ject to Recall by Athletics
In the first swing of the ax by Con
nie Mack, yesterday, one Harrisburg
player was hit. Sam (Red) Crane, the

Last season Crane was a big star
In Southern baseball, playing with

Mack has a string on the boy. Crane
was a star with the P. R. B. Y'. M. C.

ning factor with New Cumberland and
other teams in this section. Others
who were turned back by Mack last
night are:
Hank Bostick. infielder. to Newark
Internationals; Pitcher Gardinier, to
Newport News: Joe Sherman, outfield
pr and pitcher, Jersey City Interna
tionals: Pitchers Yoltz, Hamilton and
Heed, unconditionally.
All that remains of the thirteen
coungsters who tried for their varsity
letters in the South are Pitchers Wil
bur Davis and Harper and Sam Mc-
Donnell, infielder. a Philadelphia boy,
formerly with Girard College.
Manager Mack may make a further
rut In his squad about May 1, as he
has announced intentions of carrying
>nly 22 players this season, though the
American-League limit is placed at 25.

You Smokers Who
Like Strong Cigars
Do you know that imagination has a lot to do with
your taste? Don't bank too much on black tobacco.
A full-bodied all Havana smoke with a rich aroma
will touch the spot quicker and with less harmful re
sults than the strongest cigar rolled. Get wise and
get a quality smoke for your dime.

SIDES & SIDES
HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
COMMITTEE REPORT IS
ADMITTED TO RECORD
[Continued from First Page.]
the former president's third day on the
witness stand.
William Loeb, Jr., private secretary
to Colonel Roosevelt when he was
President, and later collector of the
port of New York, was an early arrival
at the courthouse to-day. Mr. Loeb is
under subpena and it was considered
probable that he would be the next
witness for the defense after the cross
examination o£ the Colonel was con
cluded.
There was some delay in opening
court to-day because of a conference
between attorneys and Justice An
drews in the latter's chambers. A copy
of the report of the Bayne committee,
which investigated Albany county af
fairs, insofar as it related to printing,
was admitted to the record. This had
to do with contracts for State printing
let to the Albany Journal, Mr. Baylies'
paper, and other concerns, and the
assignment of certain of theso con
. tracts.
Head Parts of Report
Portions of the report were then
read. The first part had to do with I
gambling, disorderly houses, and the I
payment of money to various officials
for doing various thing?. The report
of the committee was made In 1911.
The majority of the stock of the
Journal company, the report pointed
out was owned by William Barnes, that
contracts let to the Journal company
were farmed out to the Argus Com
pany. which paid the Journal company
15 per cent.
The report stated that William
Barnes controlled printing in Albany,
practically was owner of one com
pany, owned one-fourth of another
company and collected tribute from
the third company. The report declar
ed that an employe of the Argus com
pany testified before the committee
that the company gave up 13 per cent.
In order to secure printing business.
Tt was stated that the Argus com
pany bid lower than other competitors
for State work but was unable to get
the business because it was "outside
the ring." It was said further, that |
public documents supposed to havej
been printed by the Journal company,
and bearing that concern's imprint, ac-1
tuallv were printed by the Argus com- |
pany.
"Padding of public printing for the j
benefit of the Journal company," was I
described by the repbrt.

gines use our highways and are as
much a subject of taxation as a horse
or any other personal property."

"FIGHT IS ON," SAYS
GOVERNOR BRUMBAUGH
[Continued from First Page.]
confidently upon a result worthy the
best thought and interests of our citi
zens.
"This campaign has only begun.
[Great reforms are not wrought in a
day. It takes time and effort to se
cure results worthy our Common
wealth. For the good of our peoplo
and as their servant I have done what
I could. A great army of splendid
people have done a memorable service.
They cannot ultimately lose. The
right will win.
"I shall go steadily forward In the
confident conviction that the people
of our great Commonwealth now face
the light and will do the right. I am
in this contest to the finish. I call
upon all free-tpinded citizens to think
of this great, splendid Commonwealth.
Its destiny and its people, and with the
broadest charity and fullest confidence
begin planning now for a certain vic
tory at the first opportune occasion.
"I fully expect the Child Labor bill
to pass. The measure has the full sup
port of Senator McNlchol, Senator
Vare and other leading Senators, in
cluding a large majority of the Sen
ate. They assure me that they will
vote for the bill as it came from the
House. 1 expect it In my hands in a
very few days."
(Signed) "M. G. BRUMBAUGH."
Backers of the Governor's bill were
loath to discuss the subject publicly
to-day, but privately admitted that one
of the defects in the movement was
the lack of properly organized work
in the primary elections In the legis
lative districts last year.

and telegrams and eloquent oratory
are of comparatively little value and
cannot he expected to save the sit
uation after there has been an entire
failure to see to the nomination of
candidates for the legislature who are
'right'," was the statement to-day of a
member of the House who did his best
to work up strength for the local op
tion. "The way to pass a local op
tion bill is to elect men to the legis
lature who are committed to vote for
such a bill, and not to wait until the
Legislature assembles and then try to
get members to change their attitude
on the subject."
This member, it is believed, voices
the opinion of some near the Gov
ernor and it is expected that a pro
grain of action based on that view vl'
the situation will be adopted. Gov
ernor Brumbaugh is committed to the
waging of an active campaign for the
election of a local option majority in
the next legislature.
The Governor also, It is expected,
will consider the nossibility of per
suading the Republican state leaders

to accept his view of the advisability
of the party Itself taking a stand for
local option next time. If he has this
seriously in mind, the stories of pos
sible breaks between the Governor and
the state leaders following their fail
ure to support him in his effort for a
local option bill this time are likely to
prove without foundation.
Senator McXichol intimated some
time ago that, while under pledges
that would prevent his helping out on
local option this time, it might be pos
sible for him to line up with the Gov
ernor on that question two years
hence. All of the leaders realize the
political disadvantage of having the
party tied up with the "liquor inter
ests" and they would be glad to find
a way out.
In the heat of the contest over local
option there has been more or less
talk against the Governor for his ac
tivity in trying to get votes for the bill,
but by the time the legislature recon
venes next week interest in the other
big legislative questions will predomi
nate.
