Up to the Dope
TT THE Red Sox live up to the system
Il they have followed for the last two
years the 1916 world series will result as
| follows:
Their rivals will win the first game by
2 to 1 or 3 TO 2. And thereafter the Red
sox will scatter fur up and down the land
scape until they have made II four straight
| and cleaned up the series.
We never have seen n ball club before
| that followed one system no closely. In
| 1915 the Red Sox developed the habit, In
| almost every important series. OF losing the
first game and then winning the others
| Against the Phillles In the world series they
| lost to Alexander and then won the next
four.
This same sprlghtiy system has carried
| them through the present year. Against
| the Tigers and the White Sox. with about
| one exception, they have lost the first en-
| gaRernent and then mopped up. In Boston,
| al a vital spot. they dropped double
| header 10 the White Sox and then won two
| double headers In row. The same opera
ton resulted on the final trip.
Test Development
These Incidents and episodes are related
with a direct purpose In view. A ball club
that continues TO come from behind and
win soon develops unusual character. II Is
strengthened by a tradition OF courage and
victory.
The Jump game" the first one. in a
world series always has been called th'
most important one. But beating the Red
Sox on the first day would mean nothing
| II would have no effect whatsoever upon
carrigans club. for his men long since have
grown accustomed TO coming from the reai
and mopping up.

BIG LAWYERS SAY s-HOUR LAW
IS CONSTITUTIONAL
In spite of the bowling of the high
priced corporation lawyers that the
8-hour bill is unconstitutional, other
famous attorneys, tied up by no rail-
road strings, say the bill is constitu-
tional and will undoubtedly be up
held by the us. supreme court.
Dean John H. Wigmore of the
Northwestern law school is firm in
his belief that the law will be upheld
by the supreme court. He said: eff
it is constitutional for the interstate
commerce commission to regulate
rates on the railroads the govern
ment probably has jurisdiction over
hours Of service and wages of the
employees of the railroads"
William c. Niblack, member of the
executive committee of the Ameri-
can Bar assn, said that he believed
congress had full power to pass the
8-hour bill and Wiuld undoubtedly be
upheld. Selden F. Spencer of st.
Louis expressed similar views. In the
meantime the railroads attorneys
are burning midnight oil planning for
their fight in the courts.
Frederick W. Lehman, former
U. S. solicitor general, got hearty ap-
pIause from corporation lawyers at
the American Bar assn convention
when he denounced congress for act
ing hastily on the 8-heur law.
Congressman Britten, Wilson and
Mann, all of Chicago, voted against
the 8-hour bill. Mann was the heavy
man" for the railroads in attacking
the bill.

thousands of employees would not
