HIVE YOU stopped to think about
II the sad fix the Athletics are in this
season? Well. if you haven't just
pipe what Ira Thomas, the teams cap
tain. says and then shed a few bitter
tears for the poor MaCkmen. Thomas
sOlemnly declares: We haven't any
youngsters who are likely to show as
stars this year.
Pretty tough. isn't it? All the other
teams have developed enough stars
to stock a perfectly we'll regulated
heaven and the Athletics are left flat
on their backs with the same old out
tit they had last year. Tough shedding
when a team has to worry along with
a Frank Baker at third, Jack" Bar
ry at short, an Eddie" Collins at
second and "Stuffy" McInnis at first.
Hard lines when the outfield consists
only of a "Rube" Oldring, an Amos
Strunk and an Eddie" Murphy. A
natural handicap to have as pitchers
merely a Chief" Bender. an Eddie"
Plank. Joe" Bush, with a back
ground of Houck and Brown tint.
Pity the poor Athletics! Try as they
may this year. the odds are all against
the team finishing better than first.
Sad. or, very; overwhelmingly pitiful,

He pointed out that the resolution only requested in- formation it was deemed advisable to give.

DEMOCRATS OBJECT TO PRIMARY PLANK
Indiana Delegates Accept It But
 Put Blame on Shively.

Ind1anapolis, March 1s-After an all night, session of the resolutions committee, platform for the consid- eration of the Democratic state con- vention which met here today was adopted. It includes a plank, propos- ed by United States Senator B. F. ShiveIy, placing the party on record as fayoring a statewide primary law. The vote on the plank was seven to six After the platform had been completed members of the committee expressed resentment over the actions of Senators ShIvely and Kern and me nabers of Congress who appeared before the committee and urged the adoption of the primary plank.
 Mayor Joseph E. Bell, of Indiana polls, chairman of the committee, de- c1ared only one out of thirteen mem be1s of the committee favored the primary feature and that it had been adopted only after the Senators and Congressn1en had ma de a plea, that. if such a plank were not included, it would be against President Wilson's policies. Speaking for the committed, the committee had expressed their opinion that President Wilson and Secretary Bryan had not written the letters indorsIng the statewide pri- mary to Senator Kern voluntarily but had been asked to do SO
 The primary plank as adopted by the committee declares for a state- wide primary law for nomination for all offices but saves the state con- ventfon for counsel, organization and declaration of party principles
 After reviewing the administration s work on the tariff and currency laws and stating that the President is now in a position to press his antitrust IegisIation, Governor RaIston declared his emphatic support of the Presi- dent's s Mexican policy.
