back with their first run, now rose to
white heat. Nick Demaggio danced
like fiend in his joy, and when their
opponents came to bat and went down
in one -two-three order, it began to
look bad for the Hayden boys
However, the eighth inning proved
decisive. Ray drew blank. When
Hayden came to bat, WesterzeIl was
walked to first. Davis bunted and sent
him up a notch. Guests long hit to
centerfield sent Westerzell home and
himself to first Johnson (put in as
pitcher in this inning) struck out, but
Stadelli sent Guest 5, second on a low
grounder and made first, Kane, clos
ing the inning, going out on a fly.
The opening of the ninth inning
marked the really critical point of the
game. All now depended on whether
Ray could make use of their last op-
portunity to exceed or tie the score,
and every eye was on Scanlon as he
effectual efforts-and he was out on
a high fly. Beaumiller walked to first,
and when Demaggio following,
knocked long one to right field, we
held our breath. Stadelli was right on
the job, however, and nailed the pill
with unfailing precision. Smith, last
up, did his best even with two strikes
called on him. For the last time the
ball whizzed toward the plate. 1t
looked good, Smith made a mighty
swing and-fanned the air! AS he
threw down his bat and turned away
in disgust, mighty howl of joy went
up from the Hayden fans. The Mill
had won the second game also. The

All the rock that is coming from

are reached the values will be excep-

HAYDEN, Ariz., April 26-The game
between the Mine and the Mill, played
on Sunday the 22nd, was won by the
Mill by the narrow score of to 5. The
contest upheld the previous opinion
here that Hayden's victory in the
opening game was no mere fluke. but
real Victory, won by hard playing and
superior skill. Once more the fine
fielding of the Hayden team made it
self felt, and Ray was the loser through
singular fumbles and inability to Sc
cure a hit at the right time Also they
retained Bromley in the pitchers box
Brandt and substituted Johnson at a
critical stage of the game, and Rays
action is regarded here as a tactical
error. Delhi it is true, started to
warm up at the last moment, but so
near the end of the game that he never
had an opportunity to get in his work.
Rays trouble started with the first
inning, as they never got farther than
first base, when Scanlon walked, his
successors being easily caught out or
fouled out. Hayden, on the contrary
made three runs in the first inning:
Stadelli, first up, was walked. Kane
bunted, reached first, and sent Stadelli
to second. Mclean also bunted, sent
Stadelli home, Kane to second, and
himself reached first. Mcdonnell sac
rificed, sending Kane to third. Mclean
to second. Carisch knocked low sin
gle, bringing Kane and Mclean home.
Three runs were considered enough
for this inning, so Westerzell and
Davis did nothing and Carisch was put
out trying to steal second.
The second inning was blank for both
teams, but in the third Hayden made
two runs, when Mcdonnell. following
Meloans two-bagger, sent Mclean
across the plate and himself to second;
and Carisch, in turn, sent Mcdonnell
to home and reached first Westerzell
sent them up a NOTCH Guest bunted,
the bases were full, and it looked good
for another run, but Brandt was caught
out at the crucial moment.
The fifth inning saw Ray make the
first run when Beaumiller and Behr-
wald made safe hits, and Demaggio
with a. two-bagger to centerfield, sent
his man across the plate. Hayden
made nothing in this inning nor in the
next, but in the sixth Ray got another
run which Behrwald started with a
long hit to centerfield;- Hosp was
walked, and both reached second and
third respectively on a passed ball.
Tonneman,. following, knocked a fly
which sent Behrwald home.
The seventh inning, which marked
Hayden's success in the opening game,
also was red-letter performance for
Ray when they scored three runs 1t
opened by Brandt walking Scanlon.
Beaumiller sent Scanlon to third and
went to second. Demaggio sent Scan
Ion to the home plate, Beaumiller to
third, and reached second. Smiths
hit looked good but Beaumiller was
put out between bases; Demaggio made
third and Smith reached second.
Behrwald, last up, sent Demaggio and
Smith across the plate and got to first.
This tied the score, and Rays old

SUFFRAGE AND SOME FIGURES.

Suffragists will find little comfort in figures
showing the popular vote in states where the
question has been decided by the people. They
classify Ohio as state where women have
won the vote; but they do not explain that the
Legislature gave Ohio women presidential suf
frage after the people had voted the PROPOSE
ton down by a majority of more than eighty
seven thousand in 1912 and by a majority OF
more than one hundred and eighty thousand
two years later. In Nebraska also the people
defeated equal suffrage by majority of ten
thousand, but the legislature passed partial
suffrage bill; and in both these states the peo
pie are soon to pass upon the action of their
legislatures.
During the last four years fourteen great
states with population of forty three millions
have repudiated equal suffrage by majorities
aggregating more than a million votes. Dur
ing the same time two states, Nevada and Mon
tana, with a population both together of less
than half a million, have adopted equal suf-
frage by majorities of few thousands; and the
population of all the states of the union which
have adopted equal suffrage at the polls is less
than one twelfth of the total population Of the
United States
There is much to indicate that the high tide
Of suffragsim was reached and passed before
the war of the world began. There was less
of serious import to think of then. Now it is
different.

Aside from the railroad question,

WORK FOR OUR HIGHER SCHOOLS.

Considerable information as to Germany s
preparation for trade resumption after the
war is to be found in foreign magazines, par
ticularly in those published i'll Switzerland and
Holland. From these and other sources W. G..
Aughnbaugh, who writes on trade topics TOR
Lesle's, has compiled some data as to the
work being done in the universities and the
higher schools of Germany to prepare for the
tremendous effort she will make to regain her
foreign trade. There have been for the past
two years courses in foreign trading offered in
all such German schools. A number Of the sub
ects are too technical for discussion for profit,
but it is to be noted that the greatest stress is
laid upon language study. Students are re-
quired to choose at least two of the following
languages: Russian, Spanish Portuguese Pol
ish, Turkish, Arabic, Slavonian and Chinese It
is Of course known that English is required al

An Appeal to Vote "Yes.v


To the Editor of The Gate City:
When Theodore Roosevelt was
president Of the United States, in an
address he said:
"The valley of the Mississippi is
politically and commercially more
important than any other valley on
the face Of the globe. Here, more
than anywhere else, will be deter.
mined the future Of the United
States, and, indeed, of the whole
western world; and the type of civil
lization reached in this mighty val
ley, in this vast stretch Of country
lying between the Alleghanies and
the Rockies. the great lakes and the
gulf, will largely fix the civilization
for the whole western hemisphere"

which Mr.. Roosevelt says is so very
important politically"
