ON THE ROAD. Aug. 12.-Gover-
nor Hartley of Washington. an old
personal friend, declares the lumber
industry is in the worst condition he
has ever known in his quarter century
experience. Canada, in his opinion, is
sending in too much lumber. and he
believes tariff would help things ON
this side of the border. The governor
has been looping off unnecessary tax
caters. He has reduced the state force
of employees quite drastically and is
not yet through.
I'VE have too heavy taxes and too
much government holding back bust
ness here and all over the country.
he emphasized. There is far too much
reliance on the government and not
enough sclf-rcliancc. We should get
back to the sturdy American spirit Of
independence and sclf-rcliancc Of carli-
er days, when everybody didn't want
TO be wct-nursed."

Ty Cobb Says Jones Is
 Remarkable Pitcher

Detroit, Jan. 12--Ty Cobb says Sam Jones has more pitching poise than any other twirler in the Ameri- can league.
 By pitching poise, Cobb means baseball brains, rhythm of delivery and marked fielding ability.
 In addition to poise, Cobb grants that Jones has plenty of stuff, in cluding a change of pace that is un- equaled by any other pitcher in the majors.
 According to Cobb. Jones lacks only aggressiveness. If he was of the fighting type, that kept impress ing the hatsman with his great abil- i ity, he would be 25 per cent more ef' hcient, thinks Cobb.

Bets $1OO, Wins, and
 Shock Proves Fatal

Havana, Jan. 12-Antonio Suarez, newspaper reporter, yesterday placed a bet of s1oO on Countess Claridge in the first race at Oriental Park and dropped dead when the Ally won.
 Suarez stood on the terracs in front of the grandstand during the race. He followed every motion of the horses as they raced around the track. Countess Claridge took the lead early and maintained it to the stretch, when she tired and Pilades gave her a terrific struggle almost nosir : her out at the finish suarez was greatly excited and as the horses went under the wire he toppled over. When friends picked him up they found him dead.
