The ends may hesitate and possibly
not cross the scrimmage line if they
feel quite sure that short pass or
a kick is to be the next play used by
the offense. In the case of the short
pass. their function is to take an Of
fensive half out of the play or to
break up the pass after it is thrown.
In the case of a kick, the defensive
ends become offensive as soon as the
ball has been received by one Of their
backfleld men and they retreat
slightly, forming an interference, and
then go up the field.

+. E. Swartz Strong
Candidate for Council

F. e. Swartz, whose friends are
limited only by the size and popula-
ton OF this district and as far be-
yond as he Is known, has entered the
contest for councilman from the Sec
ond ward OF Ely and In this issue OF
the White Pine News makes a formal
announcement. During his several
years of residence here Mr.. Swartz
has maintained a policy OF fair end
honorable treatment for all and his
demeanor has been such as to gather
under his wing only loyal friends,
with no enemies on the outside. He
has taken a constant interest in the
public welfare, which he looks at
through the eyes OF a business man
rather than those of a politician, for
he Is not schooled in the arts of the
latter. His friendships are real, not
studied or put on.
The race in this ward appears
likely to be the closest in the city.
which fact is brought about c%onspic-
uously by his entry therein.

exist in any legislature where universal suffrage prevails, is to enable the
citizen to properly place responsibility either for the success or the failur
of legislation.
In every legislature composed Of two branches, the finishing touches
and the only thing that emerges from the conference is the final agree
ment The individual legislator must then vote upon a conference report
without any opportunity of expressing, by his vote, his opposition to
anything that the bill in this form contains. The citizen is deprived en-
tirely of an opportunity to pass a just and fair judgment upon the result
A one-branch legislature would obyiate all these difficulties. The citizen
would be able to absolutely and without difficulty place responsibility
where it properly belonged for every act of the legislature.
One Of the evils Of our legislatures is that they are entirely too large
Having in mind a state about like Nebraska I should say that the men,
bership should not exceed twenty or thirty. sRsmea4.
The members of the legislature should be elected by districts upon
a non-parhsan ballot. The business of the legislature of a state S in no
sense partisan. If politics were eliminated, members would be elected
according to their qualifications for the state legislature. The state would
be similar to a gigantic corporation, and the members of the Legislature
would be members of the board Of directors.
A state having that kind Of legislature l have outlined would be
able to increase the salaries of its members.
If we had the kind of legislature I have outlined, the members would
stand Is high as the members of our judiciary. They would become as
expert in their line S the judges are expert in the construction of laws.
Perfection, it is true, would not be attained, but the morale and the
standing of our state legislatures would be on the same high plane as
our judiciary.

If We Show the Farmer the Helping Hand We
Will Also Help Ourselves
By GEORGE M. REYNOLDS, Chicago Banker.

The last two years the farmers have been doing more of their own
work than they did for some four or five years previously The wives snd
the daughters are making butter and they are raising chickens, and I am
glad to say that the whole situation with them is improving and perhaps
as rapidly as could be expected in view of the great slump which over
took them in that line of business.
When you realize that they represent a 40 per cent buying power
in the country you can understand why perhaps some of you have rot
had greater orders from that section of the country.
I am a farmer myself. 1 was born and raised on the farm, and I
want to tell you the farmer is right. He is digging in and he will dig
out. But in the meantime business and business men can do a great
deal to help him by encouraging him and by showing him that the rest
Of the country and the rest Of industry appreciate the trouble with which
he has to contend, and if we show the helping hand where i. is possible
we viii help ourselves 1 think quite IS quickly al " will help the farmer
himself.

War System and the Gospel of Jesus Christ
Dramatically Opposed
WORLD ALLIANCE FOR INTERNATIONAL FRIENDSHIP.

The church of Christ was severely blamed for the occurrence of the
last war. That the gospel should have been 81 long on earth and vel
should not have prevented the great catastrophe with all its hdeous crue1t,
and suffering was a charge against the church so serious that all thought
full ministers felt its force and were driven defenayey to meet it. Even
more will another war bring down upon the church of Christ the charge Of
moral cowardice. and fatal ineficency.
We therefore urge all the people of the churches, and all ministers in
particular, to an outspoken declaration that the war system and the
gospel of Jesus Christ are Numerically and irreconclably opposed. w
urge that without delay this crisis of decision between war and Christ
be Enthusiastically recognized and stated.
We would have every Christian church the center of a frank and
courageous antagonism to war and everything that makes war, until in
our own country and in all lands we succeed in reinsahng Christian
loyalty to Christ where it belongs-far above all local prejudice, racial
hatred and diysive nahonalism.

Two-Branch Legislatures in the States Have
Been Very Unsatisfactory.
BY SENATOR G. W. NORRIS, in New York Times.

When our forefathers adopted the Constitution
of the United States they provided that the legis-
latiye function of government should be composed
OF a house of representatives and a senate. The
federal government in this respect was accepted as a
model and was followed by all of the states of the
Union. The experience of more than one hundred
years has demonstrated that the two-branch legis-
lature, at least, so far as the various states are con-
cerned, has been very unsatisfactory in its results.
One of the fundamental rennisites that should alvavs

HOWARD NINE TO' PLAY MARION TWO GAMES THIS WEEK
Wednesdays Game At Berry Field To Begin At
 3 O'clock

Coach Cope's Howard College Bull dogs returned from Jacksonville last night, after winning two straight games from the State Normal outfit. The Bulldogs won both games easily and are confident of showing to ad- vantage in their series with the Ma rion Cadets, which begins Wednesday afternoon.
 The Cadets will play the Bulldogs two games, Wedn esday and Thurs day, after having lost one to the Pan thers on Monday. The Cadets were luckless set against the Panthers and were overwhelmingly beaten. Whether Coach Cope's men can du- plicate that onesided score or not remains to be seen.
 Panthers and Bulldogs begin their 1923 series on April 30. and fandom is watching the progress of the two teams closely these days.
 Ham Stevens, himself former member of the Marion baseball out against the Cadets. Stubhs and Rains did the twirling at Jacksonville, and Stevens is in excellent shape to pitch now.
 The games with Marion will be played on Berry field. The game Wednesday, afternoon will begin at 5 o'clock. The Howard field is in great shape these days after the eX- tensive improvements made this spring. The infield is fast and firm while the outfield is as green as :, billiard table.
 Coach Cope will probably use his regular lineup against the Cadets, as follows: Griggs, first base; Daw

BIG PREP SERIES HERE THIS WEEK

One of the most decisive series of baseball games that will be played this season in state prep school cir cles will be played on Munger field at Birmingham Southern college Fri day and Saturday of this week Sid ney Ianier of Montgomery will meet simpson High in a three game series on the above named days and it is figured by prep school followers that the series will go a large way in de- termining the state champions for the coming year.
 Both Sidney Lanier and Simpson have met the Tuscaloosa High Bears on Rotary field in Tuscaloosa and have been defeated by the Bruins. However, both teams have a. return chance at Tuscaloosa on their home grounds. These three teams were tied up last year for the state cham pionship with Simpson having a slight edge for the title.
 Since Sidney Lanier's defeat at Tus- caloosa they have been strengthened considerably by the addition of o Brien, Parks and Jernigan. They will come to the Magic City with their strongest array of players to contest the Purple Tornado in the coming series. Sidney Lanier has defeated the Marion Institute nine among other teams this season.

GO. HEADS NICE CARD. ORFRIDAY NIGHT

Jimmy Proto, popular local young bantam, will get into action again Friday night at the Birmingham O'Dowd of Atlanta in a ten-round go. At the last scrap, Monday night, at the club it was announced that Proto would meet the winner of the Tim O'Dowd-Joe Cook bout. Subsequently Tim won the right to meet Proto by clever piece of fighting against Cook, although he had to weather a storm of punishment in order to come through at the last with the referees decision.
 Jimmy Proto probably fought his greatest scrap here against Cook some weeks ago, at which time he won decision over him. Proto Is the sort of scrapper that the fans hail with delight, for he Is hard fighter and is game clean through. His fight against Cook was an exh1- bition of sheer gameness, for the New Orleans boxer had him in a bad shape during the middle of the bout and cut him up about the eyes pretty badly.
 The bout Friday night will be one with plenty of fighting. for Proto is scrapper that believes in giving the fans what they are looking for and fighting the full ten rounds.
 In addition to the main bout one of the best preliminary cards of the year will be put on. Fans will hail With delight the return of the battle royal to the local arena. Many fans have asked for the battle royals re- turn and the B. A. c. officials have needed the call and will stage battle royal between Darktown box CTS. Six selected dusky battlers tip- ping the scales at 1S0 pounds win battle for honors in the feature card of the preliminaries.
 Big Boy Edwards will meet Don Northington in the semi-final boxing bout, which will go six rounds. Bat ting Spark Plug will get back into the ring again after couple weeks of idleness following his knockout by Speedy Newman. He will meet Kid Nasty of Vivian in a four round bout. Young Battling Kelly will meet Kid Humbolt in four round bout. Tom Lacy will meet Al Clurey of Fairfield in a ten-round wrestling bout.

PANTHER OUTFIT TO MEET CLEMSON HERE WEDNESDAY
Game With Marion Cadets Is Rained
 Out

The Birmingham m- Southern College Panthers were rained out Tuesday in their second game with Marion. The Cadets move over to Howard Wednesday for two-game series, while the Partners take on Clemson College for game on Munger Bowl Wednesday afternoon at o'clock
 The Clemson team arrived in the city Tuesday afternoon and is put ting up at local hotel. Little is known locally of their prowess, but they are usually represented by a strong team on the diamond. This is the first time that Clemson has appeared on Birmingham-Sout schedule and the relative strength of the two teams cannot be estimated.
 Coach Brown announced Tuesday night that either Babe" Graham or Joe Wheeler would start in the box for the Panthers. The same lineup, Caldwell. first; Griffin, second; Nor ton. center field; Williams, left field i; Englebort. third base. and Mitchell right field, that started against Ma rion Monday, would start against Clemson. This is the lineup that knocked out 24 safeties off the de- livery of Whelchel, the Marion twirler and beat the Cadets 92 to 2 Monday afternoon. The team played good ball in this game and presented a type of offensive play that was an eye-opening spectacle to local fans. Their defensive play was smooth and efficient.
 The game with Clemson Wednes- day afternoon will close the Pan thers' activities until next Friday and Saturday, April 27 and 2S, when the Union University nine of Jack son. Tenn. will meet the Methodist team on Munger Bowl
 The Clemson team will only re- main in the city "Wednesday and Wednesday night and will leave Thursday morning for Tuscaloosa, where they play a series with the strong University of Alabama nine.
