Yale's Hopes for Victory Resi-
With HaIfback Harry lie Gore

respect
1t has been four years since the
banner of victory was flung from
the New Haven flagstaff. after a game
with Harvard, and in those years
Yale has scored only five points. Pre-
vious to that time Yale has a vir-
tual corner on scor ng in the tits
with her age-old enemy. 1912 was the
last Yale year when the Blue cohorts
smothered the Crimson. 20 to 0.
Graduations have left Harvard with
out the brilliant Brickley and Mahan.
but the work Of Casey and Horween,
in the backield, with a forward line
fully up to the Haughton standard,
has made Harvard a favorite.
Yale has come fast under the tute-
lage of Tad Jones, and will present a
formidable front. Some trouble has
been found n a few spots, but as q
whole. the Blue team looks better
than any Eli squad in several years.

spots" vote so far as the manufacturers
are concerned, the Norris amendment
to the bill providing that breweries and
distilleries that are at that time in
operation anywhere, may continue in
business, but provides that they shall
not ship for sale any of their product
into dry territory, or territory made dry
by the vote provided for in the bill,
This amendment was offered to protect
the bfeweries and dIstilleries in Balti-
more County and Baltimore City, where
enormous sums are invested in those
enterprises, Baltimore County alone
claiming to have SIS, 900, 900 invested in
the manufacture of whiskey and beer.
Of course, the protection thus afforded
will avail in every other section of the
State where breweries or distilleries
exist, whether those sections go dry or
not. Many of the ''drv" members of
the House and Senators in explaining
why they voted for this bill, stated
that it seemed to be the best thev could
get, and that half loaf is better

SMITH AND SPEICHER STAND PAT"
Senator Speicher, of Garrett county,
and Delegate Smith. of Allegany, who
introduced the Statewide Prohibition
Bills in the Senate and House re-
spectively, fought to the last against
all compromises. The Garrett Senator
was one of nine to vote against the bill
after the Norris amendment had been
put on in the Senate and Delegate
Smith was one of the fifteen who voted
against it in the House. Delegate
Campbell, of Allegany, also voted on
the last rollcall as he had voted on the
first-for Statewide Prohibition vote or
no vote at all. He, indeed, was alone
in the Delegation in voting against the
bill with the Mcintosh amendment,
Delegate Smith accepting the bill with
that amendment as a compromise and in
the belief that no other changes would
be attempted.
The Governor will sign the bill passed
last Faiday.
And so the fight is over-for two
years more.

TIE DEATH RECORD.
MRS. CARRIE BENDER.

MRS. CARRIE BENDER.
Mrs. Carrie Bender, wife of Mr..
Jacob j. Bender, merchant of Grants
vile, died at her home last Friday night.
The funeral services were conducted at
the residence and at the NJ. E. church
Sunday afternoon at two o'clock In
terment was made in the Grantsville
cemetery.
Mrs. Bender is survived by her hus-
band, one daughter and five sons, the
Youngest being about three years old.
She was the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
Adam Fogle, of Salisbury, Pa, who
are still living.
Mrs. Bender was afflicted with tuber-
culosis for nearly two years, and at
times suffering most intensely. Her
husband did all that a true husband
could possibly do for his life-companion.
He placed her under the care of expert
physicians at the hospital of Johns
Hopkins University and at the State
Sanatorium. But both places failed to
restore her to her former health. After
failing to receive any help for Mrs.
Bender away from home. he had built
for her sun-parlor adjoining the home
residence. Here Mrs. Bender spent
most of her days during the last year of
life IN this world, under the constant
care of a well-trained nurse and skilful
physicians who did everything possible
to alleviate her suffering.
Mrs. Bender was a true Christian, a
member of the M. E. church, always
taking an active part in the affairs of
her church, and loving, devoted wife
and mother. All who knew her feel
confident that she has been translated
from this life of tribulatlon into that
spiritual life in the spirit world where
she is free from pain and sorrow.
The brothers and many friends SYM
pathize deeply with the surviving
father and children in their sad hour of
bereavement.

Now Opposes Wilson

The Chicago Daily News. which four
years ago supported Wilson for Presi-
dent and has stood by many acts of
his administration, in a lengthy edi-
torial declares itself against him. say
ing it believes the interests of the
republic require his retirement. The
Daily News denies that President VIII
son kept us out of war, as for more
than two years there has been nobody
who could go to war with the United
States, nearly all the worlds fighting
men being locked in the European
trenches. The Presidents method of
dealing with the threatened railway
strike is the chief reason for the Daily
News change, styling it shameless,
destructive surrender, establishing a
precedent both dangerous and humil-
iating. and pitiful display of timid-
ity and craft.
"Throughout the amazing transac-
ton the larger interests of the great
unorganized American public counted
for nothing. The facts, known and
unknown, We're ignored. The Presi-
dent employed an easy method of pro
iecting a present difficulty into the
future and gaining profitable friend
ships for himself while sowing a crop
of dragons teeth for his country.

The Daily News closes its editorial
by saying: an the opinion of the
