Bv RICHARD F.. LUssIER

After making the "wenk sisters" of the league eat out of his hand Tor seven innings, inc GuIIs jumped on Ar thur Johnson in the eighth and. mad drove the Swedish prince from the box in the ninth, hut fell just one run short of winning because Dick Robert son topped the ambitious rally by pitching only one ball which "Dutch" Charlie Scbmidt grounded out. The score was 5 to 4.
 As on the day previous, the ninth vas a thriller. It started with. the Gulls two runs behind. Carl Flick opened the session with a single to right and Sloan, who was having an off day in the field, juggled the ball, allowing Flick to reach second Burke conveniently flied out to-Cecil Coombs, but Clayton Perry lifted a high in field fly to Lindsay. who inglorious- ly muffed it and Baronial affairs as- sumed a dubious outlook. Calhoun grounded to Ellam, who threw to Clark, forcing Perry, but Clark was unable to get the ball to Carroll fast enough to complete a double play.
 Dobard Hits Double
 With two out and two on bases it looked like an easy victory for the Barons especially as Dobard, a weak hitter, was up, However, Dobard spilled the beans by sending a scream ing double over Lindsay's head which Tol &1.;., A this point Manager Molesworth dis played excellent judgment by retiring Johnson to the cooler as the big Swede was evidently upset by the liberties the Gulls were taking with his slants.
 With Calhoun on third, Dobard on second and Manager Charlie Schmidt, always a dangerous hitter, up Dick Robertson. the relief pitcher. faced a difficult task. The diminutive spit boiler consulted with his infield and, after waving the outfielders back, pre-. pared to deliver the ball. There was short wind-up and red -sleeved arm swished forward out of which shot the white pellet straight and true for the plate. There Schmidt squatted and as the ball came by he swung but just clipped the top of it and the pill rolled slowly toward the pitchers box. Rob ertson picked it up and dropped 1t. Without losing his temper Robbie picked up the ball and calmly threw it to Carroll for the final out and vic- tory for the Barons.
 The other runs made by the Gulls were scored in the first and eighth. In the first Northen lifted high fly to right and, Sloan muffed it. For some strange reason the official scorer charged Sloan with an error for this. On Millers sacrifice Northen went to third and scored on Burke's triple.
 Johnson Pitches Great Ball
 Johnson pitched. masterly ball until the eighth when, with one out, Schmidt singled and Pitcher Karr hit a home run along the groove.
 As for the Baronial runs, they were all made in the first on five hits, ir- cluding a triple by Jack Wallace which scored three runs
 Carroll opened the first by singling to left Magee grounded out. advanc- ing Carroll Coombs singled to center, scoring Carroll Sloan singled to cen ter. Lindsay singled to right, scoring Coombs.

MULCT LAW REPEAL
EFFECTIVE JULY a?
This 10 Question Which Some Of Dry
Forces In State Have Raised
Again.

| The question as to whether or not
the repeal Of the mulct law became
defective on July has bobbed UP
lagain. Some of the drys in the state
claim that It was effective then and
that bars have been in operation II.
LEGALLY since that time. Here Is what
| a Des Moines papers says of the mat
| ter:
"Did the law repeating the mulct
law go into effect July 4, 1915, and are
the saloons now being operated IN
Iowa Illegally?
This question is being raised By
prominent temperance workers OF the
state. Attorneys have been consulted
with the view of instituting action
in some wet county to enjoin the op-
Grafton Of the grog shops.
This action would bring about n
test OF the mulct law repeal before
January !. 1916, the date fixed In the
law for it's becoming effective.
Several months ago the vets In
northern city sent out word that the
mulct law repeal was invalid for the
reason that it fixes January l, 19l6, as
/ the date of taking effect. The liquor
men commended that the constitution
provides that all laws shall so into
effect July 4, unless ordered to he
come effective on publication. They
| claim that no provision is made for
inserting in law date 1T shall GO
into effect.
"The faction Of the drys which has
been studying the matter declares
that If the contention Of the vets y
correct, the section Of the repeal law
designating January /. 1916. as the Ell
fective date, is invalid. Therefore the'
assert the law must have gone into
effect July 4 last.
| "The temperance people interested
1 in the new development say they are
willing to so into the courts to tes
the proposition with the vets. They
contend that placing the date In the
GARRISON law might invalidate tina
I particular section of the measure, bu
that it would not effect the remainder

Address Before

lowing Address, Of Scenes

Navy.

Takine as his keystone argument
Tho words uttered by George Washing
ton 4 century and quarter ago. The
hest way to assure peace Is to pre-.
mare for war" William Matler Lewis,
teld secretary Of the Navy league o.
tbe United States, gave a forceful al.
dress on the needs OF the United
states navy last evening at the high
school before the meeting OF the
local branch Of the National Security
league.
Mr.. Lewis argued his subject from
both sides, not only presenting the
needs OF a larger and better equipped
navy for the United States but quoting
The most forceful arguments of he
paci6cists and then picking them to
pIeces In the light Of his own words.
The speaker took up infinitely the
details OF United States history so fai
as warfare on land and sea were con
cerned and showeu that the lack Of
proper armament and q navy had been
exceptionally costly in all wars but
one.
After being introduced by Major D
B. Hamill provisional chairman, Mr
Lewis launched direct into his argu
ment. AT the outseta he predicted
that the subject in hand would be the
yredominating one at the next presi
Dental election and that 1t was GER
tainly the most vital one before the
public today.
Not New Organization.
He told his hearers that the Navy
league was not new organization at
fected because Of the European war
but that 1t had been in existence for ]
period OF thirteen years and had been
growing each year and carrying out 8
more extensive campaign The speak
er stated that the people OF the United
States were the most behind OF AL in
considering national questions, es
recially In reference to the army and
navy and that the object of the Navy
league was to open their eyes to the
ree1s Of the country.
This is not to be accomplished By
Jir ycisnl,' he said, but through edu
cation. The United States spends
:it0,000,0G0 year for tile navy bu,
the neople OF the United States do no,
fnow where or how this money Is
spent. And furthermore, they DOM
care and is 1t any wonder that the
Proper results are not obtained?'
Mr.. Lewis then quoted the words O.
George Washington. that the best way
to secure peace was to prepare fol

American people would only fight

tries war may be the whim OF one
man.
aThe United States the speaker
declared, would not so into war
what its armament"
The PacifIcists.
"But on the question OF armament
we come into contact with the paci-
ficists. They wish to discard every
thing, and history has proven in our
own case through all the years Of this
nations existence, that this policy has
been the cause of great suffering and
in every war fought.
1.-THE Navy league and similar or-
CARNATIONS are for peace as much as
any, but It believes that the only way
ito secure this blessing is to be always
prepared for conflict.
I'VE have to Judge our future by our
past and our past has been none too
bright. Just after the revolutionary
war the United States navy was dis
lcarded AS result, the United
States merchantmen in trying to COM
pete with other countries, got into
trouble, and, because we had no navy
to make our word felt suffered all
kinds Of indignities. Tripoli forced
Ia ransom from this country and Eng.
Land and France did what they pleas
led.
."Then the war Of 1912 broke out,

was blockaded and Washington was

trained.
"As soon as the United States built
up navy the war ended. Naval crit
les say that the costly war could no.
have occurred had this country a
navy at the start.
Same In 1861.
Even then we did not learn the
lesson. It is said that the civil war
would not have lasted one year II the
United States had had navy at the
istart. The confederate states got
their munitions and food from abroad
because the United States did not
have enough ships to stop this. and
as result of this help. the war drag

United States was finally able to

war stopped.
"At the end OF the civil war we
