CANDIDATES FOR COUNTY
OFFICES ON ALL BALLOTS

Riverside Press: In spite of the
efforts that have been made to ex-
plain the new plan of nomination and
election of county officers, there still
seems to be considerable misunder-
standing regarding the situation. Fol-
/ lowing are the essential facts:
All county officers are now nom
partisan and all who have been NOM
mated by the petition system will
have their names in a non-partisan
column on all the ballots of all par
ties-Progressive, Republican, Demo-
cratic, Prohibition and Socialist.
In addition to the party ballots
there will be a special non-partisan
ballot for the voters who decline to
state" their party allegiance. For the
first time in the political history of
the state these voters will participate
in the nominating primary.
1HS NOteS iOI CouiiCJ cihSCio oh
all ballots will be totalled and in case
any candidate receives majority of
all votes cast, he is practically elect
ed then and there, for his name will
be the only one appearing on the
general ballot in the November cleo
ton. In case two or more candidates
are competing and no one receives a
clear majority at the primary, the
two highest will run again in No
vember. If only two are running for
any office the contest will be settled
at the primary and the primary vote
is therefore doubly important.
The law contemplates that the con-
test for judicial and county officers
shall be strictly non-partisan; and
any candidate or any supporter of a
candidate who is seeking to inject
partisan politics into the county cam
paign is violating the spirit of the
law. The contest should be on the
merits of the men and voters should
make their choice on this basis alone.
No party designations will appear
sitter the names of the county candi-
dates and the ballots will give nc
clew whatever as to their politica'
affiliations. An election on the ques.
ton of efficiency and personal fit
ness ought to insure competent anc
independent set of county officers.

AVERAGES GIVE THE
FEDERALS BEST OF 1T
(By Frank G. Menke)

New York, Aug. l3.-lf 1t is true
that figures never lie, then the aver
ages compiled up to July 15-the
halfway mark of the 1914 season.
show that the Federal league has been
putting up better all-around baseball,
in The main, than have either the
American or the National leagues.
Take a squint yourself at the figures
that show the happenings in the three
leagues up to July Is:
Elapsed average time per inning
for all games-Federal, 1888 min
utes; American, 1912; National, 13.48.
Errors-Federal, 1858; American
1894; National, 1888
Double plays-Federal, 486; Amer
lean, 44O; National, ATS.
Triple plays--Federal, /; American
a; National, 2.
Stolen bases-Federal 800; Ameri
can, 1856; National, 7G3.
Passed balls by catchers-Federal
co; American, 90; National, 7S.
Bases on balls-Federal, 1884
American, 2O26; National, 1853.
Strikeouts-Federal, 249S; Ameri
can, 1900; National, 2213.
Wild pitches-Federal, 1OG; Amer
lean, 141; National, 1875.
No-hit games-Federal, O.; Ameri
can, 1; National, 0.
One-hit games-Federal, /; Ameri
can, s; National, ,,,3.- -..-.-.---------
Two-hit games-Fedcral, 6; Ameri
can, 10; National, S.
Three-hit games-Federal, ii
American, "a; National, ID.
The pitchers records include the
names of rs Federal league pitchers
81 American leaguers and 81 Nationa
leagucrs-the total number that
worked in each league up to the tim<
the figures were compiled.
The Feds, from all that we car
learn, are now proceeding about the
business of grabbing off the star play
ers of the minors. They shared La
Rue Kirby, one of the best clubbers
in the Southern league, a few days
ago, and are said to have their lines
laid for the capture of at least {
dozen more of the best looking minor
leaguers.
1t is a comparatively easy matter
for the Feds to get the star minol
leaguers, because they deal directly
with the player and give him the pur
chase price, instead of the purchas,
Price going to the minor league clui
that owns him.
Kirby's case is an illustration. Be
cause of his batting and fielding skill
Kirby surely would have brought a
least $4,000 from one of the clubs il
the American or National leagues
The minor league club magnate woulC
have received that money and Kirby
would have received nothing. But tht
Feds dealt direct with Kirby. They
didn't have to cough up" the 5000;
to the minor league owner. They
offered Kirby contract equivalent
at least, to what would have beer
paid to him by club in the Ameri
can or National league. Then they
gave him a bonus of about $4,000 fol
signing. In other words, they bought
Kirby from himself.

ice cream or cold buildings, are
French novelty which American
hostesses are adopting. There is
something just little daring IN the
process, which appeals to many
women, and, by preparing the bran
died fruit in a small chahng dish at
table, it is possible TO introduce an
interesting feature just at the close
OF the meal
Liquor Heated Before Lighting.
Any OF the seasonablc small
fruits, such as red raspbcrries or
cherries, are suited TO this use, and
larger fruits, peaches. pIums, pears
and apricots, cut in medium sized

The fruit is covered with equal parts
OF brandy and kirsch, the lamp Of

mixture stirred genuy as it cooks,

The shell OF a large grape fruit
holds sufficient for two portions and
the burning fruit sauce is so served
al restaurant noted for its French
novelties OF service.
Cakes Filled with Branded Fruit.
When the burning fruit IS to be
served at a dinner party, it is a
pretty idea 10 have the mould OF ice
cream placed on large platter with
individual sponge cakes at intervals,
as a border. BY previously remov-
ing the inside of the little cakes
there will be sufficient room for a
generous portion OF the branded
fruit, which should be flaming when
brought into the dining room. Each
guest takes one of the fruit-filled
cakes with a portion OF the cream.
Nav Be Served with Rice Pudding.
The same idea may be carried out
with a rich and ice cold rice pudding
or with a mould OF Bavarian cream.
When fresh fruits are not obtain
able canned or preserved fruit,
drained from their juices, will an
swer the same purpose, and unique
methods OF serving will easily sug-
oest themselves TO the hostess who
is searching for novelties.
