
leans, is determined the can" the link
which has pursued the Inflated Hilltop
pers ever since they started doing busi-
ness
His first innovation was the selection
of Bermuda as training ground. Chance
thinks it may be lucky move also to
drop the nickname, Yankees" He has
suggested this in a letter to President
Frank Farrell, which read in part as fol-
lows:
Wouldn't it be good idea to call our
team the New Yorks instead of the
Highlanders, Yankees, Hilltops, Hillmen
or Kilties? McGraws men have a copy
right on the nickname Giants, and they
deserve it, for they have accomplished big
things in the National league They all
ways will be Giants in the full sense of
the word.
Therefore. in calling our team the
New Yorks we are not appropriating
something that doesn't belong to us
The nickname 'Highlanders, Yankees
and others are meaningless. In cities
outside Of New York they attract no at
tenton. In fact. ! think that this nick
name business in baseball has been over
done.

Jim Savage Taking Weight in
Hopes of Winning Title; Meets
Al Kubiak Here Tuesday Night

ANY Eastern boxing experts
vi believe that Jim Savage, the
clever New York heavy
weight, stands a fine chance of
some day being champion. He is a
clever two-handed mixer. and car
ries pretty good kick, especially
in his right hand. But Jim is just
triie too light. His manager,
Dan Morgan, who also looks after
Jack Britton and Knockout Brown.
is now working to build up his
heavyweight.
Let Savage take on twenty more
pounds. and I'll bet all my bank roll
that he can beat McCarty, johnson,
Langford or any other man in the
world" writes Morgan from New
Orleans.
During the past year Savage has
gained in weight, and as a result
he has defeated such good men as
Al Kubiak and Tom Kennedy. the
latter the former amateur heavy
weight champion.
Next Tuesday night Savage will
meet Kubiak again. This pair have
been signed to box at the Dixie
Athletic club, and they should put
up rafting good scrap.
Kubiak claims he is in line for
the white championship because he
defeated Carl Morris here. Saw

M UGH foolish praise has been ac-

virtually useless for other purposes

That racing will ever be e-estab-
lished in America on a large scale
is extremely doubtful. Americans
don't believe in gambling, and with

Therefore, why perpetuate equine
racing machines?

The companies who are staging
this bout in hopes of raising enough
money to attend the Inauguration of

Here's hoping that they will be
able to raise enough money to make
the trip.
With the receipts of the Brown
Abel match the Capital City Guards
and the Atlanta Grays intend to
secure the winner with Battling
Nelson for a date about ten days
or two weeks later. out of the two
matches they surely ought to get
enough money to pay their expenses
to Washington.

Bishop Gambler in his Thanksgiv-
ing sermon asked in vehement voice:
rs ours government by majority?
He was emphatic as he Indignantly
answered mo-"
What did the great orator have in
mind? He well knew the history OF
the convention which framed our
constitution. He knew that with
the different kinds of government be-
fore them our fathers rejected mon
archy, even a limited monarchy; re-
iected direct democracy as now pro-
posed through a national referen-
dunn, and deliberately and wisely
chose a representative democracy,
which they called a republic. ours is
a limited, not an unbridled democ-
racy. 1t has its checks and balances.
Minorities are not left to the abso-
Lutte mercy of majorities. Delaware
is the equal of New York in the sen

Alexander II. Stevens, in his his
tory of the United States, says: 1T
may be accepted as an automatic
truth that no people, howsoever
blessed with the amplest guarantees
of liberty, founded on constitutional
can retain the inestima-
Bile boon long who do not thoroughly
understand the nature, the principles
and limitations of the government
on which it rests; and who are not

devotion to these principles with an

These are the qualities Mr.. Jefferson
meant by the virtue, intelligence
and patriotism of the people"
The country has been flooded with
false teachers. LaFollette in Wes-
leyan chapel, taught doctrine trait
orous to the nature and purpose OF
our representative system. He stood
for a majority rule of the masses,
REGARDLESS of states. That is what he
meant by "the people must rule

of that Western anti-constitutional

Whiskey Breath TabOoed.

The census bureau at Washington
has a Sahara-like feeling, and there
promises to be many moons before
this arid atmosphere vanishes. Di-
rector Harris, the Georgia gentleman
who was some time ago elevated to
that important position, has, it is
said. banned the use of liquor in any
form and under any pretense by those
employed under him, and even the
smell of liquor on the breath will
lead, if detection is made, to certain
suspension. Sickness will not be &C
cepted as an excuse for having the
odor of whiskey on the breath, for
Director Harris reasons if a man is
sick enough to need stimulant he
is sick enough to remain at home and
not report for work.
We wonder if cloves and lemon
rind and other breath deordorizers
will be placed under ban by Mr.. Har-
ris. They are very useful, we are
told. for killing the smell of whiskey,
and their use may very easily lead
to suspicion.
This new rule of the Director may
open up a job for one more pa
triot, as, evidently, the census bu-
reau needs breath tester-one who
can nicely differentiate between
odors. And he'll be welcome to the

A Medical Revolution.

Much has been written designed
to show the superiority of the knife
over medicine in the treatment of in
ternal diseases. Surgery has made
wonderful strides in the last few
years, and spectacular operations
performed by skilled and daring sur
geons have strengthened its hold
both on the public and on the rank
and file of the medical profession.
Now, however, DR.. John B. Murphy,
the famous Chicago surgeon, predicts
that the temporary obscured internal
medicine is destined to surpass sur
gerry in value to the human race dur
ing the next twenty years. 1t will
be an improved internal medicine~-a
practical, careful study that will go
into details, make analysis, and en-
deavor to arrive at. a correct digano-
sis; careful examination that will
cure the disease almost before the
patient knows it is there.
The Clinical Congress of Surgeons
of North America, at which DIR. Muir
ply voiced his dictum, declared war
upon 'IegaIized murder by inexperi-
enced men in the profession and will
attempt to secure the enactment of
laws providing for five years general
medical practice before permitting
physicians to operate. At present, it
is alleged, graduates of medicine who
have never had a scalpel in their
hands leave college TO 20 out and
practice surgery on patients, without
having taken a course even in dog
surgery.

The Passing Indian

Pushed beyond every frontier, his
home and his hunting grounds lost to
him. shut away from his buffalo and
antelope, the old Indian stands at the
end of his journey, says an exchange

Young men of the plains will receive
their heritage of land and bounty;
hut from all present indications they
will do little with it, and few short
wears will suffice to see the heritage

deemed by the white man.
The Indians remaining tomorrows
are few, and they will soon be lost in
the generations yet unborn. The

the dead march in Saul. 1t is a long,
long chapter from the cordial vel
come of the red man when Columbus

man more than 400 years later, but
the end is almost here. And now our
