Robins Count Heavily on
Marquard and Their
Batting Ability.
BY W. J. Macbeth.

You, who have tears to shed, let EN-
fall. Charles Hercules Ebbets will be
doing business at the same old stand
in 1917. A worlds series doesn't
feaze the Squire Of Flatbush, so why
should it feaze anybody else.
You should have seen the Squire in
his two-gallon beaver as he bade god
speed to the Dodgers at the Grand
Central Station yesterday afternoon.
The Squire made a speech-a wonder
full speech-while he awaited Manager
Wilbert Robinson and his hopefuls.
Then he tucked them on a day coach
and kissed them goodby, with instruc-
tons to clean up on the Red Sox and
return TO Flatbush leading the hunt
for gold and renown.
Brooklyn does not deserve all OF the
condolences that have been showered
upon it. Brooklyn has as good as an
even chance to glorify the honor of the
National League. The writer wishes
TO go on record here. Brooklyn, if it
disregards the Importance of the
event, will win the worlds champion
ship from the worlds champion Red
SoX.
Hitting Will Count.
For a series which is decided by the
first four victories Brooklyn has the
better chance of the two. To start
with the men of Robinson can outhit
the American League champions by
many points. Hitting, in baseball,
covers a multitude of sins.
1t has been truly said that pitching
in worlds series is more than half
the battle. Granting this point only
the Red Sox appear to have a slight
shade. Carrigan has five grand pitch
ers; any one seems capable Of stepping
in with a real classic. But this must
be kept in mind. In a short series
three rather than five pitchers are
likely to do the most effective work.
Brooklyn has good pitching, too. Not
so fine a hurting staff for campaign
run Of 1874 games. But the equal Of
anything that can be shown for a
short series. There is RUDE Vanguard
who is likely to start this afternoon.
Marquard has something on these
Red Sox. As Giant back in 1912 the
star southpaw Of McGraw's club took
the measure of the Hub aggregation,
and took it easily. Vanguard is better

STATE WIDE PROHIBITION

As Il matter of news TO those
who are casting about for can.
didatcs for Governor and mem
bers of the state Legislature
we desire TO state that the pcO-
pile of Utah Couny will not
stand this election for any man
whose record is not clearly in
favor of state wide prohibition.
What ever the past may have
been, eighty per cent of the
people of Utah County now
favor state wide prohibition
and will not vote for any can
didate whose record is not
clear, or who is or has been as
sociated with any crowd whose
record is not clear This is
news gathered from an intim-
ate questioning of all classes
of people.
Ii will be well for those who
attend the primaries to recog-
nizc this fact and TO elect only
those delegates who will vote
for candidates that have the
peoples confidence. There is
u wide spread sentiment, and
it can be read from the tone of
all the sermons and resolutions
i'm Union meetings or i'll talks
with individuals that the vot-
crs will disregard their politi-
cal affiliations if the candi-
date on their ticket is not
square on this question.
There is only one way to
make sure, and that is for
everyone to attend the primar-
les that will soon be called,
and personally supervise the
selection of the delegates.

Empty Cradles
Sending British
Nation to Ruin
Father Vaughn, of London, in
Remarkable Lecture, Shows
English Women Their Duty
to Their Country
BY FATHER VAUGHN.
(From Notes Taken by Mary Boyle
O'Reillyl

LONDON, England, May 1.-The
cry Back to the land" is not so i'm
portant as Back to the home"
The cradles of England are empty. We
are nation travelling to the cemetery.
Never was the marriage rate so high;
never the birth rate so low, and that
at a time when the cry is to replace
the men We are losing.
When 1 was a lad the birth rate In
England was 81 to 40 per thousand. To-
day it has fallen to 10.
1t takes days to make a shell, weeks
to forge a gun, months to build a ship.
But a man is not a man for 20 years.
The waste of men is the longest loss
of war. 1t is waste beyond computa-
tion because it stretches far into the
future in which, under happier condi-
tions, these men dead in their prime
would have been the fathers of children
we need.
No sane man facing these facts can
doubt that our whole national future is
in jeopardy.
L have said the marriage rate was
Iever so high.
| 1t seems quite impossible for some
people to realize that marriage is not
special fad of the Church of England
or even of the Church of Rome, but a
fairly ancient and universal institution.
| IL hundreds of English towns war
marriages" are the order of the day. A
war marriage is a marriage where the
bridegroom is in khaki, and the bride,
very probably, on ner way to NUM-
| tions factory.
Too prudent people emphasize the risk
hYycI rafr ~ lad
If that be a legitimate argument against
marriage then the law should forbid
the marriage Of miners q of men en-
ployed in any dangerous trade.
| In 40 cases out of so marrying in
wolves a certain amount of risk. But
real marriage of the right people for
the right reasons is a thing worth TAX
hing risks for. Perhaps the gamble con-
stitutes one of the attractions.
| Still, in the excitement of our pres
ent life, it is inevitable that number
of perpetually desirable but unfashion-
able virtues are being more or less
ignored by the people at home.
Bluejackets, men in khaki, splendid
air men are risking their lives to save
our !. onor from disgrace, our country
from invasion, ourselves from vassalage
and Serfdom.
And we?
I see everywhere on the streets Of our
mammoth metropolis bejewelled ladies
I'm the daintiest of footwear-which you
can see as far as ever it reaches, and
the most perfect hats. You would think
that we had money to throw away. And,
if you look a little longer you will see
that a costly pet dog is cuddled some
" here. a plaything that could easily be
replaced by two men in khaki as far as
money goes.
Is this right, or fair, in the women
of wartime England,
1t is not men, munitions, or money
we Want most now
n is the mother we need today, and
shall need more and more.
We want war wives, truly, but war
wives proud to meet Gods will to te-
| come mothers.

THOUSANDS OF REBELS
ARRESTED IN IRELAND
Fourteen Persons Have Been
Observation-Disclosures De-
bates Affairs
(By Associated Press. }

LONDON, May 11.-Fourteen persons
have been executed in Ireland, Harold
j. Tenant, parliamentary under-secre-
tary for war; told a questioner In the
house of commons today Seventy
three persons have received sentences
of penal servitude and six of imprison-
ment at hard labor, the under-secretary
ADDED.
Irish affairs occupied today even a
more important position in the public
mind than they did at the time of the
hcme rule controversy.
Both houses of parliament were again
engaged with them today. John Dillon S
motion for discussion of the executions
in Ireland came up in the house of
commons and the house of lords con-
sidered Lord Loreburn's motion express
ing dissatisfaction with the Irish admin
istration.
The debate in the house of commons
was regarded as the more important,
for there the government came, under
the cross fire of the whole Irish party
and of a large number Of liberal mem
bers who are determined to bring an
end not only to arrests and executions
in Ireland, but martial law.
The execution in County Cork OF
Thomas Kent, although it took place
before Premier Asquith gave his assur-
ance that no further death sentences
would be carried out until the debate
was concluded. has brought forth fur
Their protests from Irish parliamentary
circles.
ARRESTS BY THOUSANDS.
The nationalists also are concerned
at the continued arrest and deportation
to England for confinement in English
jails of rebels from all parts of the
country. The number of arrests must
be several thousand.
A" number of lists containing 400 or
more names of persons arrested have
been published. The latest estimates
of casualties in Dublin places them al
about / 900, of which 400 were killed.
These figures include soldiers, in
surgents and civilians. The fact is noted
in Dublin that since the insurrection
there has been an increase in the rate
of recruiting there.
Even while the controversy over the
causes and manner of handling the in
surrecton is still in progress, efforts
are being made to reach a compromise
on the home rule question.
Those who most desire this are urg-
ing that Lord Hardinge, after he has
concluded his inquiry into the disturb
ances, shall be appointed lord lieutenant
of Ireland.
1t is believed a diplomat would be
more likely to bring the two parties
together than would a politician. There
are rumors that negotiations of some
kind are being arranged and that Sir
Edward Carson and John Redmond, the
leaders of the two parties, are con-
cerned with them.

WASHINGTON. May 11.-Further in
dications that American army opera
tions on the Mexican border are still in
ldeterminate as to time were given to-
day in official quarters. 1t was an
nounced at the war department that the
national guard of Texas, Arizona and
New Mexico will be mustered into the
army for the period of their enlistments
and with no specific time for federal

son had fixed any definite term for en-

tary Baker explained that it was order
ed that the national guardsmen will be
enrolled for the terms of their. state
enlistments, or until they are released.
General Scott telegraphed the DEPART
ment that another conference with Cen
eral Obregon was set for 10 o'clock this
morning at FL Paso. Secretary Baker
said there was nothing to confirm
border reports that General Scott has
served an ultimatum upon General Obre-
lyon IOF IlIldl answer upon acceptance
or rejection of the tentative protocol.
1t was expected here that General Obre-
gon would present counter proposals in
writing, particularly regarding fixing
date for ultimate withdrawal of Ameri-
lean forces. -
| The war department had no part upon
another incursion into American terri

Pass, Tex. There were also no Official
advices that American troops had
actually crossed the border in the Big

probable that some had done so. ~

have been instructed to again call at
tention of Americans to the state de-
partment's repeated warnings that this
government regards their presence there
as undesirable. Secretary Lansing has
stated that ever since the present diff
Guilty arose, the departments agents
have been urging Americans to leave.
The last census of Americans in Mex
