Meredith, committed by public Of

We have been free of these things
thanks to the excellent class or men

little things to prevent trouble in great
ones. II small franchises are wanted,
they can wait until the succeeding
election. But if we Nave this lever
which Mr.. WaliersteiE proposes. We
head off possibilities of graft. We
have had illustrations before us within
the recent past. Suppose the proposed
bla nket franchise asked for had been
granted. The company would now
have a franchise covering almost the
whole city for thirty years,
This is a wise resolution for the
protection of the city. If bidders for
franchises know the people will vote
upon the proposition, there will be
offers worth while. Council should
not have the right to give franchises

the company must extend its line a

car companies should be required to

WASHINGTON. July l3.--With a
chance TO take the series from the
Nationals and once break into the
pennant race in earnest, the Tigers
are all "het" up this morning. They
were nightly pleased with their
victory yesterday. after the game
appeared 10 be tossed away, and
the manner OF winning in the eighth

pepper up the team.
This afternoon they will have 10
face Joe Boehling. according 10 Grit
tith's schedule Sometimes Boehling
beats Detroit and just as often the
jungle folks chase the southpaw TO
cover. Washington usually gets
more worry than anything else In
the Jennings camp. Hughey is not
certain whom he will pitch this aft
ernoon.
James or Dubuc should get the
call. Dubuc's injured hand being
better. Jean usually pitches a swell
game against the Nationals. and al
though he has not worked for some
time, Jennings may be confident oi
him. Hughey threatens TO send
Mitchell 10 the firing, and be may
do that very thing. Willie hasn't
justified any such confidence, bu,
the Tiger manager insists that the
southpaw should be effective and
thinks that he will be in his mex.
contest. Another possibility is that
Cunningham. who worked three
splendid innings in the first game,
will be pitched back.
The Tigers didn't do very much
real hitting yesterday. Ability 10

The big opportunity came in the
eighth. and then George Burns. aft

hoisted innumerable fouls, singled
