NO HONEST MEN?

Mr.. A. j. Jennings, ex-train
robber and convict, but now llv-
ing respectable life as lawyer
in Oklahoma, has determined to
seek the democratic nomination
for governor. He bases his can
didacy on the position that he IS
an eyil-doer who was caught,
punished and reformed, while he
seems to intimate that all other
candidates are "men who wore
the best clothes and stood high
in society robbing the people
right and left, and not getting
caught or being punished. " His
Platform seems to be expressed
N the following: "But, tell me,
what is the difference between
the man who holds up train at
the point of a gun and he who
loots the treasury of a state? The
only difference | can see IS that
the train robber is at least honest
in acknowledging his character,
while the spokesman leads a dou-
bic life
Rather singularly the New
York Tribune expresses a support
Of that candidacy on the ground
of its Outspokenness and honesty.
The consideration is a valid one
provided it can be shown that al
the other men are men conceal
ing dishonest and criminal acts
under an exterior Of respectable
ity. If it be true that the choice
must be between Jennings and
thief who has kept up the out
ward seeming of virtue, we would
support Jennings.
But is it true, asks the Pitts
burg Dispatch, that in the prob
able 100000 Of the Oklahoma
population the choice must be be-
tween a reformed train-robber
and pardoned convict on one side
and a criminal hypocrite who
has kept out of Jail on the 9th
err? Has Oklahoma no honest
and upright men in its citizen
ship? 1t seems to us that Mr..
Jennings statement of the situa-
ton puts the population of Okla
homa in a very peculiar position.
We are inclined to believe that
they must have some honest men
who have stayed decently re
spectacle throughout their adult
years.-Beaumont Enterprise.

sions and he held the Lookouts help less on his hip. Harbin has all of the ear-marks of capable youngster and it appears al if he will be able to pitch winning ball for Moley this year.
 Unappreciated this year is the rec ord made of late by the Philadelphia club in the American league. In the past fans all over the circuit have fiocked to the various league parks when Con lie Mack and his contingent were billed to appear. This spring, however, things are different and the thrice champion Athletics are playing to small and distinterested crowds. Even Quaker City fans are not giv-| ing the American league champions a glad hand and followers of base ball are at loss for the reason. If the Athletics were running away from the other teams there would be reason for the diminished crowds. but they are now in the thick of the fight and are having to battle stren- uously for every foot of advantage. and by all rules of the game the crowds should be larger than ever before.
 The failure of the Senators to run true to form is causing Manager Grif- filth and Washington fans in general an extra amount of worry this spring. Previous to the opening gong, the Washington club was picked as the most dangerous opponent to the fAth- letics for the championship, but as yet they have not displayed any stell- ar form and fans in the national capital are keenly disappointed. Grif- fifth is unable to account for the Ma tionals not playing hi their stride and is desperately shaking up his team in an effort to bring change in luck.

Before the season commenced the Birmingham team was assigned low berth and looked upon with little respect by league scr1bes. Since then the Barons have shot their bolts when least. expected and have taught the high flying Pelicans and Lookouts not to un- derestimate their strength In the future Against the weaker teams in the league, especially Mobile, the local players have had little success, but when the Pelicans and Lookouts were their opponents the Moleyites have shown surpris- ing strength.
 The showing made by the Bar ons of late has attracted the at tention of Dixie scribes and now, instead of alluding to them as weddings, they are asserting that Molesworth has gathered together a formidable looking aggregation
 Chattanooga scribes are begin ming to look upon the Barons as a possible pennant contender and ss.& fA how either New Orleans or Att lanta have anything on Moles- worth's crew"
 An excerpt from one of the Chattanooga papers dealing on the local team, headed "Barons Look Strong" follows:
 Aside from the fact that the Lookouts were due for slump at Birmingham the fact must not be overlooked, either. that the club. From this angle it is diff ficult 10 see where either New Or leans or Atlanta have anything upon Molesworths crew.
 Tn Knisely, Moley has undoubt- edly one of the most dangerous sluggers in the league. Stewart is a wonderful base runner and the Baron outfield, as a whole, is a jam-up outfit.
 "The Birmingham innerworks is, also, no slouch affair. Mcdonald Is a hard hitter and a great fielder, and the remaining mem- bers of the inside breastworks, while light with the willow, are great on the defense. Dilger is a good. heady catcher and a dan gerous lsticker. Molesworths pitchers as a whole are as good as any in the league. The Look outs have no license to do better than break even with the Barons at Rickwoo Field upon their first invasion"
 No more trying test could have been found for young pitcher than Friday afternoon in the tenth, eleventh and twelfth rounds of the drawn battle between the Barons and Lookouts. The heavy end of the visiting batting order was up, while in one inning the wrecking brigade, Ems, Balenti and Jacobson, were registered for trials at the plate. Molesworth sent in young Harbin to succeed Johnson on the mound, after he had been taken from the game to allow a pinch hitter to bat, and the situation was a trying one, indeed, especially for a young ster. This was the first real test that Harbin has had to undergo since he donned Baron uniform and he came through with colors flying. Only nine men faced him in the three extra ses-
