ELECTIONS - Every once and
again you'll hear some fellow say
that politics has really turned out
to be something. He'll give you the
impression that the way we do it
today is outrageous. 'Tain't so
Politics in 1856 isn't any different
than politics in 1856, or even in
1911.
For instance, The Raleigh Mi
Lerva of July 10, 1911, has this to
say about the political situation
There's new style in politick-
ing, that Of riding to every home
attending every tax gathering and
muster ground. drenching the peo-
pie with WhiSkey to excess, shak-
ing hands with all. and if need
be. humbling himself like a mere
spaniel before the meanest grades
OF men. Add to this. making bar
hecue and giving treats at public
riaceS and. particularly, aSSidious-
ly attending church for a few
weeks prior to the election"

the GoldSboro Messenger editor
wrote in the spring of 1889:
Father, who travels our road SO
late?'
Hush, my child, It's the candi-
date!

Early he comes and late he goes
He greets the woman with courtly
grace;
He kisses the baby's dirty face;
Ee calls to the fence the farmers
at work,
He bores the merchant, he bothers
the clerk:
The blacksmith while his anvil
rings,
He greets and this is the song he
sings:
'Howdy, howdy, how dye do?
How is your wife and how are
you?
All, it fits my fist as no other
can,
The horny hand of the working
man
Husband, who is that at the
gate?'
Hide, my love. it's the candidate.
Husband, why can't he work like
you?
Has he nothing at all at home to
do?"
My dear, whenever a man is
down
No cash at home, no credit in
town
Too plain to preach, too proud to
beg,
100 timid to rob, too lazy to dig,
Then over his horse, his legs he
fligns,
And to the dear people this song
he sings:

Declaring there has been some
misunderstanding about the rule.
Warren Giles asserted today that
any postponed games in the Ma

a pennant decision must be
played OF at the end of the
regular season.
The league president said that
prior to a change two years ago.
the league rules provided that
only games postponed or tied on
the last day of the season would
have to be played of if they
might affect the league cham

THAT rule was changed two
years ago." Giles said, "and APP
Iparently is not completely under

inquiries we've received lately.
Our rule now states that all
postponed or tied games that re-
main unplayed after the closing
day Of the season which, il
played. could affect the winning
Iof the championship. are re-
CURED to be played off,"
The rule also provides that
such games are to be played or

Inc one thing they want at

OF what they do have is choice.

the job done. But more often
than not, it's been Furillo swing
ing the bust-up bat in the close
ones.
He was at it again last night,
knocking in two runs with a
f1rst-inning single and then
wrapping up the Dodgers fourth
straight victory with a 10th in
ming home run that beat Cincip-
natl, ga, and hoisted Brooklyn
into a one-game lead. The blow

pitching crumbling a little more

Braves ON Spot
With the Dodgers two games
ahead on the losing side of the
standings, the Braves are on the
spot. A sweep of their nine re-

must-yet even that will carry
no guarantee.
While the Braves have lost
nine of their last Is games, the
Dodgers have won eight of their

That same series saw Furillc

smacked a two-run double that
broke a III tie with Chicago in

Yet on June l, when Brooklyn
was in fifth place. three games
behind the front-running Braves,

Furillo dependable "if a good
pitcher can be had in a trade"

FurilIo's heroics last night were
prompted by back-to-back home
runs by Ed Bailey and Ray Jab-

inning that tied the score at
