The CaVe-in.

You have seen fast runners sud- denly lose their speed around the bases. You have witnessed more than one, good pitcher who dropped out quickly, when he looked to be in his prime.
 An arm or leg may go in a flash. And when they go they seldom return.
 But you rarely see atbatting eye fade suddenly. Practically all of the great batsmen remained great batsmen to the end of their careers-or at least until they had waddled into the sere and saffron of the same.
 The only instance we can recall off hand Is Stone, of St. Louis. Back in 1906 he looked to be one of the i'm mortals. He led the league with 1858. By the next year he had faded out-back around .250-and he never got going again.

The Batting Eye.

The Batting Eye doesn't seem to be affected by lay-off. Baker is a natural hitter The art of timing a blow was born with him. His work around third might not be improved nor his speed helped in any way by a years siesta on the outskirts of the Bush, but he should be able to punish pitching in the same old way
 Batsmen of the Lajoie-Delehanty- Donlin- Wagner Cobb Crawford Baker types were never developed by any instruction. Cobb possibly was de- ve1oped more than any of the others, but in the main these sluggers began hitting their first trip out, and never ceased while they could wield a club.
 The candle-power of Bakers eye will stick with him for many year. Pop Anson, after twenty-five cam paigns, finished above 300, after he had become sedate, middle aged citizen, ready to assume his carpet slippers and diet of mush and gruel.

A Year Ago.

At this date a year ago there was earnest, not to say keen and spirited, discussion, with many valuable hours wasted, as to whether: ..
 1. The Braves or the Giants would Win the N L. pennant.
 2. Mclaughlin or Williams would land the lawn tennis championship.
 3. Travers or Ouimet or Evans would finish first among amateur golfers.
 You can look back over what actu- ally happened and discover just how useful all these arguments were.

new LAW TO HELP
IRRIGATION WORK
Provides for Lien on Govern
ment Lands Included in Pri-
vate Projects

The passage thru the senate on
Monday, and the approval by the pres
ident which will Immediately follow,
of the bill introduced by Congressman
Addison T. Smith, Of Idaho, provid-
ing for the creation of lien on home
stead and desert entries within irri-
cation projects organized under state
laws, to the extent Of the proportion
ate share of the expense of construct
ing such irrigation projects, will re-
vive activities in the reclamation Of
arid lands which has probably not
been equaled since the general recla-
nation law was passed Ia years ago.
It should at once create demand for
irrigation bonds, for which there has
not been ready sale for the last
few years.
It is regarded as the most impor-
tant legislation affecting the arid lands
enacted this congress.
Work Has Been Halted
Much embarrassment has been en-
countered by promoters of irrigation
projects in recent years because Of the
difficulty of securing payment Of the
construction charges levied against
entries which have not been patented,
as it was possible for the entryman to
relinquish the entry and turn the land
over to the new entryman who was
not required to assume the charges
which had accumulated. Under the
provisions of the Smith bill these
charges attach to the land, and must
be paid before the new entry is ap-
proved by the local land Office.
The proposed legislation will remove
many difficulties that have heretofore
confronted the economic development
Of reclamation projects, and will avoid
one Of the most serious hindrances in
the organization and development OF
irrigation districts by providing that
the public lands may bear their share
of the Improvement work, and at the
same time fully protect the govern
ment interests in the public lands.
On the Cooperative Plan
AS the projects will be constructed
under cooperative plan the entry
men will be able to secure water at
actual cost of construction under their
own supervision.
The bill provides that the projects,
before the law becomes operative shall
have the approval Of the secretary OF
the interior, with whom maps and
plans shall be filed, thus guarding the
interests of the settlers and avoiding
the possibility of projects being I'M
dertaken which are not feasible from
an engineering standpoint, and for
which there is not sufficient water
supply.

COL. HARTLEY AND
SINGING BOYS HERE
Republican Candidate for Gov
ernOr DenOunces Lawlessness
of Labor Unions

Col. Roland H. Hartley, Of Everett,
republican candidate for governor,
who is making an automobile CAM
paign tour of the state, spent last
night in Kennewick. The present tour
is being managed by "Wee" Coyle,
the famous University of Washington
football star, and feature of Col.
Hartley's meetings is the singing of
the University male quartet, one Of
which was taken i'll recently and was
not with the party last night.
Col. Hartley is attracting atten-
ton in the present campaign because
of his fearlessness in denouncing the
practices of labor unions. Speaking
from his automobile in front Of the
postoffice last evening, he said in part:
81 offer myself as candidate for
the office of governor of the state OF
= ~
Washington as man with definite
issue. ask for the republican nomin-
alton. AS my republicanism dates
from the time of my first vote l do
not need to emphasize it now. There
are other candidates asking for the
same honor from the republican party.
All of us subscribe to the principles
of that party. To that extent we are
alike. l think I go farther than the
gentlemen who are opposing me.
II want no vote to be registered for
me which is not considered to be a
vote for industrial freedom, for the
right OF, every man or woman in the
state to receive the states protection
when following a legal occupation in
legal manner. The doctrine OF law
and order was registered one hundred
and forty years ago by the men who
founded this nation. My platform.
far from being new, is just one hum
dred and forty years old.
81 promise, If I become governor,
to use the machinery of my Office to
replace the bludgeon with the law.
The workman who is not satisfied with
his lot and quits his job will be pro-
tected, if need be, in the exercise OF
that lawful resolve; the man who takes
his place will be protected when ex-
ercising his right to work for what
ever wage he may agree upon with his
employer to accept.
ct have worked for years for wages
and have never yet asked anyone to
WELD bludgeon to enforce my right
to those wages or to intimidate man
who sought any job left. AS an en-
ployer of labor now I claim the privi-
lege Of employing whom I please with
out regard to the applicants affilia-
ton with any organization or lack Of
such affiliation. To the, fullest extent
that am able as governor I promise
to see that the state conserves the
right Of every employer and every
employee to enjoy this same measure
Of freedom"
