WHEN the chance came in 1914 to
W arm body of working class vol
unteers Connolly was glad to seize it,
He of all men had "no Illusions about
freedom" about the power and
"reminiscences Of the British empire
He seized the chance, first, because
before him, too plain to be missed,
was the chance to put the Dublin
workers on something of an equality
with the police guards Of the strike
smashing Murphys. Secondly, because
he saw Gas no man else in Ireland)
that only the working masses could be
trusted to put up fight even for 80
limited thing as a democratic Irish
republic the strength of the
volunteers was in the workers.
And there was yet another motive
soon to become actively operative.
WHEN the war came. it is not too
w much to say that to one Of the
"old guard" of Marxism. in the Eng

it seemed as though the end of every
hope had come. Only slowly did such
as he recover from the horror that
came with the realization that the
world army Of social democracy had
melted overnight, leaving behind
nothing but leaders" serving their
kings and kaisers, and the masses
disorganized into mobs drifting every
whittier 'as. sheep having no shep-
herd"

AS the horror Of shame and disgust
was replaced by the horrors Of war,
so there grew, even with the sound
of the guns and the tales of the
slaughter, the sense that the masses
were regathering blindly;
that there was a chance that the right

IRON the first daysof the war, when
= he had decorated. his headquart-
ers with the legend-al1 across the
front Of the building serve

Connolly had grown fiercer and more
impatient.
He pressed ever closer his relations
with the more ardent among the re-
publican volunteers. He won his way
by the sheer compulsion Of his com
mand Of the technique Of the bust
ness, until he stood high in the inner
councils Of those ready to risk all
upon the chance that "England's diff
fculty was Ireland's opportunity"
TT it known now that it was he, more
4 than any other, who had urged on
the rising; that when at the eleventh
hour MacNeil cancelled the order for
mobilization, which was the agreed
signal for the volunteers Of all
Ireland, it was he who insisted, back
ed by Pearse, in going forward what
ever betide.
1t is told how he said as he marched
out-without emotion OF display, in
his natural matter-of-fact tone, talk
ing to an intimate-that he knew
he was going to his death.
Is there any expIanation-to those
who knew him-other than this: that
his whole being was filled with the
desire to strike such a blow as might
even by change rouse the revolu-
tionary explosion which would lay
capitalism, it's wars, subjections and
explorations, conquered beneath the
feet Of the workers Of the worldf
A ND how far was he wrong?

he could take and hold Dublin for
long enough for all Ireland to rise,
With half that number he held it for

fallen before the firing squad the
Russian masses stirred, Gzardom crash

ton had begun.

with the working mass, and he
scorned to live safely while they
were passing thru the torments OF
hell. He took his chance, knowing
Il was chance. He fought for Ire
land. But he lived. fought and died
that the workers Of the world might

land a regular birth on the Legion
team next season. Hanson did his
best work of the season during this
game. "Don's" passing and shooting
was hard to beat. He had little
hard luck in connecting with the
loop, but most of his attempts were
shot high enough so that they were
easy follow in shots for the other
forward.
Much could be said about the play
ing of the Two Harbors team. They
know basket ball better than our
fellows do, but they were not in
condition. 1t was necessary for them
to take time out on several occas-
ions in order to rest up, and at GER
tain stages of the game their playing
was slow and ragged. Most of their
shots were long ones, and usually
nibbled at the hoop. They were a
clean bunch of players, but one OF
the toughest teams that played here
this season. They were not alone in
their rough playing, for the local
quint also used physical force, many
times, in order to work the bal
down for a shot. The two Harbors
team was satisfied with the game, anc
left on Wednesday to play the AL
Star team of St. Cloud.
Glen Otis refereed the game, anc
his work was commendable. The LIE
gion officials are very grateful tt
him for his services this season.

Last Game a Thriller
The Sauk Centre Legion basketeer
finished their 1925 season in a glor
ious fashion by defeating the heav.
Two Harbors quint, 20 to 16. This wa
the last game for the locals this yea
and they gave everything they ha
in order to make it a real finish. I
was necessary to play an extra pei
iod of five minutes in order to deter
mine the winner, for the score stoo
tie 16 to 16, at the end of the reg
ular session.
5 Sauk Centre presented the mos
rigid defense that they have run thi
year. The visitors had to resort t
long shots for their scores and foun
considerable difficulty in locating tn
|. basket. But these shots were hui
| ried by the close guarding of Dolso
), and Dewey O'Gara. Dewey smoti
r cred the invaders every time the
e crossed the center line, and he il
, variably was able to get the ba
: away and to one of his own team
mates. Dolson played a wonderf1
: game, especially during the last qua
C ter and extra period. Time an
f again he dribbled through their frol
: line defense and either shot or passe
e to Hanson or Gales. Most of tt
s shots Sauk Centre tried were the r
suit of Dolson's offense. He was a
ly assisted in this by the fast fo'
work of Frank O'Gara. Franks shoe
ing eye wasn't in working order, Fl
= he missed many shots, especial
from the center territory. His be

LOCAL SPORT FIELD
Clenwood Trims Sauk Centre

Glenwood Trims Sank Centre
The biggest surprise of the basket
ball season was handed the Sank Cen
tire High School basket all team at
Glenwood last Friday. The Sauk
Centre team went over there expect
ing to have an easy time of it, but
was surprised with the improvement
shown by their opponents. Glenwood
lead all the way, and only during the
last four minutes did the local play
ers show any real form. During
those four minutes Coach Kaslow's
men made 12 points to Glenwood's 8.
The final score was 22 to 20, and it
marked the third defeat this season
for Sauk Centre, as compared to 6
wins. This is record the fans of
this city are pleased with. Fridays
game will end the season for the
High School.
Legion Loses to Bottineaus
One of the best basket ball games
ever played on the Junior High Aud
itorium floor took place last Friday
The Bottoneau team of Minneapolis
gave us an excellent exhibition of
basket ball. Even though our boys
lost, 1S to 16, we were very much
pleased with the playing of our team.
The Bottineaus are a team made
up of former college and high school
stars of the Twin Cities. Last year
they won the Minneapolis Industrial
League championship and last Satur-
day played the Mercury team of Min
neapolis for the same title. They are
all clever players, particularly in
dribbling. Besnah right forward, is
the best basket ball player that has
played here in recent years, and his
clever dribbling and long shots gave
the local fans many thrills. His team
mates were equally good on long
shots, and every one of them is a
clean player.
If the Sauk Centre players had
made one-third the number of shots
they tried to loop, the game would
have been theirs buy large margin.
For some reason or another the ball
would not go into the loop, and we
had to be satisfied with the short end
of 16 to 18 score.
Hanson and Frank O'Gara were
very exective on offense, while Gales
and Dewey O'Gara were the strong
defense men. Dolson played up to
form and fed the ball to the two for
wards which usually resulted in a
closeup shot. Olson and Caughren
were put in during the third quarter
and helped materially in working the
points Of advantage. Marx went in
to the game to relieve Dewey O'Gara
and the change helped to speed up the
Sauk Centre offense. This lineup
was used until the end of the game.
1t was very good game and every
spectator was pleased with the play
ing of both teams. A game lost to a
team like the Bottineaus is no dis
grace, and anytime they are on a
tour through here a return engage
ment will be arranged.
The following are the prize win
ners in the cross word puzzle contest:
First prize-One dozen cans fruit

Eighth prize-Pair lady's silk hose,

Mary E. Hansen.
Ninth prize-One gallon Polarine
motor oil, given by Standard Oil Com
pany-Fay S. Cooper.
The volley ball game played as a
curtain raiser for the Two Harbors
and Legion game was fine contest.
Archie Hines team won, and demon
strated some real volley ball service.
More of these games will be staged.

ONO POWER co. ORDIEs Noes
PASS WITHOUT MAYORS @. X.

| Tt will be recalled that at the
meeting of the city council Sept. @.
ordinances were passed unanimously
by the council granting to the Ohio
Power CO. a Sc year franqllise; also
ian ordinance to advertise for street
lighting contract, and ten year
rate ordinance. After council had
adjourned, the mayor refused to
Isign the ordinances, but he did not
veto them within ten days. and az
/ ter ten days they take effect. The
next step jig TO publish the ordi-
Inancoss- and If no referendum is
called they become operative within
Ia certain period. Nothing further
in the way OF holding up the negotia-
ltions is anticipated. and since the
Ohio Power Co has an option for
the purchase of the local plant, It
will in all probability proceed to
close the deal for that plant. and to
| ley ont right of way ard secure
1.-THE same for their line, from Corn
ling, where they will connect the
ohio Power Co. line for the two
towns.
Mr. s. Fl. Beadle who represents
/ the Ohio Power Co.. was down Tues
| day looking after matters, and made
the statement that If the Ohio Power
Co. saw nothing more here than the
taking over of the business of the
present plant, they would not come
at all, but they have the prospects OF
new business. We get the under
standing that while the Ohio Power
Co. does not branch out into other
lines of business, confning them
selves to the manufacturing and sale
of electricity, they do work and give
their influence and assistance TO get
new concerns to locate in places
where the Ohio Power Co. can serve
them with power
This paper still feels that it will
be fine thing for the towns and
community to have such reliable
concern to furnish us power, as is
the Ohio Power Co. The fact that
Ithey furnish power in a place is a
big factor reckoned with by concerns
looking for location

Nominating Petitions Thrown out

Several changes have been made
in the list of candidates filed with
the election board, and different
from those first published. The
name of Vine Cordray for county
board of education was thrown out,
because the election board found
that it was irregular, inasmuch it is
stated as the petition was started in
another's name, and that party later
refusing to permit his name to be
filed, the name was changed and
that of Cordray put on instead
The name of W. l.. Cannon for
Manchester township board of edu
cation was thrown out because the
petition contained but % signatures
Frank F. CouIson's name, in some
manner was omitted from our
