Importance of Neu- trality in Elections Of interest to all residents of the Mountain Division, who are members of the Red Cross, is the following letter received by divisional head- quarters from National headquarters of the American Red Cross at Wash- ington, D.

It was the first day of the increased | fare put into effect by the Boston Elevated Railway company, which controls all of the surface lines, sub- ways, and elevated railroads of Bos- ton and nearly all of the surburban territory.

Tener, president, in his pub- lic stand against the American league. Instead of. talking about what should be done in the case and publicly de- claring themselves either opposed to or for the man who has done so much for the elder major league, the Na- tional’s magnates are holding their peace and making some real hay. | George Stalling’s manager of the Boston, club, is the only man con- nected with the National league who has expressed himself in any terms of certainty regarding the Perry con- troversy. ,As Stallings is the man in the National league principally in- terested in the discussion, his words |were quickly gobbled up. He de- clared himself in favor of a stron |stand against Ban Johnson to “show jhim where he gets off.” As a matter of fact, Jolinson is scarcey as much to bame as Connie Mack, for without Mack's action in jearrying the case to the’ courts the deed of President Tener would not ‘have shown its head.

Al- so, it may preclude playing the world’s series, for rules which govern that baseball classic provide that the national commission shall make all rules and shall preside over the games.
