Defeat of Conservation
i'm Australian Election
Now Seems Certain

Ottawa December 22.--Anti-conscrip-
tionists lead by 1900 votes in the re-
cent referendum on the question of con-
scription in Australia, although the re-
turns are not complete, according to a
dispatch from Melbourne to Reuters
agency here today.
Vancouver, B. c., Decemb err PA spe-
cial cable from Sydney. Australia, to
the Vancouver World, commenting on
the returns from the conscription refer
endum. says:
Premier Hughes has so far refused to
comment on the result. but the general
impression is that as soon as the result
is officially announced he will tender his
resignation. There has been much crit
icism concerning the method in which
the campaign has been handled and in
sistent demands are made for a new
leader of the nationalists, Irvine or Watt
being the men most prominently mem
toned as the possibilities.
Western Australia so far is the only
state which returned majority for con-
scription. In New South Wales the mo-
vote led by more than $4,000"

Any person who heard Mr. Wander
lips utterances against employment OF
men and material on unnecessary work
at this time and my friend Billy Nc
Adoo's refusal to build a postofrice al
New Decatur until the war was ended
would act unwisely in building a court
house at Bessemer now.
Especially under conditions stated by
Mr.. Allen, which Mr. Gwin in no way
refuted- A hundred thousand dollar
courthouse, with material and wages as
now, would be nothing more than a wing
to the courthouse that Bessemer county
will want In eight years. Think of It,
no competitive plans or specifications for
non-emergency Job have been
through the building Of Is courthouses
in Alabama, and every one had plans
submitted from within and without the
state. Two of the best courthouses In

rior to our ludicrous pile of red brick
and mortar-were built by superintend-
ents hired by the county commissioners;
in both instances from competitive plans.

Is it claimed that 1t Is undignified for
Bessemer officials to work in the quar-
ters now occupied? I answer that war

Evers With PhiIIies

For the third time in his baseball Il career. Johnny Evers has shifted his club uniform, and his efforts with the Philadelphia Nationals will be followed with interest by fans throughout the country. The present season is the 18th that Evers has served in the big league. During this lengthy period viewed from the standpoint of the baseball player, Evers has had a remarkable and spectacular record upon the dia- mond. Noted for both his quick think ing and fiery temperament. he has f1g- ured in some of the most sensational of the national game episodes.
 Evers made his baseball debut with the Troy club of the New York State league in 1902. playing shortstop. The following year found him at second base for the Chicago Nationals and he held down the keystone sack for the Cubs until 1914, when he joined the Boston Braves. Now he has moved on to the Phillies, where it is expected that he will strengthen second base Some idea of Evers' ability can be gained from the fact that up to the close of the 1916 season he had played in 1,753 games with a resultant grand batting average of .23S and a fielding percentage of .S13
