CONFIDENT OF PENNANT

NEW YORK. April 16.-John j.
McGraw, winner Of the 1917 National
league championship, with his Giants,
and chief title holder to the second
best worlds series sprinter, in the
person of Heinie Zimmerman, led
his Giants into their opening game Of
the season here today. Larry Doyle
and Jess Barnes, at last reports, had
become the real property Of the
Giants, so the band was instructed
to start 'er up.
EARLY dispatches from Philadelphia
were to the effect that Herzog had
signed q contract with the Braves,
after a long period Of threatening to
hold UP the deal by which he was
turned over to the Stallings aggrega-
ton. Governor John K. Tener, presi-
dent OF the National league, had been
quoted as saying he would be forced
ITO order the Giants to return Doyle
and Burns to the Braves unless Her
zog consented to report to Stallings.
The Giants opening was the first
home appearance on the first day of
the season since 1915. New York
fans are counting on them to repeat
to their performance year ago in
winning the pennant. But many crit
les are figuring on Cincinnati to
prove the stumbling block in their
poth The Reds will get under head
way at home, the Pirates being their
visitors.
In Cincinnati.
CINCINNATI, Ohio, April 16.-Cin-
cinnati's pet holiday-opening Of the
baseball season-today dawned ex-
tremely cloudy and it seemed that
rain might descend at any time and
put a damper on the festivities.
About $4,000 seats already are sold.
Walter Ruether probably will pitch
the opener for the Reds with Wilbur
Cooper hurting for Pittsburgh. Both
are southpaws.
Alexander to Pitch.
ST. LOUIS. Mo-. April 16.-Grover
Alexander and Charlie Weeghman.
president of the Chicago Cubs, dis
mounted from the same train here
today and joined their team. Alex
ander was to pitch the opener here
today against the st. Louis Cardinals
if the two days Of Pullmanizing has
not robbed him of condition.
The Cubs are convinced Alexander
intends to join the navy before he
can be drafted into the national army.
Lee Meadows, specialized twirler,
was to oppose the Cubs.

CHICAGO, April 16.-There was a
lot of confidence among the White
Sox when they lined up today behind
Eddie Cicotte, that the story OF a
world championship for the Chicago
americans would be repeated this
wear. Opposing Cicotte was Grover
Lowdermilk. of the st. Louis Ameri-
cans, hero of spring series in which
the Cardinals were swept from the
map.
Eddie Cicotte drew the opening job,
partially because Manager Rowland
Yielded to a superstitious strain and
started the season as he did the 1917
world series.
The return Of Captain Eddie Col
Inns. who had been Ill, permitted the
starting of the regular lineup which
this year includes "swede" Risberg at
third. Fred McMnllin, baptlsed in the
big series last fall, will warm the bench
temporarily There was plenty Of
color at the opening. Comiskey had a
band in operation. 400 jackies brought
another musical outfit and group Of
soldiers were led by still another.
The big stand was festooned from
one end to the other with allied flags
and colors
Lefty williams was possible al
ternate for Cicotte; Urban Shcsker for
Lowdermilk.

cited, 1 was unwilling that Louisiana
should be recorded in the history of
the nation differently from what
would have been here expressed senti-
ment, if a full Senate had been pres
ent to vote on ratification.
'T have, therefore, called you in
extra session principally for the pur-
pose of,further considering this great
moral and economic question. The
people of the various states, and of
the United States, have expressly
said in the Federal Constitution that
you must decide whether Louisiana
is for or against this, or any other,
Federal amendment submitted to you
by the Congress. A referendum,
therefore, is out of order until the
people again speak and change from a
representative to a referendum
policy
81 have believed, and still believe,
that Louisiana is not ready for more
statewide prohibition for the reason
that the percentage Of her population
opposed to prohibition is too great
for the proper enforcement of state
law to that effect. Successful state
wide prohibition can be ultimately
accomplished only through the oper-
alton of local option until sufficient
ly large percentage of the parishes
and population adopt prohibition and
thus insure the enforcement of law
embracing the whole state. This has
been demonstrate by the experience
of the prohibition states of the union.
''Insofar as nationwide prohibition
is concerned the United States is
ripe for such policy. More than
eighty per cent of the territory of
Continental United States is already
dry and about seventy per cent Of
the nations population lives in dry
territory. She is, therefore, in a
position to secure the approximate
enforcement Of prohibition laws. The
anti-prohibition population and ter
ritory Of Louisiana may be fairly

Gov. Pleasant Urges
Legislature To Radfy
Prohibition Amend
ment
"It viii Make Stronger lndi-
yiduals, Greater People
And A Mightier Nation"

Baton Rouge, La, Aug. 3.-Ratl-
fication of the prohibition amend
ment of the Constitution Of the
United States was strongly recon-
mended by Governor Pleasant in his
message Monday to the extraordi-
nary session of the General Assem-
bly,. The governor takes the position
that the attitude of the STATE of
Louisiana toward the. federal amend
ment should not be left in doubt and
urged the Senate and House to place
the stamp of their approval on the
proposition to place Intoxicating
liquor under the ban of the national
organic law The remainder of the
governors message was mainly de-
voted to giving his reasons for in
cluding other subjects in his procla-
nation. The message follows:
"This week four years ago Ger
many began her assault upon the
liberties of the world. Her cncroach-
ments extended to this republic. We
resorted to every honorable means
to avoid war, but German aggres-
sions, hostilities, insults and crimin-
atty forced us to take up arms in
defense of our dignity and the prop
erty and the lives of our citizens.
Once in the great conflict the ma
tional government resolved that moth
ing should remain undone to accom-
plish certain and overwhelming vic
tory. The President, the Cabinet,
and the Congress Of the United
States quietly concluded that one Of
the wisest and best laws that should
be adopted in order that the arm and
brain of both soldier and civilian
might be developed to their highest
state of efficiency was the prohibit
ion by the nation of the traffic of in
toxicating liquors.. The great ma
iortiy of the people of this country
are in accord with this view, and

nation is a certainty. / trust that
Louisiana will not fail or further fal-
ter in her affirmative approval of this
great movement.
Opposes Referendum.
During the recent regular session
of the General Assembly the House
of Representatives favored the ratifi-
cation of the national prohibition
amendment by vote of seventy to
forty-four.
'The Senate did not positively vote
against ratification, but merely failed
to approve the amendment by a tie
vote Of twenty yeas to twenty nays.
One seat in the Senate was vacant on
account of the resignation of the SEN
ator from the Twenty-Seventh sena
torial district. This district is known
to be in favor Of prohibition in any
and every form.
