ANOTHER SUMNER WITHOUT BASE
BALL IN BARRE.

A summer season is passing without
baseball team in Barre. More than
three months of the best baseball wealth
or that an anxious manager could hope
for have been wasted as far as exhibition
of the national pastime is concerned,
Fans and would be fans have sat around
in the pool rooms, paraded the streets or
housed themselves up in disgust over the
lack of an opportunity to get out in the
open, to indulge in some good, hearty
lung exercise and at the same time TO
get some mental recreation by watching
nine athletes eavort about the field.
There was no war to distract their at
tention or to detract from the attend
ance. There was daylight saved a-plen-
ty which could have been devoted to the
good old sport. There was plenty OF
coin waiting to be spent in support Of a
team providing someone had gone after
it right There we're several fields
which could have been secured for little
or nothing
Yet in spite Of all these incentives to
having representative team, nothing
was done; and now the season is fast
drawing to an end Another season Of
such fine possibilities for the game should
not be allowed to slip by without Barre
having baseball team. We would moi
need to have such a crackerjack aggre
cation as we had in the old Northern
league days; but we could get along with
team built up Of local amateurs Of
ability with perhaps a few men imported
for the big" games. Providing, Of
course, our opponents did not get to buy
ing the baseball ability of men of known
skill in the outer world. We have hat
an example of what can be done in the
case of the Graniteville team and The
Moretown team, both OF which have been
playing first-c class ball, as good as the
minor leagues afford and which have
furnished excellent amusement for large
crowds. We need not be too ambitious
Get team of the calibre of the Granite
vile or the Moretown team another year
and have live baseball town There Is
almost everything to be said in favor Of
such plan and little to say against it

Nearly a year after the armistice in
the great war was signed the French
government has given recognition to
Major General Clarence R. Edwards, for
merly commander of the 26th division,
by bestowing upon him the croix de
guerre, with palms, for distinguished
service in aiding France to shake off the
yoke of the German oppressor. In con
sideration of the fact that the croix de
guerre, with palms, has been conferred
on Americans who, without a doubt,
gave far less service than did Major Gen
eral Edwards and who occupied posi-,
tions far lower than that of the former
leader of the Goth, it appears to be some.
what tardy recognition and perhaps calls
for some explanation, at least from the
commander of the American expedition.

much prospect of support of the Rhine
land republic, The formation Of re-
public in western Germany might mean
a desire to throw off the burden of finan-
cial responsibility for damage done by
Germany during the war, and hence no
action toward recognition of such a gov
eminent will be taken at the present

FAMILY HOTEL" CAUGHT ON
RidieuIed When First Established In
London, Idea Has Met With
Enormous Success.

The first family" or Temperance"
hotel in London, the forerunner Of
tens Of thousands of such hostelries In
all parts of the world, was opened in
COvent Garden about 145 years ago.
An inn for the more or less permanent
accommodation Of families, and minus
bar, was an undreamed-Of thing, and
other hOtel-keepers laughed the prof.
ect Ito scorn. Despite their derision,
the scheme was successful, and made
a snug fortune for its founder, David
Low. London now has hundreds of
family and temperance hotels, and the
United States has thousands of them.
The edifice in which Low started
his hotel is still standing. The build
ing was erected early in the seven
teenth century, and was originally the
home of Sir Kenelm Digby. Crom-
wells council held sessions in the
building, it is said. and it was the
scene of many other noteworthy gath
erinGs before it was converted into q
host elry.

After Saladin and his house had passed
away AleppO fell to the Mameluke sui

the terrible Timur (Tamerlane) on his
way to overthrow the army of Egypt
at Damascus.
Timur left terrible traces Of his pres

it's splendid situation, recovered, and

was at the height of its prosperity.
It was injured by the discovery of the
passage round the Cape of Good Hope.

the trading cities of the world, and Its
renown spread far and wide.

Omitted Press Service.)

NEW YORK, Feb. 4.-The New
York World published today copy
righted interview with the Bolshe-
vik premier of Russia-Lenine,
which was cabled from London.
The Russian leader declares that the
Russian Soviets government wants
peace and is willing to make conces-
sions to get it. But if the Allies in
sist upon war the Soviets will fight
to finish. Mr.. Lenine said the So
viets are not over inclined to pay the
old Russian debts.
Asked about Russia's eligibility to
the League of Nations, Lenine re-
piled that "they are not forming a
league of nations, but league Of
imperatists debating to strange ma
tiohs-to other nations outside of
the league" He said Wilson is a
shrewd man.
When asked how long before the
Bolshevik revolution will reach the
United States Lenine replied that he
wonders how long Gompers can hold
the American Federation of Labor as
subservient to imperialism as he is
personally.
The Lenine interview, given Robert
Minot, an American newspaper man,

A FIRM. PROTEST
AGAINST ABUSE
OF LEADING men
BY ADVENTURES

All that was possible to present
under limitations of time and place
with regard to the unwarranted as
sault upon the Board of Supervisors
was done in THE OASIS yesterday
morning; and it was necessary to let
pass unnoticed the dirty personal
filings from the petticoat Stacker
against Chairman James A. Harrl-
son of the CcSnty Board.
This article is written to treat that
phase of-the case.
To give vent to the venom of this
Stacker the columns of the evening
paper were used to heap most unwaf-
ranted abuse upon the head of one of
the pioneers of Santa Cruz county, a
MAI who hes liv1l .Ecro from boy
lool, has aided in building, up Tie
Town of Noyelcs and tie c0unty Of
San.a Cruz, has represented the peo-.
pie l.. their town government, their
county government, their state gov
ernment, has acquired competence,
and is heavy taxpayer.
Now, who is this Stacker? Who is
this H. R. Sisk, a shameful part Of
whose unsavory record THE OASIS
has taken occasion to ventilate here
tofore? Where did he come from ?
What did he bring to Nogales and
Santa Cruz county to contribute to
the common welfare? He came here
some four or five years ago, upon his
uppers, practically. THE OASIS has
been creditably informed that short
ly after his arrival at Nogales there
came consigned to him = by ex
press suit case, c. o. D., for a
board bill, that he had left behind
elsewhere; and the suit case, with the
bill sent here for Sisk to iquidate
the latter. The same informant
stated to THE OASIS that Sisk let
that suitcase go back to that poor
woman whom he owed for the food
that had sustained him; and that the
bill was returned to her unpaid.
Perhaps he has squared the matter
since then. But that is no part of
this screed.
Here is the real issue: Has it
been fair, has it been right, has it
been decent that this unprincipled
adventurer should have been pitched
headlong into newspaper office
where he can abuse reputable men,
builders of the commonwealth, sup
porters of the town, representatives
of the best interests of the county?
