THE MOItNING AST01UAN, ASTOIUA, OREGON.
NEW-YORK DAFFY OVER
BASE BALL TIE
SOME INTERESTING READING
FOR PANS, ANENT YES
TERDAY'S GAME.
NOTHING ELSE TALKED OF
Situation Was an Unique One in
Baseball History, at Both Cuba
and Gianta Stood Even at End of
f Long Season'! Contest ' 1
NEW YORK, Oct, P.-Xcw York
is baslmtll crazy 'to-day.'. Election!,
war rumor in the Balkan and every
thing due ha been forgotten. No one
talk of anything, but baseball and the
probable outcome of till afternoon'
game between New York and Chica
go. With the Chicago team speed-
in? across the country ai last at
jrtam would bring them. .cw i or
ders talked themselves hoarse lat
night and only Hopped .that they
might rest their voice for the de
mand that will be made on them on
the polo ground tin afternoon.
The situation i a unique one in
baseball history. Both the Cub and
Giants having finished the season with
a percentage of 641, tied for the pre-
i clou bit of bunting that mean 10
much to the winner in the National
League. On the result of to-day'
game hang the success or failure of
a season's hard work. It Is a bombas
tic and fitting climax to the season
of unparallctlcd thrill.
Never before have two team been
tied for the championship at the end
of the race. Never before ha the race
been o close, never ha it been nec
essary to play off the tie of ix
month' baseball in a single battle.
That the game will be a struggle to
the death is certain, for the town is in
the grip of the-greatest excitement,
fringed about by nervous prostration.
The Jatt performance and gener
al statistic the pitcher look alike
"Christy" Matthewson and Mordecal
Drown, he of the three finger. Matty
ha not pitched since he twirled
against Philadelphia on Saturday.
However, he looks drawn and tired
and it is still doubhtful whether he
will be in the box.
Matthewson has not beaten Brown
in two years, having pitched several
close games. This superstitious in
fluence may have its effect on the se
lection of twirlcr. No class on earth
are such patrons of the god of luck
a baseball players. Then Chicago
may use Reulbach who ha not had
a run scored aaginst him in the last
nine games he has pitched.
Many night workers, early this
rooming, went directly from their:
places of employment to the grounds.
It is freely predicted on all sides that
thousands will be turned away and
that all record of attendance will be
shattered. Many persons went to the
grounds at five and six o'clock this

position on the line. The gates will
i ooen at noon and undoubtedly be
closed long before tlic game starts nt
three o'clock.
Astoria Theatre on Saturday Matinee
and, night and have expended a great
deal of time and money on their band
and orchestra, and that the music
loving populace appreciate this effort
is amply proven by the praise beard
upon every side.
The land is under the leadership
of Fred Simpson, the noted trom
bone; virtuoso, justly styled "The
Black Prayor"' The superb operatic
orchestra is conducted by William
Kobton, whose musical education
whs completed abroad.
But the good thing they have to
offer doc not stop with the band and
orchestra. There arc a host of come
dian, singer and dancers, "and some
of the highest priced vaudeville acts
ever Carried by a minstrel company.
Richard & Prinze's Famous Min
strel have probably made more peo
ple laugh 'than all the other minstrel
show combined, for during the 29
years of their existence, they have
appeared in, every country where the
English ' tongue is spoken. They are
genuine Ethiopians, and their singing
and dancing are such a only the real
darkey is capable, 0,
They have the strongest company
this season that ha ever appeared
under the well known title, and con
sequently they are doing a record
breaking business. , ,
The big street parade will take
place as usual at noon.
FOUR CORNERS OF THE EARTH
"The Four Corners of the Earth,"
the new spectacular melodrama which
belongs to Ivlimt & Gazzolo enter
prises, it said to be the best of the
long string of plays written by Win.
L. Robert. The plot carries one
around the world at a high rate of
speed, but the action hesitates long
enough to display the beautiful
painted scenic points of interest en
tour. The story is vividly enacted by
a company of greater number than
is usual with melo-dramatic produc
tions and tell of a young cowboy
who travels to the four corners of
the earth; trying to rescue his intend
ed wife, who is beink taken forcibly
by a revengful woman and man who
are detaining her for ransom. The
plot takes the entire company on a
very long -"journey that ends in true
theatrical fashion. "The Four Cor
ners of the Earth" is said to be" de
cidedly an out-of-the-ordinary play,
thoroghly interesting as a dramatic
production,' delightfully , and pictures
quely "set and with a ripple of comedy
and music running through it that is
positively refreshing. It will be seen
at the Astoria Theatre next Sunday
night.. ,
AMUSEMENTS
No race of people love music more
than Americans. r,
Fully alive to this fact, the man

LABOR FIGIJTS CANNON.
CHICAGO, Oct .8, Labor is pre
paring a final and determined on
slaught on the candidacy of Speaker
Joseph G. Cannon. The political ac
tion committee of the Chicago Fed
eration of Labor yesterday made
plans to send a number of labor lea
ders into Commerce district next
week, .
During the last weeks of the cam
paign there will be nearly fifty labor
speakers in Danville, Kankakee and
the vicinity. Two organizers for the
American Federation of Labor are it
the district now making speeches for
the democratic candidate for Speak
er Cannon's seat in the house of rep
resentatives. Among those to be
sent by the Chicago Federation of
Labor will be Secretary Edwin Ni

ECU TELL OH BETAS.
Za Ilia "Shall tht P.opU fculsf"
Blmply "a local Issusf"
Congressman Henry guennan Bou
tH of Chicago,' commenting on Mr.
Bryan's apeucti In Iowa, says;
. Mr. Bryan's question, "Buall the peo
ple rule?" Implies that somewhere 4a
this country tint people do not rute.
The only UnU win-re the people do
not rule art tu 8taU that are ex
jHwted to give overwhelming majorities
for the Democratic ticket. Perhaps
Mr. Bryan thinks that bis question la
purely "a local Issue." If be te sin
cere, I challenge him to make a speech
In Vlekabiirg,- Miss., on "Governaieut
by the People." Let him repent om of
bis famous autt-luiperlullHt speeches,
simply elmiiglug three words, substitut
ing "MIsslKslppl" for "Philippines" and
"bluck brothers" for "brown brothers."
Let blui suggest that we have as chair
man of his meeting John Sharp Wil
liams, loader of the Democrats in Con
gress, end as vice-chairmen the other
members of the Congressional delega
tion from Mississippi.
And after lie has made his speech
la Vlcksburg, If ho shall hare escaped
ths rule of the people In that 'com
munity, I dure Mr, Bryan to rjat
his oration on popular government In
Charleston, 8. C with Senator Till
man as chairman of his meeting, kr.
Bryan's sentiment hare a purely geo
graphical sincerity. His epigrams and
startling conundrums are especially de
signed to meet local demands. Of this
nature are all bis views sa tariff aad
taxation.
Mr. Bryan's proposition that every
time a trust Is formed tariff sched
ule should be regaled, and every time
a trust la dissolved a new duty should
be added, Is too funny even for comic
opera. " "
If on March 4 nest Mr. Bryaa aboold
become President, with Democratic
Congress In botb houss, aid should
actually place upon the statute books
the financial and economic vagaries de
livered by him In bis speech of last
Friday, It would plunge ths nation Into
bankruptcy and bring on industrial
chaos. If be should begin by repealing
the duty on sugar to punish the sugar
trust, be -would r upset the national
finances by losing 0O,0OO,0OO a year
la rerenues, and would stir up a revo
lution in Louisiana, Utah, Colorado
and Michigan. Then, if be sbould re
peal the duty on cotton goods, because
some hustling manufacturers of New
England or -the-Csrollnas were dump
ing goods In Cltltia'lu rivalry with Eng
land and Germany, he would divert
otlr. millions from the treasury and
Invite itllf further Industrial ruin.
But, of course, Mr, Bryan would do
none of these things, any mors than
be wlfl 'Invade fhs tfolid Souls and sum
mon the cohorts of DiMoeracy to the
defence of the Constitution with tSie
battle cry "Stshll the Peopls Ruler
Mr. Bryan simply does not tnsan wfcat
be any. What he utter with Cbad
bandlan unction In the North ha repudi
ates with Pecksulfllan duplicity In the
gouts,

The business men of our community
as a whole are hoaiwt and their meth
ods are sound. The President has
never said otherwise. Indeed, It Is
chiefly In the Interest of the great body
of honest business men that be has
made his fight for lawful business
methods. Hon. Wffi. fl. Tuft, to Mer
chants and Manufacturers' Association,
Boston, Mass.
The highest claim of William Me
Klnley foe the gratitude of hi coun
trymen is that, in spits of ths abuse
and contumely that was heaped upon
bis bead for tills policy, be placed our
country In the forefront of nations ss

peoples. Hon. Win. II. Taft, at Cleve
