the best argument.

The White Sox have been In a
world series. The Reds have not.
Therefore, the White Sox probably
win be inclined TO be a little more
steady than the Reds opening day.
A young pitcher in the box for
Cincinnati wouldn't help steady the
green world series team. But a
veteran world series pitcher would
tend to keep the team in balance.
That Is another argument In favor
OF Sallee.
a veteran catcher OF the National
league in discussing the pitching
possibilities OF the first game. said:
Sallee for I,eds?
II haven't talked with Moran
about his world Series assignments.
! do not believe he has said a word
as to who he would send in against
Cicottc. but II seems 10 me that
Rallee would be the man. He has
faced the music before and was cool
and collected under fire. That first
game will be hard one on the
pitcher. Both teams will fight
hard for the opening contest. be-
cause II means much TO them. Both

fire that afternoon-goat-ge getting
tactics by every member OF the op-
posing team. Cicotte can pitch as
well in a barrage of taunts as on a
field where only his admirers were
assembled. Sallec can. too. Whether
the younger pitchers OF the Reds

cote VIII be IN the box Tor the chicago
White Sox.
There is some doubt however. rs to who
will do the cunning for the Cincinnati Reds
hat day. The best guess at this stage of
he game appears TO be Slim Sallee. veteran
National Lacquer. who had his baptism of
ire in the world series between the Giants
md White Sox in 1917. If not Sallee, then
2euther.
Sallee has been going great for the Reds
his season. He is n veteran who is UNI
daunted in face of heavy fire from the
enemy. He will not show any signs of
stage fright when the White Sox cockily
advance to the batter's box with clubs
swinging menacingly. That is why Slim
Sallee is the best guess.
Some say Reuther. and think Reuther
will get the assignment because of the fact
he has been the best bet of the Reds all
season. But Reuther is youngster COM
pared with Sallee and he might not deliver
the goods against the confident and hard
hitting Sox with the veteran star Eddie
CHotte in the box.

A LOVER OF HUMANITY
That Is Closing Tribute to Lincoln by
Yates of Illinois.

In his final speech of the Lincoln
Memorial celebration given at the
auditorium Wednesday night Cover
nor Richard Yates now congressman
elect from Illinois. went into detail in
giving the inside history on the var
ious lives that Lincoln led
Yates made three talks in Topeka
Wednesday. One at the Chamber of
Commerce at noon One at a joint
meeting of the house and senate in
the afternoon. and one at the mass
meeting in the auditorium in the
evening.
In his speech at the auditorium
Yates paid high tribute to Lincoln's
method in every endeavor which he
undertook He told of the history of
Lincoln as lover, a politician. as a
statesman, and as just man. He said
that Lincoln was a lover of all hu-
mainly and that not for a single in
slant did the man of sorrows forget
that the people of the nation looked
to him to lead and comfort them in
the greatest sorrow which ever rended
the feelings OF the union.
Yates paid tribute to- many -ef-Ii1-
coins friends for their staunch sup
port of him in every crisis, and he
said that in his knowledge Lincoln
was the only man who having bitter
enemies was yet able to bring these
enemies into his cabinet and change
them into tied and true friends.

BETWEEN z FIRES
Oil Land Leasing Bill Cause of
Some Trouble.
Two Powerful Forces Oppose
Each Other on Measure.

Washington. Feb 13.-Congress to-
day is between two fires on the oil
land leasing bill.
Strong pressure for its rejection is
being. exerted by conservation of
the Pinchot school and by a national
organization representing thousands of
western farmers.
Equally urgent pleas for its ap-
prevail have come from President VIII
son and cabinet officers.
The conference report on the meas
ure. representing compromise on a
six-year fight. is pending in the house.
It's opponents charge:
That it nuIlifies conservation laws
passed after long and bitter struggles.
Opens Alaskan Coal Lands
That it throws Alaskan coal lands
open to control by big companies.
That it gives big business a chance
to get grip on coal. oil. gas, sodium.
Ignite and phosphate deposits in the
United States.
The bill as agreed to by conferees
authorizes the sale or lease of public
lands containing the above named de-
posits- The present law does not pro-
vide for leasing, but authorizes sale
of tracts up to $40 acres The pending
bilf increases this to 1850 acres, I'M
der certain restrictions. Only one
tract is allowed to be bought or leased
either directly or indirectly by one in
dividuaI or corportion.
1t includes Alaskan coal lands, hith-
erto closed TO private capital. It al
of 1850 acres each 200 miles of their
length, provided the roads use the
coal and do not sell it.
Naval Reserves, as Well.
Tt opens naval oil reserves to pri-
vate oil companies, to the extent that
the president may deem wise. Claim
ants of lands on naval reserves who
government are permitted TO remain,
unless they got the land by fraud and
are required TO pay the value of one
eighth of the oil as q royalty They
will get back seven-eighths of the
money which for years has been tied
up pending settlement of goveEument
custer suits This money represents
the oil already taken out
These are the provisions arousing
hostility.
Advocates of the bill declare it is
the best settlement of the yexatious
problem that can be obtained The
bill SO safeguards the peoples inter
ests in the public lands that no fraud
can go undetected, they assert The
royalties TO the government called for
under the leasing system will insure
the public a fair return on the prod
ucts, hackers of the measure say, while
the opening of these lands to lease Will
greatly stimulate production
Leave 1t to Secretary.
They point out also that the bill
gives the secretary of the interior
broad powers to reject applications
for lease or purchase if he believes it
in the public interest and carries
heavy penalties for violations.
Many millions of acres of land in
the west are affected.
President Wilson has cabled his de-
sire that the two houses should adopt
the conference report Tho a fight
probably will be made on if, admin
istration leaders said today it will be
adopted if if can be brought to a vote

HUNS WILL PROTECT
They Are Ready With Troops To
Guard Food for Poles.

Berlin. Feb II (delayed). The
railway administration at Danzig has
notified the government that the mil
itary authorities are not in a position
to furnish the necessary number of
troops to protect the first three Polish
relief ships which are due at Danzig
early next week, according to the
Kreuz Zeitung
The commander is said to have re-
quested that American troops be sent
but this has been refused because the
Americ' n commission insists that the
German government be responsible for
the protection of food shipments and
that Germany be obligated to make
good any losses The situation IS COM
picated by the failure of French or
American troops TO arrive which will
make necessary the policing of the
entire railway line from Danzig to the
Polish frontier The Danzig railway
adDiEistration therefore has sent an
urgent call to Berlin for the prompt
dispatch of an adequate number OF
troops
