HAS HE HELD OFFICE LONG ENOUGH?

This newspaper quite agreed with those residents of st.
Louis county who contend that County Auditor Odn Hden has
been office long enough That true after he had three
TERMS instance the theory that should be defeated for
holding office long enough.
The question of how long should hold office is not
and it has been varous but satisfactorily
solved that there is any basis to work FROM
Ordinarily would that how long individual should
hold office should be determined by two things the capabilities of
the and the requirements of the office.
Mr.. Haden any other similarly situated would be
foolish not to for office long the people will elect him.
He other too will be accused quite naturally
of public service extending long his has, forming
alliances and welding influences not in accord with the best

this kind is hard to judge but going the theory that the

and their interests to sufficient jeopardy.
might honoraby withdraw from Mexico at this time it
would be considerable advantage but meditation is
successful worth while it that the conditions
that have obtained for the past few that revolution
stricken republic will be quickly and that Mexico and
Mexcans will sincerely try do something for themselves that
they will maintain stable and protect the rights and
interests of Americans in Mexico.
There has been enough equivocg with the Huerta
ment The first indication of bad faith the present effort to
restore should be greeted by reaatory sufficient

Fourth Game-Boston, 8; PhiIadel-

Boston, Mass, Oct. 14.-The Boston
National league completed the most
sensational record in modern profess
sional baseball by defeating the PhiIa-
delphia Americans in the fourth and
hnal game of the worlds series at
Fenway park on Tuesday by a score
of 3 to 1.
Beginning with their rush from last
place in the senior league in the mid
die OF July the Braves have broken
traditions and records in the national
sport with speed and abandon during
the last three months. They emerged
late Tuesday afternoon champions Of
the universe, leaving a trail of start
ling surprises and upsets in their wake
which 1T will be hard to duplicate in
years to come
Last but far from the least of their
accomplishments was the overthrow
IN four consecutive games of the world
famous baseball machine of Connie
Mack, with it's 100000 infield. home
run heroes and corps of skilfully
blended veteran and youthful pitching
stars.
! TO crush completely and decisively
m oh,
resented Philadelphia in the American
league in recent years is honor enough
for any rival baseball club, but the
Braves did even better, for they estab-
lished new worlds series record by
winning In succession the four games
necessary to clinch the title.
Not since the national commission
assumed charge of these annual inter
league contests in 1905, has this feat
been achieved until Tuesday. Several
clubs have won four out of five games.
and in the early days of the Temple
cup and National league VS.. American
association, straight victories were
chronicled In 1884 Providence de-
feated the Metropolitans three
straight.
Connie Mack, the Athletics leader,
is the only manager who has won
three worlds championships and he
appears to have stumbled over the
mystic fourth, just as Managers Nc
Graw, Jennings, Chance and Mack
have all failed to win four league pen
nants in a row.
