LET US COME TOGETHER
IN BEHALF OF THE PARTY

We still insist that the Democratic
platform convention should have
been held before the nominees were
chosen, so that the people rather
than the candidates could have laid
down the platform of principles.
But 1t was not done, and the candi-
dates are OF one mind on most of the
Important matters. The convention
itself will be rather a tame affair in
consequence, but We would like To
see a great outpouring OF Democrats
In Louisville on August 81. We can
shake hands and exchange ideas and
renew acquaintance of the long ago.
Since this new-fangled system of
primaries has been in vogue. the
boys In the trenches have been per-
mitted to do nothing but the voting.
and generally then just as the bosses
told us. We didn't know what was
going to happen until after II had
happened. Then We were called on
10 ratify IL at the polls.
In Louisville We can all meet
again and talk matters over face TO
ace. We can exchange reminis-
fences OF the days long past.
Moreover (and that is the one I'M
'ortant work OF the convention). We
AN put the skids under the Big
'hief.-lBowlin Green Messenger.

Boston, Oct. 12.-The master pitch CT of his day, Grover Cleveland Alex ander of Philadelphia was toppled off his pedestal yesterdays heart-break- ing blow to the ambitions of the Phil lies in their pursuit of the baseball supremacy of the world. The fury of Boston bats broke tha spell of the big pitchers speed and curves. He was buried under to defeat,while the hardest hitters an9ong his Quaker teammates. Instead of coming to the rescue on he attack, were amazingly rnystifsed by the blinding southpaw pitching of Dutch Leonard
 The scenek yesterday afternoon at the new Braves Field has never been equaled in the long history of the na- ttonal game. The massive arena was filled with about 45,00O people. The spacious stands and bleachers, looking down from; the press aerie. with their thousands and thousands of small white spots which represented faces looked more like a great Orfen- ~tal figured carpet.
 1 The game was another nip-and-tuck struggle, a tie game. deadlocked at 1 ! to 1, right up to the last part of the
 more tense contest. The strain then became too much on the nervess of Alexander He knew that he was carrying yon his shoulders the whole , responsibility of thS Phi1lies' hopes.

PHIL LIES IN BAD POSITION AS FOURTH
 GAME COMMENCES

Boston. Oct 12AThe statute books Of Massachusetts name October 12s as a legal holiday in zBenory of the birth Of Christopher Go1umb bus. Un= written law in BostoI stamped the day this year as aShef fday in honor of the worlds series baseball con tenders. Another tre14endous crowd fhronged the apProac1es to Braves Field for the fourth ga a1e of the title test Between the Red iSox and the PhIllies, and countless thousands had no other plan for the tay than to be where they could fo1lew the play
 The balance of the series having swung in favor of the Red Sox. two terdag the contendina-. mines went into the fourth tilt today with a new mental adjustlnent. The PhI1lies were forced into a def.snsive position and they were beset by the all-im- portant question of winning today. a single game the problem of the sRhil1ies was not aZsinap1e one. Victory : today would put the Red Sox within one game Of capturing the series.
 Two leading Phi1ade1phia twirlers, untried in the series thus far, were subjects of consideration by Manager Moran. Chalmers, right-hander, veteran of several league campaigns, was thought to be the one most like 1y to be chosen to try to stop the rush of the Red Sox- His delivery, which sends the ball to the plate in a low, evasive line, icutting corners closely. has been successful to an un- usual degree at times Eppa Jeptha Rixey was the other possibility.
 LeonArd's successes against the Phillies yesterday demolished the theory that they would fall heavily upon .Ieft-nanders. and Manager Car rigan said he felt certain that Ruth could win if he were started. Carri gan said that, whether his decision brought Shore or Ruth into the game he would not himself be in the line up this afternoon As catcher for Leonard yesterday he was big fac tor in the formers pie-ehing which retired the Phi1lies in order after the third inning.

Jitney Baseball Only Dream Claims Business
 Manager of Phillies

Its all a dream. Ife we tried to play 10-cent baseball we could close our gates and discharge our players It can't be done. and any league at tempting it looks only for advertising and puts itself in a position to- com init involuntary suicide
 This is the comment of William J. Shettsfine,5 business manager of the Philadelphia National League club, in discussing the subject of big leagues pastiming for two .'jitneys-'' Shettsline, through his long associa- ton with the. national game is in a po- sitiop to be well acquainted with the facts he quoted in connection with cheap baseball.
 Its fo1l 5ta1k,' said the Phillies' business manager. "A man with any common sense. knows that, so; why should I display signs of ignorance by telling that it can't be done?"
 In supplying his reasons why "tit cannot be done" Shettsline said:
 t'It will average $1.0oo day to run average team. Some clubs may cost a little less; some a little moreh That depends on the salaries they pay and the fixed charges they have to bear. But I guess it's a i lucky club that will go through a sea- son for less than $15O,OO0 don't believe there is one in the two big leagues. The schedule calls for 154 games, so you see it figures up about | $1,000 per game.''
 What is the average crowd at a big league game ?''
 That is a question it is impossible for me to answer he replied. stI will not try to answer it, but I see what is aimed at, so I will try to assist in solving the query. Under the pres ent arrangement in our league, and the same. applies in the American League, the visiting club, gets one half the b1eacher admissions and 25 cents on every other seat. This means that in all 75-cent seats the home club keeps 50 cents, and on the dollar seats they get 75 cents. All the quarter and half dollar admis- sions are divided.
 Say we had a crowd of 10,0 900 to- morrow. About 5000 would be in the bIeachers. They would pay into the gate $1,25o, or $625 for each club. The 50-cent seats might contain about 2,000, which would mean $1,000, or $500 for each club. The other 5000 would be in the better seats, and we will fix them all at 75 cents, which would give the total paid in $2,250. The home club would get $1,5o0 and might add $100 more by. selling box seats at $1. That makes the total re- ceipts $4,60O, which is divided $2,725 for the home club and $1,875 for the visitors. Now, suppose this same crowd saw the game on a ten cent basis. Here are the figures we

.LECORE BACK
 AT FULLBACK
 ON YALE TEAM

New Haven, Oct. 12-Frank Hin key, head football coach at Yale, threw overheard some of his old ideals about coaching a football team and issued a, hurry-up call to former Yale football players to come bnck and help coach the varsity eleven.
 It is the first time that such an invitation has been sent out since Hinkey came to Yale as head coach Jim Rogers, captain of the Yale team of '97 and veteran tackle, will be the first to reach the scene of trouble. ~
 Another radical step taken yester-- day was the transfer of Capt Aleck Wilson from right halfback, where he has been playing all season. to quarterback, the post he held last year and on his freshman and. school teams.
 Harry Legore, whose dash and passing ability was one of Yale's big gest assets last season, but who has been playing on the scrub eleven this year, until Saturday, was given a. reg ular place at fullback on the vars ity.
 Charlie Taft, former President Taft's second son, got left halfback position. Young Taft's work in catching the forward pass, which made possible Yale's touchdown Sat urday pleased the coaches Smith took the other half yesterday.
 Wilson fell back into the ways of a quarterback without any trouble and the new combination worked admir- ably during the brief signal drill. There was lots of snap and life to the work and a jingle of frosty weather helped things along. The coaches seemed more satisfied than they have been in two weeks.
 Bud" Talbot, one of the coaches, said that Capt. Wilson would remain at quarterback the rest of the season unless other quarterback material could be developed. Thompson and Bentley. the only candidates now available, are considered failures.
