aDlnCy, Dut this condition VIII not last
long if Larry is used so frequently. He
is human, and can stand only GER
tain amount of work.
He has not been effective in his
last three starts, In fact, he has look
ed weaker than any pitcher on the
team. And that isn't because he is
losing his natural ability; not at all.
He is simply tagged, and unable to
employ his best stuff in battling the
opposition batters.
Larry was used last Sunday against
the Giants. He was pestled soundly.
Notwithstanding this, he was sent
back yesterday after a single days
rest, and the happenings of the after
noon were tragic.
In the very first inning it could be
seen he was not right. But he kept
right at work. In every inning up to
the sixth, when the Giants gathered
for slaughter, Cheney showed signs
of distress. He realized himself that
he didn't have his usual stuff, but he
gave a grand exhibition of pitching
on nerve.
In the sixth he collapsed Every
thing he had was gone, and it was
an easy matter for the Giants to step
into the ball and hammer runs over
the pan. Larry was sent back too
soon, and allowed to stay too long,
when it was plainly apparent that he
was not effective.
There are plenty of horrible exam
pies for the Cub pilots to take les
son from. Ed Walsh is the most strik-
ing. .-....
Ed got double duty as a member of
the South Side team, and Ed had
more pitching stamina, than Cheney.
But he crumbled under the strain and
for two years was valueless in active
compensation. Now, through long
rest, he is apparently back at the
point from whence he started, but his
loss during those two years was a

much brighter. McGraw has no stout
pitcher left to pit against the Cubs
except Tesreau and Big jeff worked
Sunday.
Either Lavender of Pierce could
have been sent into the breach. They
certainly couldn't have been less eff
fective than Cheney. Even after Che
ney started, another man could have
been substituted after the first round,
when it was plainly apparent that the
West Side Moose was not himself.
Some ball teams have won PEN
nants with two pitchers, feat the
Cubs seem to be trying with Cheney
and Vaughn. But these clubs were
better ball teams than the present
West Side combination, and picked up
good proportion of games behind
the beavers of lesser ability.
The Mackmen are a good example
of this. Bender and Plank were fig
ured as Mack's only safe bets last
year, but they weren't worked to a
frayed whisper. The other fellows
bore their share of the burden.
A fair pitcher in good condition
could have won for the Cubs, backed
by the kind of batting provided yes
terday. -. 49,.
Cub defense was not strong and the
players seemed to lose heart when
Cheney was being hammered.
Wilbur Good was benched in favor
of Bates after he had whacked two
hits in three efforts. Possibly Hank
benched the right fielder for loafng
on an overthrown ball. There was
nothing wrong with his work other
wise. That was enough, however.

Safer, Schultz, Bescher and Burns.

Mr.. Bonde has gained a reputation
in his present capacity as an official
Of exceptional ability, and this repu-
tation has spread to his credit thru
out the State. He is in the right po-
sition where he is, and has much
good work yet to be done, and can be
counted upon to do it.-Willmar Ca
zette.
We are glad to note how complete
ly Mr.. Bonde's work has won over the
approval of the Gazette. We have a
distinct recollection that when the
Willmar Tribune first mentioned Mr..
Eonde for sheriff some years ago that
the Gazette was of a different opin-
ion. We are sorry, however, to note
in the above the aspersions made q,
to our motives in urging a promotion
for Mr.. Bonde. We had no candi-
date for sheriff and were pledged to
support any man whom Mr.. Bonde
would have given his endorsement.
1t was with the idea of giving Mr..
Bonde better opportunity to do
'the much good work yet to be DONE
that we wanted him in a position he
might work to better advantage. If
that is conception of selfishness
make the most of it.

The other day in a store I saw a
big double fisted man and his little
wife looking over some goods, says
the Village Deacon. She found what
she wanted, but said, II don't believe
we can afford it, Eyes we can," re-
piled the big fellow tenderly, 1--WE can
afford anything you want. You helped
me make this money and you are 60
ing to enjoy all you want just as long
as it lasts. The woman smiled and
her face lit up and she bought what
she wanted. There is a home In
which the hearthstone will always be
found aglow. The man doesn't ex.
pect the woman to carry all the fag.
gots to keep the fire burning. She
knows he has his work to do and will
ingly carries her part. That man
isn't the greatest financial success In
society nor in civic righteousness; he
did not pose as a pillar of sanctity
when I saw him tote fair with the
partner Of his joys and sorrows said
to myself: He has one big gem in his
crown anyway. That is more than
some brass collars have.-An I'm

The MEXICAN CRISIS.

The Mexican war situation has
been tense during the past week. The
seizing of Vera Cruz and blockade of
Mexican ports was another step for
ward in President Wilson's policy of
demanding the elimination Of the
Dictator Huerta and favoring the re-
establishment of constitutional gov
ernment. John Lind's mission was
no doubt to study the character and
actions of the insurgent leaders and
movement and give the president re-
liable first-hand information as to the
probability of their being able to es-
tablish stable government. 1mme-
diately on Mr.. Linds return things
commenced to happen. The seizure
of Vera Cruz was accomplished just
in time to intercept a shipload of
machine guns, rifles and ammunition
consigned to Huerta from German
manufacturers, and the hopeful situ-
alton indicating better understand
ing of the purposes Of United States
by the people of Mexico who are out
side of the territory controlled by the
dictator proves that John did a good
job. He is now one of the chief ad-
visers of the Government at Wash
of the anti-imperialistic convictions
of the administration no better man
could have been selected.
The tender of the good Offices of
Brazil, Argentine and Chill to bring
about a settlement of the troubles in
Mexico is a new phase in the Worlds
history, proving as it does that the
South American republics are begin
ming to trust people of the U. S. and
their good intentions. A settlement
of the affront given Colombia by the
virtual seizure of the Panama canal
zone will also greatly contribute to-
wards bringing about a better feel
ing.
Wilson, Bryan and Lind will yet
triumph in their efforts to bring
about peace in the distracted sister
republic without any sacrifice of the
ideals Of our republic.

COUNTY POLITICS.

So far there is no contest in sight
for the nonpartisan primary in this
county. Unless there are three or
more filings for an Office such names
will not go on the primary ballot at
all.
Attorney Charles Johnson has filed
as candidate for the Office of Coun-
ty Attorney. Mr.. Johnson has been
urged to take this step by people in
all parts of the county, we under
stand, and will make a good race for
the position.
August Lundquist, the Kandiyohi
merchant, has filed for the office of
treasurer in opposition to the present
incumbent, N. o. Nelson. August
was candidate six years ago and
came within 162 votes of getting the
nomination. There have been many
changes since that time, however,
and whether or not their trend have
been in August's favor remains to be
seen.
The Willmar Tribune has received
a letter from Hon. P. A. Gandrud, the
well-known merchant at Sunburg, in
which he states that he is being urg-
ed to make the run for senator and
may conclude to do so. We look for
his formal announcement in short
time. Mr.. Gandrud has had experience
in the House, in which he represent
ed this county in 1900, 1902 and 1904,
and this will be an advantage to him
should he be elected as senator.
