BED WATSON AND GALLANT FINISH TRAINING FOR BOUT OUTLAW LEAGUE WILL JOIN WITH REGULARS Lopping Off of Salaries Will follow Admission of Federals Into Fold. ' By Hal Sheridan. New York, May 7. Bob F.dgron, (porting editor 6f the New York Even ing World, refuses to take seriously Prank Chnnee's prediction that wur be tween the United Mate ami Mexico would wreck the Federal league. Com menting iu tliis connection, Kdgron sniil: "Tho various predictions reganlisg the iiniiiiiient failure of t'.ie Federal league hecaus) of the insidiious inn I undermining influence of the "Mexi can war," are very amusing. "It doesn't require the future rend ing powers of a Hcotch seer to tell ex- nctly what will happen. " Within a year or so organized base ball will still be organized bnschall. 'i'he Federal league, very much Blivo, will bo uimilgnuiated with the other leagues. Thero'll bo no more linselmll war. 1'robably the circuits will be en larged to tuko iu 12 clubs. The hack ers of tho Federal league are all busi ness men. Tiiny have put up great sums of money building ball parks and pay ing increased salaries to players. They Bra going to protect their investment. If the 'Mexican' war. or war scare, keeps people away from bull parks it will hurt the organized" baseball people, who have their main investment in baseball, more than the Federal league backers, who havo oth r interests work ing for thorn and arc "taking up base ball as an outlet for superfluous cap ital. "The players are Ihe ones who need to worry over hasennll futures. Probably as soon as tho various magnates are gathered under one brand, tho first thing they will attend to will be the loppii'g off of superflu ous expense. And as there will be no compensation of players, prices will take aflop. We will go back to the San Francisco, May 7.

In their last battle hero Watson brought over a right hand swing to tho jaw in the four teenth round that a'most put the Bos tonian away. Watson is in splendid condition for the contest, and is con fident of winning by a knockout.

I ' Editor Capital Journal: The good roads boosters arc now telling us that local labor will be employed in build ing the proposed hard-surface roads. We were told tho same thing whon we paved our streets, but not ninny of us got steady jobs. If we vote for the road bonds the an mo thing will happen again. Judge Bushy eiim insert into the contract that local labor be employed as fnr as practical. But what good will that do? He cannot enforce it. When the contractors start the worR they can discharge anybody they please and run in a lqt of dagoos and Creeks and other foioigners. And we local laboring men can hunt other jobs so we can eara money to pay the high taxes on our homes. A part of those taxes will be used to meet too con tractor's money out of which he will pay his labor. This promise to employ local labor amounts to nothing. It is only a bid for our voters. Whon these country roads are built this city will bo fillod up-with outside labor brought in by the contractors and stranded here. My advice tQ every laboring man is to voto against the bonds. This will keep out foreign labor and help to ko-p our taxes down. LABORING MAN. Salem, May 8, 1914, POSSES SCOUR HILLS FOR MIDDLETOWN EXPRESS BANDITS 1 Cnlistoga, Cal., Mayj 7. Posses were scouring the hills about iliddletown to day for the three highwaymen who last niL'ht shot and killed Pam Harris, Mid dletown general merchant and local agent for the Wells Fargo Express com pany, knocked his brother Orson out with a blow from a pistol butt, robbed them of about $100 und escaped into the darkness. The crime was committed in true wild western style. leaded with arms, the robbers galloped up to Harris' store, drove the brothers inside at the pistols' points and shot the storekeeper because ho attempted to shut the ex press safe. The shooting evidently up set their plans, however, for after rob bing Orson Harris and the murdered man's body they galloped away again without stopping to ransack the sale. Chief John P. Seymour of the Wells Fargo company's gernl agents was expected soon to take charge of the hunt. I il STEAMSHIP CITT OF ROME BURNED TODAY Should an ordinanco that is now pending before the Salem city council bo passed it will be unlawful for any man, woman, child, company, or cor poration, to have or to hold any un licensed dog within the limits of tho municipality. Tho measure was in troduced at the last meeting of the council and pnaseil from the first to the second reading. Unless something unforseen takes place, it will be up for final passage at the next meeting. Male dogs over four months old, ac cording to this measure, will be taxed $4 for permission to live within the i - , i..- .m rrk !:.,:., . I. .i : 1 1 l- .l: l : i. - .u ' VI mu iion will vv nuiiieiuiUK linn luu registration of voters in' its exactitude in asking questions. When the matron rqipears before the city recorder to get a license for "Teddy", "Annabelle", "General", or "Fluffy Ruffles", she will have to give its name, its ago, Sex, the breed whether Scotch, Skye, Pomeranian, or just plain scrub and also a description photographs of the dearly beloved may be deposited in lieu of -descriptions, if desired. When in the opinion of the city health oficer, on whose shoulders the burden of dog-catching will be shunted, a dog has meandered about the streets long enough without ' having visible means of support in the way of a license tag, he is empowered, by au thority vested in him by the council, to corral such dog, lasso him with a dog-net, cart him in a specially pro vided wagon to a spot prepared at Thirteenth and Ferry streets for the reception of dogs njid then and there asphyxiate him by the use of gas. That is what is going to happen to many poor pups in Salem, unless by some feat of legerdemain thoy can con trive to keep looking as young as Anna Held or the far-famed Mile. Bernhardt, who defioth time and eter nity in her youthfulness. A pup will ho safe as long as he can prove he is under four, but after the age limit is passed it is, "Lo! Youthful canine, beware! ' ' ' If no license is secured for the family pet and it strays away and gets cniiBht, it is tho duty, of the pound master to notify tho owner in writing through the mails, by telephone, tele graph, or other means -or communica tion, that his or her dog is impounded raid that is it is not claimed within three davs it will be asphyxiated- whatever that means, but doubtful if the Salem product is used by the city health officer, and then buried m a sanitary and healthful manner. If anyone is convicted under this ordinrsico before it is repealed or rescinded they may be fined all the way from $5 to $100 or even sent to jaii. At the council meeting Monday night there was a warm debate over the merits of the measure. Some of the councilmen thought it discrimin ated and dfscrimination is the bane of freedom and political liberty and what the Mexicans are fighting against in favor of the rich man's dog and against the poor street urchin's pup. How on earth was the newsboy who had a ragged, unwashed, loving little cur to tag him about and encourage him by. wagging his tail when things went blue and bluer, how was this lit tle newsboy going to get $4 together to pay the city for the privilege of having a dog. The councilman from the Seventh ward did not think it right. He was there to defend the youngsters and he did. He wanted the license reduced and placed within the reach of the lowliest lad, who ten to one, loves his little pup just as well as the society belle loves her high bred animal. GOES TO SIBERIA FOR KISS. St. Petersgurg, May 7. Siberia will probably be the penalty of a kiss for M. Ivanhoff, student, who was, today indicted for attempted murder. He made the Russian Easter custom of oc culatory greeting of the faithful the excuse for kissing pretty Mile. Lise Alibert, a fellow student. The girl, re fusing to regard the salutation in its religious aspect, screamed, and her brother, rushing into the room, knock ed Ivanholl down. The latter then drew a revolver and shot at her brother but missed. Meantime the girl had summoned the police, but Ivanhoff, brandishing the reiolver, escaped to the street, jumped into a taxicab and compelled the chauffeur to drive off at top speed. Ivanhoff fired at his pursuors without effect, and when his ammunition was exhanstod the chauf feur refused to go any further, and the young man was arrested. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS.
