DREYFUSS CAN'T PUT
NAT. COMMISSION OUT

The baseball magnates are not al
lowing themselves to be pushed out
of the limelight these days. If all
hands keep to their word to thrash
out matters the meeting in December
will be a lively one for the National
leaguefs. Barney Dreyfuss of Pitts
burgh has his gun loaded to kill off
the National Commission, and he ex-
poets to- fire a few bullets before he
Is gassed out OF the way, writes Old
Sport in the Philadelphia Inquir-
er.
Mr.. Dreyfuss in proposing that the
National Commission be abolishe led,
does not mean that he is not in favor
of the Commission form of govern
ment for baseball. That form of
government is the only one possible
as baseball has not, because of it's
peculiar requirements any legal stand
ing when it comes to the conduct
of it's own business.
But Dreyfuss does contend that
there Is too much money invested in
baseball to place all the power in
the hands Of three men who are not
disinterested. Barney is looking to
the future. He does not blame Ban
johnson for controlling the situation
or for running baseball for the benefit
of his, the American league, but Bar
ney takes to task the club owners
who permit such a condition of things.
He would kick out all the present
members of the Commission and elect
others to form a body with which, he
says, the mere club owner would
have some standing and some show.
There is some reason in Barney s.
madness and there is foundation for
his contentious, but even he himself
does not expect to accomplish his pur-
pose at the next sitting of the mag
mates 1t takes some time to bring
about such revolution Of important
things but Mr.. Dreyfuss says that it
must some day come to pass and may
be it will. but not now.

WHAT'S THE REASON?
Many Bridgeport People In Poor
Health Without Knowing the Cause.

There are scores of people who drag
out a miserable existence without real
izing the cause of their suffering. Day
after day they are racked with back
ache and headache: suffer from ner-
vousness. dizziness, weakness, languor
and depression. Perhaps the kidneys
have fallen behind in their work of
altering the blood and that may be
the root Of the trouble. Look to your
kidneys, assist them in their work
give them the help they need. You
can use no more highly recommended
remedy than Doans Kidney Pills-en-
dorsed by people all over the country
and by your neighbors in Bridgeport.
Mrs. Harold J. Laursen, 252 Alex
street, Bridgeport, says: 1T caught
cold a year ago and it settled in my
kidneys and caused bachache. MANY
times when I tried to rise up after
sitting down. sharp pain caught me
in the small of my back. 1 had to put
my hands on the arms on the chair in
order to get up. Mornings felt worn
out and suffered from headaches.
Dizzy spells came over me when
everything seemed in a blur. I had
used Doans Kidney Pills before with
good success, SO I again took them
Three boxes cured me-
Price SOC, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy-get

cured Mrs. Laursen. Foster Milbt urn

Quired several stitches, the police ar

POLISH KINGDOM

London, Nov. 1.-THE diplomatic
representatives Of Russia, wires Reu-
ter's Petrograd correspondent, have
been instructed to hand to the gov
ernments to which they are accredited
the following protest against the

lation of an international convention
solemnly sworn to by AustrO- Hungary

void. It reaff1rms that the provinces
of the Kingdom of Poland have not
ceased to form an integral part of the
Russian empire and that their in
habitants will be bound by the oath
Of fidelity which they took to the EN-
peror, my august master"

BY
F.. FORD.

How many people in Bridgeport
are saving a percentage of the money
they are now earning while times are
good?
Have you prepared against sickness,
possible hard times or any of the
hundred and one things that are la
BILE to occur? Are you in a position
to supply your family with the ordi-
nary necessities of life? If you are
prepared to do this, you are to be
congratulated. If, however, you are
unprepared, why not start to cult
vate and practice the habit Of thrift i?
Let us agree that you have good
position sufficient to supply your dear
ones with all they need in the way of
absolute necessities.
What would you do If your en-
ployer advised you that your services
were no longerArequired? And let us
still further suppose that it would
take say 80 to so days for you to Sc
cure new position. The man who
has been farsighted enough to prac-
tice thrift and lay away a percentage
OF his income can, under these posi-
tons, continue to live until he secures
another position-perhaps afford to
have his choice of positions while the
man who neglected to take his money
to the bank regularly and watch his
account grow is forced through cir
cumstances to accept the first position
offered in order to keep the wolf
from the door. y
There are over 40, 900. 900 workers
in America. If the worker began
now to save dime day. the aggre-
gate accommodations would reach
$1,465.750,576 year, or If each
saved a dime week, the total would
be $208, ,317. The saving Of a
dime month would amount to $4s,-
1908.
These are things for every person
in Bridgeport to think about This
is a nation of manifest destiny but
there are evil days ahead unless our
people begin at once the practice of
thrift.

Getting Out The Vote

"No man in Bridgeport is rich
enough to buy, for his own exclusive
use, what the city can give him. No
man in Bridgeport is too poor to enjoy
what the city can give him.
"Here is the common ground upon
which we can meet if we are for
Bridgeport"
These words appeared in an ADVERTISE
ment printed in the daily papers one day
last spring. They can be applied, with
added force to the situation which now con-
fronts the city and it's citizens.
We have a common ground on which to
meet at the Commission Government char
ter election next week. This charter has
been prepared along broad, progressive
lines. The best has been taken from the
charters and experience of other cities
which have made pronounced success OF
the commission plan.
This charter, if adopted, would provide
the means for making our city healthier,
cleaner, more attractive, more upright; a
place we would delight in calling home; a
city we could work for and plan for and live
for.
We have been told that it was practi-
cally impossible to get out the necessary
vote in the charter on election day; that our
citizens were apathetic; that they didn't
care about the needs of the city; that they
did not want good government; that they
were satisfied to let things drift; that stag
nation was preferable to progress; that the
old order Of things was satisfactory.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1916-11-15

In every community there are a few dis
gruntled people always anxious to throw
cold water upon every movement that stands
for progress-a few who never had spark

We don't believe that this is true
r of the majority of our citizens and we
have profound faith that they will
come to the front in this crisis and by
their votes settle, in a decisive manner,
this charter question.
It can be done. It MUST be done. I
If all of us in Bridgeport get to-
gether and use all the brains we have
and all our energy, we will get action
and make this charter election legal
and binding.
