All the boys did we'll and proved
that in a few years Richland will
have a track team she may well be
proud of.
The success Of the day was due to
the untiring efforts OF Misses Carrie
Smith and Annie McMahan. This
being the first thing Of the kind ever
held in Oconee, they were especially
careful to make it n success Miss
McMahan hopes to work up a county
affair next fall, and we hope she will

THIS RESOLUTION MEANS
WAR" SAID KENT.

Representative Kent of California is
the one member of congress who told
the whole truth when he voted against
the resolution permitting Intervention.
What he said is this:
This man Huerta, who has been
branded as a bandit, traitor, and
murderer by our government, has been
asked to make an apology, an apology
as head OF responsible nation. and
this demand has come to us through
subordinate in the navy. What absurd
logic Is this that we are called upon to
indorse? The man whom we do not
recognize as the responsible head of
the Mexican government has apollo
gized, the man who committed the Of
tense of arresting American sailors
has been punished, and now because
forsooth, little more gunpowder will
not be burned than this particular
underling in the navy said ought to
De burned, we are declaring war.
This resolution means war, and
nothing short of it. This is not a
declaration of peace. This is not a
declaration against one man. It is to
every man who knows Mexico a decla.
ration OF war against the whole peo-
pie OF Mexico, and nothing else, for
lhe moment we put armed forces into
Mexico all the forces of radical an
tipathy, all OF the old historic strug-
giles Will be revived, and we shall find
that We shall have to take the coun-
try and rule it."

EXPERT ESTIMATES COST OF
WAR WITH MEXICO AT
100000 EVERY DAY.

Asked for an opinion as to the prob
able money cost of war with Mexico,
Congressman James Hay, chairman Of
the military committee of the U. S.
house of representatives, answered
that this would, OF course, depend upon
the number OF men called out, and this
no one knows.
1--WE have a standing army, the full
strength of which is 100000. The cost
OF it's maintenance, in time of peace,
is s1O0,OOO,OOO a year.
THE military appropriation bill, just
passed, carries that amount. In time
of war the increased destruction of
equipment and other added expense
will swell this figure to at least $780,.
100000.
"Supposing that the president calls
for 100000 volunteers-the cost OF
maintenance Of this army-pay, sub
sistence, transportation, animals-will
be at least $5O0,000,000 year. This
makes total OF $650,000,000 a year
for an armed land force of 100000
men-the least number, I suppose, that
could be considered for war with o
country Of Mexico's size and topo
graphy.
"These figures are conservative.
give them as an absolute minimum
The cost OF an army of the size named
may prove to be a great deal more
than have estimated.
ut may very easily run up to So,
100000 a day, and there is no telling
but that 1T MIGHT GO TO A GREAT
DEAL HIGHER THAN THAT! AND
remember, also, that considerably
larger force may be found necessary.

fair because fair fight would only
accomplish their own overthrow.
Resolved, that the attitude of the
town of Arlington, In so far as It sup
ports this hypocritical and partisan
policy, and particularly in the case Of
the McKees, a policy which Ia newt
ably oppressive toward the rural dis
trlcts which are members of this con-
solldated district, shows bad faith
and an extremely selfish and ungener-
Gus disposition. Such oppression is
not good or conducive to peace and
harmony.
Resolved, that we now have no re-
course save our own class solidarity
and such show of that strength and
courage which our union of purpose
makes. We recommend petition in
boots"-a general gathering of the
members OF our class in this district
for the purpose OF presenting our
grievance to the superintendent and
also to the board If WE CAN EVER
CATCH THEM IN SESSION!
Resolved, that in any event we re-
new our allegiance to the noble cause
for which these teachers suffer and
extend to them our hearty hands as
sympathetic comrades.

the Federal League roster are more
populous on the whole, and with the
exception Of New York, than those
of the National and American
Leagues were at the time of their in
ception.
AS for New York, If he Federal
League should become successful II
ought to break into New York with
a roar.
There Is no place on earth where
the people follow the leader like a
bunch of sheep more unanimously
and more spontaneously than New
York. There is a golden shower
awaiting the Federal League in New
York If 1t makes good elsewhere,
even, perhaps. II the Giants continue
permanently at the top and the Yam
KEGS improve sufficiently to give New
York first-class baseball every. day
In the season.
Plenty Of Big League" Cities.
But New York is unnecessary to
make the Federal League successful.
There is enough baseball money in
the other cities to support a big
league.
Notice that the F'ederals propose to
invade only three old big league cit
ies-Chicago, st, Louis and Pittsburg
In Chicago Charles Webb Murray has
made a mess of the National League
for long time. He has been look
ing for trouble. It's coming to him.
In St Louis-whiCh used to be one
of the best baseball cities in the
United States and where the publics
money flower like water into the
clubs coffers-the magnates of both
major league teams have been killing
the goose that laid the golden egg
for so long that it ought TO be a CinCh
for somebody to walk into the city
with a good baseball attraction and
worry.
Pittsbure Ripe for Feds.
Pittsburg has seemed ripe for two
teams for long time. Every year
the magnates have thought seriously
of transferring the American Detroit
franchise to Pittsburg. Ii appears
that there is capital behind the Fed
eral League movement in Pittsburg.
Now consider the other five cities.
Baltimore and Buffalo used to have
big league clubs and supported them.
They were, and are, not particularly
less baseball mad than such cities as
Cleveland, Washington. Detroit and
Cincinnati are. Kansas City and In
dianapolis are much larger than many
big league cities were when the old
major leagues were organized. To-
ronto Is a live. thriving, active, up
to-date American municipality.
There is no question of the popu-
lation being sufficient to support big
league teams.
