BASEBALL NEWS.
WOWlsb0rO 8; ThurmOnt 3.

The Woodsboro baseball club came to
Thurmont last Thursday and succeeded
in taking game home with them, this
being the first successful attempt in four
trials.
To explain why this occurred, we would
say that Ed. Creeger was on the sick list,
and Root was expected to pitch Saturday
morning at Emmtsburg. Stoner, who
has not pitched for several years, was
put in the box Unexpectedly and due to
wildness seven runs were piled up by the
visitors in the second inning. Leo GREGG
err was then put in and held the visitors
to onerun for the remainder of the game.
Thurmont could not get on the proper
kind of go, and the game went to
Woodsboro. The score:
Thurmont .........l 90 90 l 0-3

Games at EmmitSburg.

Last Saturday two games of ball were
played at Emmitsburg, the first being
called in the morning, the Fairfield, Pa,
team being the visitors
Last week it was announced that the
Thurmont club would play the morning
game, but plans for some reason were
changed at late hour.
The Fairfield boys put up poor game,
and at the end of four innings the score
was IL to 0 in favor of Emmitsburg.
This was near the noon hour and but one
more inning was played, the score re-
naming the same.
A bad accident befell Fairfield's first
baseman during the game. He was run
ming for one of his team mates and in
going to second base got mixedup with
his opponent at second and after rolling
over several times found that the
bone in his left leg near the ankle was
broken. A physician in Emmitsburg at
tended him.
The game during the afternoon was
much better than that in the morning.
Taneytown has good team but several
errors proved costly. The score of this
game was, Emmitsburg 8, Taneytown s..

MACON'S RATES

ATLANTA s
Despite Increase of 65 Per Cent
on Lights, Central City Has
the Advantage,

The Georgia Railroad Commission,
in authorizing an increase in electric
light and power rates in Macon, sets
forth figures and opinions OF decided
interest to Atlanta on the one hand
and to the State-at large on the other
The figures quoted in Macon's new
rate sheet show that, Notwithstanding
the fact that the Macon company is
authorized to raise its present rates
some 65 per cent, the rates enjoyed

rates charged in Atlanta. particularly
for power.
Rate Wars Deplored,
The commission, in reviewing the
History of the Macon electric compa

granting franchises iudisCriminatelN
ia competing companies in the matter
of public utilities. when it is evident
that such granting can operate only
to precipitate throat cutting rate

The petition to raise the rates of
the Macon Railway AMI Power Com

tial.
The new rates authorized for Ma

cents per hour for consumption above

I AW JAMES B. NEVN K>tJ

This is sad world, shipmates.
Ii there is sadder world, most
of us wot not of the same.
There came to Sidelight's sanctum
sanctorum Tuesday morning bright
and early, two Georgans, and one
accused Sidelights of assault with in
tent to murder Senator Hoke Smith,
whereas the other accused Sidelights
of assault with intent to murder Gov
ernor John NJ Slaton.
1t is probable that both of these
well-disposed but misguided persons
overrate the prowess of SideIights to
murder anybody politically. Certain
ly they credit him with an amazingly
variegated assortment of malice.
If Sidelights murdered either the
one of the other politically, or both,
he would put himself out Of business
for there then would be nothing
worth while writing about, perhaps
It is neither the business nor the
purpose of this particular engine of
uplift to kill off statesmen, real or
near
They are the fuel wherewith is gen
Grated the steam that keeps Side
lights from Pickering out entirely
which would be an immediate trag-
edy, if not matter of State wide re-
greet
Still, SO long as there are appearing
in this column certain comments and
near conclusions, the which neither
tho Smith he 81, 10 lie
ing to O. X, Sidelights feels that he
is keeping reasonably in the middle
of the road, and hence should worry!
Apparently, Tom" Hardwick is
more or less spelling for a fight"
He is very, very near to Senator Holle
Smith-nesrer, Of course. than any
other Georgian. 1t isn't high treason
to state that-it is a fact of notoriety
Mr.. Hardwick rarely, il ever, takes
political step without the Senator's
advice having been previously OBJ
tanned. And who blames him for
that?
When. therefore, divers and sundry
Georgians conclude that the Hard
wick announcement for Senator
Bacon's uneXpired term sounded the
first gun in a big and significant fac
tional fight in Georgia. the cause
apparently justifies the effect entire
ly. Or the other way around, if it
suits you better.
Maybe, however, Governor Slaton
is not going to run for Senator
Bacon's uneXpired term. Maybe he
will undertake to wrest Senator
Smiths toga from him.
This course would be lese majestic
in one direction and hot stuff" in the
other to be sure!
1t will not do for the Snithites to
assume for sure that they have a
proscriptive right to the senior SEN
atorship, nor will it do for the Sla-
tonites to assume that the Governor
is to have the junior Senatorship
without protest.
If Senator Smith could he re- elect
ed without opposition and Governor
Slaton could have the Bacon uneX-
PRED term without opposition, that
would be fine, wouldn't it?
Does any sane man believe how
ever, that the one is to be unopposed
and the other fought?
Maybe some people believe that
but not Sidelights.

But, it having been generally as
sumed that Governor Slaton would
stand for Senator Bacons unexpired
term, does anybody believe that Con-
gresham Hardwick will be permit
ted to oppose him. and everybody
keep hands off the senior Senator
ship?
What is the logic of the situation?
Here are two leaders of contending
factions. Senator Smith stands for
the things in Georgia politics that
Governor Slaton doesn't
Before the death of Senator Bacon,
there was good deal 81 et-us- have
peace talk in Georgia II was ar
gued that the thing to do was to let
Senator Smith be re- elected to the
Senate and Governor Slaton be re-
elected to the Governorship and
then, after while, Slaton might have

The Smithitcs can not hold fast to

Wherefore. if a scribe sees a storm
