ROBERTSON LAW GOOD ONE.

The charge that the Robertson fire
insurance law is responsible for the
high rate of interest being charged for
farm loans is just another attempt 10
null the wool over the eyes of the Tex
as voters long enough to have them
repeal this law by odds the best Tor
Texas of any law enacted since the
days of James S. Hogg. No more is
being charged for farm loans now than
was the case before the Robertson law
was enacted. This law does not for
bid outside insurance companies loan
ing their money in Texas, but 1t does
require that foreign insurance com
panies invest certain percentage oil
their Texas business in Texas securi
ties. That's the why for this howl
or demand for the repeal OF this
splendid law, and any candidate foi
office who favors its repeal should Dc

RoOSEvELT'S PLATFORM.

Roosevelt made a speech at Buenos
Ayres outlining the policy of the pro-
gressives. He said: I'VE propose to
make the process of constitutional
amendment far easier, speedier, and
simpler than at present
1--WE wish to make the people the
supreme aribters between their serv-
ants, the courts and the legislature,
when the court and the Legislature
differ as to the proper interpreta.
ton of the constitution which the
people made.
1--WE know that it is folly to try to
make the fool the equal of the wise
man, but we intend to control greed
and cunning and brutality in high
places, just as we control greed and
cunning and brutality in low places.
1--WE intend to provide for the
mother whose husband, the bread
winner, has died.
1--WE intend to protect the right o
children to their childhood.
From the men and women wh'
work hard with clean hands we in
tend to try to lift the burden o
haunting fear of an old age OF un
deserved penury and misery.

be the handmaiden and not the mis-
tress Of humanity.
1--WE intend to make the govern
ment a most potent instrument In
working for the uplifting OF mankind.
THE first essential to settle is
who shall speak with authority. In
democracies our answer is the peo-
pie. This necessarily means the ma
jority of the people. Majorities change
however. The shifting of small per-
centage of votes may, and as matter
of fact continually does, reverse the
position of majority and minority IN
almost all democracies.
ut is therefore essential to secure
forms of government under which
two purposes shall be served
First, the people shall have am
ple opportunity deliberately to make
IN their minds, so that the course OF
action decided upon will not be due
merely TO whim.

"The people should have ample time
to think over a matter before coming
to a definite decision. Once they have
reached their decision, their action
should be real and effective, and their
power complete.
Sham, pretense. hypocrisy are
public vices everywhere, but nowhere
are they destructive as in a democ-
racy. To make believe to give man
power or a right, and yet not really
give it to him, trains him to be bad

CHICAGO, July 8.-The owners OF

between them for a trade or sale OF
players.
1t is stated on good authority that
Cincinnati viii get a couple or prob
ably three Cubs, and that Bobby

Is not thought that Garry Hermann
or Manager Tinker would let Bescher
go, but any man Is liable to be let out

IS considered the fastest and best
base runner in the National League,
Heine Zimmerman is one of the
players mentioned on the Cub side of
the deal. Zimmerman has openly at
tackled Johnny Evers and his meth
DDS of management and at times has
threatened to assault him. Bescher
was sought recently By New York
but Manager McGraw would not give

DOUBTLESS THERE ARE IN

DOUBTLESS THERE ARE IN
Vulnerable reasons for the run
away of the Athletics in the Amer
lean League. but the six best that
occur to us are as follows, to wit:
Collins, .348; Strunk. 1926; Thorn
as, .316; McInnis. 1888; Baker, .315,
and Oldring, .294.
A further fact, which beyond
peradventure, has some bearing on
the situation, is that the grand aver
age for team batting up to this
time is .277. From these figures you
might say that they are hitting
considerably without fear Of over
stating, and hitting consistently and
hard has been known to have
marked effect on the result Of ball
games.
AS the figures now stand. Con-
ME Mack can place nine men, all
regular ball players, In action. ana
abouts This is frequently the case
when Bender is pitching. as the
Indian is rated as a 800 man.
Imagine the feelings OF the earn
est and ambitious twirler in the
American League when he steps
onto the rubber In the first in
ming and knows that about seven
of the nine men that will face him
have each one chance in three to
make a hit every time he comes
to bat
This is the way the Mackmen
were going when they tore our
well-known Giants into little bits
a couple of years ago. As Ed
Walsh remarked at the time, out
Of nine men eight were hitting 800,
and the ninth-BArry-wa the
most dangerous ni;ter of the lot.
The wonder is not that they are
leading the league, but that there
is any league left to lead.
1T WILL BE A SHOCK TO A
lot of the Celtic supporters of that
sterling scrapper, Gunboat Smith.
to learn that his real name is Ed
Eckblad.
1T is POINTED OUT THAT
the old Cincinnati Reds in 1869
had a payroll of $4,000 for the
whole team and Ty Cobb is get
ting $12.5O0 for his bit alone But
it is not pointed out that even en-
thusiasts of the most pronounced
type considered % cents entirely
too much to charge for a ball game
in those days.
SPEAKING OF THE old-timers
reminds us that there are lot of
antiquaries in the National League
who are still able to potter around
and hit a baseball occasionally
when all the conditions are right.
Hans Wagner is batting .317,
somewhat behind Johnny King,
who has hung up a 1888 Cravath
has a 800 mark and old Doc.
Crandall IS plugging along with
.S53. All of these men have been
in the league for some ten years
or more and are six of the best ten
hitters.
THERE is LITTLE LiKELI-
hood of tangible results from the
effort to organize a pugilists' pro-
tective association. The assoCia-
ton would break up over the cleo
