FRATERNAL LEAGUE
MAY DISBAND SOON
With But Two Weeks to Go II Is
Hoped That Teams Will Fin
ish Race for Cups.

The Fraternal Baseb ball league is at
present travelling over the rocky path
that leads to destruction. Interest is
on the Wane and although the season
is but two weeks longer there is some
doubt as to whether the league will
disband before that time. Should the
league disband before the close of the
season it probable that the Red Men
and the Jr. O. U. A. nj. Will play three
games for the championship trophies.
At the Moose club there will be a
meeting CT the Fraternal league base
ball managers tonight at o'clock and
all should attend. There is a protest
ed game from the Moose and the Jr.
Q. u. A. NJ, played on August 1 and
this will be acted upon tonight. Fur
Their plans and a schedule will be act
ed upon as we'll.

During the first round 1T was APP
parent that neither man was trying
to do anything except deliver an oc-
casional love tap and the gallery fans
shouted to the men to do something.
When the second round was nearly
over. tho fighters must have realized
that the spectators were not gong to
stand for such fake and Bell began
to show SIGNS of distress. He tried
TO simulate weakness and gave poor
imitation of a man who IS all in.
F,vnn hit him several times but not
enough to hurt him and the referee
finally stopped the bout giving as his
reason that Bell laid down. And
this was the end of what was con-
fdentlv looked forward to as a good
card.
The attendance must have been in
the neighborhood of 1000 and there
were a number of distinguished men

lratively the same as those who were
not SO distinguished. Chief of Police
Smith was present but had no Occa-

hard time keeping men from walking

SLATON HITS BACK
AT ATLANTA MAYOR
Ex-Governor Condemns WOOdWard's
Address i'll Defense of Lynchers OF
F'rank-Going Back to Georgia.

San Francisco, Aug. I9.-Former
Governor John M. Slaton of Georgia,
who committed the death sentence Of
Leo M. Frank to one OF life i'm
prisonment, issued late yesterday a
statement condemning an address de-
livered Tuesday night by Mayor J. G..
Woodward of Atlanta, Ga, and term
:ng the mayor "old and garrulous."
He called the Frank case football
Of politics."
Commenting on Mr.. Woodward S
statement that three-rourths. of the
people of Georgia, inc1uGlng himself,
believed Frank guilty and con-
doned the lynching, Mr.. Station said:
Similar utterance made before the
iynching naturally resulted in subse-
uuent lawlessness. In one breath he
proposes to defend the fair name of
Atlanta and Georgia, and In the next
breath he casts on them the most
terrible condemnation.
Mayor woodward suggested that
could not with safety return tic
Georgia within a year. Such a state
nlent is not only a gross reflection or
the state, but is absurd and is further
stimulative of the mob impulse com
mg from an official who should stan<
in favor of law and orGer. 1t is il
accordance with utterances of other
who expect to utilize the Frank cas-
for political preferment
81 was born in Georgia and I low

original intentions.
II think Mayor Woodwards state
ment is an affront TO the people O
Georgia instead Of :. derense. He

'WORKERSINCHESTER
SHOP turn YELLOW
Officials Deny Making Chlorine
Liquid for Warning Nations

Chester, Aug. 19.-Despite the de-
malls often issued by authorities of
the "Yellow Works." here that they
are making liquid chlorine gas. for
use by the belligerents in Europe, the
residents of the state are daily becom-
ing more and more convinced that the
plant is actually manufacturing this
life destroying gas. 1t is said to be
manufacturing aniline dyes by the
authorities of the little mysterious
factory which employees about IS
hands, and that is as far as anyone
knows. The plant is guarded night
and day, and there is no admission to
the factory except for the workmen.
Night and day the factory is in
operation. There are three eight
hour shifts, and most of the employees
are men who have been taken from
low paid toiler's jobs, and who now
instead Of working for 10 or - hours
a day digging trenches or something
Of that nature are earning four dol
lars a day for working an eight-1our
shift There are some who work two
shifts a day and earn IS day, put
none of them have stayed long. They
keep going for while and then drop
out The "Yellow shop" is too much
for them.
En,DloyCs Turn Yellow.
The reason for this name that has
been aDDied to the nameleSS factory
by the residents of the vicinity is that
every man who works there, for any
length Of time turns yellow. Not
that he shows what is commonly
known in slang as g. yellow streak
but no matter how rudy and healthy
in appearance he may be when he
starts. in a few weeks is skin has
become as sallow and yellow as that
of the yellowest Chinaman. His hair
even though it is jet black, when he
starts, gets yellow tinge. 1t is not
long before he can be distinguished on
the street as one of the employees of
the yellow Shop
The "Yellow Shop doesn't hold
most of it's employees long. They go
there healthy and sound and attract
ed by the pay that is offered. They
think they can stand the work, but
usually they leave soon, yellow and
with their systems filled with poison.
Sometimes they carry one out of the
building and let him lie on the ground
for q while in a stupOr until he recov-
ers from the gas poisoning he has re-
ceived.
Destination Not Solved.
The destination of the product of
the company has not been solved by
the townspeople up to date. The Con-
necticut river boat does not receive
it and neither does the New Haven
roads Valley branch. It is loaded
onto auto trucks and taken to New
York There it seems, nobody who
can tell, will tell what happens to it.
Various stories have come from the
works brought out by workmen who
are usually as secretive as their en-
ployers. They tell of one room to
which no one is admitted except the
men who do the work in it, and they
are the most trusted employees or the
establishment. They are not allowed
to enter it, it is said, with any piece OF
metal about them, working in SUITS
that resemble union suits and having
no metal buttons or fastenings.

THE oLEOMARGARINE SCANDAL.

The internal revenue department
estimates that in the last - years the
government has been cheated out Of
$27.OOO.OOO in oleomargarine taxes.
The swindling has been practiced by
some 5000 dealers. AZ OF whom
have been sent TO prison for the Of
Tense since the beginning OF the pres
ent year
The violatOrs of the law undoubted-
~ merited their punishment for
cheating the government and taking
advantage of honest competitors. But
the very magnitude of this system Of
law-breaking seems due largely to the
fact that the government has created
an artificial crime and laid a heavy
tribute on honesty in a matter where
cOncealment is easy
Ii is lawful to make oleOmargarine
1t is lawful to sell It, uncolored if
an internal revenue tax of half cent
pound is paid If it is colored to
resemble butter. TIE tax is raised to
10 cents a pound The temptation is
obvious. 1t leads TO coloring the
'oleo" surreptitiously. and selling the
artificial product as real butter. where
by the dealer not only saves the
amount of the tax but gets a higher
price.
At the same time, a fundamental in
justice is worked on the public. even
when no deception is practiced. There
is a big demand for oleOmargarine. 1t
is a good. wholesome food product in
some respects superior 10 butter. The
coloring matter makes it more pleas
ing to the eye and therefore more
palatable. II can be sold. colored. far
cheaper than genuine butter, if the
heavy tax is removed There is a
growing feeling that the surtax for
the cOlored product is unwarranted.
Why not abolish the arbitrary and re-
stricting 10-cent tax. and let oleomar-
garine be sold as it used to be. at it's
normal market price. merely providing
that there shall be no concealment of
its real nature?

HOPE AT LAST.

At last the great white plague
shows signs of coming defeat at the
hands of the enemy. The death rate
large is showing a decided decrease.
This, however. is over a long period
of years In 1880 the rate was 326
per 1000 population. and in 1913 it
was 1866 per 1000.
This gain in life-saving does not
come from any marvellous cure" but
simply from a long. gruelling strug-
gle in educating public opinion in mat
iers of hygiene. 1t means that nearly
twice as many people now believe in
the value Of fresh air. sunshine and
nourishing food in their every day
lives as in 1850.
One hundred and fOrty-six per 1000
is not a cheerful rate 10 contemplate.
even though it is better than 326. II
means that one out of every 10 people
of ones acquaintance is going to die
of tuberculosis until it improves. But
the fact that it is improving means
that the same procedure must con-
tinue 10 be followed with more and
more vigor The national association
for the study and prevention OF tn
berculosis recommends increased care
in respect 10 milk, building regula-
tons. dust and fumes from industrial
processes. compulsory notification to
health authorities of every recognized
case cleaning by vacuum wherever
possible. discouragement OF marriage
of infected persons and isolation Of
patients.
Some OF these methods may cause
Inconvenience. or even sorrow. But
every good thing demands its price.
Sacrifice is worth while if il means
the determination OF tuberculosis.

WELCOME TIE NAIL CARRIERS

The coming of the Indiana mail car
riers and clerks TO South Bend the
last OF this week. should be a matter
of interest 10 everyone. and an inter-
est Of sufficient magnitude to assure
them a hearty welcome. They are our
servants in a very unanimous sense.
We should show them a good time.
The mail clerk and the mail carrier
are among the most indispensaLl c
of our social and business life. At
a minimum of expense the government
retains him at our command TO deliv-
er our MESSAGE ord carry our parcels
We could not get along without him.
Now. with the rural mail established
the carrier becomes an important
connecting link between the city and
the country. South Bend should
awaken to this coming convention and
give the visitors a hearty reception.
We cannot expect To make much of
a convention city of this unless we be-
come more conventional in our enter
tainment. The Chamber of Com
merce should have a convention fund.
but Of course, it cannot have one un-
less the public provides it. The max
ing of a city consists of something
more than politics and building mon
uments of social distinction to plu-
tocrats. The Indiana mail clerks and
carriers are deserving.
