Mr.. Gardeners Fight.

Outside of Massachusetts the election
returns show that the Republican party
is gradually recuperating from ITS pun.

marty is such a poor third in states IKE

that at best it's presence in the field only
promotes Democratic victory In New
York state it failed even to defeat the
Republican nominees for the court OF
Appeals. - ~ hss ~ E -.
In this State the difference in the story
is due in part to the rule or rum ne
publicans. Disgruntled by the success OF
Mr. Gardner in the primaries ana ms
refusal to retract any pledge that ne
made in that contest this element de-
prived him of effective organization
That was a handicap which, with the
very efficient and enthusiastic organlza-
ton supporting Mr.. Bird, gave the taSter
the lead over Gardner I.
But those Republicans WHO gave Mr..
Gardner their whole-hearteda support can
take heart from the excellent showing
made by liberal Republicans in other
states. Elsewhere their cause is gain
ing,. and in Massachusetts 1t was only
the termination of Mr.. Gardner and his
Campaign upon liberal platform tnat
saved the party from far worse de-
feat and possibly prevented the election
ofsSird.
Mr. Gardner remains the leader OF his
party in this State until tue next cleo

Loyalty with him, including the young
men and first voters, who were among
his most effective aids, turn their aften-
ton forthwith to the complete re-organi-
cation of their party. beginning in the
city of Boston and Continuing throughout
the State They can then set about their
campaign next year under the auspices
of an organization that will be effective
because it will be both loyal and enthu-
sastic.
Mr.. Gardner has pioneered to good ef7
feet in support of living and liberal
political faith. His face is toward the
future and he is in the fight to stay. He
is the logical leader a year hence for the
only Republicanism that can win or de-

Gov. Baldwin of Connecticut has be-

the Congregationalists at their trien-

laws by State Legislatures that will

What is to constitute fitness? r What
likelihood is there that the sLegisla-

the requirements for a eugenics cere-

Swallowed by the certain conflict Of

couples who cannot marry in one state
will be driven to another to have the

In view of the existing chaos OF sdi-

Daniel W. Smith, well known To-
cal lumberman, has just put another
bolt in the romance of the Maine
woods, SAYS the Lewiston Journal If
he has his way. the picturesque axe
men of the lumber camps will soon
be quite obsolete. He has Invented a
machine for putting EN- completely
out of business. Mr., Smiths inven-
ton is nothing more nor less than an
appliance for saving trees down
with a minimum amount of waste
and labor, In many Maine camps
the old method of chopping trees
has been abandoned in favor OF
four husky woodsmen and a buck
saw. 1t is claimed that much more
of the valuable timber at the butt.
of a tree can be saved in this way
than by chopping. And now comes
Mr.. Smith with what he says is as
great an Improvement over the buck
saw as the saw was over the axe.
Penobscot lumbermen who have been
trying the appliance out are pleased
with the result and it is likely that
next season will find many of the
eastern Maine lumber camps equip.
ned with the new device With it, a
tree can be sawed so close to the
ground that tote team can pass d.
rectIy over the stump without even
jostling the driver. It also affords
a saving in men, as only one Is re-
auired to operate it. The appliance
consists of a folding, adjustable leg
to conform to the evenness OF tne
ground about the tree trunk. On this
machine is mounted a sliding car
rier. the feed for which is furnished
by an adjustable spring and ratche{
attachment. The carrier is fitted with
adjusta bile, roller and saw guides ana

So Fears Hickey. Michigan Coach
Worrying over Slsler.

Ann Arbor, Mich, May hickey,
coach of the University of Michigan
baseball squad, is worried about Sis
Ter, his star pitcher. This young
man, in addition to holding the
strikeout record of the Wolverine
pitching staff, has a batting average
of 52S for SO times at bat in the nine
games in which he has participated
this spring. In spite of this Sisters
ambition is to shine in his class
work, and Hickey is afraid his stud
ious disposition will ruin his batting
eye.
Official averages for the ten games
played by Michigan so far this year
show the team has hit at a 1871 clip.
Sisler leads the squad, with Rogers
second with .4SS; Lavan's mark is
422 and Bells Az. Three others
have hit better than 800.
In the game against Kentucky
State Tuesday Sisler pitched FIVE in
nlngs. He struck out fourteen bat
ters and caught a fly.

Concerning Men With Tails.

1t would not be wise to build upon
the story of the coast natives that in
the interior of Papua there are men
with tails. Similar beliefs have been
held in many parts of the world and
many ages, sometimes from impress
sions Of apes, sometimes from more
or less spiteful credulity about q peo-
pies neighbors. For centuries 1t was
a common gibe on the Continent that
Englishmen had tails. It originated
from the story that the people Of
Canterbury or Strood, having Knocked
at st. Thomas riding upon little ass
and cut off it's tail, were punished
with the curse that thenceforth all
their boys should be born with tails.
And the SCOTS Of other Englishmen at
the 'Kentish longtails" rebounded up
on the whole nation, so that even in
the time Of Edward vi. Englishmen
abroad suffered from the taunt.

PETTY GAMBLING

Is gambling necessarily an inherent
" evil under any and all circumstances
Debating society orators have thumped
the desk on this question from time
immemorial.
Your tender offspring playing mar
bles for keeps, and the haggard game
ster in Monte Carlos Inferno are essent-
tally alike, though separated by infini-
ty Of degree. Yet most parents smiling
ly permit the one, and sternly condem
the other.
William Travers Jerome was arrest
ed at Coaticook, P. O., as an incident
of the Thaw case, on the charge of
participating in rs cent limit game
of poker. He thereby furnished an ex-
for the debating society Demosthenes.
On one side it could be truly said that
that Mr.. Jerome suffered no moral
harm whatever from his act. He pass
ed n pleasant hour at a cost of one
dollar. 1t gave the party needed at a
cheaper rate than if they had hired an
automobile or gone out for 4 game OF
goif.S.F
On the other it will be commended that
the petty gambling of card parties and
railroad trains gives the social sanction
of Influential people to acts that kindle
the fire ofthe gaming lust in others.
- The petty gambling that il becoming
prominent in athletics and games like
bridge forms another kind of case.
Perhaps most people would agree to
this statement: A game or sport gives
keenest enjoyment when you play
purely from love OF doing it well. II
your best reward from the swift and
accurate line drive at tennis is the sense
of power and skill, you get all the game
has to give you.
But if your principal reward from
the stroke sthat through it you won g
box of balls you had bet with your op
ponent, it shows that your sport is not
giving you the good results it ought to
1t indicates that you had to be paid il
order to get full satisfaction from your
efficiency on that occasion. People who
are not efficient unless they are pait
for it may make business successes, bu
they don't get the most fun.
