GING AT THE BARRIERS
BALL.

For four hours on the night of the
27th of this month, we will be in the
hands of the BARRIERS of Everett, but
you won't hear, you're right next, "
when you're four turns away or be
told you, need a massage" when all
in the world you want is shave.
The "auspicious occasion" as the So
ciety writer would say, will be the an
nual ball and joyfest of the journey

staged at Masonic hall. Wagner's or
chestra will fill the room with melody,
while the floor will be managed by
the ladies of the label league. The
tonsorial artists intend to leave no
thing undone that will in any way
contribute to the enjoyment of their
guests, and take it from us, they are
some entertainers.

His marks were short, sharp, practi-

through, the senate passed his bill
with only two dissenting votes.

RETIRING PRESIDENT OF

PRESSES APPRECIATION OF
PAST SUPPORT OF LOYAL
UNIONISTS.
Seattle, Wash, Feb. 2S, 1913.

Seattle, Wash, Feb. %, 1913.
Fellow Trade Unionists:
In the closing hour of my service
as president of the Washington State
Federation of Labor, feel that final
message is due those who have ar
IDENTIFY supported my efforts.
Each succeeding year in such cap
acity has been an ever-increasing
pleasure because of the splendid
growth, the rapid development of
higher ideals and the vast amount of
good results attained in behalf of hui
manity
While rapidly attaining the better
ment of conditions for which we have
faithfully striven, we have at the
same time by policy of honest pub
licity and disposition of fairness
toward all, developed spirit of
friendship and good will of public
who have as rapidly learned that ours
is the cause of humanity. 1t has been
a period of rapid development to all
of us and l deeply appreciate the op-
portunity of having been, through
your sufferance, one of the active par
Elephants.
When the Hon. Geo. F. Cotterill,
mayor of Seattle, who as citizen, state
senator, and mayor, had always aided
our work and cause, rendered me the
position of superintendent of streets
and sewers, | felt that under his sup
ervision such position afforded
equally great opportunities of partici-
patton in the cause of the common
people The problems of wage work
ers are, with the rapid growth of pub
lie ownership of public utilities and
congestion in cities, coming to be
more and more a problem of fair deal
from municipal authorities.
My position, involving participation
as a member of the board of public
works, in all public work done by or
for the city, and direct supervision
of all street and sewer work, brings
me in contact with all municipal con-
struction and maintenance work and
affords daily opportunity to materi-
ally aid the cause we have learned to

season. Chicago fans are practically
unanimous that the palm should go to
Ray Schalk of the White Sox and
they have much company in other

to dispute the right to the honor of
the young backstop corralled by

to watch the work of Schang in a bit

as good receiver as Schang, but !

While some fans and critics are in

is interesting to know what scribes

SOME Merry PLAYERS
Bresnahan Praises Men Who Can
Deliver When Needed.
Substitute Catcher for Chicago Cubs
Praises Frank Schultz, outfielder,

In baseball there are two kinds Of
nerve, according to Roger Bresnahan,

sessed by the type Of player who bull
lies men on the field, has a weak
heart when he is asked to go to the
plate in the ninth inning with q man
on third and drive home the run that
will win the game. The other Is the
player who refrains from pugilistic
tactics, but has heart of steel. takes
q viselike grip on the bat and grits
his teeth when the responsibility OF
scoring a run is put up to him.

easiest to beat In a game and the sec

fellows playing ball today who can
trim me off the field, but when 1t

own with any of them.
"Bescher was up in the ninth in
ming in pinch, when just little sin

game. He was aware that it was up
to him to rap out the hit that would
turn the tide. But he was as nervous

he took it seriously. That was how
the argument started. That was ex-

Want ReformatIon Of Laws.

court procedure in order to eliminate
vexatious delays. was the theme at the
annual dinner OF the Lawyers club at
the Hotel Cadillac, Detroit, following
the election of officers.
James II. Pound was the principal
exponent of change in procedure in
the Michigan laws.
IF you don't do It," he declared,
1.-The time will soon have gone by when
1t can be done properly. and we will
be unable to effect the needed change.
Since 1910, there has been no attempt
In Michigan to tighten the burden Of
litigation.
Owing to the present system of
procedure, know OF many who refuse
to go to court to contest their legal
rights because of the indeterminate
nature of cases and the uncertainty
in getting timely decisions. Suits now
drag along for years with one techni-
cality and another. We should be able
to tell our clients when they might
reasonably expect a settlement of their
cases, but with the present procedure
we cannot do so.
"As the laws and the procedure are
today we do not know II we will be
alive when a verdict is reached.
Our English cousins set US the best
examples of expeditions methods OF
getting at settlements of cases. From
1885 to 1910 they wiped out 24O causes
of actions in the English courts. We
in Michigan have too many hair.split-
ting technicalities in our procedure.
We owe a debt of justice to ourselves
as well as to the public. and we should
set seriously about the reformation Of
our laws, and keep at it till we get
something"
Mr.. Pound was called upon by Toast
master James D. May to tell some
thing of the Roosevelt libel suit in
Marquette. n
Walter j. Oxtoby gave reasons why
Michigan's laws should be reformed
and related his conception and ex-
periences in Canadian courts, where
cases are expedited by simple proceed
ure which he explained. Thomas A.
f. Weadock, who attended the state
bar meeting at Lansing, said lawyers
should get together, start out with
definite ideas of reforms, and stick to
them until something was accomplish
ed. He believed in the rotation Of cir
cult judges from city to city through
out the state.
President May Of the club related
stories OF cases which dragged their
weary way through the courts because
of the technicalities that could be
taken advantage of under the present
system OF procedure. He spoke of a
case In which Mr.. Pound was interest
ed. which lasted nine years and was
only ended by agreement. Former
Circuit Judge John j. Speed spoke
briefly.

bers of the club elected James d. May
