As a matter of fact, the United
States, except in the eyes of a few
rather aggressive Americans. and a
good many foreigners who have been
blinded by the fear and suffering of
the war, is looked upon throughout
the world as having played a very
sane and honorable part.
The war party in the United States
is also essentially a moneyed or leis-
Ure-class party. InstinctiveIy the
privileged class edges a country to-
ward war, for, proVerbiaIly, war
makes good places to root for trUf-
f1es. AS far as 1 have seen, rich peo-
pie are practically alone in wanting
the United States to go around with
a chip on it's shoulder.
If Mr.. Roosevelt and his standpat-
ters thought Of the average Ameri-
can at all, they would see that he is
a poor man. They would know that
he is too busy supporting his wife
and children on very small income
to realize that it is his moral ii. e.,
Republican, duty to leave his farm
or his workshop, put on a uniform
and take part in row that is going
on 5000 miles or so way.

Therefore every true Catholic is the enemy
of our system of secular education; and every
Catholic teacher employed III our public
schools is doing more or less of what Miss
Lovett and Miss Riordan have been doing
Those teachers are wolves within the fold,
and they are constantly slipping into the list

author, and published in the interest of the
Roman Catholic church.
Such history IS nor IN use IN ATLANTA, as
I will show hereafter.

weeks before the election of Sept. 18th, stat
ing that he had never before heard of those
charges, and asking for my authority. | re-
ferred him to Dr. Keese, and he saw the Doc
tor about it. and was given the names of the
patrons who had given DR.. Reese the facts.

Therefore when Mr. Lee went to Atlanta,
seeking to rebuild ti7c advertising patronage
which the Roman Catholic boycott had so
nearly destroyed, he WAS not working for me,

Veterans Collapse

All great veterans OF the past have
suddenly collapsed. That Is why the fans
are still unwilling to believe that Matty
is through as star. 1t perhaps also
explains the willingness of Manager
Moran to take n chance on Bender despite
the fact that he failed dismally last year.
If Bender can come back it may clinch
another pennant for the Phillies. Tho
greatest value of the Indian VIII be in
pinch pitching. II Alexander is forced
to 20 at the pace he Travelled last year
n great pinch pitcher will be badly needed.
1t is asking and expecting too much of
Alexander to go to the mound in his reg
ular turn and still have enough in re-
serve to save games for other hurlers.
Benders wonderful nerve. control and
experience will make him the greatest
pinch pitcher in the country If he still
ers are essentially fast ball pitchers and
Bender will need his "hop." Bender's
work this season will be of unusual In
terest to fans throughout the country.
He has six young strong pitchers to out
shine to land his job. VIII experience
and craft prove superior to youth and
strength?
When Joe Tinker was informed that Pat
N Sn Gomo s2RS Rs ntS to nS a

than any in the game. and / would not
he surprised II the Indian came through. Moran
makes few mistakes, and any time he Is willing
to take a ball player don't think much OF
think twice before letting him co.
Charley Herzog says that the Reds would
have caught the Phlllles last season when they
five games behind the leaders early in
August IL he had been able TO uncover a
southpaw. After Benton sent to New
York Herzog did not even have a southpaw
hurler to pitch TO the batsmen for batting
practice until the middle of September, when
he picked up Lefty George. With Schulz
and Packard. two experienced southpaws on
his stan this the hustling Marylander
insists that he will win the pennant.
The American League clubs will have a
chance to pick up several promising Federal
League players during tho last half OF the
week, when the annual meeting OF Johnson's
circuit will be held. IL Is contended that all
the good players OF the independent league
have been purchased by National League
clubs, but that Is far from the truth. There
several excellent prospects who are still on
the market. Manager Mack could use two
Federal League Youngsters. and Il would not
be surprising II he landed at least one. He
wants no veterans.
The most remarkable thing about tho Ma
tIonal League race this season Is that every
manager thinks he Is going 10 win tho PEN
nant. All have a chance, but those OF Hug
gins and Callahan look decidedly slim. There
can he but one pennant winner, so several
leaders are going TO die hard.

BALL PLAYERS UNION
PLAN OF LABOR MEN

CHICAGO, Feb. IA Officials
of the American Federation of
Labor are endeavoring to form a
baseball players union. They
have written to Roger Bresnahan,
ex-manager of the Cubs, to ascer-
tain his ideas on the subject
The ball players, it is argued,
are not we'll organized at the pres
ent time. Their fraternity, headed
by David Fultz, it is held by those
back of the movement, has not re-
ceived much recognition from the
magnates, and new union, backed
by the American Federation of
Labor, is figured a good thing for
the diamond profession.
The fraternity had one rebuff
when the Athletics, almost to
man, held out, saying that they had
plenty of faith in Connie Mack and
his fairness. They did this when
world champions.

Baltimore five matches to none. at the

beaten Boston by three matches to two.

matches.
In conjunction with the intercity
matches the match for tho singles cham

IF YOU HAVEN'T 1T
YOU CANNOT SELL IT
That's What Chandler Says About
Phillies' Stock

The well-known Vice president of the
Phlllies, Frederick T. Chandler, AYERS that
one cannot sell stock that one does not
possess. with this apparent truth as n
premise. Mr.. Chandler deduces that
Charley Murphy and Charley Taft are
not able to dispose of Philadelphia Ma
tional League holdings.
There Is absolutely nothing in the re-
port" says Mr.. Chandler, "for the good
reason that Taft and Murphy can't sell
anything they don't own, Taft and Muir
ply own no stock in the Phils, and
haven't held any Cor moro than a year.
Taft and Murphy own the grounds on
which tho Phils play, but they haven't
tho slightest connection with the club.
IT don't understand how the report
started. The only thing can say Ia that
II is 100 per cent wrong. But what an
awful waste OF good space It was"
