On Wednesday the Agency fans
were treated to a real ball game
between the Boarding School boys
and the Gettysburg High School,
and while Gettysburg lost, it was
not because they played bad ball,
but because our boys played better
ball. On several occasions Gettys-
burg had men on second and third,
but our pitcher turned the next
hatters back and left the Burg
scoreless on double play
from short to first to home.
The game was better than the
score indicates. The Indian boys
none of them over fifteen years
of ge--looked we'll in their new
suits, but that did not detract from
their play and numerous fine plays
were made. All deserve much
credit. Following are the names
of the players with their scores:

LICENSE AND ILLiTERAcY.

One Of the claims of the defenders
Of the liquor traffic is that prohibition
states have large percentage of illit-
eracy than have license states. They
proceed to prove ii by grouping to-
gether the license states having the
best showing in this respect, and
against these they group Southern
states such as Georgia, Mississippi
and North Carolina, having very
large colored population. The illiteracy
in these states comes to us as relic
OF slavery days, and existed there in
even n large percentage before the
adoption of prohibition.
Comparing the New England states,
we find that Maine-with prohibition
has the lowest percentage Of Hit
eracy Of any with the exception OF
Vermont, and Vermont had no licensed
saloons for so years previous to May
l, 1903, and last year had license in
only II towns. If prohibition promotes
illiteracy, then the most illiterate
states In the Union ought to be Maine,
Kansas and Vermont. On the con-
trary there are only four states In the
Union where the percentage of Hit
cracy Is lower than In Kansas, while
Maine and Vermont present the most
favorable showing Of the New England
states,

Elections in Land Of Nippon.

The japanese people are satisfied
with the result of the election Of April
20, but agitation regarding expense at
tending canvass for n seat In parlla-
ment is renewed. The same argument
is heard rs those after the last gen
eral election, according to East and
West. The Chugai Shogyo estimates
the cost of 600 candidates at not less
than S2,640,0O0! This is more than
representatives In the United States
expend, but senators have been known
to pay half million for seats in that
body. The Chugai says the govern
ment spent 100000 for supervising
the election. which, to Americans, will
appear moderate. This sum includes
"stumping trips" through the country
by cabinet ministers; members Of the
opposition paid their own expenses.
The editor regrets that so many men
entitled to vote fail to exercise their
high privilege. Repeated dissolution
of the diet not only causes political
disturbances, he argues, but imposes
heavy financial loss upon the nation
and upon individuals.

o my comrades, have you heard the
glorious news that's going around,
Therell very soon be no saloon on all
Columbia's ground.
There's a wave of Prohibition rolling
up from every strand
And all the states it mandates
straightway become dry land.
Maine Is at the head, for she has led
for half hundred years,
And Kansas great and North Dakota
stand among their peers
Georgia next and Oklahoma won
place among the free,
Alabama, Mississippi, North Carolina,
Tennessee.
West Virginia, and Virginia too, and
Colorado's white.
Arizona then, with Washington, and
Oregon's all right.
Arkansas and Iowa came next, with
Idaho for mate,
And then came South Carolina, the
old Palmetto state.
Then Michigan, who speeded up, Mon.
tana great and grand,
Nebraska's rolling prairles and South
Dakota land.
Then along came Indiana, the Hoosler
state so dear;
And Utah also said good-by to whs-
ky, wine and beer.
New Hampshire next, the Granite
state, then sounded liquors doom,
She sternly told John Barleycorn, "for
you we have no ROOM"
The District of Columbia, on old Po-
tomac's shore,
Where stands our nations capitol, will
see saloons no more.
And shining DER the polar star, Alas
ka's golden light,
And all the states will follow till we
make the map all white.

SALOON DEAD ENEMY OF LABOR.

Organized labor should be opposed
to the saloon because the interests of
the saloon are always opposed to the
interests of the workingman.
The way to find out whether or not
organized labor can afford to stand for
the saloon is to find out what organ
lied labor itself stands for, and then
see how the saloon comes up to its
standards.
Organized labor believes in better
jobs for the workingman, in greater
efficiency in increased wages, in the
abolition of child labor, in the dignity
and elevation of womanhood, and In
the preservation Of the home.
The saloon breaks everyone of these
andards.-Chlrles Sickle.

AS DESTRUCTIVE AS WHISKY.

Doctor Struempei!, German physi-

that beer is less of social enemy

Nothing is more erroneous from the
physicians standpoint than to think of
diminishing the destructive effects of
alcoholism by substituting beer for
other alcoholic drinks, or that the vic
tins of drink are found only in those
countries where whisky helps the peo-
pie of low grade of culture to forget
their poverty and misery"
