when we contemplate Industrial
and commercial conditions" says Mr..
Hughes, 1--WE see that we are living
in FOOLS paradise" This is the con-
dition to which the administration and
its supporters have deliberately closed
their eyes. When the war cloud broke
over Europe. this country was expert
encing the most serious depression it
had known since 1893, when the Demo-
cratic party and its policies were in
full control of the United States.
Suddenly there came from over the
sea a demand for munitions of war,
clothing, food, supplies. everything
needed by vast armies and by coun-
tries whose sons were taken from the
field and the workshop. never to re-
turn.
AS result our exports and the bal
ance Of trade in our favor have reach
ed figures far surprising any ever be-
fore known. Temporarily, especially in
the East, there is no lack of work at
high wages. for Europe must pay
whatever price America asks. No
thoughtful person would imagine that
this condition is anything like real
prosperity. How false it is. we In
Oregon. who have the clearer vision,
because not clouded by the smoke
from munitions factories, have fully
felt and fully appreciated.
What the Republican candidate for
president says about 1t the Democrats
know to be true:
"Our opponents promised to reduce
the cost of living. This they have
failed to do, but did reduce the oppor-
tunities of making living. Let US
not forget the conditions that existed
In this country under the new tariff
prior to the war. Production had de-
creased business was languishing;
new enterprises were not undertaken;
instead of expansion there was cur
tailment and our streets were filed
with the unemployed"
The suspension Of these conditions
is not nationwide. only sectional. and
depends upon the duration Of the war.
Those who think otherwise are, in
deed, living In FOOLS paradise.-Port-
land (Ore.) Telegr E

'GAFFNEY WILL BUY
PIRATES, IS REPORT
One-Time President of Braves Willing
to Pay 81 $50. 900 for Pittsburgh.

New York, Dec. 15-From an authori-
tative source it has been learned that
James E. Gaffney, formerly president OF
the Boston Braves, is dickering for the
purchase of the Pittsburgh Pirates. II
Is said that Barney" Dreyfus, owner of
the Pirates, demands $1,250,O00 for the
grounds, stands and franchise.
1t Is said that Mr.. Gaffney represents a
syndicate of Pittsburgh business men.
and that Mr.. Gaffney and his associates
have practically accepted the terms ouot-
ed by Mr.. Dreyfuss. Furthermore, Mr..
Gaffney intends to make Johnny" Evers,
whose contract with the Boston club has
one year more to run, manager OF the
Pirates if the deal is consummated.
While Mr.. Dreyfuss has emphatically
denied the report that the Pittsburgh
club was on the market ever since COM
ing to this city to attend the annual
meeting of the National League, 1t has
been learned that he has had at least one
conference with Mr.. Gaffney. 1t is also
known that Mr.. Gaffney has had q con-
ference with Johnny" Evers.
According to this information the club
will be sold in the immediate future, but
1t was the intention of all the parties con-
cerned to keep the matter secret until
everything. including the many. details,
had actually been arranged.

minors WANT RELIEF
ON THE MAJOR DRAFT
Class AA Clubs Agree to Accept No
Player Through Optional
Agreement.

Chicago. ILL.,, Dec. 16-That the minor
league representatives talked seriously
to Big Ban and his henchmen there is
little doubt.
Every club Of the three Class IA
leagues is pledged to stick to the death
on the request for relief from the major
draft, said an International club presi.
dent yesterday afternoon.
The Coast League. of course" he
continued, doesn't care one way or
the other. 1t would as soon run in
dependently, anyhow We are anxious
for Its cooperation, however. President
Baum is with us. He has guaranteed
the loyalty of his associates"
AT secret meeting of the minor
leaguers day or two ago a plan of
reprisal against the majors was adopted.
The Glass AA clubs have agreed to
accept no players from the National and
American Leagues through optional
agreement
That will be a great saving" said
8. Lichtenhein. the Breeze Kid OF
Montreal. Here is the way it will
work:
with the avenue closed to disposal
through optional agreement the major
clubs will not take South the forty and
fifty bands. as they do at present They
will have to declare free agents a lot
of excess baggage. We can step in then
and sign this cast-off material cheaply.
Now We have to assume the contracts
negotiated by the major leagues"

MOUNTAINEERS LOSE
TO HILLTOP QUNT
Georgetown Trims Mount St. Joseph in
Opening Game, s. to II.

Georgetown's basketball quint opened
its season last night in Ryan's Gym
with an easy victory over the Mount ST.
Joseph College team, of Baltimore, No.
by a 35-to-12 count.
The visitors were outplayed during the
forty minutes. The general all-round
work at shooting and passing Of the Hill
toppers was as good as could be ex-
pected in the first game Of the season.
Mount st. Joseph did not come up to
expectations In the passing end of the
game, as they time and time again stop
ped passing the ball for scrimmage work.
G. Keliher and Lee Hart, the two Wash
Ington boys with the visitors, were the
stars, as each did some exceptional work
at dribbling the ball and kept their op-
ponents pretty well covered.
OBoyle, OF the Hilltoppers, was easily
the shining star of the contest, as he
seemed to always be in the right spot
both on the defense and offense. He made
two clever shots from midfioor and play
ed a great game on rushing the ball to-
ward his basket. Olone and Fees han
died their chances in great style and
were supported in a good manner by the
Blue and Gray backs. The game was
pretty tame for an opening contest, as
Lee Hart was the only player in the con-
test banished for personal fouls.
Inability of Hart and Keliher to shoot
foul tosses kept the visitors score. down.

AMERICAN LEAGUE
PUTS BAN ON WRITING

Chicago, Dec. 15.-American League
maSnates who met here yesterday in an
nual session are on their way home today
after one of the shortest and most peace
full sessions on record.
Outside of agreeing to charge only dou-
Bile the regular season admission prices
for world series games the magnates did
not offer more than passing interest. The
question of abolishing the draft, demand
ed by the minor leagues, was passed on
to President Johnson with power to act.
Then the magnates adopted the new
contract approved by the National Com
mission, put ban on the writing of arti-
cles by ball players, voted in the new
owners of the Boston Red Sox, and ad-

Hist! Jack Curley, co-manager Of Jess

Paris on Monday to have a big look
around and mayhap-a talk with Georges
carpenter and Francois Descamps, his
manager, to arrange, it is said, for a
'orty-round fight for the heavyweight
championship of the world between VIII
ard and Georges Carpenter at Long
champs, in the Bois de Boulogne, Paris,
France.
Forty rounds, That would be a fight
tc a finish practically. II would settle the
question of supremacy for all time. Held
almost in the center of Paris. with Car
pentier fighting for the title on French
soil, and with large portion of the pro-
ceeds going to the Red Cross fund, II
would draw the greatest crowd that ever
saw a contest across the waters.
Curley refused last night to divulge the
secret of his going. though he did admit
that he intended sailing Saturday. bu:
Ead put of his going until Monday.
