 All hail.
 Birmingham, Alabamai All baili,
 real city of American life and
 Ainerican ldeals-American push
 punch, enterprise and generous impulse
 American beauty--and American beau-

 and wondrous natural resource. The
 printed page well could be filled and filled well with the record of your phe
 nomenal achievements, your hospita ble spirit--But who lives who could, do them justice? Many have tried, but all have failed-And always are going to fail-and rejoice in their own failure.
 But away from broad avenues of busi-
 ness effort and commercial emulation,
 aside from your incomparable hospital ity Of hotel, club and private home, your delightful welcome and thought for the stranger in your midst you are blessed in one tremendous respect above all others on earth; you can
 make iron and steel cheaper and as good as any spot on which the sun | shines. All you ask is a square deal. u friendly attitude from your own gov | ernment and reasonable help to reach l the markets of the world. Given that and all peoples from everywhere will be forwarding their mail and sending
 their bank checks to Birmingham, Ala bama.
 And none to envy your joy and pros- perity. While the members of the American Iron and Steel institute-es- pecially those whose hearts you have
 taken captive within the past few days will be glad and ready to shout your praise, to rejoice with you and to note with the passing time that you are | winning-that you have won. When that hour comes. when every mine, fur
 mace and mill are fulfilling their prop CT function--doing a continuous per | formance-and your beautiful southern sky is being decorated with the bea- con lights of a great prosperity, send ing to the high heavens your search light glare, your worldwide message from man-made celestial orbs of light blazing on hill and valley-telling all | civilization you are prepared to servo and do your share-then shall we all hold our heads more proudly and lit- | tie higher smile more happily and con- fidently-stand shoulder to shoulder while we shout and shout again and again-all hail.

Now and then we hear talk of a spe- cial effort on the part of the republicans to break up the democratic solidity of the south-of the real south-but nothing comes of it." said R. J. Easley of Wash ington, D. C.

Sporting Editor, star.BuIletin,

3OpOENlllSa K1tlAbOIB soIdI-buli6IlH,
Dear Sir 1t now becomes my
painful duty to appeal TO you again
for space enough in your valuable
paper to accommodate my adversary
whom selects for his cognomen,
believe. "Mr. Fair Play" TO a re-
spond. And in consequence thereof,
| must say in part, that Mr.. Fair
Play certainly must have misinter-
preted a greater part of my article,
than he Interpreted. In the first
place he accuses me of claiming
twenty consecutive games. j will
admit that=I might have stated that
they, won twenty straight; but sup
pose that | did, If ban team is ca
pable of taking twenty games out of
twenty-one. played, that is sufficient
to prove their superiority as a ball
team just as much as though they
were consecutive, and | am quite
sure that the base ball followers will
very readily agree with me on this
matter
But still say, that the team in it's
recent games, did not play up to it's
ability, on account of friction be-
I" NISA bAS A411AoSSA anu lAC lCdtLl.
And when Mr.. Fair Play" says, that
as a team, the Coast Defence is a lit
tie ahead of the 25th Infantry team,
that statement within itself is thor
oughly adequate of fulfilling its mis-
sion, that of exposing his baseball
knowledge, which it does And he
also, tells a bare face lie, when he
asserts, that the Coast Defence has
put up better games in Honolulu than
has the 18th team. And everything
borne out in my article is based on
facts. In view of the fact that my
article aroused this fan, is true to
the old saying, that notwithstanding
the fact, that the truth is mighty
and will prevail. it at times hurts,
and is in this instance, very piercing.
The Roman Empire, at one time,
held its rank among the leading ma
tions Of the world, and a brighter
star never shonG than did this great
nation, but the direct cause Of this
mighty nation being numbered with
the oblivion today. is the "truth"; it
revealed to the Peep all things; a
nation too wicked tUaAOuTish, ergo, it
passed.
And still hold that the team that
have figured. in recent games was not
the regular team. did not intend
for my article to arouse any ill-feel-
ings at all. whatever, but if il did,
why, | don't care: it matters not to
me. And about us having SO many
men on the bench in uniform. that it
was 4 hard matter to tell who was
a member OF the rroimcntal team.
why, that was our gOOd fortune. AMI
furthermore. it shouldn't concern MIR.
Fair Play. if we had a hundred. Ho
also accuses me Of saying that We
defeated the 2nd infantry which IS
false. But did say, that We were
defeated by the 2nd Infantry, by a
nine to nothing sccrc, But that our
regular lineup diu not play in this
game. which Is true.
And that as TOT the 23th ball team
set;ijn- theiY internal troubles,
shouldn't think tua: this should con
Germ Mr. Fair Play" in tho least.
And furthermore, If the 18th ball
team wins 4 same, it's all right. and
if they lose i matters n2;. Just as
long a. they play a clean game Of
ball.
| don't intend to try and over rate

new SHAMROCK
FREAK BOAT

That the new Shamrock. with
which Sir Thomas Upton Will try
this summer to lift the Americas
cup, will be very freakish racing
craft is conceded by the British
yachting experts. Comment on the
challenger's chances, as seen from
the other side of the water, are print
ed in the London Times, of recent
date, as follows: s. =
Shamrock " will be 75-footer,
and the yachts from, which the de-
fender will be. selected are being
built to the same rating The de-
tenders have some latitude, however,
since, while Shamrock " will not be
permitted to exceed Is feet by the
smallest fraction, the defending YES
that rating. This in itself is a very
much greater advantage to the defen-
ders than it may appear to any one
not intimately acquainted with the
sport OF yachting. 1t cannot be sup
posed that Mr. Nicholson is going to
give his design away thus early. The
lead keel has been computed at vari-
Gus weights ranging up to so tons.
For all we know it might be this or
even more, but probably it is much
under that.
The new challenger will without
doubt be as extreme a type of boat
as the rule will permit. Mr.. Nichol-
son has during the past two, years
shown us what he can do under tho
European rating rule with such yes.
sells as Istria, Pamela and Paula III,
15-meter cutters, which have been
described as freaks, and we may con.
sequently look forward to seeing a
boat Of abnormal proportions in
Shamrock ", built as she is with
one specific object in view.
Although the conditions, now ap-
pear altogether more sensible, It Is
difficult to see that the challenger is
in more advantageous circumstances
than formerly, as our designer is
called upon. to build to an alien rule
of which American designers have
had some seven years experience: "
Whatever the design of the hull,
we may look for something abnormal
in the matter of sail spread. With
tendency towards ever-increasing
canvas, we may expect the new ehal-
longer to hoist a spread of canvas
never dreamed of for vessel of this
size by sailors of a generation ago.
Shamrock " will probably be
launched in April, and will be ready
TO begin her sailing trials in May.
For her preliminary tuning up before
crossing the Atlantic she wilIfhaye
the existing Shamrock as trial horse
Mr.. W. p. Burton, who is going to
sail Shamrock ", will be in general
charge of arrangements, and Sham.
rock will have as skipper Gould, who
sailed the Soper-designed schooner
for Mr. Max GuiIleaume. Nothing
definite has yet been fixed in regard
to these preliminary trials, but Sir
I. Thomas Upton has accepted the in
vitation of the mayor and regatta
committee of Torquay to sail some
Of the tests there. Prizes will be
offered for the races in Torbay, and
it is proposed to appoint a small sail
ing committee locally to carry on.

The first regular pIa,..,~ .-J-he
All-Service baseball team was held
yesterday at the Athletic park,
Wednesdays having been assigned to
the team by the park management for
its exclusive use. The managers,
Bieutenants O'Hara and Lyman. pro-
pose TO get their men together regu-
larry and constantly and work out the
final lineup by the weeding-out proc
ess. The loss to the team by Kicks
departure will be satisfactorily filled
by playing Gramith back of the plate;
and in addition Lieutenant Lyman has
urlearthed Ringland, a former catcher
for the Elks' team of Honolulu, and
now serving in Company E, Signal
Corps. McCue of the End Infantry, an
excellent catcher, is also on hand and
available but will probably be used
only when Kelly, his company mate,
goes in the box. Gramith and McCue
can both out-hit Kick and are both
excellent men on the bases. While it
is a bit early for prophecy, perhaps.
still IL may be yentured that in the
next game with Sammy Hops crew
the All-Service people will set off
few fireworks themselves and the
