Gilmore However Says Three Of
McGraw's Men, Two Athletics
and Three Red Sox Have OF.
tered TO Do So.

NRESlDENT James A. Gilmore
threw o bomb into the ranks OF
organized baseball to-day when
he announced In Chicago that three
members Of the Giants-said to be
Marquard. Doyle and Merkle-had
asked to be taken into the new organi-
ration. The OUTLAW" leader also init.
mated that two members Of the Cham
pton Athletics. three players Of the
Boston Red Sox and two Of the CHI
cago White Sox had siEnified their
willingness to jump to the Federal
, League.
Gilmore further stated that Jake
Stahl. who managed the champion
ship Boston Red Sox team In 1912.
had asked the brooklyn clubs for q
contract. When the Brookfeds were
organised Stahl was one OF the many
the Wards tried TO get for a man
ager. At that time Stahl. engaged
In the banking business In Chicago,
refused to accept contract. lie was
sksptfcal about the success OF the
new league at that time. hut hns
since changed his mind and asked to
DO taken In. The brooklyn hackers
refused his advances and intend IL
stick to their present manager, BIZ
Bradley.
Giimore's assertion that three mem
bcrs OF the Giants were ready IL
jump brought Il quick denial from
the New York officials. President
Harry N. Hampstead, returning from
his trip to California to induce
Shafer to sign u contract, announced
at the local Offices Of the club THU
afternoon that Gilmore's statement
was all news to him.
Every member of the Giants hal

Doyle and Merkle, ] believe. would b.
the last TO desert the club. They
have been entirely satisfied with tn
salaries offered them. OF course, ! d.
not know what our players may hav'
said to Federal League officials.
any member OF the Giants goes Il
the new league II will be u plain cas-
OF contract jumping. What the New
York club would do In that even
would depend on the circumstances.
| According to report Treasurer Wal
ter Ward OF the Brooklyn Fedora
League stated that Rube MarquarS
tried 10 do business with him dowr
South. The story had Marauar'
meeting the young magnate In New
Orleans when Ward was there tryini
to convince Pitcher Seaton that n
should play in Brooklyn this year
Maruuard, 1t liz said, went to younl
Ward and asked why the Fedora
League had not sent him an offer.
Mr.. Ward in surprise told the alta
southpaw that he understood he wa
under contract to the New York Gu
and that the Wards would not tam
per with players already signed, Mar
guard Is supposed to have said tina
he had only signed Giants con
tract two days previous and that h

The falling of in attendance at the
New York and Brooklyn openings
proved conclusively that the exhibit
ton games In advance of the season
have taken all the old time glamour
away from the annual lifting OF the
lid. Those fans who had seen the
Dodgers and the Highlanders In the
practice events at Brooklyn took the
two openings as a matter OF course.
The killing OF the novelty also helped
to kill the attendance.

clare 1t likely that Connie Mack will
not use any of his veteran pitchers In

FEDERAL GRAIN INSPECTION


In the passage, recently, of the adj
ministration measure for the licensing
of cotton warehouses, Senator Nc
Cumber sees the opening wedge for
the adoption of a bill providing fed
eral inspection of grain.
The cotton bill provides for the
fixing of grades by the government.
1t is believed by the friends of fed
eral grain inspection that the repre-
sentatives from the Southern states
will join those Of the grain produc-
ing centers and pass the desired leg
islation. Both Senators McCumber
and Gronna are working in harmony
on this matter. An effort to get
wheat on the same basis as cotton
was defeated. 3
Residents of North Dakota see in
this legislation rank discrimination.
Unless the Democratic administration
sees fit to accord the courtesy of fed
eral valorization to the grain crops
as we'll as the cotton output, it must
stand the criticism of sectionalism
in it's worst sense.
Canned salmon is placed upon the
same basis in the senate bill as cot
ton. Why the Democratic admins
tration has seen fit to make pets out
of the cotton and salmon industries
would be interesting reading to us in
the wheat belt.

Senator Nelson recently made these
significant remarks in the process of

For years l have heard the banks

soon as we could and get on a gold
basis.

quickest to come here and ask us to
allow them millions Of dollars Of

THE NEW POPE.

AS was anticipated the choice of
the conclave falls on a cardinal of
Italian birth. He was born at Pegil,
in the diocese of Genoa, November
81, 1854, and was ordained a priest
December 21, 1878.
Cardinal Rampolla first noticed the
present pope and probably gave him
his first step toward the papal throne
when he took the young priest to
Madrid as his secretary.
When Rampolla returned to Rome
to become secretary Of state to the
Vatican, he brought Della Chiesa
with him, as an under secretary.
AS secretary to the secretary of
state, Cardinal Della Chiesa was
brought into notable prominence
throughout the Catholic hierarchy,
but his position was not at that time
of cardinalist rank. On the accession
Of Pope Plus X, Monsignor Della
Chiesa continued in the secretariat
until December 16, 1907, when Pope
Plus X. gave him a notable promo.
tion to the position of archbishop Of
the important see of Bologna.
In 1907 he was appointed papal
nuncio Of Madrid in succession to
Monsignor Rianoldini but this ap-
pointment was Cancelled three days
later. This incident had occurred
just before he was made archbishop
of Bologna. When Monsignor Della
Chiesa was given this post it was de-
clared in Rome that it was mainly
with the object of combating modern
religious ideas, Bologna being the
headquarters of the national Demo
cratic league, whose members advo-
Gated what is known as "Modernism"
in religion.
In January, 1914, while still at b.
logna, the present pope issued a pas
toral letter strongly condemning the
league.
For seven years he administered
the See of Bologna with notable sue
cess, until in May last, Pope Plus X.
named him among 10 members of the
hierarchy to receive the red hat.
The full title of the new pope, in
addition to Benedict XIV, will be
pope bishop of Rome and successor
of st. Peter, supreme pontiff of the
Universal church, patriarch of the
West, primate Of Italy, archbishop
and metropolitan of the Roman prov
ince, sovereign Of the temporal do
minion of the holy Roman church.
It has been ia years since the time
of the last Pope Benedict. On his
election to the papacy in 1740, Car
dinal Prospero Lambertini assumed
that title. 1t is an interesting fact
that the new pope was archbishop of
Bologna, while Pope Benedict XIV.
was born in Bologna.

r PLATFORMS.

Few political battles were ever lOst
or won upon a platform. After all,
the contest is waged about personal
tiles rather than principles since the
primary law went into effect.
Each party of the state is armed
with a platform which n out Of
every ten voters will read and which
few will remember. If the voters
took the platforms as seriously as
the trainers, the party leaders might
be more circumspect in framing them.
Under the farcical n of Sc
lecting state central committees,
the mandates Of the party as
expressed through this medium carry
only what weight the individuality of
the nominees give them, no more nor
no less. .'.o. .,..
AS the primary laws are subversive
of all party organization, they. are
gradually a%bolishing party spirit and
the next logical development will be
the abolition Of parties entirely. If
the primary law survives, the party
in state affairs at least will disappear
entirely and non-partisan elections
will be the ultimate result.
That has been the tendency in 9TH
er states where the primary law is
found in it's most advanced stages.
Many states have non-partisan cleo
ton Of judiciary, school, county, city
and Legislative officials.
The issue is directly joined now.
The maintenance of primary laws and
party development are incompatible.
Either the primary or the parties
must 60.
Before the advent of the primary
law we nominated our candidates and
placed them upon a platform in one
operation. Now our candidates are
nominated first and their platforms
written afterwards. The sequence is
ridiculous and adds nothing to the
force of the issues adopted.
As a rule, the nominees feel that
they are more or less independent
of the party platforms if the issues
r not agreeable. They realize that
they have been nominated upon their
own individual platforms, expressed
at the primaries, and that the plat
forms Matched in committees are
more or less %perfunctory.
! The Tribune is not criticizing the
platforms Of either the Republican or
Democratic party, which, in most es-
s%entials, this year are identical, but it
is criticizing a system that puts the
framing Of the platform not in the
hands of the candidates themselves,
but in a body Of men who may or
may not be in harmony with the tick

NATIONAL SPIRIT AWAKENING.

Whatever the result of the war,
Russia should emerge from the strug,
gle with more Of a national spirit
among her millions than at any time
in the history Of the nation.
The changing Of the lame of st.
Petersburg to P%etrograd is indicative
that the Russion leaders will take
every opportunity to impress upon
the masses the value of patriotism
and loyalty. 1t will be remembered
that the first conciliatory steps were
taken when the Jews were given
equal civil and political rights, and
later when Poland vas granted auton-
omy.
