MIDDLEBURY DEFEATS NOR
WITCH, "a.

Middlebury won her second victory
over Norwich this season on Tuesday
afternoon, on Porter Field, by a score
of 8 to a.. The first one was at North
field On April 90, and was Middebury's
game by score of a to /.
Garrison pitched both games and de-
serves much credit, although the first
four innings of Tuesdays game looked
doubtful from the Middlebury view
point. Norwich started with rush in
the first, and got two tallies by bunch
ing hits and two sacrifice hits. In the
fourth, two walks, an error, and sac
rifce, followed by two singles, netted
the visitors two more. In the last of
the fourth, Middlebury found Lamere
for three hits, and in the fifth for four
more, giving her five runs. From then
on the game was Middleburys, four
more runs in the seventh making it still
more decisive.
Lamere, the Norwich twirler, was
Middlebury man for the first semester
of 1876. He pitched good ball for
the first few innings, and was also a
consistent hitter for Norwich.
There was a good Memorial Day
crowd out to witness the game, in spite
of the intermittent showers during the
day.

Mir. M. F. Moran, our representative in the last legislature was a visitor in Candle and called on al his vld friends. Mir. Moran is aspiring to senatorial honors this election. and. during his sojourn with us, the man. agcment of the moving picture syndi- cate kindly afforded him an oppor. tunity of addressing the Candle cleo. torate. Mir. Moran in his address strongly urged on the electors the de- sirabil,ty of endorsing some candidate a. our particular representative but SO far the electorate have failed to take action on his recommendation.
 As Candle has no representative 'u the field and has formed no concert ed political alliance. 1t appears as trough, the interests of all sections of Seward peninsula being practically identical. by tacit consent we were l.ited to cxe' else our preference on tlec,ion day and help the winner win. Mir Moran. in company with Mir. S.ondish O'Sullivan. paid visit to Dime creek in the interests of his candidature. From Dime Mr. Morau intends visiting Council and Moron bay points before concluding hls itinerary at Nome.

Yesterday morning MT. and Mrs, Kell received a wire that their son Eugene. at Annapolis had been op- 'erated on last Tuesday for appendi- citis and that he is on the road to a rapid recovery. By curious coinci- dence 1t was exactly eight years ago that the Kells got a telegram from the naval academy telling of an ooer- ation on their son Irwin for appen- dicitis as result of which he died. The coincidenc goes still further in that the young men were both strick- en with the same disease, at the same place. and at the same age of 19 years with only few weeks varia- tion. Happily. as all will be pleased to learn Gene is practically out of danger according to the wire.

GOVERNMENT AND BUSINESS.

It would be we'll for all the people of the
country and particularly for those dependent
upon their weekly earnings, if the attitude of
the government toward business similar
to that Of the great industrial leaders toward
governmental regulation. This thought is sug-
gested by something Judge Gary said in his adj
dress at the annual meeting of the American
Iron and Steel Institute. Saying that the large
majority of the voters have friendly feeling to-
ward business success large or small, so long
las operations are fairly conducted, he added:
isWe believe thoroughly in the regulation and
restraint of business in such way as to pre-
vent injury to the public interest; but we do
not agree that the proper way to prevent harm
is to destroy the agencies which may be and
generally are utilized for the promotion of
good' The distinction is important, but it
has been. ignored by the department of justice,
which has sought to destroy combinations
known to be necessary in successful competition
for world trade.
The situation is not new. The mistake the
government was making was pointed out by
seeing men at the very beginning of attacks
on large corporations Many persons includ-
ing some whose interests were at stake, failed
to see it then, but nearly all recognize it now,
and this growth Of understanding accounts for
the present friendly attitude Of the public to-
ward business. Governmental regulation has
come to stay and businessmen would be the
last to ask that it be withdrawn. But there is
no reason why it should not be helpful always,
instead of harmful, as it has been in some

THE FLAGS YOUR OWN.

In response to the presidents proclamation
calling for public observance Of Flag day,
June Il, there will unquestionably be plenty OF
outward show of patriotism. But the value OF
all this will depend on what it means to the IN
dividual citizen. If every man, woman and
child who lives under our flag could be brought
to give few moments of careful thought to
what the things for which the flag is symbol
mean to him or to her individually, not IN a
sentimental but in a practical even in selfish
way; if the whole motive OF every exercise IN
school or hall were directed to bringing home
to the audience clear understanding of this
meaning, the day might do much to promote a
national spirit. AS matter of fact, we
sprawl" in patriotism. We talk as If we
were in a battle mood about country at all
times but the talk is most of it platitndes, which
are as natural to us as bark to dog. The
orator of the day relates the blessings Of Amerl-
canism and his hearers applaud. But if each in
dividual nearer got clear sense Of these bless
ings as his own possession, this government
would become the real center Of public interest,
right to vote would be esteemed a personal
privilege and responsibility demanding the
care and thought given to intimate affairs and
our patriotism would become the thoughtful
feeling the president mentions. We have a
loose sense of individual ownership in this flag
of ours which stands for the nation. When this
titleship sense tightens up, it will squeeze into
all impediments to national citi
zenship.

The Harding Victory.

Cedar Rapids Republican,: In the
race for governor, Harding had sort
of walkoyer, in many places polling
more votes than all the other candi-
dates combined. The Sioux City man
carried even Polk county and that
overwhelmingly, where all the news
papers of Des Moines not only OPP
posed him. but attacked him bitterly.
Even the friends of Mr.. Harding were
surprised at the strength which he
developed in the voting. None of them
lad looked for such a demonstration
of popularity and strength.
The meaning of it, We believe, is
that the voters like an independent
man more than one who caters to this
and that and everything In order to
get votes for himself. Mr.. Harding
pursued his own course, paid short
attention even to attacks that were
made on him and did not make any
efforts to meet all the isms that were
presented to him, while his oppon-
ents followed every will-of-the-wisp
of politics that they thought might
get them vote. In this respect the
victory of Harding is very reassuring
Mr.. Harding will prove to. be Il
strong candidate in the elections OF
recent years, probably going back to
the days when republican candidates
in Iowa were elected by 10000 major
ity or more. He will have the adj
vantage OF the national election,
which will bring out a large vote.
And the state will find in him an ex-
cellent governor. He will set
standard higher than that of petty
politics. and the playing of that game
of catering and cajoling and degrad-
ing In short, he will be a straight
away man<in a high Office.

THE BEST is SILENCE.

The sound Of war has been struck to dumb
ness for England in the loss of Earl Kitchener
and members of his staff, who went down to
death when the British cruiser Hampshire was
sunk off the north coast of Scotland. Kitchen
er's prominent position in the great world war
and his past feats of soldiery are what almost
overshadow the distressing fact that when the
Hampshire went down six hundred and sixty
FIVE of the vessels crew were drowned. Irag-
edy enough for one day, yet but a repetition OF
what is happening each twenty four hours now
in large part of the world. 1t would be easy to
moralize and draw conclusions as to the futlllty
of the great struggle, but in the face OF Eng
lands grief the best is silence. Khartum and
the Boer war are memories. So now is Earl

At Ita Face Value.

Muscatine Journal: The Journal
has been an advocate Of prohibition
too long and too earnestly to look
with favor upon a candidate for state
executive whose loyalty to that cause
could be questioned with such appar-
ent good reason as has existed in Mr..
Harding's case. On the other hand
we can not bring ourselves to believe
that the vote for Harding represent
the wet sentiment OF the republican
party of the state. His decisive vic
tory must mean that the republicans
OF the state have taken at its face
value his declaration that the saloon
has gone from Iowa to return no
more. Other considerations besides
his alleged liberalism" must have
influenced the thousands OF republi-
cans who rallied to his support.
And so while we frankly confess
we would have preferred either Cos
son or Allen to the Sioux City man
we heartily accept the verdict OF the
republicans of Iowa.
