ID D|SMANTLE NAVAL DEPOTS
 IN IRELAND

QUEENSTOWN, Ireland, Feb, T. By A. P.- Plans for the dismantl- ing of the American naval stations il, and around Queenstown are going for ward rapidly. Time will be required to remove the base hospital at Whie- point, and much work will be involv ed in removing the many big ware houses which were brought here from America important parts of the Am erican plant include wireless stations at Queenstown and Aglada and many hutments.
 American officers and men have made deep impression on the people of Queenstown and in other parts of South Ireland, and relations generally have been of the most cordial nature. ThiS is proved by the fact that a num- Der of weddings have already taxea place, and more than one American sailor has promised to return for the girl he must leave behind.
 Queenstown has prospered greatly since the station was established here. but the people declare their regret in seeing the Americans depart is be- cause they have become accustomed to their presence and like them for the fine young fellows they are.

bouts at the cirque de. Paris were
treated to real fighting by Mike
O'Dowd middleweight champion Of
the world.
Mike had been sparring through
three u~neventful rounds of his four
round exhibition with Jackie Clark
when the doughboys and officers pres
ent were amazed to see O'Dowd rush
out and batter the bewildered Clark
with terrific Furnishing blows. Clark
went staggering back to his corner.
The crowd ignored the fact that
during the bout Jimmie Bronson, the
referee walked to O'Dowd's corner
and said:
IF you don't, inject a little pep in
to this round I will raise Clark's hand
and end the bout and there goes your
championship"
O'Dowd said something to the effect
that Bronson would eve leave the
ring alive if he gave the decision tc

EVANS EXPLAINS
BOSTON BETTING
Umpire Billy Declares Fans
Bet to Back
:, Judgment.

Umpire Billy Evans Of the Ameri-
4 league gives the best explanation
for the existence Of gambling in the
major league ball parks in Boston.
II indeed. gambling does really exist
in the Hub. He says it has been his
experience that only students Of a
game are likely to gamble. In Boston,.
according to Evans. almost every fan
is q deep student Of baseball, and
therefore likes to wager a little coin
ofSthe realm on his Judgment.
/ II do not take the stand that those
who gamble on baseball in Boston
are trying to do baseball an injury"
whatever wagering is done, comes
about as result of the fans trying to
find vindication Of their Judgment"
Evans declares Boston fans are very.
particular. He says it is the hardest
city in the country for umpires. be-
cause the rank and file is well versed
in the rules of the game. and in a
tors are as we'll informed as the man
who is rendering the decisions.
II like to work in Boston," said
Evans, "for on every trip there I have
no trouble to get into a tanning bee
during the evenings about the hotel.
1t keeps me up. to form on the ticklish
tsituations which are likely to arise.
and many times I am confronted with
problems that absolutely stall me I'M
til I have an opportunity to work
them ont. When fans bother them
! selves to delve int the mysteries of a
proposition, you can bet your last
dollar they are going to be critical Of
the more common things"
n Evans theory that the man who is
we'll posted On a subject is more apt
to want to wager than the man with
not a casual knowledge for knowing
! does bring a desire for Findication.
| Many reports Of. the gambling cpl
sodes In Boston ball parks nave been
|greatly exaggerated. according to
Evans.

STATE POLITICS.

A few weeks ago old man Wei
Ter. the real boss of the Repub-
lican party. gave out the dope
that Mr.. James A. Gary. Jr., of
Baltimore. and one of the rich
men of that burg. was to he the
Republican nominee for Cover
nor. The Republican newspap-
ers fell for Mr.. Gary and asSur-
ed the dear public that he was
Just the right man. but the little
bosses told old man Weller that
Mr.. Gary would never do. that
he was entirely too quiet and
unobtruSive. that they knew a
nice fellow in Baltimore who
could do the glad hand stunt to
the vote-getting tune Of Victory
and apparently old man Weller
has capitulated and the Nice
man will be the Republican can
dldate. In the regular Republi-
can way he is already elected.
We have seen a few State cam
paignS and we never yet saw
one when the Republicans were
not cock-Sure Of winning. They
have managed to pull their State
candidates through three times
in fifty years. and always by
reason of dissatisfaction in the
Democratic party. The Demo
Gratis are not saying much right
now. but they are doing heap
of thinking about getting to-
gether.' burying their differ
ences and winning the election
all along the line.
1t is pretty certain there will
be party conference Of the
Democrats and candidates will
be selected by the representa-
tives of the people regardless of
faction and not by a few rich
men as the Republicans have
done.

KEEP THEM OFT.

The Messenger agrees with
The Baltimore American in its
contention that foreign muir
derers, anarchists and their COM
patriots be sent back to the coun-
try from whence they came
Here's what The American says:
There is pending before the
House Committee on Immigra-
ton a bill the purpose of which
is to extend indefinitely the war
policy of handling all forms of
reasonable offense-which is to
say, all forms of conspiracy
against government institutions.
1t is proposed to extend the war
time deportation laws to the
after-war period. All varieties
of anarchistic propagandists. all
plotters and Suggesters of Sabot-
age, all who have been convicted
of interference with govern
mental policies. who are aliens.
should be sent back to where
they came from and should
never again be allowed to set
foot in this country. And those
who belong to the foregoing
classification of criminals or
crime promoters, who are not
aliens, should be treated as trea-
son mongers and treason breed
ers and he put in the isolation of
a prison.
A favorite Bolshevik phrase
is freedom of the word" There
has been no freedom of the
word" in Bolshevic ruled Rus
STA. except for the Bolshevic-in-
spired word. And when free
dom of the word" means free
dom to plot murder. arson. the
overthrow of law and order
freedom for foreign-born anar-
chists to preach anarchy to the
criminally inclined-it is certain
~ time to put a few hedges
around this kind of freedom.
The thing can be done without
hindering discussion that is to
sane purpose.
There is no reason whatever
for experimenting that anarchy
will ever score an important sue
cess in this country. The anar-
chistic bands should be cleaned
out on the same principle that
organized brigandage bands as
sociated for cattle stealing or
burglary should be gathered in.
The law to deal with anarchy
and with all reasonable pro-
pagandism must be made eff
cient.
