MINNESOTA WINS
FROM WISCONSIN
Gophers cineh the Conference Cham
pionship In Twenty to
Three Victory
Yesterday.
HARD FOUGHT CONTEST
FumbIed Punt Early IN the First
Quarter, Helps Wisconsin Score
Three That Saved
WhItewash.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service. ]
MADISON. Wis, Nov. 20.-Fast,
snappy playing, excellent generalship
and SURPRISING team work TODAY put
the Minnesota University football
team in the championship position of
the Big Nine conference and sent
Wisconsin to defeat 20 to 8. It was
q hard won victory for the Gophers.
terrific speed Of both teams bringing
out spectacular plays from the kick
off to the last play.
While Minnesota made some splen-
did gains on forward passes, this form
,of play was broken UP time and again
by interruptions by both teams. 1t
seemed during the first period that the
Badgers were going to overwhelm the
husky Minnesctan's by their wonder
full speed They put up plucky
game, but were outclassed and per.
haps slightly rnnerved by the col
lapse of the temporary stand at the
north end Of the field during the sec
ond quarter. After the first display
OF brflliancy, 1t was clearly Mime
sofas game.
A fumbled punt early in the first
quarter gave Wisconsin an opportun-
ity to make the three points that
saved them from withdrawing
Johnson. Minnesota's right halfback,
muffed punt on his twenty yard line
and Wisconsin player fell on It.
Three line smashes put the ball on
the fifteen yard line. after which
Simpson neatly booted the pigskin
between the uprights.
Then came the collapse Of the
stands. Whether this affected the
Wisconsin players or not, It was very
evident that they could not cope with
the Gopher attack after play was re-
sumed. After the plucky Badgers
had held Minnesota for downs on the
Wisconsin one yard line, Simpson
booted the ball almost straight into the
air. Minnesota got the ball within ten
yards of the Badger goal and It re-
iquired very little maneuvering to put
Bierman over for the first touchdown.
Third Period.
Smashing line bucks featured the
third period. After an end run by
Bierman that netted the Gophers 25
yards, he put the ball over for the
second touchdown.
Wisconsin players were swept of
their feet In the final period and with
in few minutes the Gophers had the
ball on Wisconsin's three yard line.
Wyman went over for the score and
Baston failed to make the extra point
by kicking goal. 1t was at this juno
ture that Simpson gave the rooters a
thrill by spectacular IS yard run
His effort was Of no avail, and a few
minutes later the game ended with
Minnesota still on top, pushing the
ball into Wisconsin's territory.
Captain Bierman completed his al
lotted three years as a conference
football player today in a blaze Of
glory.
The lineup:
Minnesota. Wisconsin.

BASEBALL PROPOSITION IS
MADE BY FORMER MANAGER

IN some former years because Of the
fact that bad weather cut down the
attendance receipts Mr. Belt figures
that If he could get a $4,000 guaran-
tee from the business men and sup
porters Of baseball here that he would
be able TO go through next season and
put a creditabIe team In the field.
He would act in the capacity OF
president or general superintendent,
would select the players and take
care OF that whole end of the bust
ness. His idea would he to have a
playing field manager, TO keep In the
salary limit and as a four-man rule
precaution.
Just how this proposition is to be
laid before the city has not been de-
cided as yet. II is possible that a
meeting OF the committee Of twelve.
in whose hands is the baseball future.
will be called, or possibly an open
meeting of baseball fans viii be held.
Mr.. Belt will only attempt to carry
out the proposition If the new base
ball park is built. The Baseball
Grounds association is composed OF
ffty-fye men. Each have put 800 In
the ten acres that have been pur-
chased for $500. The land is stu

boulevard and Main street rad inter
sect. and is opposite the Standard
Four Tire company's land.
Only Four Acres Required.
The land is said to be worth s10,-
900 since the building up of the fac
tory district. Only four acres are re-
quired for baseball park and Mr..
Belt believes that II part of the re-
naming six were cut UP into building
lots and sold. that the $4,000 neces-
sary for the construction or the new
baseball park could be soon realized.
He has talked with large number OF
the ground holders and finds many OF
them ready to support his proposition
II the ball park is built, the street
car lines will be extended and this
would add to the value OF the land as
residence district.
Mr.. Belt would have the entrance
to the new park either on Main street
or the boulevard. II Keokuk is at all
inclined to wish to have baseball, the
proposition IS undoubtedly the best
that could be made and some action
should result from this public an
nouncement OF the offer.
Mr.. Belt says that he does not care
II all Of the present players are sold
to help clear this years Indebtedness
as there are plenty more to be had
and he knows, for he is an old head
at the game. For those who are in
terested in Keokuk's baseball future.
this announcement will inspire new
hone for the future
The Gate City would like to hear
the expressions of those interested
and would be glad to make public
communications concerning the mat
ter.

THE WASTE OF WAR.

The financial secretary Of the Brit
ish treasury, speaking at meeting
in London recently, estimated that
the cost Of the war to England Is
$3.50 a second. This is $4,000 an
hour. Let us see what it means by
comparative figures.
Last year the farmers Of Polk
county raised 100000 bushels of
oats. At the price for which the
farmers sold this crop, the entire Polk
county oat yield for an entire year
is being spent by England for inter
national murder in a single hour.
Last year the farmers of Monroe
county raised well on toward mil
lion bushels Of corn. At the price
for which the farmers sold this corn,
the entire years work of the Mon
roe county corn growers only dupli-
Gated the amount which England is

purposes.
Last year the farmers OF fourteen
Of the richest counties in Iowa
Audubon, Poweschiek, Carol, Hardin
Guthrie, Washington, Wright, Kos
suth, Story Boone, Tama, Linn, Koe-
kuk and Mahaska) devoted much Of
their land and much of their energies
to bringing in a bumper crop Of win
ter wheat through to maturity and
the mill all that the farmers of these
fourteen Iowa counties earned from
their winter wheat in 1914 was spent
by England in a single hour in order
to kill a few of the enemy against
whom the war murderers had no per-
sonal grudge.
Last year all the potatoes raised in
all the nincty-nine counties Of Iowa
in the entire season would have kept
England fighting for only ten hours.
And yet The potato crop is an i'm
mensely valuable one to the state OF
Iowa and upon it some two million
people depend for their dali susten-
ance.
Some day the nations of the earth
are going to wake up to the fact
that war is not only barbarie and
inexcusable, it is economically iade-
feusible. War imporvirshes the land
and tho people. 1t costs more IN q
day than an industrious people can
earn, by the sweat OF o million brows,
in whole year.

brought about by mans conscience.

end forever by his economic thrift.

illuring promises of the Germans.

alluring promises of the Germans
From Palmer's article one might
imagine Lord Kitchener as forceful
central figure holding taut reins
on British armies in all the fight
ing zones. Kitchener's problems in
clude keeping peace throughout the
empire, recruiting millions of men,
training the recruits for service, and
driving the armies forward. Ktch-
ener has never failed. He is fully
as persistent and confident as the
kaiser. He denies himself to society.
His reports to parliment on campai-
gns are made in sentences. He is one
of the few men in England who re-
allied from the first the enormity
of the task before him and set about
in n big way to accomplish it. He
has enemies who will be quick to at
tempt his overthrow in case of fail
ure. Mr.. Palmer does not express
direct opinion, but one may read
between the lines that the correspond
ent feels Lord Kitchener has done
fully as well as could be expected
thus far, considering all the circum-
stances.

is LORD KITCHENER A SUCCESS

Frederick Palmer in Golfers, says
that Lord Kitchener came as naturally
into command of the British army at
the beginning Of the war as General
Grant would have been chosen had
this nation been compelled to go into
new war in 1865. Kitchener is de-
scribed by the correspondent as a
giant man of iron which is the gen
orally accepted opinion of the man.
1t must be remembered that when
the trained German millions started
to drive across Belgium, England had
something like 10000 regulars, fully
supplied with munitions that could be
depended on for immediate service
on the continent. France was better
prepared with men and supplies. But
England throughout the war, mas not
been able TO put single man in action
without taking train from the posts
at home, steamship to other countries
and then train again TO the actual
battle lines. Mr.. Palmer speaks Of
the English as good on mile run
but poor on a hundred yard dash"
He explains that circumstances were
all in favor of the Germans at the
beginning of the war and that they
have continued to be so until this
time. Abundantly supplied with am
munition, Germany's millions Of
trained soldiers were in action almost
from the minute war was declared.
The German system is military train
ing for all men. The English system
is small army Of trained men, an
efficinet navy and dependence upon
volunteers in case Of an emergency.
Kitcheners problem has been to
whip the recruits into fighting trim.
Mr.. Palmer says that Kitchener has
really accomplished a great deal.
With no regulars in Africa he has been
able to preserve the peace Of the
empire there. He has drawn upon
the Indian regulars for their best
troops in fighting trim in a winter
climate. He has turned the invasion
Of his favorite Egypt into farce.
He has initiated a campaign on the
Dardenelles. This campaign is not yet
success. but who can tell what
great influence it had on Italy, or
in cowing the Mohammedan hordes
or preserving the equilibrium OF the
Balkans. The thousands Of dead and
wounded carried into Constantincple
Mr.. Palmer believes have been a won
