The business sessions OF the State

airy State Capitol, in the chambers of
the State Assembly. This arrange
ment was perfectly in harmony with
the policy and practice of our Catho-

of the State as a whole, and ever
bear in mind their duties towards the
State in connection with their obli-

Among the resolutions adopted by

able than ever before. Each party
is watching the other, the Irish Ma
tionalists are on the alert in watch
ing for snap divisions of Parliament
and are suspicious of trickery or
treachery dominating the attendance
OF Parliamentary affairs. The Tory
party would welcome Federal rather
than Home Rule because of the fear
that Home Rule is not after all the
end of the Irish trouble. In this they
can compliment themselves on being
correct. Home Rule is not the end
of the Irish trouble. But plausible
Tory arguments are for Federal
plans of Government rather than risk
the loss of Ireland to English rule.
1t would be taken in preference to
conflict on the political issues of the
day with Tories VS.. Liberals as the
order of procedure. Many of those
for whom Carson speaks are becom-
ing displeased because of the Ulster
blunder and disgruntled because he
received so much attention from the
Government and is allowed to go as
he has without hindrance.
Bonar Law of the opposition al
lied himself with Carson. The rash
ness and unreasonableness of the
Carson policy is such that any person
of ability UNFOLDING the cause could
not hope to be more than mere
lieutenant. Thus it is that Bonar
Law is looked upon as really in the
cause of Carson. which. after all, is
nothing more than personal and self
ish ambition. Carson is looked upon
as a man utterly abandoned to any
care or consequences and wholly
Indifferent to any policy except rule
or ruin" Every analysis of the
Home Rule situation point to one
conclusion. the destruction of the
Ascendancy party and the rise of the
Liberals. The attendant circum-
stances connected with such change
means that in the near future no one
will be born in England or anywhere
in the British Isles. for that matter,
with the guarantee that they have
as their birthright any privileges
which are not part and parcel of
every other subject of the Empire.
Come what may the time is ripe. the
fires Of English liberty are about to
be rekindled with the fagots that
have been taken across the channel
from Ireland and Home Rule will
mean much for those who are inter-
ested in the land Bill and the Welsh
Church Bill and the rank and file
of English subjects and Home Rule
will prove boon and blessing not
only for the Irish people of Ireland
but for every subject of England be-
cause of al lthey have learned and
heard of the rights of citizens and
subjects from Irish tongues.

What is the answer? Is some d.

Romantic nothing" said the rail-
road operator. THAT honeysuckle is
there for purely business purposes.
You recall there was an extensive
food on. this and other roads a veal
ago. That flood washed out a lot OF
our track west of the Alleghenies. II
also. undermined the banks Of a
great deal of track eastward, where
there was not supposed to be any
floods at all. But we found the rail
road banks which were planted with
honeysuckles held against the under
mining influence of the excessive
rains; while the banks not so protect
ed did a landslide of their own and
blocked traffic.
We are now planting honeysuckles
on the entertainments where they are
liable to shelve, and are charging ii
up to operating expenses, without re-
gard to the humane idea that the
odor might be grateful to passengers
travelling on a soft coal road"

MUCH INTEREST IN
Big nine POLITICS

Chica go, June 4.-Interest in Big
Nine conference politics o~vershadow-
ed yesterday the attention paid the
visiting athletes, who are practicing
for the western college conference
meet here next Saturday.
The announcement Of Prof. S. A.
Goodnough Of the University Of Illinois
that he would urge legislative dele
gates to the meeting Of the conference
committee on Saturday morning to
limit individuals in the conference to
one branch Of sport aroused the repre-
sentatives of the schools with the
smaller attendance to protest.
The University Of Chicago, it was
said. will lead the fight against the
proposal, arguing that it is necessary
in the schools with a comparatively
small membership to utilize their stars
in every possible branch Of sport.
The following estimated figures OF
the available athletic strength Of eight
of the schools were given:
Chicago 5O4. Iowa 513. Northwestern
1876, Purdue 913, Minnesota 1861,
Ohio 1858. Illinois 1921 and Wisconsin
1925.
Representatives of Chicago contend
ed that with the smaller athletic ma
terial to call upon the school hardly
would be a contender in conference
athletics, unless ~all-around men like
Des Jardien, were allowed to partici-
pate in every sport for which they
were fitted.
The Universities Of California and
Colorado and Leland Stanford contin-
ued their practice on Chicago's field
and it was said several records were
shattered. The coaches kept all re-
suits to themselves, however.

Of action. He frankly admits thai
there are ifs and butts in his way. But
he knows what he wants, and knows

pies and his methods so far as he can

The President and Mexico,

Chicago Record-Herald: Striking
n extraordinary indeed is the con
Versation" with the president on Mex
leo that is recorded in the current
issue of the Saturday Evening Post.
To the close student Of Mr.. Wilson's
addresses and messages on Mexico the
conversation may offer no idea that
is positively new. But the bringing
together of many ideas in a form that
challenges the attention Of the nation
and the rest of the world as
WELLS a genuine service to the
cause of truth and public education.
One thing is absolutely certain-the
world will believe the president. There
will be no sneers. no railing, no cynical
doubts. Mr.. Wilson has been criti-
cized and from many points of view,
but his high -m~indedness, his absolute
sincerity, his profound idealism no n
that is worth noticing, either here or
abroad, will question for a moment.

AMERICAN YACHTS
IN TRIAL RACES

Rye, N. Y, June 4.-Sailing under
almost perfect weather conditions,
judged from the yachtman's stand
point, the Herreshoff designed r~esolute
defeated Alexander S. Cochran's
Vanitie off here in the second trial
race for 75-foot sloops, candidates for
Americas cup defender in the races
set for September against Sir Thomas
Lipton's challenger. Shamrock w.
The ResOlutes voctory came after a
twenty-five and one-half mile race on
the waters of Long Island sound by a
margin Of eleven seconds. On estimat-
ed corrected time this was increased
to three minutes, twelve seconds.
The yachtsmen who witnessed the
race were not so much concerned with
the times as they were satisfied at
having seen the two cup defense aspir-
ants competing under far more favor
able conditions than those prevailing
in yesterdays initial contest when the
Vanitie was returned victor by a mar
gin of many minutes after having
sailed twice around q triangular
course in winds of the 1ukiest nature.
These nautical experts felt that last
night they had a better line on the
ability of the two sloops than could
be formed from Tuesdays race.
Such conclusions as were reached
after today's test are at best but ten
tative ones, for the race, a zeal to
windward proved little beyond the fact
that in the present condition Of the
boats the Resolute is g triie faster in
moderate airs. The Vanitie's sails are
not as yet setting satisfactorily and
although in a runoff wind she appear
ed a trife faster, the advantage OF
several weeks Of turning up by the
Rsolute showed clearly. Until the
Vanitie has further opportunity for
a thorough tuning up and the yachts
have met in a strong wind, close fol-
lowers Of yacht racing declined to ex-
press any opinion regarding the rela-
tive merits Of the sloops.
Considering the handicaps, the re-
suit of today's struggle would appear
to indicate that the pair are fairly
evenly matched, for the conditions
were equally favorable to both single
stickers. The wind held steady

1.-THE MAN WHO TANNED CASEY

I'm just an ordinary fan and l don't
count for much,
But I'm writing history with a true
and honest touch.
1t isn't often that l knock, I'll put you
next to that,
But 1 would interpose a word on
Casey at the Bat"
1 heard an actor fan recite it fifteen
years ago.;
He sort of introduced it in the pro-
gress of the show,
1t made a hit from gallery down to
parquet floor;
But now I've got to thinking n that
poem makes me sore.
Oh. yes, I'll come across, that poem IS
a beaut;
It's been running Through my noodle
since our team got on the
chute.
l fail to see how any fan could prove
SO off his nut
About the mighty Casey who proved
himself a mutt.
The score, we're told, was four to two,
one innisg left to play.
Which proved the Frogtown twirler
had things coming all his way.
So in the ninth, with two men gone be
loosened up a bit,
And Flynn tore off a single, Blake
let loose a two-base hit.
And then from stand and bleachers
there rose a mighty roar;
They wanted just a little hit, they
knew 'twould tie the score.
For there at bat stood Casey, mighty
Casey. MudVille'S pride;
But was the Frogtown slabster sent
b%allooning terrified?
Now in the ninth, with two men on,
and Casey at the bat.
Most pitchers would have let him walk,
we all are sure Of that.
But Hagen was a hero, he was made
Of sterner stuff,
It's his kind gets the medal and the
long newspaper puff.
He stood alone and friendless in that
wild and frenzied throng;
He wasn't sure he had one friend to
boost his game along.
But back in Frogtown, where they got
the plays by special wire;
The fans stood ready. if he won, to
set the town on fire.
AAS III III l"N OliA "AtSAh AAS
should play the leading role,
He heard the fans a-yelling and twas
music to his soul.
He saw the CLEAN of confidence in
mighty Casey's eye.
And he resolved, I'll strike him out;
I'll do it or I'll die"
So Hagen poised a moment on the tru-
est corkscrew plan,
And hurled a swift inshoot that cut
the corner of the pan. .
But Casey thought the first one pich-
ed would surely be a ball;
So didn't try to hit it, to the great
disgust Of all.
And again the Frogtown wizard fig
ures dope on Mudville's pride;
"He thinks the next will be an out,
and that it's going wide"
So he just shot through a straight one
to the center Of the plate,

it was too late.
And now the mighty slugger is a-hang
ing on the string,
