SUCCESS DEPENDS ON WORK
Honesty Of Umpire 10 Essential and
Losing Temper Means Hes Gone,
Says William KLEIN.

IAN umpire's success depends en-
tirely upon his integrity" says vii.
liam Klein. "He Is like q young player
breaking into fast company. He must
do his level best In order to prove his
value and thereby command as much
salary as possible. II an umpire loses
his temper and tries to give a team
the worst Of 1t he Ia gone. 1t was
particularly gratifying to me when
President Johnson OF the American
league, praised me for my work In the
worlds series, yet ! umpired those
games with as much care as II they
had been regular National league
championship contests.
"The umpire's lot is not always
pleasant and many OF us are blamed
unjustly. But after that decision by
Connolly In the second game of the
worlds series, which deprived the Ath.
letics of victory, ! believe the public
realizes that umpires are honest. Con.
molly called Strunk out at the plate
just as he saw the play. He could
have declared Strunk safe without
raising just howl of protest from
anyone. But unmindful of the fact
that he was employed by the Ameri.
can league, he made a ruling that
proved his fairness. All umpires make
mistakes, but umpires are only hu.
man."
Billy Evans has admitted frequently
that he gave decision In the series
between the Giants and the New York
Americans In 1910 that probably de,
prived the latter of victory. He called
Jack knight out at first base and pre-.
vented two men from scoring. Yet,

Mike Mowrey.

In 1905 he played with the Savannah
South Atlantic league team, being
drafted In the fall by Cincinnati and
turned over to the Baltimore club. He
was with Baltimore during the season
of 1906 until recalled by Cincinnati
before the close OF the season. Mike
took part In II games with the Reds
before the season closed and had a
batting average Of 1921. He was q
member of the Reds until 1909, when
he was traded to st. Louis, and last
year he went to Pittsburgh. Mowrey
has never been able to bat in the
300 class since his first season In the
big leagues, but he is a clever in.
fielder and a great all.around hustler.

Notes About Men and Their Doinfs in
the Two Great Fields of National
Pastime.

THE 1916 Republican Club" Is the
latest applicant for harmony" It
has issued statement signed by Ed.
ward J. Brundage, president; Frank I.
Bennett. John +. Smulski. Clyde l..
Day. w. A. Grant. John w. Hill. Chas
a. McCulloch, Ralph c. Otis, Frank
Hamlin and Walter J. Raymer.
After complaining that from time to
time inspired articles have appeared
in the public press. evidently intend.
ed to place the Nineteen Sixteen club
and its purpose in false light" the
statement continues:
This organization was established
primarily to encourage the return Of
those voters who left the party In 1912.
and to promote harmony in the Re-
publican ranks.
THE officers and members Of the
Nineteen sixteen club believe 1t is
high time that the quarrels of leaders
should cease and that the selfish am.
bition Of the different chieftains
should be subordinated to the good OF
the entire party.
THE Republican party Of Illinois
has been rent asunder because OF the
efforts OF different leaders to control
its management. The time has come
when the party cannot be treated as
the personal asset of any leader. 1t
belongs to the entire mass of Republi-
cans. The personal antipathies Of men
cannot be permitted to divide the
party The jealousies of Mr. Deneen
and Mr.. Lorimer do not concern us,
Both have had their day as controlling
factors"

But some years ago Job was put

people did not know what IL was

It appeared on the ballot as IAN

Of stun, but nothing about four.year
term.
The Job was put up on the people
by big daily newspaper and lot of
grating contractors.
The voters woke up the day after
election to find that the Mayors term
Of Office had been extended from two
to four years.
Now the people are crying for the
shortest possible term.
One year Is long enough for a good
mayor. 1t Is too long for a bad one.
There Is no excuse for electing a
mayor Tor longer than one year.
The election costs him nothing.
The people bear all Of the election
expenses.
And short term means the end of
an Office holding aristocracy.
The citizen who gets a civil answer
In the City Hall today is rarity.
Tho Office holding aristocrats are so
sure of their jobs that they view the
average voter with that peculiar sort
OF scorn known to the pay roll fiend.
With a mayor elected for one year
there would be fewer loafers on the
payrolls and everybody in the city en-
ploy would be on his good behavior.

INCOME TAX
IS PUZZLE

Chicago. Jan. 15.-Income taxpayers
anxious for further information con
corning the new law, yesterday throng
ed the Offices, of Samuel NJ. Fitch, col
lector of internal revenue. The fea-
ture that puzzled many was the per-
centage to be substracted5 from their
net incomes to allow for a tax on ten
months income, the tax beginning on
March g.. 1913.
Married men are entitled to q net
income of $4,000 free of taxaticn, and
single men to $4,000 net" patiently ex-
planned Chief Deputy Frank Hem
street. "For example, if a single
mans income should be $4,000, his
tax for a year would be on $4,000. But
this year he pays on the excess over
$4,000 for ten months. He must frs:
figure what five sixths of his income
amounts to. and the excess, over $1,000
is his taxable income this year. The
same reasoning holds OF which mar
riel men pay taxes"

than 500 persons during the day. Fully
