L. H. Hamilton has joined the progressives and at Lowell Saturday addressed a big gathering. He says that the enthusiasm there is intense and that a full county ticket will be put into the field: That would be the real bull moose aim, the defeat of the republican ticket and the election of democrats. It is claimed that some democrats in Lowell are identified with the bull moose movement. It was claimed that there would be some in Jasper county, too, but we have not learned of any up to date. There are some places about Rensselaer where the weeds and grass have grown much too high for appearance sake. In some instances the grass almost obscures the sidewalk and persons have to go dingle file when the grass is. wet. A visitor from another city remarked a few days ago that sueh conditions would not be tolerated in their town. For the most part Rensselaer peopfe have taken a great deal of pride in looking after their home surroundings. There is that added reason why negligent people should be required to do so. The frequent rains have made the lawns of rare beauty this summer.

Prize Fighting Under Dome of Capitol.
Lafayette Journal. Attention is called to the tollowing paragraph from the sporting page of an Indianapolis newspaper: “'Fight bugs, who saw the mill between George Chip, of Newcastle, Pa., and Jack Dillon, at the Empire theatre, will have to hand it?tuthe twenty-one year old Hoosier champion, and it is a pretty safe bet that he is the best in that division. The bout was savagely fought, with Dillon the winner in every round. Chip is the toughest mug ever seen in thedocal ring, and this he demonstrated by taking one of the worst beatings ever handed any one in this neck of the woods.” This prizefight was held within four blocks of the Indiana state house where sits a governor who would be vice-president of the United States, and who, in the eventualities of human affairs, may be president. The east has an idea that Governor Marshall is a man of high ideals. He is the only Indiana governor to close his eyes to the flagrant violation of the anti-prize fighting law. During his administration prize fighting has flourished in favored sections of the state. Other, governors have believed it their duty to suppress the evil but Mr. Marshall has done nothing.

SPORTING RESUME.
(By B. B. Bug.)
Sunday’s Results. National League. No games scheduled. American League. Detroit 8 Philadelphia 4 Boston 5 Chicago 4 Washington 4-3 Cleveland 1-2 New York 9-6 St. Louis 4-3 For the first time in years Washington is up in the* race fighting for the pennant. It now appears to be a fight between the Red Sox and the Senators for the bunting. Rude Waddell, famous southpaw\of several major league clubs, but now with Minneapolis, is to be operated on for gall stones. The Rube is expected to win many games before taking his arm to the boneyard. The St. Louis Browns tightened their grip on the cellar yesterday when they dropped a couple to the Yanks. • Jake Stahl, Boston manager and Chicago banker, showed off to the home folks yesterday, getting a home run, triple and single in four times up. Pretty fair for a “comeback.” Eh, Jake? The reported shakeup of the Pirates seems to have been newspaper gossip. Mike Donlin, Bobby Byme and Johnny Miller were to have been benched in favor of ypunsters, but they are still in, playing the game of their lives. “Smiling” Al Orth, old New York pitcher, is to become an umpire in the American League in a time. President Johnson hasn’t yet reported whose head will fall, but it is presumed , that it will be Westervelt’s. While Rube Marquade has won 19 straight, one must not forget to take a glance at Joe Woods’ record. The Rube has 21 won and 4 lost, while Wood has 20 and 4. Ty Cobb has got back into his regular position in the batting averages. Every player in the league is now trailing him. Eddie Cidotte gave his former pals a hard fight yesterday, but finally succumbed to the heavy hitting, Red Sox 5 to 4. Murphy, Cub boss, President; Fagot SIO,OOO for young Rixey, a college pitcher picked up by Dooin. Reports have it that new men will have hold of the managerial reins in Detroit, Cincinnati and Boston next season. Ed Euelbach is rapidly assuming ■the title of the “Ready Rescuer,” held by Mordicai Brown, having finished two games on successive days and got credit “for two wins.
