WITHOUT BENEFIT OF WATSON.
Mr. W. J. Jlarrls'a reply t" Thomas
Watson is good and helpful reading.
It tray not help Mr. Harris to become
governhr of Georgia but though this
consummation would he grateful and
satiefactory to us, we do not think It
matters as much who becomes the
governor us that the people of Geor
gia shall throw off the yoke of petty
animosities nnd personal grudges, by
which Tom Watson holds Ids power.
Read Mr. Harris's letter. It Is dig
nified and free from the vituperation
and Insult which characterises Tom
Watson's effusions, hut It Is plain and
to the point. The candidate who can
say to Tom Watson: "I would not ask
your support, even If by ihlfng so I
could become the governor of my
state," has the right stuff In him.
The way In which the politicians of
Georgia have snuggled up to Tom
Watson, for the fear that his power of
detraction and hatred might he used
against them, has served to encourage
the vindictive and personal element as
a controlling force In the destinies of
the state.
Our Interests are too large, out fu
ture too great for such humiliating and
degrading emotions. l,et the broad
progressive and high minded men of
the stale stand together against these
destructive Influences.
In his closing paragraph Mr. Harris
tells Tom Watson,
"You live on hute anil devote your
time and, talent to endeavoring to de
stroy the tharacters of some of our
best men. instead of helping Hie mass
es. and for this reason your following
of loyal men long ago deserted you."
No political office Is honorably held
with hatred us ita supporter.
PERSONAL RIGHTS OF LABORING
MEN.
We are harassed with doubts as to
whether Mr. John D. Rockefeller's (It
Is John t). Junior, he it understood)
championship of the right of the In
dividual workman to sell his time and
labor at bargain prices Is fully appre
ciated.
Mr. Rockefeller aaya he Is Just one
of Ihe many who are Interested In the
Colorado mines, but It Is a matter of
principle with him, not to accept dic
tation front the strikers, and he In
tends to stand right up to the right of
•vary man in this country to work if
he wants to, regardless of whether he
belongs to a labor organization or not.
This la very fine of Mr. Rocekefeller
Doubtless be fully believes that his at
titude la exalted and noble. It makes
hint indignant to see the honest work
ing man coerced by the unions. It Is
a fa! nst hts notions of freedom and
Independence to see men glad and will
ing to labor yet forbidden to do so by
organisations that purport to have the
Interacts of the laboring men at heart.
The little figure which Mr. John D
Rockefeller, Junior, has omitted to
add Into hie column Is Just this: No
man really wants to spend long hours
of hard toll In the black depths of the
earth. They only do this work be
cause Fate limits them to their choice
of vocations. No man would delib
erately decide upon a life of long hours
and poor pay in vocations which
are coerced, by unfortunate conditions
and the stress of personal circum
stances to accept whatever small and
disadvantageous opportunities present
themselves.
The labor organizations simply try
to overcome one compelling force by
another. It Is their object to band the
laborers together under a voluntary
pledge and set up restrictions as ab
solute and as Inflexible as those which
exist because of our huperfect social
system
Of course, the restrictions Imposed
by the unions are for the purpose of
etamisrditiling the price and bettering
the condltlone of thev often
Repose personal sacrifice and they
very frequently conflict* with private
and rights. Yet hsrd as thev
may api <st ... not think that 1
laboring men will be any better off for
the championship of Mr. John l>.
Rockefeller, Jr.. m>r can we suppose
that they will show due gratitude to
him as the guardian of their right to
accept the coercions of " fate" In pres
ence to the coercions of the labor un
ions

The Current Ball Season Promises To Be
Unusually Productive in Develop

ones who are slid ng down. Without ex
ception 'very team In the two big le.i
kucb already has shown one or more
new men of ability, and tße season is
still less than h month old. In college
Basel hi II the crop seems to be a potiftdy
balanced one, with the result that some
men stand out head and shoulders above
their teammates, which makes It cer
tain that a number of youths from this
source will bolt up Into the big show
when the seholast c terms end In June.

But enough rec* ults have been seen
thus far to keep the year far from being

and second basemen, shortstops and
outfielders men for every position
have broken In with the opening gun tills

of them will stick around as regulars for

Probably the most sensational recruit

a big factor In the pennant battle of
\b Draw’s men. Herbert Murphy of the
Phillies looks like a fair shortstop. Cin
cinnati has a good looking third sucker
in Nlehoff and the Boston Braves a
promising first baseman in Schmidt.
Kopf. a kid shortstop with the Athletics,
fills Jack Barry’s shoes in good simps
when tim latter is unable to play. Scott
of the Bed Sox appears to be a real star
at shortstop since Helule Wagner has
been Incapacitated. Jack Leary, the new
first baseman of the Browns, also seems
like a sure success.
Capable outfielders also have broken
in. The Boston Braves have Jim Mur
ray. the Pirates, Joe Kelly, the Cubs,
Johnston the slugging king of the Pa
cific Coast and the Cardinals, Cruise.
Good Players.
The Federal Letgm* also is well to
the fore with good young hall pJnycvs.
Max Fleck, the Chicago outfielder. Is
probably one of the hem of the bunch.
Tinker calls this kid Ty Cobb tlie Sec

running. and the youth also is a good
hitler and fielder, 'Pom McGuire, a
voting p tcher, Cwft Coles in the outfield
and Jack Furred at second are other
good striplings on Tinker s team. Ed
die Tobin of the Bt. Louis Feds is an
olher sensational outfit der and
MilUr lias been lining well as a first
baseman. Baltimore lias a promising
catcher in Harvey Russell and Brooklyn
an Impress.ve young pitcher in Juul.

the boy catcher of Indianapolis, is play
