as much Of joke as any part of the
contest. While there was but one me-
chanical error in the last three stanzas
the teams played without regard of the
science of the game.
The contest was detracted from con-

umpire. This is the third day President
Justice has failed to provide an umpire
for the teams playing on the local lot.
Yesterday Walworth and Richardson

Richardson went in for Coyle, Beard,

CONVENTION COMMITTEE MEETS.
Plans Organization Of Convention Fund
For Year 1916.

The convention committee Of the
Marshalltown Club met Friday night
and discussed plans for the formation
of the so-called convention fund
which the club will endeavor to raise
to support the four convention which
this city hopes to entertain during the
coming year.
II carried out the plan suggested
last night, which was used successfully
at Cedar Rapids, will relieve the bust
ness men of the city from all annoy
ance occasioned by soliciting for each
convention as it comes. Citizens Will
be asked to give one amour. for the
entire fund. and will then be given
card certifying that they have sub
scrihed to the convention eund for the
entire year. The club will endeavor 10
raise between $500 and $4,000 in this
way. which will he sufficient for the
four conventions.
In Cedar Rapids $4,000 was raised
this way, and it was found by calcula-
ton that each delegate coming to that
city cost approximately ~ cents to
entertain, while 1.-THE city figured that
each delegate left at least So in the
CITY before he left In this way cons

head by q pitched ball. His nose was
broken by the accident, and he was
taken from the field. bleeding profusely.
He will probably be out Of the game for
some time. Richardson took his place
on the first sack, and retired seven men
without an error.
Visitors Score in First.
Marshalltown scored their lone run
in the initial inning when q high peg
by Kortum let Ryan go to second base

center, but wild pitch allowed the
second sacker to reach third, and he
scored on a clean single over second by
Durham.

walked and Kortum hit for two bases,
but nobody scored. In the next framS,
however, Weeks singled with one out.
Garrett ran for Weeks, and Fitzpatrick

day casc:" was an invariablc in
quiry put to prospective jurors by
Hogan, according to the Chicago
Tribune.
Thus unoonsciously was a strik-
ing tribute paid TO the high charac-
ter and powerful influence Of THE
MENACE. Ii was an involuntary
admission that THE MENACE has
such a reputation for truth and
fairness that its statements are
relied upon by its readers to the
extent that these would influence
their opinion Of a criminal case at
law. Truly, as a molder and di-
rector Of public opinion, as an
auxiliary of right and justice, and
as an influence for general good,
THE MENACE is a factor which
must be reckoned with in every
community in the land, even unto
its courts.
Is criminality in this country to
be divided by denominational lines?
Are there sectarian distinctions Of
crime? Are there Catholic crimi-
mails and Protestant criminals, per
SEP Are we to have Romish tribun-
ais, where guilt or innocence is
determined by the test Of church
affiliation? Ii is not a far cry from
Catholic juries for Catholics to
Catholic juries for Protestants-a
return of the Inquisition-which is
the ultimate aim of the Romish
cabal.
Query: Do their priests instruct
Catholics how TO vote in the jury
room, as well as at the polls?
Why Did Lorimer Changer
Lorimer, it should be borne in
mind, turned Catholic before he be-
came publicly involved with bank
insolvency, but while that catastro-
phe was impending. Can a logical
connection be made Of these SEEM
ingly significant circumstances? !?
Did he realize the potential help
fulness of a Catholic jury to q CO.
religionist charged With crime, and
forsee the possibility Of his personal
need for such succor? Possibly he
was influenced in his course by legal
rather than creedal considerations.
THE MENACE has no bias against
Roman Catholics charged with vio-
lation Of law. 1t insists that they
should be treated and tried the
same as other persons accused Of
crime. But il does maintain that
there must be no special court pro-
cedure to their individual ad-
vantage.
Patriotism" declared the cyni-
cal DR.. Samuel johnson, having in
mind the professional patriots in
England Of his day, SIS the last
refuge Of the scoundrel."
In America Of to-day this epi-
gram may fifty be paraphrased /:
Catholicism is the first refuge Of
the rascal"
But, after all, perhaps Mundsy
is within his rights in demanding
a jury Of Catholics-it is a consti-
tutional prerogative that he be tried
by a panel of his peers.
