OF the baseball battle between Ban

played before fair sized crowd. on
Wednesday afternoon, on Libby field
Belger was in the box for the local
boys and was effective at all times
At no period of the game did the vis-
uors make any special tally in an eff
fort to even things up. Not once did
they get man as far as third base.
What few hits We're made off Belger
We're scattered and We're of no avail.
The home team run in two scores in
the first inning. Libby, the first man
up, was hit by Savage. A hit by Assn
ley and errors by Bangor's center
felders and second baseman enabled
Libby and Williams to score. Fos-
ter pushed out a neat single in the
second and the succeeding batters
made good to the extent that he was
able to score. Another tally was run
across in the fourth and still another
in the seventh. That ended the scor>
ing. The game had no special fea-
lures. except perhaps the fielding or
both teams and the batting of Fors-
ter and Ashley.

JUSTICE AND THE. LAW.
Multiplicity of Laws Due to Spirit of
Law Defiance.

4 writer in the current issue of u
prominent magazine. more or less
muck raking in its tendencies makes
much of the enthusiastic approval be-
slowed by audiences which hear this
line decleamed by lawyer in popu-
lar play. We don't call them courts of
law" The loud applause which invari-
ably greets this line is taken by the
writer as evidence of the deep sea ted
vcneration in which justice is held by
the great common people and of their
protest against any legal quibbles, de-
lays, technicalities and other obstacles
20 the securing of equal Justice between
man and man.
Eut curiousiy enough. the writer
twists the logic of this assumption by
calling attention to the fact that the
Amer lean people are not essentially
lave biding; that there is a very gen
eral one might almost say universal
evasion uf the law to suit the conVen-
fence or the more selfish purposes of
the individual. The writer is ON much
safer and more solid ground in this
connection than when he presumes any
really widespread dissatisfaction with
or distrust of the efficacy OF the law
ana the courts. IL is tne uepiofdpie
truth that the sole excuse forsthe null
tip.icity of laws that are croWding the
statute books is the spirit OF la~-de-
liance which is So prevalent AT tins
