the SoN had put In 26 INNINGS without
q run. Their once famed attack had
been crushed. Then they got started
and In their last 90 innings they scored
IA runs, But their rally had arrived
too late. Tho Reds had obtained too
great a lead and Gleason had no pitch

safely through, Take the case Of Eddie
Collins, In his first six games he
drew but two singles. In HIS last two
games he made five smashing hits, but
he, too, had started his rally too late,

The Reds undoubtedly earned their
triumph. They played the best BAH and

machine. by the old order they would
nave cleaned up the series four games

with Jackson leading in offensive play,

THE FLOOR TO NEWMAN.

In the inexpressibly large following Of
Red rooters there Is one who is not sur
prised: who not only was with the band
from the start, but furnished reasons
that since have PANIED out TO the last
word.
The nam is Bill Newman. late Of
Tennessee and the ancient Chicks, and
at present generalissimo of the New
man A. c.. where fat men train down
and thin ones pick up.
About two days before the massacre
was under way Bill gave out the fol-
lowing official statement. II am with
the Reds first, last and always, and !
can not see where the Sox have the
machine. In the first place, where
%youngsteT is rarely ever beaten in a test
Of endurance by an old timer. The vet
eran may have the brains and all the
rest of II, but In nine cases out Of every
ten the kid will win.
ITO my a of reasoning, the Reds
possess one OF the grandest pitching
stats that has ever faced a National
league campaign. They are not limited
to q pair Of stars and another mighty
good kid, as are the Sox, but they have
Reuther, Ring and Eller, all of whom
have pitched fine ball during the year;
Slim Sallee, n of the brainiest and
steadiest southpaws in the show as a
dependable veteran, and a good Cuban
In Luque.
More than that the team has fought
back the combined attack OF the strong
est clubs in the league and has dis
played enough gameness to choke a
whale.

sum,

Joe Slattcry had 1t figured this way:
Chicago was depending too much upon
Cicotte, and | happened to read one day
that he wasn't right after barely beat
ing the Red Sox, | didn't know much
about the Reds, but l did feel that Chi
eago couldn't win without fine pitching.
That's why | bet on the Reds-and col
lected."
Then there is the ase OF Paul Green,
who didn't bet a million on the Reds
for one reason alone-he didn't have the
million. The eXcuse Is one Of the most
acceptable on record.
II will require little stretching OF
the imagination to surmise that the
band OF Texas oil men presented Dick
Kerr with quite a wad after running
up two straight victories.
A party OF five had one to the games
in a special car, and had announced
that on Kerr days they were prepared
to take on all bets up to n million.

It is remarkable fact that every

1t is remarkable fact that every
speaker in favor Of the League
of Nations, at some time in the
course of his remarks, rings in
the statement that the covenant
will prevent future wars, and
those opposed to the League are
necessarily in favor of the old
order. The whole tenor of the
speeches are along these lines,
and never a word about setting
up a super government to take
the place of our present form of
government, of the people, by
the people and for the people.
Every good American citizen is
opposed to war, and all would
hail the day of universal peace
if it can be accomplished with
out forfeiting our dignity as
nation, or sacrificing our rights
as free American citizens.

1t is said the meat packing
trust now controls more than
eighty per cent of all the food
products in this country, and, per-
haps, if the Senate approves the
League of Nations, which will
make us a party to guaranteeing
the payment Of debts of other
nations, within a few years the
meat packers trust will practi-
callp have control of the food
products of the world. Already,
anticipating the event, represent
atives of the packers are invad.

We hope all the people who are
anxious to trade off their Liberty
Bonds, or invest their surplus
money in worthless oil stock,
will hold back a few weeks until
the editor gets in his supply
of handsome Autographed stock
certificates which will be issued
with bit of beautiful blue rib
bon fastened under a gold seal.
They will be a beautiful work of
art suitable for framing, and be
ever a constant reminder of the
guilelessness of man. We will
guarantee that none of the mon
ey will ever be returned, and we
will continue selling stock to pay
our salary as the promoter just
so long as we can find a sucker
to bite. Of course we shall ex-
pect every sucker to be booster
for the alleged oil field, because
that will make it easier to land
more victims. Watch for the al
Turing prospectus how to get to
be millionaire over night, that
will soon issue from the press.
We are particularly interested in
getting all the railroad boys to
let loose a piece of money from
their fat pay checks.

The people in many states of
the Union are so jealous of their
rights to be consulted in the MAX
ing of laws that the privileges
of the initiative and referendum
has been written into the stat
utes, Notwithstanding the men,
bers of the legislature are elect
ed by direct vote of the people
in limited districts. But under the
League of Nations covenant as
proposed, the member from the
United States is appointed, by
what process not yet provided,
and no provision is made for the
initiative and referendum on any
of his acts. His vote on any
question is just as absolute and
binding on the United States as
a final decision of the u. S. Su-
preme Court, giving him even
more power than is now posses
sed by the President or Congress.
The only apparent safeguard in
the covenant is a provision that
it requires the unanimous vote of
the council to adopt any measure
that comes before it, and with the
experience this country has had
with men. in high places, betray-
ing their stituents for person
al advantage, this nation is TAX
ing a long chance in permitting
one man, appointed to the coun-
Gil. to represent nation of a
hundred million people. T h e
league has power to pass amend
ments to strengthen the inf1u-
ence of league of the nations,
and even if the present agree
ment seems harmless to the Unit
ed States, if once we enter, and
our representative casts his vote
with other eight members to
amend the present draft with ad-
ditional restrictions, or giving
them additional powers, we will
be bound by the acts. 1t is too
much power. and the temptation
is too great, to place in the hands
Of any one man.

With all the noise and shout
ing about taking care of the SOL

boys their places, with all accru-
ing seniority rights, as soon as
they were ready to go to work,
and there were no grand-stand-

ence between Mr.. Tuttle and
other large employers of men, is,
that when he told the boys their

"We, therefore, the represen-
tatives of the United States of
America, in general congress as
sembled, appealing to the Su-
preme judge of the world for the
rectitude of our intentions, do,
in the name, and by authority of
the good people Of these colonies,
solemnly publish and declare, that
these united colonies are, and of
right ought to be, free and indie
pendent states; that they are ab-
solved from all allegiance to the
British crown. and that all polit-
ical connection between them and
the State of Great Britain, is and
ought to be totally dissolved; and
that as free and independent
states they have full power to
levy war, conclude peace, con-
tract alliances, establish COM
merce, and do all other acts and
things which independent states
may of right do. "-Declaration
of independence.
And now we are asked to join
a League of Nations that will set
up superior government to ours,
which will be direc5ed by nine
members, six of whom will be
dominated by England, and the
United States will have one vote.
Even this one representative,
who will have so much power for
good or evil, is not to be elected
by the people. The war was to
establish a world democracy, but
for the United States it means
the death of democracy and the
establishment of autocracy. Our
revered Declaration of Independ-
ence also holds that governments
should derive their just powers
from the consent of the governed.

With the adoption of the peace
treaty and the League of Ma
tions as now drafted and before
the Senate for ratification, every
one of the allied powers, with
the single exception of the Unit
ed States, reaps some material
advantage either in territory or
indemnities; the United States
comes away empty handed, al
though we contributed without
stint in blood and treasure. Not
only do we come away from the
peace table empty-handed, but it
is demanded we surrender our
rights and privileges as Ameri-
can citizens to make the League
of Nations possible. We can re-
cover from the financial loss the
war entailed; we can revere and
honor the memory of the boys
who are sleeping in the sacred
soil baptized by their blood; but
when we are called upon to sur
render our liberties and political
independence in the keeping of
the crowned heads of Europe to
make a league possible, we are
making the supreme sacrifice as
a nation and sounding the death
knell of democracy.

article &C."

Inc most dangerous provision
of the League of Nations cove
nant to the free institutions of
the United States, and one that
so far in the discussion of the
document in the Senate, has not
been mentioned by speaker, is
found in the closing paragraph
Article 26. 1t reads:
Amendments to this covenant
will take effect when ratified by
the members of the League whose
representatives compose the
Council and by a majority of the
members of the League whose
representatives compose the As
sembly.
No such amendment shall bind
any member of the League which
signifies it's dissent therefrom,
but in that case it shall cease to
be a member of the League.
Will some one explain clearly
to our beclouded mind exactly
the complete process of adopting
an amendment to the covenant?
If an amendment is proposed by
a member of the Council or AS
sembly, what will be the method
pursued for it's adoption? will
it be adopted and be binding by
simply the affirmative vote of the
representatives of the signatory
powers composing the Council
and Assembly, or will it require
the approval of the several pow
ers? And where will the ap-
proving authority be vested? A
proclamation or ukase by the rul-
ing heads, or will it go to the
people for a vote? In other coun
tries where the people have no
voice in the affairs of govern
ment the manner of approval is
of small moment, but in this
country, where we believe gov
ernment derives it's just powers
from the consent of the govern
ed, it is of vital Importance how
amendments to the League COW
enant are approved.
So jealous are our people of
their rights that they will not al
low the President and Congress
to adopt any amendment to
our constitution, Notwithstanding
they are all elected by a direct
vote of the people. Congress
can pass an amendment, but be-
fore it becomes effective it must
be approved by three fourths of
the states; and recently the fur
ther question has been raised,
that where a state legislature
has approved a constitutional
amendment, if the state has a
referendum law the act is not
final until it has been approved
on a referendum vote to the peo-
pie. Will the people of the Unit
ed States be satisfied with less
safeguards surrounding amend
ments to the League covenant,
which is nothing less than a con-
stitution for world govern
ment?
The last paragraph of Article
26 is the threat of the Leagues
vengence if country refuses to
approve all proposed amend
ments offered. 1t matters not
how much an amendment may
conflict with, or destroy our dem
ocracy, failure to approve will
at once justify the League to de-
clare an embargo on all trade
and intercourse with the United
States under another article in
the covenant granting them that
power to enforce their edicts.
