HAS THE STAGE SET.

Some days ago the announcement came from the east that the Boston Americans and the Brooklyn Ma tionals. the teams which played out the worlds championship last fall were to meet in an engagement in the south in the springtime.
 The Bostons train here, and the Brooklyns are coming. Naturally the scheduling of this post-season cham rionship game meant that the fans from all over the country would see this game staged in Hot Springs.
 The Little Rock Gazette sport editor saw it differently. He staged the games at a Little Rock park. lie put the umpire out in front of 5,000 screaming fans, and had him call play ball, and had the worlds cham pionship done all over again in Lit tie Rock.
 Fine and dandy for the sport page But why hang up such a delusion to the Capital City fans? Little Rock doesn't expect anything further than a regular" and "yanigan" contest from some of the teams of the big leagues less than first division candi- dates. Nobody expects it for Little Rock. The reasonable. logical thing for the sgort editor of the Gazette to do is to visit the railroad offices of Little Rock and get some conces- sions in the matter of special rates to. the 'world,s greatest health and Weasare vgsort for a certain week m Ma. ell. where the worlds greatest bal teams will play a series of post-sea- son games.

Cannonades OF words against military

and a huge offensive for unionism

DR.. Woods Hutchinson stormed the
