While local interest in baseball was slow in start ing this year made up for los, time when did be gin to move Tomorrow the season win begin. and Manager Radonich says that going to have more of it this year than ever before.
 That the public was ready for the activity is shown by the success of the Douglas and Juneau baseball car nivals through which funds have been secured for pre- llunary purposes This interest Is due. io She main of course to interest the game itself but the cir cumsance that the prospect that the Gastneau channel towns will be given another opportunity to witness really good baseball this year has added to the interest
 The activity and Che interest are both favorable indications They give glimpse of the healthy opti- msm that prevails in this neck of the woods and they hold out the promise Of entertainment that is worth while
 Baseball is clean sport one that requires skill. athletic prowess. quick thinking and good judgment. It is one that displays all good points in the players and exposes their weakness Popularity gained at the game is based on merit both to capabilities and as to character And is played in the open air It is worth all the interest that the average American takes in if

THE WORST OF WAR
(New York worldl


 The woman here and in England who describe the "war-baby" agitation idle. hysterica exaggerated and mischievous may err on the side of indifference bu, they at least are willing look facts in the face Along with some admirable human qualities, de- veops train of evils. and this is only one of them.
 Tragic as is the battle field it is the best part of war Even there all is not heroic as stragglers from every fight fully attest TO bring great armies into conflict however there must be months In camp. and there never was great military camp that not more demorazing than many battle. What Britain sees now is some Of the evils of the camp.
 In the course of time it will witness other sorrow ul proofs that war lets loose every wicked passion that is known to men Grief for the dead will be assuaged the mamed win presently be objects of lit te interest but the tens of thousands broken health victims of bad habits and unsettled in their ideas of life and industry will be visible everywhere In busi ness in politics in government in society and in the church war will leave marks of corruption that may never be obliterated.
 Although fifty years have passed since the close Of our civil strife we still paying the price in many ways We take pride in our strengthened nationality and our progress in wealth and and that the war was worth all that it but that is not to admit that those who brought the struggle upon us were not chargable with an offense against mankind that is wholly incalculable.
 Soldiers who have seen service sometimes talk of battle but rarely of the camp. the march and the trench The glamour Of attaches wholly to blood she'd The curse of war. as Britain is finding out rests not so much upon heroic armies in action up on nations stripped Of morals and seeped in excesses upon peoples who have lost their bearings. and upon governments that yield to greed and graft
