Unless the conditions are changed to the full satisfaction of the federal authorities, the result of the recent vote on the liquor license questions will be an empty victory for tho sa- 1oonmen. or the great majority of them. Therefore it is up to these men to assist in this general reform work, and to see to it that the liquor busi- ress is conducted on a strictly legal basis. Should the government take the matter in hand it would mean the hermeticaIly sealing of many, saloons license or no license. Tn the event of the interference of the governme ent, there would be a restricted area under federal patrol, and the selling of liquor would be absolutely prohibited within half mile of the naval quarters at the state pier and within half mile of the the Coast Guard academy at Fort Trumbull. Although the mayor has gone gunning. or fishing, there will be no let up on the. enforcement of the liquor laws, state and national. Tn the mayors absence, Senior Alderman Elias Frank Morgan will be tAe act ing mayor, and vested in full aut1or- ity, and maybe he don't know how to exerci3N that authority. He may be real mayor sometime, and he will now have opportunity to show the people what he would do were he the mayor.

Warren 2; Fargo-NIoorhead $,

Warren frightened its hold on the
cellar position in the Northern league,
when it lost to the Fargo-MoOrhead
top-notchers yesterday evening, by a
score of five to two, on the Fargo dia-
mond. However, it was a good ball
game and the local club put up the
best exhibition of the national sport
so far this season. The Warren club
has been strengthened considerably of
late and hereafter will give the other
clubs a merry chase.
Warren secured the first two runs of
the game in the second frame and not
until the fourth was Fargo able to tie
the score. In the seventh the "Twins''
scored two more runs and in the eighth
they managed to tally once more
Thomas was little weak in, the first
part of the game, but after the locals
had touched him for two runs, he
frightened up and threw alright ball.
Wilkus made strong showing during
the first few frames, but Denney Sui
livan's heavy hitters at intervals
proved to be to much for him and
grabbed ten blows at his expense.

MANY PLAYERS CALLED,
But VERY few STAY
Personnel of Teams In the Major
Leagues Changes Often.

When the ball players begin to tell
about the enormous profits made by
the magnates and demand larger cut
of these profits than they may happen
to be getting at the moment they over
look one very important item.
This Is the enormous amount that
must be charged to depreciation each
season. There probably is no other
business in which this item is proper
tionately so large, unless perhaps it Is
the munitions making game, in which
an explosion is likely to blow the plant
right of the map at any moment.
1t is, of course, among the players
that the depreciation takes place. On
the buildings and grounds the rate is
just about normal, but the athletes
have to be renewed often, and hardly
one comes into possession Of a big
league club without considerable ex-
pense being involved in his acquisition.
Just to cite an example of how fast
a ball clubs personnel changes, take
the roster of the Tigers at the begin
ming Of the 1915 season. There is
picture hanging in President Navin's
Office that was taken opening day two
years ago. Twenty-eight men are in
the group.
Manager Jennings and Coach Jimmy
Burke may be listed as noncombatants,
which leaves only twenty-sx active
players. OF this number only twelve
remain on the Detroit muster rolls.

VA ENDLETON'S reputation
I'd as a place where the peo-
pie work together as one
when community interests or
responsibilities are at stake
has been greatly emphasized
by the manner in which the
editorial convention was handl-
ed. 1t was a subject of com
mon discussion by the visitors
that our town is more foTtu-
nate in this respect than al
most any other place in the
west. Not only do the people
cooperate but they go into the
game with intenseness and en-
ergy. Plainly this is the way
to do. If thing is worth doing
at all it is worth doing right.
If it is a matter of community
concern the burden should fall
upon no clique or faction but
upon all.
