In The DAVIS News

DR.. Harry A. Garfield, whose ap-
pointment as Fedora, Coal Admins
traitor. has brought him prominently
into the public eye, celebrates his
seth birthday anniversary today. DR..
Gerfiegld is the son Of a President of
the United States, James A. Garfield.
Like his father, he carly showed apti-
tudes for study and scholarship, and
accordingly was sent on to Williams
College from Ohio, where he was born
and lived during his boyhood. On
graduation, he turned to teaching.
But school teaching did not prove to
be wholly satisfactory to him, SO he
studied law, and thereafter, instead of
practicing law, used his combined
knowledge as scholar and jurist to
enable him to fill important chairs at
the Western Reserve University law
school and at Princeton University,
his term as professor of politics at the
latter institution lasting from 1903 to
1908, when he was elected president
OF Williams College.

AMENDMENT
IS ENDORSED
Frankfort State journal Prints Strong
Editorial Favoring Adoption OF
Constitutional Amendment And
Pointing Out It's Advantages

The stropg resolutions adopted by
the Frankfort Chamber Of Commerce
favOring the Constitutional Amend
ment relating to the purchase Of tele-
phone lines are meeting with favor
throughout the state. Among other
papers which have endorsed this &C
ton editorially is the Frankfort State
Journal, which recently published the
following editorial:
amend The Constitution
1.-THE action of the Chamber of Com
merce, in pledging its efforts to the
adoption of the Constitutional Amend
ment relating to the purchase Of tele-
phone lines, and in calling upon other
commercial bodies to support 1t, is
both wise and timely.
Two telephone lines in the same
community, each contending for sub
scribers, is q nuisance-an expensive
nuisance-to the public, and has been
too long tolerated. When the busy
merchant, farmer or professional man
takes up his telephone, he wants to
talk and talk quickly; and to be told
that the party sought has "the other
line" naturally stirs his resentment.
Two exchanges in the same town
mean that the business and profess
sional man must maintain both, and
this he should not be required to do.
Telephone service should be univer-
sal among telephone users; every tel
ephone user should be able to reach
every other telephone user, over his
own phone.
The present Constitution of Ken
lucky was written when the telephone
business was in its early infancy, and
In 1t was written that one telephone
company could not acquire by lease
or purchase, the lines Of q compel
ing company. with the result that In
every municipality where there have
existed two telephone systems, how
soever much a Chamber Of Com
merce or a City Council wished to
have only one, they could get rid Of
neither without wrecking one. Both
lines were doomed to continuous exist
ence, in spite Of the fact that gener-
ally neither was prosperous. or giving
to the public satisfactory service.
State authorities and local councils
have complete power Of regulation Of
telephone companies. &.
1.-THE General Assembly adopted the
pending amendment to the Constitu-
ton. permitting one telephone COM
pany to purchase the lines Of anoth-
er, provided the City Council and the
State authorities should approve the
purchase; without that approval no
purchase can be made. This amend
ment was passed by the House Of Rep
resentatives without : dissenting vote.
and by the Senate with only one mega
tive vote. Such vote is an indication
Of the widespread interest in the
amendment and the demand for the
relief 1t will bring. The public inter
est is fully protected.
I'VE cannot too highly commend the
Chamber Of Commerce in its efforts
to secure the adoption Of this amend
ment by the voters. The State Jour
nal is for the amendment, and will add
its efforts to those Of the Chamber Of
Commerce to bring about the adoption.

PLAYERS
DO WELL AGAINST
BOSTON COLLIE

Cambridge. Mass. Oct. 1s-The
The Boston College football team,
with which Harvard had a game
scheduled this fall before the dates
were cancelled, was brought to Solz
diers Field by Charley Brickley,
coach Of the eleven, and played a
practice game against the Crimson'a
inforanals yesterday afternoon.
The Brick1ey OUTFIT was heavy and
had a good kicker in Fitzpatrick OF
Mer1den, but could make few gains,
and Harvard had the ball In its op-
ponent's territory practically all the
time.
One touchdown was made on for
ward pass, Works to Blanchard, the
latter making a fast drive through
the line and scoring mainly because
of the fne interference provided for
him by Crosscup, one Of the new
backs.
The coaches are working hard to
get Harvard in trim for Saturday 5
game against the Camp Bartlett team
and to make UP the handicap caused
by the loss of Capt. Snow, Church and
Stone. 1t was expected that these
three men could play even though
they were attending the Ensi gins
school at Technology. The Harvard
officers were willing, but the men have
SO much work in their new courses
that they have no time for football

This Ia the percentage of the total
receipts of the first four games To
which the players were entitled. AS

the Giants got 61,157.79 and the
White Sox $s1,736,69.
At first the National Baseball COM
mission proposed to hold out $1,000
from each mans share, upon which
interest would be paid, until Dec. 1,
This was to insure the keeping of the
edict against transforming by cham
pionship teams after the close of, the
regular major league season. The
players. however. gave their word to
live up to this rule and the commits
sion thereupon decided to turn over
the full receipts.

STEAMROLLERS TURNED
DOWN $1,000 OFFER FOR
THANKSGIVING CONTEST


New Haven, Oct. 1s.-It was tho
original intention of the Annex foot
ball management to bring the Provi-
dence Steam BOILER to this city on
Thanksgiving day for the champion
ship of Connecticut and Rhode Island,
and by booking such an attraction
the New Haven football lovers. would
have seen one of the best teams which
ever booted a ball on a local gridiron
from the semf-professional stand
point, but because the Steam Roller
had already signed agreements with
one of the big Eastern college teams
to play in Providence that day, the
contest of course had to be crossed off
the prospective list.
The Providence management was
offered 81 200 as a guarantee or so per
cent. of the entire receipts. after they
figured that they could do better from
q financial standpoint in Providence
on Thanksgiving day, and will meet
one Of the strongest elevens In the
east.
