NO SUCH LAW. - Fruit Clerk"
asks if there is no law in this land of
liberty to stop the condition of slav-
cry that compels him to work 16
hours day for $13 week.
The ablest lawyers would not be
able to find such a law in Illinois.
Sympathetic and short-sighted men
and women are trying to get such
laws passed now. Some states already
have them. Labor unions have sue
ceeded in getting shorter hours and
better working conditions and high
er wages for few workers. But all
these laws are nothing but statutory
restrictions and such arbitrary re-
strictions as that are contrary to the
natural law. Hence they will fail to
accomplish their. object. A few of
Gods children will be benefited and
the great body of them will still suf-
fer from bad conditions.
The natural law calls for freedom,
equal freedom for every individual.
Under that law each would work as
desired for the products of labor
prompted. If much is desired the
hours would be long. If little the
hours would be short All being
equally free, work would be individu-
al or cooperative, as seemed best to
the worker, and free cooperation
would give each the full results of
his toll.
The evil conditions of today are
produced by restrictive laws, antago-

BALL GAME.

The Metropolis Giants crossed
bats Sunday June 10Th with tie
Brookport Club and defeated
them easily. Lyons opened the
game for Metropolis and let
them down with one score for d
inning. Then Blakemore. the
big speed merchant. went in to
finish up. as the day was SO
warm and they didn't want TO
pitch Stew Lyons. the spit
ball artist. Blakemore allowed
them TO make two scores on err

Harris was on the mound for
BrookPort and was hit long and
hard during the game; it was an
easy victory for the boys as the

LUDERUS, SLUGGING PHIL CHIEF,
TO WRITE FOR EVENING LEDGER
Pat Moran's Right-hand Man, Bosom Friend and Conf
dant Will Cover World Series, With Inside
Dope for Readers of This Paper

When Luderus was appointed captain
of the PhillieS this spring there was
much sarcastic comment penned by
scribes OF other cities, who had come to
look upon him as a slow thinker be-
cause he could not talk quite so fast or
loud as some OF the veterans who were
with the team at that time. But he has
proved himself one of the best leaders
in years.
and aside from Moran. who has been his
roommate and bosom friend, not even
the other members of the team suspected
that the big slugger would make such a
capable leader. "Ludy' was always pop
ular with his teammates and when ap-
pointed captain he started early in the
spring to prove to them that he was by
far a more brilliant inside player than
he had ever been credited with being.
From a quiet. unassuming player. who
had really been ridden until his spirit
and enthusiasm were on the wane, Luz
derus became an aggressive, inspiring
leader.
Aside from his sluggtng ability. Luderus
Ii great ball player He IL by far a
better fielding FIRST baseman than he has
been credited with. as every infielder on
the Philly team will testify. There are
many more graceful nrst basemen In the
National League than Luderus. but there
Is none, not oven Daubert. who Ii as sure
on a throw.
Schmidt. OF the Braves. made a wonder
ful record in 1914 for handling thrown
balls, but this season Luderus has sur
passed the Boston frst baseman.
LuderuH will. as captain OF the team
and Moran's nrst lieutenant, be in ar
excellent position TO write the inside dop,
on the series Watch for these articles.
