FIRST CONTEST
BETWEEN CITIES

The first inter-city football game
Is scheduled for tomorrow after
noon at Browning field, Moline,
when the fans association team of
that city meets the Davenport A. C.
According to advance rumors,
Moline is supreme confident of
coping the honors. On the other
hand, loyal Davenport fans say
that Coach Sizes men will unload
plenty of surprises.

Contest Promises to Be q Still
Fight Prom First Whistle to
the Final Blast.

When the Independents trot onto
the field tomorrow afternoon, they
will be prepared to battle hard TO
come out on the long end of the
score in the game with the Ham
burgs of Chicago. A week OF
strenuous practice, which was
wound up this afternoon, has put
every man on edge to meet the in
vaders from the Windy city.
That the Islanders will have to
fight to the last whistle to win is
pretty we'll established fact Just
as the Independents are out to
corp highest honors in the profess
sional field, so is the Hamburg out
fit, They are coming down with
plenty of confidence, but not an
overdose, as was the case two
years ago when they lost to Dav-
EXPORT, although admittedly 4
stronger team.
Is Big Game.
This game is counted one of the
biggest on the locals schedule. A
victory will provide the means
whereby comparisons can be made
with the strength of the other high
Iy reputed teams of Ohio and In
diana. Because, the Hamburgs are
scheduled to meet such aggrega-
tons later in the season.
1t is certain that the visitors will
present a formidable array of stars
rounded into mid-season form.
They have been hard at it for the
past several weeks, putting in four
and five nights weekly in rehears-
ais. Not only have they received
signal drill under the direction Of
Coach Wolf, but use has been made
also of the tackling dummy. The
coaching is precisely the same as
employed among colleges and uni
versities. Reports indicate that the
Hamburgs have one of the hardest
tackling outfits in the middle west
o. Smith on Hand.
o. z. Smith, former Drake star
and member of the Fourth division
team in France, arrived in the city
as per schedule yesterday. He was
out last night getting acquainted
with the fellows. Considering the
short time which he has to memoir
ize the signals, it is hardly likely
that he will be seen in action to-
morrow, but he will view the pas
time from the sidelines.
This man Smith is about fest
2 inches or more in height. He
tips the scales around the 1855 or
100 mark. Long and of the rangy
type of player, he possesses all the
ear-marks of an athlete. He plays
football because he loves the game.
Basing predictions on his past
performances, together with the
Iikeliness Of his appearance, grid
bugs can be certain that he will
put the finishing touches to a won
derful backfield aggregation.
Fat Smith will, no doubt, be in
uniform, but, acting on doctors
orders, ell watch the festivities.
Blood poisoning in one of his hands
has practically healed, but the doc
refuses to allow him to take a
chance on what might happen if he
should play.
Swanson played in whirlwind
fashion during the last quarter of
the game a week ago against Rock
ford, and he is expected to get ii
for some work tomorrow. Swan
son is capable of playing most any
old place in the lineup.
Paddy Quinn will be ready TO
take a hand in the proceedings if
called upon.

The Senate Bleeds for Ireland
From NEW YORK CALL.

So long as free hearts beat in the
.'patriotic" bosoms of United States
senators, the plea of Ireland for free
dom shall not go unheard. BY a
vote of 60 to | the senate has urged
the peace conference to hear Sim
Fein delegates in their demand for
irish freedom.
If this action will be Of any ser
vice to Irish aspirations, we shall be
happy 1t is certain that il any peo-
pie are entitled to control their own
life, it is the Irish, after their 700
years of bitter struggle against alien
rule Not that we believe that po-
litical Independence will solve all
Irish problems. But it will make pos
sible the real struggle for the con
quest of Irish industry and agrcul-
ture for the Irish working class
Only by this achievement can the
masses of Ireland become free from
either alien or domestic eXploita-
tion.
But the solicitude of the senate
for the people of another country
would be more convincing if it dis
played some heartburnings for a
country bounded on the north by
Canada and on the south by the Gulf
of Mexico and the Rio Grande. This

Cincinnati Reds
BY TOM SWOPE.
Sporting Editor of the Cincinnati
pncf
(Written for the United Press)

(Written for the United Press)
Cincinnati, June 16.-Having
been all around the league and more
than held their own in the first quar-
ter of the National league journey,
Pat Moran's Cincinnati Reds now
seem first division certainty this
season, with chance that they may
slip down home in front.
Although most of those who have
been picking the Reds to pieces to
see what they should do are leary of
Moran's pitching staff, those who
have followed the team closely do
not share this view.
It's quite true that Cincinnati's
hurting corps does not compare with
that of Brooklyn. New York and
Chicago also have better staffs-on-
paper than Cincinnati. But, in ac-
tual performance, the Red hurlers
have just about held their own with
any of the stars they have encoun-
tered.
Ray Fisher, Adolfo Luque and Hod
Eller, right handlers, so far have car
ried the brunt of Cincinnati's pitch
ing, each with considerable sue
cess.
Eller was the first major Lacquer
to pitch a no-hit game this season
and in addition to holding st. Louis
hitless he also shut cut Brooklyn's
hard hitting team in a 13-inning con-
test,
Moran also has the veteran Roy
Mitchell and young Jimy Ring as
right handlers and has four likely
southpaws in Slim Sallee, Rube,
Bressler, Walter Ruether and Eddie
Gerner At this writing he has not
got his staff working the way he
hopes to do later on. He realizes
his pitchers must be worked properly
for him to achieve winning results,
but one of the best things Pat has
in his managerial bag of tricks. is
handling his hurlers properly.
Outside of pitching there seems no
other department of play, save pos
sibly base running, where the Reds
have to take second place to any
team in the league, but are able to
cover as much ground as the next
team. And when it comes to batting
it will be real surprise if Cincin-
nati's team average at the end of the
season is not the highest or second
highest in the league.
Moran has three almost sure 800
hitters among those who play every
day in Ed Roush, Heinie Groh and
Jake Daubert Earl Neale is max
ing a noise like a big average this
season and so are Ivy Wingo and Bill
Rariden, Pats first string catchers.
Moran is shy on high class material,
but hopes to remedy this defect soon
and has scouts out combing the
bushes for infield, outfield and pitch
ing talent.
Given an even break in the luck
the Reds should run one, two, three
this year, while if things break their
way little more than usual Moran
may win a pennant on his first year
in Cincinnati just as he did on his
first season in Philadelphia.
AS for attendance, we'll, peace
time baseball certainly has it all over
the wartime brand in Cincinnati Be
fore starting east the Reds played
only 10 games at home but in those
ten they drew we'll enough to indi-
cate the club is in for a handsome
profit if the gait is maintained. De-
spite nasty weather two of the early
season crowds passed the 10000
mark, figure that was not reached
at any time last year.

Johnny O'Leary's Birthday,

Johnny OLeary, the western light
weight, was born i'll Seattle, Wash,
June 16, 1898. O'Leary began fight
ing in 1910, and has since fought
scores of good boys in the cities of
the northwestern states and western
Canada. In his first three years in
the ring Johnny fought more than
half a hundred contests, and never
got worse than draw His first
long battle was fought in 1913, when
he defeated Fighting Dick Hyland in
20 rounds at Sacramento. O'Leary
is real Irish, and is S feet ga in

Editor Bulletin
I thought your readers might
like some news from the Occur
d Alenes.
The old worn-out and obsolete
w. F. of NJ has suddenly displayed
signs of life and is making a hope
less effort to organize this district.
Two of those well-fed and sleek
appearing individuals known as or
ganizcrs are in our midst and are
eXhOrting us miners to come under
the dropping wings of Gompers
separation of labor by joining the
|. M. M. and S. WI, and get relief
from the awful conditions" under
which we are toiling. The executive
board, | believe, is here, and the
damaging admission is made that
conditions have been rotten for
twenty years. and yet that great
separation OF labor fakirs slumbered
on until they got orders from the
mine owners to get busy and head
off Il real labor movement which
would remedy the "rotten condi~
| tiOns' -
Yes said one, come under the
| banner of true protection and al
| filiate with fighters, CATERS and
stickers." And yet they have laid
back and boasted Of 100000 work
ers and allowed these "rotten con-
| ditions' to exist.
They have made four or five trips
to this camp (Mullan) and have sue
ceeded in getting Il few of the old
guard rounded up. They distributed
flaming posters around the company
works proclaiming an open meeting
and exhorting all miners to attend.
Rumors of strikes, demands and re-
| jections had been ripe for many
days, so we decided it was about
time to get together and pack the
! hall.
That same old line Of bunk that
has been in cold storage for thirty
years was dished up to us in goodly
measure. At the beginning they
stated they wanted to know why the
camp was unorgani2ed, but no op-
portunity was given anyone to tel
them.
These were the demands they
made on the mining companies OF
the district: A real eight-hour day
a fifty-cent raise in wages and recog-
milton of the union.

the choice morsels used, with telling

0,0OO,000. There are many of its
citizens in jail who in some respects
bear the same relation to this coun-
try that the Irish socialists and Sim
Feiners do to Ireland. Their press
has been largely destroyed, they are
subject to arbitrary laws, the mean

Why not adopt a resolution citing
these painful faces, and u,~e the

it will help any more than it will
help the Irish. But the transaction
will at least have the character or
