They Have Banged and BeIted
All kinds of TWirIing Shown
Them in the West.
By THOMAS KIRBY.

DETROIT, Mich, July 3O.-The Ma
tionals now seem 20 have reached
a stage where their offense is by
all odds the most powerful they
have shown since spring This calcu-
lation is not based wholly upon their
achievement of yesterday, when they
garnered nine runs from fourteen drives,
tut takes into consideration the manner
in which they mauled and murdered the
best ST Louis had to offer in the mat
ter of moundsmen.
Thus far on the trip the Griffs have
finished in front in four out of five starts.
As creditable as this is il must be ad-
nlitted that ii is the hitting punch that
achieved the result. Surely the pitchers
,ould assume little credit for the
victories.

In warming up Jim Shaw looked mag
nifcent. He had terrific speed, and his
curve responded so well to his command
that his chief selected him to work
without delay. He got through the first
inning well enough, but in the second
he commenced to get wild and In the
third he was a fit subject for a straight
jacket. While the score shows that he
gave but two bases on balls and was
hit twice, he was constantly cramming
himself into jams, and finally Giihlth

RICH lAWBREAkERS A MENACE
TO SOCIAL ORDER.

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
The blatant demagogues who preach
to working people the gospel of hatred
against success are sowing the seeds
OF mischief, and the police are right in
taking harsh for their sup
preston whenever they transcend the
iegltlmate limits of free speech. Yet
there can be no permanent remedy for
this form OF mischievous trouble
making until the reproach shall be re-
moved from our courts which send a
man to Jail for the theft OF a loaf of
bread and ignore the crime of him who
'forgets' or mislays $1,000, 900 belong
ing to corporation or despoils a great
property for the profit of a few UNI
scrupulous directors.
Until guilt is made PERSONAL" for the
rich corporation manager as mex
orably as for the poor devil of a law
breaker there will be basis for the COM
plants of a~gitators and fomenters of
social discomfort to justify them in the
eyes of the untkinking. Until arbitrary

ais agents Is denounced just as I'M
sparingly as is h attempted tyranny
IF the labor %unionist who seeks to
overthrow the liberty of labor the plea
Tor observance of the laws will fall
Upon deaf ears.
In the final results one form OF
wrongdoing is as evil as another. but
when to such %unsocial acts is added
he power to evade the legal con-
sequences, to secure immunity from
punishment, the effect is to deepen dis
content and reinforce the weapons of
he enemies OF social order.
All of us. and especially those who
enjoy the worlds riches and oppprtuni-
les. must heed the injunction against
seeking to remove the mote in a

Amend tho Law.
From the clinton Hera

FROM the CllntOn Herald.
All over Iowa, one OF the chief causes
of internal discussions in cities is the
question of improvements, chiefly paw
ing and sewers.
Why is it that everyone is in favor
OF improvements, but that over half of
the property owners protest against
paying their share of the cost? Is it
"tightness," or is II some provision in
the law which makes payment for inn
provements u burden on the average
citizen?
Many people condemn those who pro-
test, without considering tina they
may have valid grounds for objection,
and h a these grounds may be re-
moved.
Under the Iowa law. improvements
are paid for in seven yearly INSTALL
mcnts. The only necessity, governing
the umb or installments. is tina the
Improvement shall be paid for during
us period of use. Experience shows
that paving and sewers last from 25 to
30 years. hen issue 20 year bonds, in
stead Of seven year.
If the next legislature will amend
he law, m distribute the cost of
improvements over a period of years
corresponding to the benefits deriv-
ed. opposition to paving and sewers
will disappear.
The only reason why seven years
should have been chosen is that
