giving him much personal attention.
Adams and Schorr, pitching tor the
regulars, were wilder than the claims
Of campaign manager, but Roger
made them stick to it. Each dealt
out passes literally, forcing in runs.
The seconds won, 4 to 3.
Out on the coast the White Sox got
the exhibition season started with
bang, the first team downing Los An
geles, Z to 5, and the second putting
the bee on Oakland, 8 to 0.
Felch, Bromwich and Brief, the
recruits of the first line, did nice
job of work. Felch punched three
singles, Brief wopped triple, and
BrOmwich hung up one single, be-
sides grabbing every chance at third
base. Ray SchaIk topped all batters
with a triple and three singles, and
Eddie Collins knocked a triple.
Jasper, johnson and Scott did the
pitching, and the first-named was the
best of the trio, allowing two hits in
three innings. He also famed five.
The seconds, a strong ball team in
spite of their lOwly appellation,
walked on Oakland, Blackburne's
triple and single helping to turn the
trick. Lathrop, ScrOggins and Faber
gave five hits between them.
. A report is current that Joe Berger,
utility man for the last two years,
will be left with the Venice team of
the Coast league when the Sox come
east. Joe made his reputation on
the coast and was regarded as a bet
ter shOTtstop than Buck Weaver in
the minors. When he came up to the
big show, however, Buck had secured
the jump and there has never been a
chance for Berger to supplant him.
The coming of Eddie Collins and
Bromwich makes the retention of
Berger unnecessary, as Rowland will
have BlackbUTne, Bromwich and Bre-
ton from which to pick a third base

This fellow, former captain and
shortstop of the Honolulu Chinese
team, was billed for a try-out with
the White Sox on the Pacific coast,
but nothing has been heard of him
since the Sox went into spring camp.
The yellow man was regarded as the
star of the foreign legion, but aPpar-
emily he gave up hope after seeing
Buck Weaver snagging grounders
between second and third.

the grant, and after pledging it for
security for the funds necessary to
satisfy the claims of the railroad conf
pany, deed the lands to the state for
the benefit Of the school fund.
The grant, of course, would be ta-
ken over by the state subject to the
mortgage Indebtedness which could
be cleared in due time through the
sales of timber Under state owner
ship the control of the grant would
pass to the state land board and as
It could undoubtedly be handled with
little or no increase Of force in that
department the cost of administration
would be reduced to the minimum.
If such n plan should be followed
and the state come into the owner
ship of the grant the non-timbered
lands fit for settlement should be
thrown open to entry at once to bona
fide settlers at little or no cost. Such
non-tlmbered tracts as were found
unfit for settlement should be held
by the state with view of reforesta-
ton
The timber on the timbered lands
should he appraised and in due time
sold IN suitable sized tracts to highest
hI1ers ana ou condition that it be rec

be found eft for settlement This
area would be sufficient TO provide
homes for over 1000 families allowing
160 acres to each.
No matter by whom the dlsposi-
ton OF the lands is undertaken the
situation plainly calls for a careful
classification Of che lands not only
AS TO agricultural possibilities but as
to timber and minerals. Such infor-
nation gathered and made available
to tho public would aid greatly in the
early development Of the resources
covered by the grant lands
In arriving at some definite plan
or policy looking to the solution Of
this great problem which faces you
today there appears to be but three
avenues OF approach;
1. Through the railroad company
2. Through the federal government
3. Through the state.
Should congress fail to take the ac-
tion suggested by the supreme court
we will be left to the tender mercles
OF a railroad company which will
have less reason than ever to change
its past policies Is its tax burdens will
undoubtedly be lightened by reason
OF the courts ruling 10 the effect that

/ moved within a certain period. AS
faht as the timber was removed from
tract Of land II should, If suitable
for such purposes be thrown open to
settlement Lands unfit for settle
ment from which the timber had
been removed should be held for the
purpose Of reforestation.
In the consideration Of the conten-
tions Of the railroad company we
should keep in mimi that the court in
enjoining further sales Of the lands
had this to say of past Illegal sales.
"In view Of the disregard Of the
covenants and gain Of Illegal emolu-
ments, and In view Of the govern
ment's interest in the exact observ-
ance Of them 1t might seem that re-
strlctlons upon the future conduct OF
the railroad company and its various
agencies is imperfect relief; but the
government has not asked for more"
II also said.
This suit was brought. it is al
legged, to determine the rights and
remedies as to the unsold lands and
that subsequently other suits will be
instituted as to the sold lands, rights
and remedies as TO them being IN
effect reserved, Therefore, the de-
cree in this suit shall be without pre-
judice to any other suits, rights or
remedies which the government may
have by law
In analyzing the claims of the rail
road company with a view Of arriv-
ing at the amount which is Justly due
them We should keep in mind the H.
legal sales which have been made and
remember that it had In the begin
ming a no greater equity in the grant
than $S,000,000; that its receipts
from sales, leases. etc, amount to
over IS, 900, leaving a balance due
of less than 100000; that If the
prevailing rate of assessment and tax
alton had been applied to said equity
of $S,O00.000 during the years 1872
TO 1915 its tax payments would have
equaled if not exceeded the amount
1t claims it has paid TO date; that the
administration expense of the COM
pany claims to have incurred was Of
its own making and can be properly
charged as against its equity in the
lands. These facts, however, should
not stand in the way of the state
making. liberal allowances to the
company should negotiations be en-
tered into with a tiew of purchasing
the grant.
In conclusion let me suggest that
whatever plan may be submitted to
YOU by the governor Of our state
should receive your most careful con
jsderation. Chosen by the people as
chief executive and by virtue of his
office, chairman. Of the state land
board, his hands should be upheld
and he should be given every oppor-
tunity to advance those policies which
in his opinion VIII make for the best
interests of our people.

to entry of every acre of land suitable
for settlement; for the early open
ing to development Of all mineral re-
sources; for the sale of all merchant
able timber in appropriate sized
tracts to the highest bidders, giving a
reasonable time for removal, thus
adding taxable property to our rolls;
for the payment Of the claims Of the
several land grant counties for taxes
due and unpaid for the past three
years; and for the turning over to our
state school fund all unexpended rev.
enues derived from timber sales that
we may have ample funds to develop
our irrigation projects and assist our
small farmers and struggling settlers
throughout the state with needed
loans at low rates OF interest.
| am we'll aware of the fact how
ever, that it would only be through
the best of good fortune that these
concessions could be secured and It
is because of the difficulty we would
likely have in securing such favorable
action at the hands Of congress once

grant that ! have been prompted to
advocate the acquisition Of the lands

ed that the railroad must accept the
sum Of $3.50 per acre and give up
the lands the company will undoubt-
edly find It to its interest to let title
pass to the state rather than to the
federal government for such action
would result in a large revenue for
the school fund and insure a reduc-
ton Of some of the company's tax
burdens
In view Of these exciting circum-
stances and conditions | deem 1t good
business and for our best interest that
the state offer TO take over the grant
and reimburse the railroad company.
Such a program would be greatly sim
plified If congress could be induced to
advance the funds necessary to satis-
fy the claims of the railroad and
await repayment until the state could
secure the funds through the negotla-
ton Of timber sales.
II, however, congress should be
found unwilling to advance the funds
it would, in view of our constitution
al restrictions as TO state indebted
ness, devolve upon the friends of such
a movement to devise means for fl
nancing the undertaking.
l would suggest that this might be
done, through the organization of a.
holding company to consist of the
governor, secretary Of state, state
treasurer, attorney general a repre-
sentative of our farmer organizations,
a representative of our labor organ
izations. and a representative of our
commercial organizations.
This holding company could, with
the consent of congress, take over

itsequity is limited to $3.50 per acre.
The company will be in a position.
and will surely be content, to patient
ly await the coming OF some friendly
congress and the removal Of the re-
strictions which now prevent it from
realizing the full value Of the lands.
Should the federal government de-
eide TO satisfy the claim Of the rail-
road company and take upon itself
the administration OF the grant we
may, unless congress legislates to the
contrary, expect to see policies ad-
opted which will be about as follows:
l. All timbered lands and such
non-timbered lands as are not suit
able for settlement would be added
to our national forests and the non
tmbered lands adopted to settlement
would be opened to entry to bonafide
settlers; or
2. Only such timbered and nom
timbered lands as are unfit for settle
ment would be reserved and the bal
ance would be open to settlement
the non-timbered tracts at once and
the timbered tracts as soon as the
timber thereon could be disposed Of
and removed
If we would demand more liber-
al policy at the hands of the govern
ment, one which will make for the
greater interest Of the state, then
some feasible plan should be careful
ly outlined by this conference and
presented to congress through our
delegation.
As / view it. any suggested policy
should provide for the early classifi
cation OF the lands; for the opening

A PRACTICAL, NOT A LEGAL
 QUESTION
 Chicago Herald)

The British use of the American nag on merchant ships to escape pur- suit or capture raises Q practical quos' ton rather than m issue of interna- .ional law
 The official statement of the Brit. ish foreign office sets forth the legal aspects. It is quite true that the use of @ neutral flag to escape destruction is not forbidden by any rule Of in. ternational law or any international government.
 It is also possibly true that in na- val wars under circumstances hereto fore familiar such a use of neutral flag by a merchant vessel would not be like.y to prejudice interests of the nation whose fiag was thus employed.
 But we are confronted with naval war of an unfamiliar sort. We are confronted with the declaration of @ benigerent that it Intends to resort to methods against an enemy that will expose neutral nations to extra haz- cards. In short. with Q situation in which the employment of our flag on Great Britain's merchant vessels will materially prejudice our interests.
 Under such circumstances Great Britain should assuredly discontinue the use of our flag as Q matter of international comity. Out of Q prop CT regard for Q neutral nation she should decline to avail herself of the methods which are calculated to in. jure # unnecessary.
 The communication from Washing ton on this subject should be conceiY- ed in this sense. It is too late ap attempt to establish 9 new rule of international law But Is is . good

"wlTH NEITHER PRIDE NOR PASSION"
 (Chicago Herald.)
-


 Former President Taft in Q Wash. ington birthday address at Morris town. N. J, gave counsel meet for the times to every American.
 Calling attention to tho various in- novations of the Europeans belliger- ents upon formerly accepted rules of international law with respect to neu- traf. commerce and to the fact that tho serious invasion of our rights thus threatened brings us "laco to face with crisis" Mir Taft contin- ued:
 When their violation results in
 the destruction of tho lives of
 American citizens, or of American
 property, a grave issue will arise.
 The responsibility Of the Presl-
 dent and Congress in maintaining
 our national rights and our na- tionaI honor on tho one hand, with
 due regard to the awful conse-
 quences to our sO,000,0o0 people
 of engaging in this horrible war
 on the other will be very great.
 It involves Q judgment SO mo-
 mentous that We should earnealy
 pray that the necessity for it may
 be nverted. IT, however. the oc-
 casion arises. We can be confi-
 dent that those in authority will
 be actuated by the highest pat
 riouc motives and by the deepest concern for our national welfare.
 We must not allow our pride or momentary passion to influence
 our judgment. We must exercise the deliberaton that the fatal com sequences necessarily impose. We
 must allow no jingo spirit to pre-
 vail We must abide the Judgment
 of those to whom we have intrust-
 ed the authority, and WHEN
 THE PRESIDENT SHALL ACT
 WE MUST STAND BY HIM TO
 THE END.
 That Is wise counsel. the only coun- sef for every loyal American. He is no American who may refuse so to govern his thoughts, words and ac' lions. Any day something may occur that may thrust upon us tho choice between submitting-tor the time to some outrage and war in defense of our national rights and honor. Lot neither pride nor passion rule then.
 The way Of safety and the way of honor is to abide by the decision of the patient and patriotic President to whom we have intrusted authority and upon whom falls this fateiul re- sponsibiiity. When that decision ia made We may be absolutely sure 1t IS right and must stand by 1t to the end
