Mystery Marks
 Death of Grabs

as perplexing as the stories of sea monsters held its secret un- broken after a month of study of aquatic biologists, fishermen and federal and state officials in- to the wholesale slaughter of scores of thousands of crabs caught seasonally off Oregon's coast for the housewife's table.
 One morning some time ago, coastal residents aWoke to find the Clatsop beaches Uttered with thousands of dead female crabs. A few days later, in another loca ton not far away, residents dis covered countless male crabs, all dead, all washed up by the blue sWells of the Pacific.
 Angry fishermen, envisioning a ruinous loss of business, rushed to state officials for an investiga- ton, intimating that off-shore trawlers netting the fish might have destroyed thecrabs by drag ging the ocean bottom.
 After an exhaustive study, M T. Hoy, master fish warden of Oregon, exonerated any human cause, but admitted he could of- fer no other solution than that some oceanic disturbance" of which we know nothing" had kill ed the crabs. Of this he was con- vinced because some shells seem petrified, indicating they had been in water long time.
 Hoy explained that only the shells with the legs attached were washed ashore. All parts of the body had been emptied. He said all shells were intact, show ing they had not been crushed or damaged in battle. The shells were brittle and if one were pounded it would crumple in b:ts.
 Old-timers along the beach re- ported other phenomena in past years when the sea washed up various types of fish which were foreign to the locality and other strange life forms from the ocean deep, strengthening the belief of a strange sea malady.
 Warden Hoy made motion pie lures of the thousands of crabs for his records, because he said "a few years from now no one would believe such a thing oc- cured. I couldn't believe it until I saw it myself"

North Carolina Democrats and the Demo
+crats of every Southern State, as all of
these States and their people are "in the
same boat" as far as these matters touch
the future of the country, the continuance
of the American form of government, and
the nations welfare.
! AS a matter of fact, this statement is
equally applicable to all of the States and
their populations; but it seems to be al
ready too late to sound the warning in sew
eral Of the States. They are now swamped
by the radical tidaLwave.
The Texas Weekly says that conserva-
tive Democrats must take control of the
party in Texas. The reasons stated for urg-
ing this course are as sound in North Caro-
lima as in Texas.
1t is time for the Democrats of the South
that includes North Caroiina-to begin
the study of this situation and the prob
lens it forces upon the country.
Are the Democrats of the South going to
swallow the program of the radicals who
have seized control of the party organiza-
ton in majority of the States outside this
section? Are they going to permit the de-
struction of the American system of gov
eminent without protest and a fight?
Are they going to allow the party organ
ization to be used for this purpose by the
radicals of the country, who have stolen
the party livery and are masquerading
therein? y..r'..
Some North Carolina Democratic lead
ers have gone into far country with the
radicals. Others are standing by the old
landmarks, by fundamental principles, by
tried and true policies. The people know
where to find them. The others are lost in
the jungles of foreign radica1ism.
Who are the Democrats of North Caro-
lima going to follow, next year and in
1910?
1t is time to be bordering this question.
The answer should be ready for announce
ment by the beginning of next year. The
Democratic party in this State belongs to
the people, not to the leaders. They are
only individual members of the party.
Democrats who believe the party has
been led astray long enough and far
enough, and that the time has fully come
to rally to the sound doctrines and princl-
piles of true Americanism and the common
sense policies which the party has advocat-
ed in other years, ought to become active
at once with view to accomplishing ex-
aetly what The Texas Weekly proposes for
that State. . .,s, ....r e..

energetic, bull-voiced and force
full, ardently partisan, companion

ian, a strong rough and-tumble
broadswordsman on the floor,
friend of organized labor and

In his youthful farm days he is
said to have had l2-mile hog

He was elected eight times. to

Some of the pre-war and most
of the postwar railroad lesisla-

He has conspicuouSly opposed

1888 Banking act, MIRA, AAA and
other New Deal laws--especially
the Holding Company act.

WASHINGToN.-The close
" shave election of Senator
Alben w. Barley of Kentucky
as Senate majority leader is
likely to prove more important
than defeat of the Roosevelt court
plan. II depends on the degree
to which Barley, who will go
straight down the line for RooSe-
Welt, can exert Senate control.
The chief significance of Bark
ley's SO 30 81 victory over Sen
ator Pat Harrison of Mississippi,
is its accentuation Of the fact that
the southern Old Guard in the
Democratic party is making what
may or may not be its last stand
for power.
This is the first time a Demo-
cratic Senate has had leader who
wasn't from the deep south and

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
THE MENACE OF GOVERNMENT COERCION

The tendency to eentralize and to magnify the
power of the government and to multiply its inter-
vention in human affairs is to be noted today
throughout the world. Recently Mr.. Waiter Lipp-
mann said that though the partisans who are now
fighting for the mastery of the modern world wear
shirts of different eolors, their weapons are drawn
from the same armory, their doctrines are varia-
tons of the theme, and they go forth to Dat
tie singing the same tune with slightly different
words" "'Their weapons" he said, ARE coerclVe
regulation of the life and labor OF mankind Their
doctrine is that disorder and misery can be over
come only by more and more compulsory organiza-
ton. Their promise is that through the power OF
the state men can be made happy" My friends,
every dictator on earth today, whatever badge he
wears, fits into the pattern thus outlined by Mr..
Lippmann. And these proposals which are being
put forward in the United States by gentlemen
wearing the livery of democracy also MT into this
pattern. They all propose some form of eoercive
regulation of the life and labor of the people, they
all propose to overcome disorder and misery by
more and more compulsory organization, and they
all hold out the promise to make men happy through
the power of the government. There can be no
question about the direction in which such propos-
ais lead. They lead toward a point where all the
freedom of the people is ultimately surrendered in
exchange for a promise OF enhanced welfare.
Wherever in other countries this tendency has run
in its full course the result has been the complete
destruction of freedom, with no comparable en-
hancement Of welfare. This tendency must not be
permitted to run its course in the United States.
1t must be checked and reversed The American
people must return to the ways and the methods
of freedom in dealing with their problems, and they
must be aroused to the peril which now threatens
their institutions because Of the use Of other ways
and other methods. If you agree with this | would
like for you to write me- 1t is time for the people
to counsel together over this situation-Peter
Molyneaux in The Texas Weekly.

Sarasota, Fla, Jan. 28.-(UP)- If you passed Johnny Cooney on the street you might take him to be a hat salesman, a taxidermist, den- tist with offlces on the fifth floor, or almost anything but the finest fielding outfielder in the National Baseball league.
 But that's what he is-plus one of the greatest living examples out side the Salvation Army that man may be down but never out.
 I found Johnny living quietly in this little city on the gulf, and readying himself for his 17th season in baseball. A welterweight in size he stands well under six feet and scales little. more than 150- -Cooney is the fellow the baseball experts counted out of the game five years ago. But if you remember your 1886 records you know that Johnny, playing centerfield for the Brook lyns, took part in 130 games and handled 349 chances with but two misses for the nearly perfect aver- age of .994. This equaled the mark established by Len Koenecke of the same club in 1884. It might be noted that Koenecke also was a "has been" when he set his record.
 I asked Cooney what made him miss the two Balls he did, thus spelling his chance for an average which would stand until something better than perfection was devised.
 T know how missed the first one," he said, because it was 8 tough one. It came right out of the sun, and the only thing I saw was a black speck when it left the bat. I just stood there trying tQ pick it out of the glare. All of a sud- den it appeared and made a dive for it, but missed it. The other one I missed was so easy that I have been kicking myself ever since. It was a lazy little roller and instead of going down after it, I waited un- til it came to me. never touched it. It scooted right on between my legs"
 Did he think fielder would ever go through season without an error?
 "Oh sure. Baseball records are broken all the time. Some day a fielder will get all the breaks all year and wind up without pebble"
 Johnny rates Braves field as the easiest to play in the major cir cult. He thinks St. Louis and Chi cago are the toughest because of
