THE DAILY SPORT REVIEW
By HAL SHERIDAN

NEW YORK. Sept PA broad
sweep Of the landscape discloses just
about two things the Boston Braves
have to worry about now that they
are going to have the Athletics on
their hands-what are they going to
do with them and how they will strug-
gle along through the winter with a
lot of worlds series money on their
hands
Holding a piece of paper firmly in
one hand and a pencil in the other, it
NAV be figured out just what the
Giants must do if the Braves do
something else suddenly to throw the
switch that will bring the well-known
pennant TO New York. That however,
is largely a waste of time. The Braves
as yet have not mathematically cinch
ed the pennant, known in some circles
as the gonfalcon. Neither have we
cinch on the fact that Christmas is
coming. but nobody doubts it. A
miracle might upset either prospective
event and that is about all.
The Giants turned up two defeats
in one afternoon yesterday. feat they
have not been able to perform before
this season. Rube Marquard also lost
his twelfth straight game and the
Giants we're shut out for the third
time in three days when they failed
to get a run across the pan off Sallee.
Their one-run in the first inning OF
the first gave them a record of hav-
ing got one tally across in "A innings.
gait hardly calculated to strike any
terror in Boston.
The Braves tripped and took an ap.
plication of whitewash in their sec
ond game with the Reds. Their vic
tory in the first tussel which was
barely nosed out, gave them a lead of
another game on the Giants. however,
and they now have the extremely safe
lead of six full games. The Cardinals,
who showed everything that the
Giants didn't have yesterday. are now
only two games behind the McGraw

II was a circuit swat by Smith. in
the ninth, that won the first game for
the Braves from the Reds. Lear and
Davis hooked up in a pitching duel
in the second and Davis weakened in
the ninth. Three runs trickled over.
That spoiled the record Of the Reds
who hund up a mark Of nineteen
straight defeats.
Branch Hickey, manager Of the
Browns. has his own ideas of running
his team. His regulars made such a
poor showing against 1he Yanlks that
he simply benched the entire team ana

collection Of Browns made 10 errors
The lanks won and moved into sixth
place.
Three home run drives, scoring sew

SELLING BY AUTO.

The matter of providing statesmen
with automobiles instead of requiring
them to depend on railroad trains
and trolley cars in calling upon the
trade, is question that is now re-
ceiving careful consideration by the
heads OF many large wholesale
houses and manufacturers. A num-
Der of representative firms have al
ready adopted this plan, and report
that it works advantageously. par
ticularly in States closely settled
with small towns, such as Pennsyl-
vania, Delaware, New Jersey, New
York, Connecticut and Massachusetts
In line with this idea, the Metz
Automobile Company, Of Waltham,
Mass. has just issued for free dis
tribution, a neat and cleverly illus
trated booklet addressed to the heads
of sales departments. and entitled
Selling by Automobile" It's text is
confined to plain business argument
To read it is to gain valuable ideas,
for whoever wrote IL certainly is
familiar with the ways Of statesmen.

keen determination Of the voter who, while Civ

ignore the personal character of the candidates
or to swallow II whole" solely because Of the

by the various candidates already entrenched in
office seeking another term upon the record OF

that the people resent and rebuke the resort TO

where normally he should run ahead Of his
ticket, is due to conditions that require no de-

Rack 70 Old Party Lines.

The most striking feature OF the election re-
turns, taking the country as a whole, is the re-
adjustment along old party lines.
The political upheaval of two years ago was,
as every one knows, due to the schism that d.
vided the previously dominant majority into re-
publicans and progresslves, and permitted the
democrats to slip in between them. The vast
majority OF republicans who voted for other
party candidates for president plainly had no in
tention whatever OF permanently leaving the re-
publican fold, and have taken this first oppor-
tunity offered 70 join again in supporting yepub-
lloan candidates wherever those candidates
squared with republican principles, and pos
sessed records commanding public confidence.
The result is the election of republican gov
errors in several states that went democratic
two years ago. and substantial gains In congress
Bional representation. Whether or not 1t turns
out that the house is still under democratic con-
troll the margin is sure to be close and the OPP
position will be a republican opposition with
which the few scattering progressives will be
compelled to align themselves In word 1914,
viewed as prelude to 1916, foreshadows clearly
that the next presidential election will be
another political battle royal between the demo-
Gratis and the reorganised republicans.
