BAN ON SUNDAY BASEBALL


Centerville. S. ID, May 6.-The pas
tors Of the local churches have taken
action which it is believed will result
In a a being placed on Sunday base
ball in Centerville during the present
season. The baseball management last
year promised not to play BALL In
an effort is being made to have the
pledge renewed so it will cover this
season. Thos opposed to Sunday
baseball have publicly stated that they
have consulted the states attorney III
reference to the matter, and that he
stated h a the state law prohibiting
Sunday baseball yet IA in effect and
that when complaints are made to him
he will tax steps to have the law n
forced. IN view of this, 1t is thought
arrangements can be made whereby
no Sunday games will be played hero
this season.

moral and social viewpoint, and that
he stood for the strict enforcement of

Touching briefly on militarism, he
declared it is more difficult and useful

to die fighting for it, which he granted
was sometimes necessary.

ulate it with kerosene. An explosion
followed, setting fire to the house and
to Mr.. Eaton's clothing.

NO WRITING IN" FOR
SOUTH DAKOTA BALLOT
This Is Ruling of Attorney Gen.
eral Caldwell-Hughes and
T. r. Are Barred.

Pierre. S.. D.. May 4.-Nc provision
Is made in the South Dakota presiden-
.ial preference system for writing IN"
candidates and the expressions will be
confined to candidates for whom regu-
lar filings have beer made. This limits
the candidates to Cummins on the re-
publican ticket and Wilson on the
democratic ticket. Such is the ruling
made yesterday by Attorney General
Caldwell.
1t is possible this ruling may be sub
jected to a court test, but if it is p
held an effectual damper is placed upon
he proposed writing in" campaigns
for Roosevelt and Hughes.
Alleged supporters of Roosevelt have
called a meeting for Mitchell, OIL May
10, with the avowed purpose of pushing
a Roosevelt boom in South Dakota. AS
legal filings a nc longer be made for
the primary of May % it is assumed
the Mitchell meeting was planned to
urge volunteer expressions. Several OF
the stalwart newspapers had been urg-
ing voters to write the name of Hughes
on h ballot.
Eve on competitive tests the Cum
minis supporters in South Dakota felt
entirely serene on landing the delega-
ton and under the Caldwell ruling the
issues now are closed IN that point.
This will result in shifting the entire
interest Of the primary to question of
state nominations.
