The value of a catcher to a pitcher
was never better eXempIified than in
yesterdays game between the Cubs
and Pittsburgh, when Roger Bresna-
han acted as a stabilizer for George
Pierce, the southpaw with control
now and then.
A glance at the summary shows
that Pierce allowed the Pittsburghers
only three hits, and Immediately that
sounds like a sterling job of pitching.
1t was, but Bresnahan had a whole lot
to do with it. Pierce was wild as a
miIlionaire's son, and was continual
" in the hole to the batters. Six of
them drew the fourth ball, but it was
to those who failed to walk that he
was forced to do his best pitching.
On several occasions the count
was three balls and no strikes or

Charley White has been made a

for his battle tonight with Light

means White must score a knockout
for the title to change hands.
White has been slipping the dream

He may punish Welsh severely, but it
is not probable the champion will

spirit which in Germany mani

one and the same thing i'm the

Great Britain if she should con-
quer Germany and herself be con-

This thought is finely presented
by a writer i'm the Toronto Globe:

enough to stereotype the national
aspirations of humanity. No trace

world. No people are so near per-
lection that their culture is fit to

GOVERNMENT BY STATESMAN.
SHIP

There is a vast difference be-
tween government by statesman
ship and government by party.
Since the advent of President
/ Wilson into the White House,
there has been government by
craftsmanship, rather than gov
, eminent by party. The abnormal
/ conditions due to the great strug-
gle in Europe has disrupted and
torn asunder the regular order of
fiancing not only the warning ma
tions, but the world. No system of
taxation or financing is adequate
or certain during these abnormal
/ times. Neither a Democrat or a
! Republican fiscal policy, viewed
from party standpoint. would fit
for this country at this time. Well
aware of this fact President Will
| son will present in his message
to the onconin. session of Con-
SreSS a recommendation for tariff
REIMBURSEMENT in several respect :
+ that will be neither an exposition
of Democratic or Republican doc
uine, but "a recommendation to
meet present urgent conditions,
and which recommendation will
be a portrayal of a statesmans
Views and not the representa- ions
tn be made by party head.
During the continued abnormal
times President Wilson has time
and again had occasion To use
his craftsmanship and laying "a
side his party alliance he has
proved himself worthy of tile con-
tidence of the misses of the peO-
pie. AS statesman he has the
herculean task of keeping in hand
the delicate foreign and interna-
tional questions and bringing
them to successful conclusion,
which his record gives assurance
will be successfully accomplished,
and in addition to this task he has
the further burden as head Of the
nation to successfully guide the
country and it's legislative body
wisely in handling the business of
the country.
The president, like every other
human being. is not without err
ror. No man is perfect. but if one
views his wholer ecord as Chief
Executive of the nation. and takes
into consideration the abnormal
conditions that have prevailed
throughout the world, and then
bears in mind the fact that this
country is still at peace within
its own borders. is at peace with
all the world, and that tits sue
cessfully leading the thought Of
the world in the interest of hu-
manity. it is at once apparent that
as President Wilson has been at
all times a statesman and not a
mere party leader. Bitter parti-

a VERY GOOD SUGGESTION
One of the most timely surgas

one OF the most timely sugges-
tons that has been made up un-
til the recent time was made in
this city by a state official in q
recent visit to our city only a
short time ago. This man whose
name we will not mention, but who
is we'll known here, if we did
he might get in trouble at home,
but nevertheless here is what he
said:
Il have just been through your
courthouse here and l think that
it we'll BELTS your magnificent
county, but here is where am
puzzled: Why should all this
noise be made by the people OF
New Rockford about this state
having to build new capitol
building. Why with only a few
minor changes you could supply
the states wants for many years
to come and the state wouldn't
have to go to all that expense.
should think that you ought to
bring the matter to the attention
|of the proper authorities"
The above might be exaggerated
by this gentleman to very large
degree. but we think that there is
a great deal of truth in other re-
Spects in the above statement. If
such building would cause such
praise from state official whose
place of abode is in the present
capital, what will other strangers
think and say when they see this
structure of art. The more we see
this court house the more we
think that our money was well
spent to a very large degree.

Marriage Problems.

"Well, want to know whether it's
legal for man to marry his widows
niece?'
The vicar hesitated before vouchsaf-

it as his opinion that such marriage
would be perfectly legal.
That's satisfactory, sir, but would
it be possible for such marriage to
actually take placer" continued jerks.

"rHE ROSARY"

Telling story through which
runs a virile religious sentiment
that is heart-touching, and yet is
not of the nature to bring offens".
The Rosary, the play of Edward
+. Roses which proved such IA
big success last season, is repeat
ing this year with added brillian-
cy. While the central figure is that
of Catholic priest, the character
is SO drawn that the question of
sectarianism is not in any way
involved. Rev. Brian Kelly is pre-
scented as man of God, whose
greatest thought is the good he
can do for his fellowman of what
ever creed or of no creed, and Mr..
Frank kilday who fills the charac-
ter. seems to- have caught the au-
thor's inspiration in his concep-
ton of the role as the audience at
the Wahpeton Opera House will
see when the production is pre-
scented next Saturday, Nov. 9th.
He plays Il keen Irish sense of hu-
NOR and good will as foil tn
his pricstly calling. and thus is
able to solve the depths of do
mestic tragedy and restore hap
piness to home that is near de-
tsruction through the machina-
tinnS of a designing william who
seeks revenge because another
has won the woman he loves. He
watonly brings the loving wife in
to disrepute. after running her
sister and also plots the wreckiny
OF the fortunes of his successful
rival. who believes him a stead
fast friend. 1t is the office of the
priest to unravel the tangle and
restore tranquility. perfecting IL
moral that should be witnessed
by everybody, as we'll as enjoyed.
The cast chosen for the presenta-
ton. consisting of Edith Win
chester, Oliver Hinsdell, Gerald
Clute, Lee Orland, Florence Keen,
Bud Schatfer. Bess Marshall, Will
liam Corners and Harry Gotschall
is capable one without excep-
ton. and the scenic equipment of
the production is beautiful as we'll

show is a credit to Rowland and
Clifford. who have six companies

NO NATION FIT TO DOMINATE

Whichever side wins in the
great war now raging, America
has something tOapprehend. some
thing to guard. The worst things
that may happen may not be that
the war should continue some
months longer. IL has sometimes
happened that wars have stopped
too soon. There are those who be-
lieve that the Russo-.Japanese war
stopped sooner than it ought
that if il had continued few
weeks longer. Japan would have
been far less self-cOulident and
Russia would have started a back

dation would have been laid for an
abiding peace.

why not. The local team has not
enough money to guarantee their

real fans will donate fifty cents
toward ticket we think that en-
ough money can be raised to see
that Casselton can be brought
