ON THE DIAMOND

San Francisco, Feb. 18.-Harry
Krause is no longer holdout. Yes
terday the Portland twirler received a
revised contract from Manager Wal
ter McCreedie, the terms of which are
satisfactory and the southpaw will af-
fix his signature thereto. Krause had
good year in 1913 in spite of the
fact that he got off to bad start and
had low percentage of games won
for the first half of the season. In 1912
Krause led the American Association
twirlers.
Claire Goodwin, the second baseman
secured by "Pop" Dillon for Los An
geles last year from the University
of California team, is having hard
time deciding between the Federal
league and the Angels. Last week it
was announced by George Stovall,
manager of the Kansas City Federals,
that he had signed Goodwin. Now the
Los Angeles club has a contract
signed by Goodwin and complications
may arise if the rivals for possession
of the infielder care to carry the mat
tier into court.
Oroville, Cal. Feb. 18.-Bill James,
a local boy who was formerly a
pitcher with the Seattle Northwestern
club, and who played last year with
Boston. received an offer from the
Federal league today He was offered
$4,000 year with a bonus of $500 if
signs for three years. He is unde-
cided.
San Francisco, Feb. 18.-George
HORNE, holder of the worlds record
in the running high jump, has turned
to another field of activity for lau-
rels, in the form of baseball. Horine
plays first base with the Palo Alto
"hum town" baseball aggregation and
reports have it that he connected with
two bagger and single or two on
Sunday.
HORNE hopes to become as profic-
lent at the national pastime as he has
at clearing the high jumn bar.
New York, Feb. 18.-It was learned
today that the decision of the Federal
league to invade Brooklyn was decided
upon last week after the national COM
mission refused to allow the American
association to present to Charles
Weeghman of Chicago a franchise of
that league as peace gift.
1t is understood that President
Thomas Chivington came here with
full authority from the American as
sociations to give Weeghman a club
located in Chicago. Chivington said
that this organization was so anx-
ious to locate in the windy city that
the Chicago Federal league man could
have it free of charge, just to coax
him away from the opposition.
If this plan of Chivington and
Weeghman's had gone through, the
Federal league would have gone out of
business. Ban johnson. as usual. was
the man who blocked the deal. When
the matter was first brought before
the American league last Tuesday the
matter was killed at Johnson's sugges-

REVISING THE NAVY
PROMOTION PLAN

Washington, Feb. 18.-Secretary
Daniels plan to create six vice admi-
rails, changed by the senate so as to
result in reduction from Is to IL rear
admirals, is meeting with vigorous OPP
position from the officers of the navy.
The vice admirals were authorized
by the senate, but the number of au-
thorized rear admirals was cut from
18 to IL and the retirement age fixed
at 65 years.
This, it is said, will delay at least
six years the promotions to the rank
of rear admirals of many officers now
ready to be advanced to that grade.
Because of the navy departments
dissatisfaction, Chairman Padgett will
have a special meeting of the house
naval affairs committee, when the
matter will be threshed out and some
arrangement made to protect in grade
present officers.
Representative Britton of the house
naval affairs committee, opposes this
reduction of rear admirals, claiming it
would have a bad effect on the navy.
He said:
"The plan would congest promotions
even more than at present. There is
a slump in the personnel now which
results in officers staying too long in
one rank. Every opportunity should
be offered naval officers to get the
highest rank and responsibility while
they are in their best years."
One plan suggested by the house
committee is to create three vice adj
mirals; one for the Atlantic, one for
the Pacific fleet, and the other at large,
to be rushed from any point where his
rank services may be needed for the
dignity and conduct of affairs in the
interest of the United States. This
will be urged as compromise. Pre-
liminary polls taken on battleship au-
thorization taken of house affairs COM

Democrats are opposed to two or more
battleships for this year. These
Democrats are Witherspoon, Missis-

The formal committee votes on bat=
tIeships will come after the committee

tion, the appropriation for an Atlantic

Stockton will surely be elected this
time; no one in Florida deserves more
of the Democratic party than he does.
Fletcher is one progressive and has no
real sympathy with the great masses
of our people. His record in the SEN
ate has not been such as to inspire
confidence. John Stockton has never
yet made a move that did not have
for it's aim the best interests of suf-
fering humanity. Will the people be
deceived this time by the lies that will
be circulated about him during this
campaign? But we wish he may win.

An Editors Beans

An E0IporS 6SanS-
We have heard of an editors bean"
which is a Slangy, baseball way of re-
ferring to his head, and we highly dis
approve the simile as lacking in the
respect due to the chief functional GEN.
ter Of the great Fourth Estate of gov
eminent and morals. But when you
come to speak of an editors beans,
particularly his velvet beans. it is an
other story. Hon. Frank L. Mayes
editor OF The enSacola Journal, is
president of a big, virile booster club
in Pensacola which promises to &C
complish much for that city, and at a
meeting of the club a few nights ago
he made an address out of the ordi-
nary in which he extracted some great
truths from the humble velvet bean,
which are as good for Lakeland or
any other city as for Pensacola Our
limited editorial space prevents the full
reproduction of the speech but We can
give enough to present the point.
Drawing some velvet beans from his
pocket Mr.. MaYes enlarged upon their
value as a forage plant and said:
Everywhere this plant grows the soil
is that much richer for its having
grown. More than that this plant is
a thing Of beauty. II you have an old
fence. an implanted barn, or a porch
that you want shaded during the sum-
mer, this plant will cover any Of those
places and become an ornament to
your home. / hope that this club may
be as prolific in the production of good
and in the regeneration of public SEN
timent as the velvet bean is in the
production of food and beauty and in
the regeneration of the soil. I present
each member today with a half dozen
velvet beans as typical of the growth
which we expect for Pensacola / hope
each one of you will plant the beans
in your yard or garden and that as
the vines grow in length and beauty
so may your own efforts grow for the
development of this Deep Water City
A good sermon from a plain text and
an effective illustration to point the
moral and adorn the speech. Editor
Mayes was kind enough to send the
Telegram a few of these velvet beans
accompanied by a gentle admonition
to use them both for purposes of par
able and planting. We pass the par
able on to the brethren of the state
press, booster clubs and boards of
trade. and shall plant the beans them
selves in the unequaled soil Of the in
comparable county of Polk and await
the result with the calm confidence
born of our faith in Editor Mayes and
what he knows about beans.-Lake-

A Hint to Governors.

This is the time of year when
the Governors of the various
States are sure to be reminded
that Christmas is approaching,
and that a suitable Christmas
present to the man in the Peni-
Tertiary would be a pardon, or
that an acceptable gift to the
.convict's family would be a
sight of husband or father, re-
stored to liberty.
But this sort of Christmas
gift ought to be bestowed spar
Iingly. 1t is not a very impress
sive lesson on the validity of
the law, when thieves and muir
derers are given to understand
that at Christmas time the Off
Gals of a State are ready to for
get what they owe to communi-
ties rather than what they
would like to do for individuals.
Prison sentences ought to have
a somewhat definite meaning, if
they are to be worth anything
like what they cost.
But there are other ways in
which many of the State Cover
nors can make proper recogni-
ton of the season of general up
lift.
They can institute genuine
prison reforms. They can set
about abolishing corporal pun
ishment in prisons, They can re-
solve to protest against unsan-
itary conditions in prisOn-a-
gainst all forms of tortures a.
gainst unduly severe duties a.
gainst unprincipled men in COM
