This year the athletes are hitting to-

In punches they climb the opposing
pitchers for runs When there are no
budding runs on the bases they do
not hit.
In three innings yesterday they
scored all their runs, getting them
in two clusters of two and one of
three. Except in these big innings
only two hits were made. That GER
tainly proves the Hose are not vast

Cleveland errors assisted mater

Sox hits were combined with the
miscues.
Reb Russell had his finger injured
by a liner in the second and gave
way to jim Scott. To the latter gent
goes the real credit for banking the
Maps. Not..a runner reached third

BARRIERS

An appeal to all unionists and sym
pathizers of California to work and vote
for the bill providing for one days rest
in seven for BARRIERS, which will be de-
cided at the November election, has
been issued. The appeal says:
at will give California six-day law,
for which organized labor has always
stood. 1t means shortening of the
hours of labor each week and employ
ment for a larger number of men. The
proposed law does not limit the number
of hours during the six work days, but
protects the right of every employe to
rest one day in seven. No man wants to
work all the time. Constant daily en-
ployment destroys ones health, shortens
life, robs one of home and social priv
ileges and deprives workers of the real
enjoyment of life. When the BARRIERS
Unions adopted the rule to close on Sun
day there resulted large reduction in
the sick benefits paid to their members
1t is claimed by physicians that seven
day toilcrs die ten years younger than
six-day laborers. This bill is life
protector"

BAKERS

j. 4. Holt of Pueblo left Monday for
Milwaukee, where he will be the only
Colorado delegate at the annual conven-
tion OF the Bakery and Confectionery
Workers Union of America.
Bakers in Baltimore are jubilant over
their success in securing a foothold af-
ter a years hard organization work.
They have succeeded in unionizing the
plant of the Chesapeake Baking Com
pany, which agrees to employ only mem
bers of the Bakers Union in the future.
The lockedout bakers of Springfield,
ILL.,, are surprising their employers by
the resistance offered. Four large bake
shops have been opened in various sec
tions OF the city by the victimized work
ers, whose officers have organized many
locals in the vicinity OF Springfield and
which include the town OF Shelbyviile,
Tower Hill, Auburn, Girard, Virden,
and Virginia. One of the largest baker
les in Central Illinois-at Taylorville-
has also been unionized.
A bona fide Bakers Union is making
rapid progress in Toronto, Canada, and
the independent organization, which has
done much to divide and discourage
these craftsmen, is dwindling in power,
as its members realize their helplessness
in case OF trouble.

BEWARE OF FALSE
CHIEFS In STRIKES
Frances N. Noel Warns Labor
Against MiSleaderS
Testifyine Before Industrial Commis-
sion Of Suspicion That Ulterior In
fluences Caused Dynamitine

1t is no easy thing to keep the ranks
of labor clear of false leaders, Mrs.
Frances N. Noel of the Women's Trade
Union Council, told the federal indus
trial relations committee at the hearing
in Los Angeles. She declared that de-
tectives sometimes slipped into leader
ships and inasmuch as they were
smooth chaps it took time to rout
them.
In. that connection the witness de.
clared that the leaders of the Industrial
Workers of the World in the recent
Akron tOhio) rubber industry strike
were operatives of detective agency,
and she also brought up the question of
how it came about that the Los Angeles
Times was dynamited three days before
labor demonstration was to be held
here in behalf of the striking metal
workers.
Mrs. Noel had previously intimated
that she was suspicious as to the influ-
ence which caused the setting of the
bomb at that particular time.
Big Interests Active.
Not until we know what has become
of McMonigal will we agree what has
happened in the Las Angeles Times"
she said.
Big interests, Mrs. Noel insisted, have
been active in changing the personnel
of some institutions of learning in Los
Angeles. She averred that instructors
who have attacked the government have
been discharged.
Mrs. Noel suggested that the govern
ment contract with newspapers for Civ
ing publicity TO its important acts In
that way, she said, the public would
be able to get official statements of
government affairs which would be
biased in no way. Copies Of the records
of the present inquiry should be dis
tributed among schools and Libraries, she
declared.
Establishment Of universal eight hour
law. old-age pensions, sick and health
benefit funds and chambers OF labor
were among the witness suggestions.
Charge $50 for Outfits.
Before a man can become conduc-
tor or a motorman on the lines Of the
Las Angeles street railway he must ex-
pend about $50 for an outfit and incl
dentals and serve from eight to twenty
one days apprenticeship without pay.
After that he gets 25 cents an hour
during the first year of his service and
a cent more per hour each year until
he reaches 30 cents. This information
was elected from G. ]. Kuhrts and AL
den d. Merrihew, chief engineer and as
sistent, respectively. of the lines.
Among the fees charged employees are
SO cents month for hospital service
and so cents for a photograph. Under
cross-questioning by Commissioner Gar
retson, Merrihew admitted that the pho
tographs were sometimes used TO identi-
fy men who, after being discharged from
the service. attempt to re-cntcr it un-
der fictitious names.
Merrihew said the company preferred
non-union employees. The only strike
it ever has had in its operating depart
ment was in 1908. II lasted Is min
utes and the employees lost.

SAYS GREAT PROSPERITY is NEAR

United States Senator Owen of Okla
homa told the Illinois State Bankers
Association that the European war gives
the United States opportunity of becom-
ing the greatest financial center of the
world His declaration was concurred in
by Arthur B. Reynolds, president of the
American Bankers Association. "The
United States is entering upon the
greatest era of general prosperity that
has ever been known" Owen said. "It
will be an era that will not be interrupt.

General Rains Break Drouth.

The rainfall, commencing a. bout 4 o'clock Monday morning, was general in it's nature and all indications point to break ing of the long drouth. The kind of rain enjoyed was the very best that could have re- lieved the situation, falling slowly in repeated showers.
 With late frost Jackson county may yet produce a fair crop of cotton, considering the reduced acreage, poor stands and small growth in many DOT tions of the county.
 The corn, of which there is not much, however, is coming out, and may now make reas- enable yield. A sufficient rain fall to allow the proper break ing up of the soil, would proba- bly result in much clover, alfal- ia and rye being planted by the farmers who are short of feed for their stock as the result of a corn failure and who can hard ly count upon cotton as a re- suit of the European war to bring sufficient price to enable them to buy stock feed from the proceeds of the sale of their cotton.
