Applying this thought Borah said
today:
The war is over. The true test OF
democracy is whether, when war ends
democracy can get back to purely
democratic principles. Can it put be-
hind it arbitrary methods and meas

be forgotten as presidents and to b,
eliminated from our political system
Il shall offer more bills for repeal

can get to them, giving reasonable
time to clean up pending matters"

$50 BOOKS SOLD BIG SIX is BOSS
Hutchinson Is Still Far From
Her Baseball Goal.
Newspapers Have Little To Say
About Western League.

That the Western league is fight
ing an unusually hard uphill battle
in its effort to get started this season
is indicated by the small publicity it is
being given by the sport scribes of
the cities in which it plans to put and
keep clubs.
Despite the. fact that there is much
speculation about the probable COM
pletion Of the circuit, about the towns
that will and will not have clubs. and
in face of the fact that the delayed
schedule meeting is scheduled to be
held in Des Moines next Sunday, the
sport dopesters are strangely silent.
The following papers, representing
Western league cities, received at the
State Journal office today did not
contain one line about the Western
league or its trials and tribulations:
Omaha Bee. Tuesday morning. Feb.
26: Des Moines Capital, Monday even
ing, Feb. rs; Nebraska State Journal,
Lincoln. Tuesday, Feb. 26; St Joseph
Gazette, Tuesday Feb. 20; Hutchin
son Gazette. Tuesday, Feb. 26.
Hutchinson Still Working.
. The Hutchinson News of Monday.
Feb. Is reported that Hutchinson
Baseball boosters had sold $50 season
ticket books and that they are still on
the job. Previous announcements
have been made that hutchinson nad
practically sold the required number
of tickets and President Dickerson,
while in Topeka last week, asserted
that the Hutchinson Commercial club
had agreed to underwrite the ticket
campaign.
The only mention the Sioux City
Tribune of Monday. February 25.
makes of the western league is par
agraph in Edgar v. Moone's Moon
Beams in which he says: MANY of
the sport writing fraternity around
the western loop seem to be of the
opinion that the pretended pickering
in the deal between Jack Holland and
Ed Hanlon for the St Joseph fran
chise is all bunk. One thing is GER
tain, Jack is going right ahead max
ing his plans and preparations to be
in Hutchinson again this season"
What of Sioux City?
Sioux City continues to be the
enigma of the league and it seems
there is no definite understanding re-
garding Duckey Holmes plans to
transfer his Lincoln franchise to that
city. While in Topeka last week
President Dickerson said that he had
received a telegram from Holmes
stating positively that he would move
to Sioux City. But in announcing the
schedule meeting for Des Moines next
Sunday Dickerson told the Associated
Press Tuesday afternoon that Holmes
would probably announce definitely
what he would do at this meeting.
