SOUTH PITCHES
ONE MORE GOOD
GAME YESTERDAY
159th Company HurIer Blanks
Mine Planters, Holding Them
to Three Singles

A large crowd of enthusiastic spec.
tators Witnessed the slaughter of the
crack l04th Company C.. A. c. team
by the 159th Company squad on the
Fort Armstrong grounds Wednesday
afternoon, the Rugerites finishing an
the big end of the Ito score.
The mine planters showed very
poor form and were outclassed at all
points of the game, piling up seven
errors while their opponents played
errorless ball the entire game, and
made several sensational plays.
Orr and South were on the rubber
when the game started. Orr lasted a
trife over five innings and was re-
lieved by Hudnall after being touched
for six hits, which Melted five runs.
Hudnall pitched fairly good ball, but
showed signs of weakening in the
ninth inning when three singles and a
double netted three runs for the Ru-
gerites. South was present with a
full assortment of fast and crooked
ones, making the mine planters feel
like discarding uniforms and all base
ball material for an indefinite period.
This was the third game of the five.
game series between the two com.
panies, and things look very favorable
for the 18th Company at present,
they having won two of the three
games played, and both by shutouts,
scores so and ITO respectively.
The 159th Company has won the
great majority of its games this year,
having been defeated seven times out
of 40 games, the great number OF
wins" being due to their ability to
bunch their hits and hit when hits
mean runs.
The next game of the series will be
played at Fort Ruger about April 26
1915.

PALAMA AND KALlHI
V0LLEY BALL STARS
SCORE VICTORIES AT Y

Last night in the games hall of the
Y. NJ. C. A. the Palamas by defeating
the Koreans took second place and the
Kalihis by winning from the Star
Bulletin team cinched its hold on first
place The first game between the
Palamas and the Koreans was one,
two, three-Palama 81 to 6, 81 to Ii
and 81 to 6. The Korean players play
ed a fine game in spots, but their
playing was not consistent and the
result was that the fast team work OF
the Palama bunch was too much for
them. Tai 10y, Brash and the Bent
boys played the best game for Palama.
while the Korean team averaged about
the same.
Kalihi took the first set from the
Bulletin boys, 81 to 16, and the Bull
letins won the second, 81 to II. In
the third set, which was won by Ka-
lihi, q to IA, the Bulletins held Kalihi
even 8 all up to the twelfth inningl
after which Kalihi took the lead, and
owing to the poor support of the Bul
letins' back field, won as they pleased
The final set OF the evening was won
u 70, 20, by Kslihi. This was the best
OF the evening and the winner was in
doubt up until the last man, Chung
pulled a bloomer as he was serving

the Al innings the score was tied

off AGAIN, ON AGAIN.. F"
Custer Against Howse Will Stand, But
Not so With Crump

Saturday the state supreme court
| handed down a decision SUSTAINING the
custer law and making 1t clear that
! former Mayor H. E. Howse was legally
removed from the office of mayor of
Nast vile and must remain out, unless
he is again elected by the people.
Howse at once announced himself as
a candidate for the Office from which
he was removed and stated that he
would be a candidate at the next elec-
tion called to elect a mayor of Nash
vile.
The finding of the supreme court re-
suited in the reinstatement of former
Mayor E. H. Crump, who had been re-
moved from the office of mayor of
Memphis by custer proceedings. 1t
was at once announced that IN the
event Crump assumed the office OF ma
yor, to which he was elected by the
people last April. custer proceedings
would be begun against him. Since
the court ruled that acts committed be-
fore the election OF a person to office
could be brought against him for his
removal, it would seem that Crump
will not dare to qualify nor again be-
come a candidate for the office.
That would also seem to indicate that
Howse will be in grave danger OF being
ousted again should the people elect
him mayor of Nashville at the next
election.

OUR TAXES.
Free Silver" Makes Some Sensible
Suggestions on the Question,

Erasmus, Tenn FEB. 5th, 1916
Editor Chronicle,
Crossyille, Tenn.
Dear Friend Il have read How
Can We Raise the Needed Taxes" ano
wish to express my sentiments on the
question. First, we need basis OF
equality in the assessment of real es-
tate. | notice that some pieces are
assessed too high and some about fair
while the majority OF tracts are entire
iy too low.
The small tracts owned by the poor
class are the ones that are assessed
about right and too hlghsas rule and
are the poorest land and situated In the
most dlsadvantageous localities, while
the larger tracts owned by the wealth.
Ter class, by corporations and non-resl-
dents are the ones that are valued too
low. Now If these latter were valued
on the same basis as the former 1T
would nearly double our income in tax
es. | know of lands owned by corpor-
atIons for which they paid $S to $40 per
acre, that is assessed at So. W and even
less, while poor man who was able t"
buy only few acres and was unable
to pay part of IT., at the same price
per acre IS assessed for the full amount
he agreed to pay. This is unjust. He
has his interest to pay and much
heavier tax, while what improvement
he makes IN the country is boosting the
value of the non-resldents' and COM
panles' lands. If these companies and
non residents do not wish to help raise
this much needed tax fund they will
throw the land on the market at rea-
sonabIe price to actual settlers,
Secord: This $1,000 exemption OF
personally ought to be abolished.
While that Is favor to the poor 1t is
badly abused by the wealthy. The
wealthy man distributes bis wealth
among his friends in such manner as
to dodge the tax. Now If all person
atty were assessable at actual cash val
ue and Is per cent or 25 per cent re-
leased on each person 1 believe there
would be much greater revenue de-
rived thereby than is under the present
system.
Third: All travel -, - our county
roads By our, resident citizens be as
sessed on a basis agreed upon, i. e.
So..ething like tnis: each one-horse
vehicle, soc; ..wo-horse farm wagon,
$1.50 and q. rour-horse vehicle and team
$500; automobiles as to horse power
$40. 80 to S25. 90. Such an assessment
Without regard to age OF the owner
and l think a large per cent OF tnls ex-
ira tax would be easily raised. we
nsed more good roads, more actual set
tiers who own their homes and thereby
nnttino more interest In the manage
ment of public affairs. A higher
standard of honesty, in fact each of US
ought to strive for the betterment OF
our nation and the human family at
large. r.,.
