The Richmond climax. (Richmond, Ky.) 1897-1914, 1914-09-16

President Wilson has decided to make
no speeches this fall, but to remain on
the job," as he puts it. There is no
need of speeches from him. His acts
speak for him louder than words and
tell a glorious story.
The Richmond climax. (Richmond, Ky.) 1897-1914, 1914-09-16

Only 122 saloons in Lexington paid IL
cense this year against 1876 last year and
according to an ordinance license once
allowed to lapse or is revoked it cannot
be issued again. This has cut out near
ly 30 saloons in the last few years and
may result in their final elimination,
even though the prohibitionists fail to
accomplish it.

When the European war broke out the
Democratic tariff law was demonstrate
ing the wisdom OF its passage and show
that the Democrats were faithful to
their platform promises. For their faith
fulness and almost two years of contnu-
Gus service at Washington the members,
most of whom are candidates for re-
election, eminently deserve the support
of their party, and their election is most
important, because, if a Republican ma
jority is chosen, the tariff agitation and
the consequent unsettling of business
will begin again and bill probably pass
ed-if the discordant mob can agree on
one-that will upset the country and
make the good work of the Democrats
futile.
In Kentucky the Republicans have put
up candidates in every district but in
the Sixth and will try to make inroads
on the Democratic delegation, but there
is little danger that the delegation oil
ten Democrats will be changed while
there is a chance of gaining one.
In this district Congressman Helm is
opposed by clever, doubtless, but ar
unknown Republican from Harrodsburg
and while there is little prospect that he
can defeat the Tall Sycamore of the
St. Asaph." it is best in politics never
to take anything for granted. Mr.. Helm
won his nomination without opposition
He ought to be elected by practically
unanimous vote.

To raise the S1O0, 600. 600 loss to the
Government in custom receipts, on ac-
count of the European war, the House
Committee on Ways and Means has pre-
pared bill to tax rail and water freights
3 cents and put an additional tax on
beer and wines. 1t is claimed that this
will raise the necessary amount without
any one feeling it much, but there is
much objection to the tax on freights
and it is said that it will be necessary
for the President to make an especial ap
peal TO Congress in order to obtain its
passage Ii does look like luxuries and
not freight bills might have been made
to bear the burden of this new taxa.

ODD RECORD By LAJoIE.
Only Batter Intentionally Past With
Bases Full.

II is altogether probable that nc
batsman, not even Uncle Arson. ever
drew more intentional passes than Ma
poleon Lajoie, he whose star seems
coming to it's final fall at Cleveland
and IL is also more than probable that
joie alone must stand forever as the
one and only batter who ever received
walk, under direct command, when
the sacks were full and that pass fore
ed in a run.
This happening took place at the old
White Sox arena, in Chicago during
the time when Griffith ruled the Sox.
The Sox swung into the final innings
with a big fat lead: Cleveland rallied
desperately In the ninth, and finally
got the hassocks crowded. with Ma
poleon coming up. and two down.
Nap was hitting 'em in those days
and what he hit, staid hit. One run
made little difference, so figured Griff,
for the White Sox had three runs to
the good. But whenever Lajoic landed
full force the ball went on a protract-
ed vacation; II he soaked the pill at
all he'd just about drive in the three
needed for a tie.
And so the Little Fox took the
chance: He had four wide ones thrown
to Napoleon. forcing in run, and then
the next man raised an easy fly.
Many a run has been forced in with
full bases because the pitcher couldn't
get them over, but was there ever an
other case where run was forced in
under deliberate orders rather than
the mighty swing OF such slugger as
Lajoie?

Old Bill Phelon OF Cincinnati has a
rich fund OF humor and is never fun
nier than when he writes with serious
intent. Here is one he put over con-
cerning the brutal manner in which
Connie Mack caught Eddie Collins,
waylaid him and forced him to accept
contract calling for higher salary:
After the Hal Chase case so the in
side story goes, Mack went right to his
star performer Eddie" said Connie,
Il will be on the level with you. Your
contract with me-yes the new con-
tract you signed for me this spring-is
shot TO pieces. It's worthless, II you
wish to jump 1t. IL you wish to 20.
I'll not hamper you, nor will force
you to 20 dishonorably. Tear your
contract in two. You are free agent"
Mr. Mack" returned the player,
you found me and1you made me what
am today. Your contract suits me.
am satisfied with my position and the
money you have given me. won't
tear up the paper"
Then" said Connie Mack, "Tll give
you a new contract, better money, bet
ter terms for both OF us. Give me the
old one" -sr
Il don't want your money. ] don't
want your new contract"
Eddie, you little chump, give me
that paper!"
Mr.. Mack, you get away from me.
won't accept another nickel from
you!"
See here, youngster, IL you don't
come across with that worthless paper
in ten seconds I'll see your wife. and
we'll see how long she will stand for
your refusing money!"
This broadside was too much. Col
lins surrendered the old paper, and
then and there signed up new three
year document
One wonders IL there were no broth
ers OF the Ballplayers fraternity
around who heard Eddie scream and
rushed to his defense before the Brutal
McGillicuddy forced this increase in
salary upon him. What are our young
ballplayers to do when beset by such
financial Satyrs as Connie Mack. fore
ing their unwelcome gold upon them.
This Is, indeed, a terrible age.
