Pat. Off"

Iris Speaker is building for the
future, writes Henry Edwards, well
known scribe with the team at Dallas,
Texas. Barring accidents, Cleveland
will be in the running for the pennant
for several years. Most wise baseball
managers have one eye open for the
future, and Speaker has both lamps
peeled.
The real veterans of the Indians
are Speaker. Larry Gardner, Doc
Johnson, Jack Graney, Joe Wood,
Steve O,Neil, Leslie Nunamaker, Chef
Thomas, Ray Caldwell, Jim Bagby and
Stanley Coveleskie, and yet few will
say these players are slipping. Slip
they must. sooner or later, but it is
not expected all will start to go back
at the same time. Take Jim Bagby
and Stanley Coveleskie. They won SIS
games last season, while Caldwell won
20 more. Nothing about such a rec
ord to indicate much of a slip for a
year or SO.
Steve O'Neill had the best record
of his life last year, while Larry Gard
ner never showed to better advantage.
We all know how wonderfully Speaker
performed. We also know what
strength Doc Johnson was to the
team and how capably Graney arose
to the occasion when given the OPP
portunity. The others did not have
much chance to show, but they were
ready when called on.
George Burns. Bill Wambsganss,
Charlie Jameson, Joe Evans, Elmer
Smith, George Uhle, Walter Mails,
Guy Morton and Bob Clark. still are
young, while Joe Sewell is but boy.
So much for the men who won
Clevelands first pennant. Most of the
new men acquired are pitchers, and 1t
is surprising to think that Speaker
has been able to pick up so many
pitchers who appear destined to make
their mark in the big show. To take
Speakers own words, his greatest
trouble is to weed out his pitching
staff
He remarked a day or so ago that
no club ever had so many promising
left-handers. In addition to Mails,
who has won his major league spurs,
iris has four others whom he is will

American league. Two of them, Pott
and Middleton, may be only diamonds
in the rough, but they have the STUFF.
to fool the best batters in the country
if it is found they have the necessary
| control and that is something time
alone will tell, as Speaker has moi
been able to put them to the test. Al
any rate, Speaker is extolling the aDil
| tiles of his five left-handers, Mails
Petty, Odenwald, Pott and Middleton
as he never did a quintet of pitchers
before. There was no such praise ir
regard to left handlers of a year ago
Iris has not said much about jim
Lindsay, right-hand recruit, but the
other Indians have, while Spoke Is

to land job hurting the disc. Wild

although little has been done on this

Cost Of Education in Wisconsin.

In bulletin issued by the tax com
mission there are presented for the
first time exact figures and data
showing the cost of education in the
cities of Wisconsin. A review of the
local tax rates shows that anywhere
from One-quarter to more than one
half of the taxes collected in cities
goes to education of children. Mad
isons .0225 tax rate gives more than
one-quarter for school purposes. On
a total assessed value of all property
of $S1, 118, 351, Madison taxed itself to
the sum of $645,385 for schools in
1920. OF this sum, $31, 074, according
to the tax commissions figures, went
to county school tax and $614,311 was
raised for local schools. An interest
ing comparison of the tax rates for
schools in cities can be compiled by
using the legal tax rate limit of .Q35O
as basis for deduction. This limit
Of $3.50 has been exceeded by at least
35 cities in the state. There is pend
ing legislation in the legislature now
which, by making some of the debts
of these cities retroactive, would legal
ize their excesses. But using the legal
limit as the basis, there are found the
following facts: Alma has school
tax rate of OPS; Altoona, 0254 Au-
gusta, .O273; Bayfield,, .O165; Berlin,
.O159; Black River Falls, O196;
Chetek, .0155; Chippewa Falls. O136;
Colhv )15e. Crandon. .O194: Dodge
Vile, .01O5; Eau Claire, OPP; Fenni-
more, .O182; Fond du Lac, O133;
Hudson. .O258; Hurley, OILS; Keno
sha, .OaO9; Marinette, .0091; Marsh
field, .0113; Menasha, 0106; Menom-
onie, .0136: Milwaukee, .0123; SUI
perior, .O136. These are not all the
places that have high rates. The list
is long. The highest rate is found in
Alma with tax rate of O27S for it's
schools, the lowest for Delavan with
the school tax rate taking .0064 por-
ton of the taxes raised by the COM
munity. The total taxes raised for
local and county schools in Wisconsin
last year was S17,672,652, on an as.
sessed valuation Of $1,743, 2S3, S01.
TAX Boost May Be Checked.
There seems to be sentiment in
the legislature to get the appropriation
measures out of the way and to settle
the tax problem as soon as possible.
It is possible that with the pairing
down of appropriations it may not be
necessary to increase the taxes of the
state. That Governor Blaine is watch
ing the appropriations with a critical
eve is indicated by the fact that the
industrial commission appropriation
hill has been recalled, after it passed
both houses. and will be subjected to
further revision.
Funds Needed to Transport Fry.
That the conservation commission
has insufficient funds TO transport the
16O,OOOOO0 fish fry this spring is the
belief of Commissioner w. E. Barber.
"We will have some 100000 trout
fry. 150,0O0000 pike fry, and about
100000 bass fry and we only have
limited amount of funds to run the
commission to June 80. Last year it
cost the commission $4,000 to trans
port these fry" he said. A club cover
ing the whole of Langlade county has
offered to pay express charges for that
county.
