l'ederalist challenge during Wash lngtons second administration which WIS finally circumvented by the ama'gamatIon Of the proletariat, artisans and farmers into powerful opposition 10 the Federaist coalition Of bankers and planters, The Times therefore in concluding 1t takes hard times to whet tho political Erinistonc, backed up the doctrine Of Frank R. Kent Of tho Baltimore Sun, who has an arrcsting article in Iarpor's regarding the political de. ll.ne in America"
 Quoting inc Times.
 Mr kcn's hopes for now DO
 ,I'iral awarcness will be rc-
 warlcd when the economic
 shoe begins to pinch. poliri-
 cal interest declines in times of
 prosperity. With the saGging of
 the inlcN numbers. lines of m

 reductions Of wages 1t will only

 put politics very much in the
 running again, II is to be hoped
 'hab when the inevitable swing
 occurs We shall be provided
 with leader of revolt ten per
 cent as great as Thomas Jefter-
 son.
 This is not exactly new Demo- cratic doctrine, Several luminaries in the party have enunciated it recent Iy Yet the prospect Of political sue cess based upon hard times used 10 be an exclusively Republican pat tern. Who has not heard it said that q duplication of the panic during the, second Cleveland administration could only be avoided by electing the Republicans? Now, apparently, the Democrats have concluded that the only chance of ever winning the presidency again rests in a dash Of hard times during a Republican ad- ministration,
 Perhaps both sides are right. The people have been brought up in the belief that the national administra- ton should be credited with good times or blamed if there are hard times. If there are no hard times under Republican rule the Demo- crats will continue 10 have a small chance Of elccting a president. IL may be unfortunate that national politics in this country is so firm iy imbedded upon the bread and but ter issue, but so long as this is the case the Republicans so far have the upper hand and Lady Luck smiles.
 If people are to take an active interest in politics only when it means q return to good times-like condemned men taking an interest in religion just before the moose spirits them oft cannot be taken as otherwise than q commentary up- on the hold Of politics on the public conscience. Under such circum- stances there can be oil scandals and any other kind of scandals, but so long as species of prosperity flows through the land the people will care little about scandals-at least, they make no dent in the party getting credit for the prosperity.
 The people nowadays are rearing for q good time, + the average man can get hold of cheap automobile he soon finds he has no time for the study of politics.
 And for that matter, other things besides politics show d tendency to Iangui3h.

When Governor Pinchot OF Penn
Sylvania throws out the first ball to-
day at Pittsburgh in the opening
game of the World Series between
the Pittsburgh Pirates and the
Washington Senators, fans in Au-
gusta as well as in all other towns
and cities of the United States will

dope upon the progress of this great
contest. And to enable the Augusta
fans to keep posted and to get ev-
cry bit OF pleasure possible out of

more interesting than heretofore.
The, board will be placed upon the
front of the Journal building, facing
the square in front of the railroad

Unleashing a savage offensive that
netted six points in the first four
minutes of play, Cony decisiVcly
trimmed Skowhegan by a score OF
$50 at Williams Field Tuesday af-
ternoon. Babe Lapidus, Capt. Nc
Auley. and Stiles got away time af-
ter time for substantial gains
through the line. The visitors,
hampered with a green line, were
unable to stop the rushes of the Red
and White and Cony was not forced
to vary from straight football to cop
the % points and the game.
Cony kicked off to Skowhegan at
3.15 and Lemieux received the kick,
but was downed on the 26 yard line
after very little chance to run back
with the ball. Three line plunges
which netted less than five yards
and an attempt to slide Cronkhite off
tackle gave the ball to Cony on the
Skowhegan 30 yard line.
McAuley ripped off 8 yards on the
first play through off tackle and
Lapidus made it first down with an
otnef VICIOUS plunge through the
center of the line. Stiles, Lapidus
and McAuley made another first
down with the same tactics. The
ball was within 5 yards of the
Skowhegan goal and Stiles smashed
through right guard for the first
tally of the game. Lapidus missed
the try after touchdown.
LemieuX received Dinsmore's Sec
ond kick on his 50 yard line. and
was nailed with little gain. Lemieux,
Lewia and Halle found the Cony
line to be stonewall defense and
Cronkhite punted long drive down
the field, the ball going to Cony on
her own %. McAuley made dash
of 13 yards around the end and
Lapidus followed with a seven yard
smash off tackle, thereby starting a
steady march down the field which
resulted in second touchdown, Nc

For the second time in succession
the Calumet Club has annexed the
championship of the Augusta Twi-
light League and all the honors that
go with such feat. The team made
a strong finish in the final round of
the league schedule after dropping
the first half to the American Le-
gion and triumphed over the ex-sol-
diers in two straight games after
the regular schedule.
The team also played several out
side games, winning series from
Hallowell, defeating Gardiner and
losing to Skowhegan. The team was
ably managed by Leo Beaudoin and
captained by Jerome Goodchild, both
seasoned baseball stars in this Sec
ton.
The bulk of the twirling fell on
Cote. who pitched the club to a PEN
nant last year but at the last of the
season Giroux was taking his turn
in the box with uniform success. Gil
roux played in the short field when
not on the mound.
Capt. Goodchild, a seasoned back
stop, caught the slants Of these two
twirlers in faultless fashion and his
judgment In handling the pitchers,
helped the latter to pull out of sew
eral holes. Beaudoin on first, La
nberte on the pivot sack, Giroux and
Cote alternating at short and Roy on
the hot corner formed an infleld
that was perhaps the most reliable
n the league. The team as a whole
gave faultless support to the men in
the box and had the hitting power to
step out and get the runs when
needed.
In the outfeld o. Cote. Pelletier.
Overlook and Douin did the bulk of
the work. This quartet formed
combination which did not confine its
activities to fast fielding or heavy
called q happy medium. These play
ers are all well known In local base
ball circles and Of this number Dou-
in wore a Calumet uniform last sea-
son when he was rated as one Of
the heaviest hitters in the league.
Lacasse, Paquette and LaFlamme
were utility men. who gave the club
a reserve force that was hard to
equal as Lacasse was a regular on
last years championship team. Gene
Roy rendered invaluable assistance
in his capacity as assistant coach of
the team.
A SUMMARY of the seasons work

Security Group
Discuss Rhine
Pact of Guarantees

Locarno. Switzerland, Oct. 6-(AP)
Germany and the allies today took
up for discussion in the second sess-
ion of the security conference the
thorny points of the Rhine Pact of
guarantees. Gustav Stresemann, the
German foreign minister, was pres
ent, looking pallid after his stroke of
illness.
The more difficult questions include
the problem of satisfying France and
her allies, Poland and Czecho- Slo-
yakia on the matter Of French mill
itary support to those countries in
the event of aggression against them.
The covenant of the league of ma
tons already covers the possibility
of troops, for punitive purposes,
crossing German territory, as 1t does
the soil of any other signatory. But
France wants to make special guar
antee, which will supplement and
reaffirm the general protection now
aorded by the covenant.
The conversations turned on
whether such a guarantee could best
be attached to the Rhine pact or
made a feature of the arbitration
treaties between Germany and Po-
land and Czecho- Slovakia
Both DR.. Stresemann and M. Bril-
and emerged from the conference
expressing contentment over the
days work.
No settlement has been reached on
the problem of how or whether,
France can guarantee that Poland
and Czecho- Slovakia shall not be-
come victims of aggressive wars.
That Soviet Russia is keeping an
eye on the Locarno discussions is
shown by the arrival at Strersa, not
far from Locarno, of NJ. Kergenzieff.
counsellor of the Soviet embassy at
Rome. 1t is alleged that from this
frontier city he is maintaining close
communication with agents at Locar-
no.
1t is understood that the security
pact as far as at present arranged
provides for operation only after
Germany enters the league of ma
tions.

Ticket Scalpers Have

Action i'm Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh Oct 6.--(AP)--It ap-
pears as though world series ticket
scalpers would work unmolested in
pittsburgh. City Solicitor I. M. Ben
ner has been unable to find state law
against it, and city ordinance only
makes it unlawful to raise the price
of tickets and sell them on the streets.
The sealpers. two of whom have al
ready opened Offices here, are expected
to get around the city law in this way
and thus ply their trade without police
interference. Prices are said to range
from $40 to s25 per seat.
Spurious tickets are said to have
been found in some sections of the
city.

See Chance to Break
Hard Coal MOnOpOly

New York. Oct. .6-(AP)-Frederic
Fl. Newell, advisor to Governor Pin
chot of Pennsylvania and former
chief of the United States reclamation
of service today predicted the present
anthracite coal strike may give the
bituminous coal operators a chance
to break the hard coal monopoly in
the New England states.
There is no virtue in anthracite
coal that cannot be duplicated in the
substitutes being prepared" he said.
The New England consumers believe
they must have anthracite at all
costs. This attitude does not help
the situation. Several governors in
the New England states have become
interested in bituminous possibilities
and are cooperating with Mr.. Pinchot
IN Investigating anthracite substitu-
tes".
