MOB RULE OR LAW

The forces of law and order in Minnesota have had
face the most serious situation this week that has
fronted them in many years. For time there has
been trouble in the cities between the street railway
company and about oneffth their employees who
fit to form union. The Public Safety Commission in
and appointed referees who spent several days
adjusting the matter and arrived at settlement agreed
by all parties That settlement then given the
standing of official order by the Public Safety Com
mission, required that the company should rein
state all the who had struck and that both the
union and non-unon should refrain from wearing
buttons indicating their utilization while on duty
The union men objected to the ordering the
buttons as invasion of their constitutional rights
The wearing of the buttons was source irritation
both sides, and the order made strictly in the
pubs interest Both the direct and indirect evidence
is that all parties concerned agreed to this settlement
only the agreement of record but the union
organizer left the city
But the members of the union did not accept the
order and Sunday afternoon meeting at which
nfammatory speeches made was held in st. Paul.
meeting several thousand people engaged
a riot in which many people injured and several
cars wrecked. Street car service discontinued.
A union convention which was to have effect of
general strike called for Wednesday, but here
after certain amount of oratory, counsel pre-
vailed instead of general strike being declared the
convention adopted resolution calling for federal
arbitration and adjourned to next Tuesday
Governor Burnquist takes the position that the
of Minnesota arbirate the arbitration and

To surrender because of the riots and agitation would

adjusted the dignity of the constituted author
ity of the state upheld.
The unions themselves do not appear to have been
responsible for the riot but rather the hoodum element
always ready the least pro-
vocation.
The Non-Partisan League again besmirched
by their leaders Manahan and Joseph Gilbert and
placed in unenvabe light. These two spoke at
the meeting Sunday afternoon and expressly pledged
the support of the League. Manahan is reported to have
expressly advised against violence but from the fact
followed Immediately thereafter it is fair
judge that his remarks provocative than
conciIiatory. He again at the union convention

SEVEN MIN U I [ LONDON HIKES
 LONG ONES
(By United Press)

LONDON, Sept IA. = No American, unless possessed of a good constitu- ton and au afternoon to spare, should ever attempt a seven minutes walk" in London
 Your Englishman may be slow in some ways, but when it comes to walking Theoretically. that is) he's the fastest little jockey that ever rode Shanks mare. The other end of an average Britishers conception of a seven minutes walk is as far away , as prohibition in Milwaukee, or the ac- tual retirement of Hans Wagner. A six-inch shell. or a wireless message might get there in seven minutes, but they'd have to hurry. Five and ten minute walks, as well. are proportion- ately distant It's easy to see why Messls Fielding and Gould had such cinch over in Stockholm back in 1912.
 If the unsuspecting American asks how far away such and such a place is, and is told it is "about a seven min ute walk" he is in for pleasant time. After he has walked for twenty-five minutes, despairingly hopped on a bus and ridden for forty more, and wound up with another jaunt of thirty minutes or so, he'll probably find him self somewhere in the vicinity of his destination.

VE ETERAN BALL PLAYERS STILL
 FR|SkY
(By United Press)

NEW YORK, Sept 1S.-Since Ed die Plank, Sam Crawford and Nap La joie have been counted out of active competition in the American league, the veteran class in that organization has simmered down to just a few players none of whom has spent more 1 than thirteen years in the big show. i Thirteen years is lot of time, but when considered alongside the rec ords of Lajoie, Wagner and a few others of that il@ taey fade away. Not many persons would admit that Turrye Turner of the Cleveland In- dians, is the oldest player in point of | playing years now in the American league, but he is Terry made his ad- vent into the exclusive Johnson cir cult in 1904, going from Columbus For years he was regular with the old Blues, sometimes as an outficlder and sometimes as an nfielder. He never was a heavy hitter, but his record would make any ambitious youngster 1 jealous. His best season with the bat was in 1912 when he hit. 30S.
 Leaving Terry, it Is discovered that Ty Cobb, Eddie Collins and Clyde Mi Ian are the oldest players. Youngsters, they are considered by a great many persons, who see their activities on the field
 Cobb has been a member of Hugh Jennings Detroit Tigers for twelve years. He never has played with an. other big league club. Collins has been a big leaguer eleven years. His activities have been confined to Phila- delphia and Chicago. Clyde Milan left Wichita, Kas., ten years ago tc take up the business of baseball under Clarke Griffith and he has enjoyed most brilliant career. Other veterans still sojourning in the American league are Jack Barry, Ownie Bush, Frank Baker and Iris Speaker.
 Not one of those generally recog- nized in the records as oldtimers is really considered in that light, and with only one or two exceptions, it is probable the entire list will be there for years to come. Cobb, particularly looks good for at least ten more years if he continues to care for himself as in the past.
