ALLEGED ILLEGAL PITCHING.

uoJ1co In the new orK suns W asnIng-
ton correspondence, which appears in the
Sun Of June ]. a statement to the effect
that Manager Arson, of tho Chicago club,
claims that the act Of pitcher in lifting the
heel of the foot which stands on the back
line OF his position when about to deliver
the ball to the bat is illegal / think the
rule is very PLAIN on this point, and the rule
says: He shall not raise his right foot
unless sn the oct o. delivering the bal, nor make
more than one step in such delivery" To lift
the toe Of his right foot would be TO take two
steps in delivery. as he would then neces-
sarily lift his foot from the ground.
But so long IS only the heel is lifted the
rule is not violated either in It's spirit or its
letter. l think the appeal made on this
point Is nothing more than one of Ansoa's
peculiar tactics il trying to discompose the
pitcher, and not that he thinks that there is
any violation Of the rule in the lifting Of
the heel 1t merely affords him an excuse
to work point No pitcher should be
bothered about it II IS on a par with his
constant disputing Of decisions in which
only errors Of Judgment by the umpire are
involved. and which disputing is il vicIs-
tion Of the rules and makes him emenablo

"OIRTY" BALL PLAYING.
Several Cincinnati Players Accused OF
Practlcing II Regularly.

Some Louisville and Kansas City players
recently told Sporting Life reporter that
John Reilly, of the Cincinnatis, plays as
dirty ball as any man in the association,
barring young McCartey, of the Browns.
Said one of the Louisville men: "Mulford
and Weldon had better quit talking about
the dirty ball the Browns are playing and
turn their batteries upon Reilly. That
young Mccarthy is the dlrtiest ball player
this country has ever produced and unless
he changes his style he will be killed one of
these days. But barring Mccarthy, the
Browns have not got man on their team
that plays the dirty tricks that Reilly is
playing this year Reilly has suddenly de-
veloped into q basc-runner.
Nobody objects to his base-runuing but
when be slides TO bases he purposely kicks
up at the basemeu for the purpose of spik-
ing them. His object is to injure them so
that they Will drop the ball or to intimidate
them so that they will thereafter be afraid
to get near him when he slides to bases"
When this interview was repeated TO
several Of the Kansas City players while
here, they all coDcurred in il. They agreed
that next TO Mccarthy, Reilly was the
dlrtiest player in the association.
In this connection it might be stated that
the Western players have passed the word
along the line among the Eastern players
and posted the latter about McCarthys rep
rehensible tricks, and all are on the look
out for him. They are laying for him and it
VIII not be safe for him TO Intentionally
spike or iajure any Of them. Said one of
them: If Mccarthy, Reilly or any other
dirty ball player ever spikes me intention
ally, l Will signal my catcher to throw the
ball high 70 me the very next time that
player starts 10 come my way. and if don't
jump high into the air and bring my spikes
down sQuarely on him and spike him so
badly that he won't play month after that

A Guarantee Needed.

From the New York World
If high tariff must be maintained in
order to make wages high, as the present
claim is, there should be some guarantee
that labor will get the benefit.
We have asked frequently, and Away
in vain, for reference to the clause in the
tariff act which compels the protected
employer to pay higher wages in return
for the bounty which he receives. He
may be able to do it, but is there a case
on record where manufacturer paid, as
rule, more than the current rate Of
wages? And are not wages in the pro-
tected industries notoriously the lowest in
the country?
In the republican sham revision in 1873;
the duty on iron ore was raised. We're tn,
miners wages advanced and maintained
The duty on pottery was increased 10 pc
cent, and the potters' wages were soon re
duced 10 per cent. Mr.. d. H. Chamber
lam has challenged contradiction of hi:
assertion that "every tariff we have ever
had which increased duties has been fol
lowed by reduced wages"
1t is not just to leave the protection
alleged to be provided for labor to tn,
whim or the avarice of the employer. Lee
the law require the amount of the duty tt
be added to the wages of the workmen
That would very soon break up the rine
of rich monopolists that is now defending
war duties against reduction.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1888-10-25
Protecting the Rich.

From the The Hartford Telegram.
Let the poor lookout for themselves.
This is the policy of the republican party
of to-day, as every man of common sense
can see at glance.
On the other hand there is no stronger
argument in favor of the democratic
policy of tariff reduction than that af-
forded by the history of the war taxation.
One by one republican congresses relieved
corporations and rich men of the burdens
imposed upon them, railroads, banking
business, large incomes were successfully
exempted from the war tax. But the
democratic proposition to lessen the bur
dens that fall upon all the people has
aroused the most virulent opposition
from the republican party. The senator
al tariff bill, faithful to republican policy,
seeks to tighten, the load upon Injuries
and monopolies, but gives nothing of re-
lief, comfort or encouragement to the
masses.
Now we come to the subject of the sur
plus in the treasury that is increasing at
the rate of millions every month, and as
to the proper means of disposing of it
and stopping future accommodations. We
say take it off taxes paid for necessar-
les of the poor mans house. The repub-
lican party says: "Buy our outstanding
bonds at premium of from 80 to 40 per
cent" Mr.. Harrison in each of his late
speeches has emphatically announced that
as his policy.
Who owns these bonds that Mr.. Harri.
son proposes to buy at this immense pre-
MUM? Not the producers of the country,
not the man who earns from one to two
dollars day, which it takes to support
his family. These people would reap no
beneficial results from buying up the
| bonds at premium with the surplus they
have paid the taxes to accumulate, but
it will go direct into the Golfers of the
capitalists. The Vanderbilts, the Goulds,
the Astors, the Carnegies friend.
At one time Mr.. Vanderbilt bought
$50,000,000 of per cent bonds. They
are now held by his family. Let us sup
pose for a moment that Mr.. Harrison's
plan of buying the bonds at 80 per cent
premium should be put in force. How
long would it be before Vanderbilt'f
executors would turn this $50,000,000 into
the treasury and receive therefor 1865, 000,-
900 of the treasury surplus, thus putting
into the Golfers of this rich family $15,000,-
600 of profit that was wrenched from the
people by paying 10 cents pound duty
on the raw wool their clothes and blankets
are made of, and 219 cents pound on all
the sugar they use.
We might multiply these articles on
which the republican tariff is filching
money from the poor to put in the pockets
of the rich to an indefinite extent, but we
have cited enough to induce our readers
to look into the subject themselves, and
when then have done so we feel assured
that they will be convinced that it is to
the democratic party that the masses
must look for protection, and that the re-
publican party is only striving to protect
the rich, who are able to protect them
selves.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1888-10-25
The Ways OF Combines"

From the New Y Ork Times
The workmen who have been thrown
out of employm ent at the beginning OF the
cold season by the closing of two or three
of the sugar trusts factories-in order
that "the proportion of sugar to the con-
sumption may be reduced" as the manager
of one of the closed factories frankly ex-
plains--may be interested in the announce
ment that within the last twelve months
the trust has declared five dividends of 2
per cent each upon its inflated capital of
$5O,O00,O00. And the people Of the
United States, who must procure sugar
from this great combine" and pay the
price fixed by it, will also be interested in
this evidence of the prosperity of those
who have deprived them of the benefits of
competition in the manufacture and sale
of a necessary article of food.
When the trust was formed the value
of the property put into the pool was esti-
mated to be from $15,0OO,OO0 to 100000
900, but it was capitalized in trust certif-
Gates at very much larger sum. In
February last the par value of the certifi-
Gates outstanding was $45,000,OOO.. 1t ap-
pears now to be $50,000,00O. 1t is the
custom of trustmakers to initiate capital
by allotting certificates far in excess of the
value of the property of the corporations
taken in. The allotments in the case of
the cottonseed oil trust we're in some in
stances three and even four for one. Five
dividends of per cent each upon the in
fated capital of S5O,0O0,0o0 are equal,
therefore, TO dividend of about % per
cent on the actual investment.
The trust is making very comfortable
profits. comparison OF the present
prices of raw and refined with those of one
year ago indicates that much larger divi-
dends might have been made. An advance
of cent pound beyond a price thai
allows a reasonable profit for refining
would yield about $31,O00,000 year il
applied to the entire consumption in thiI
country.

mile, while in 1887 it was only little over
seven-tenths of what it was twenty-five
years ago. There have been reductions
made in the interval in the railroad
charges of Great Britain, but certainly
nothing to compare with this.
IL Is interesting to notice that the chief
freight business of the railway systems of
the United Kingdom is the trsnsportatiC n
of coal, iron ore and other minerals. The
amount thus carried last year was 193,000,-
600 tons, while there were carried of gen.
eral merchandise 100000 ons.-St,
Louis Railway Register.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1888-10-25

There has never been in democratic
legislatures any opposition whatever to
liberal provisions for the colored educa-
tional and charitable state institutions.
These institutions are voluntarily estab-
lisned and supported by democrats. The
party is in the ascendant by overwhelm-
ing majorities, and does not have to make
these liberal provisions through any con-
sideration of party needs or party policy.
The party has no thought of presently
retaining the colored people from repub-
lican control. The sole object has been
to enlighten the race and fit the colored
people for the duties and res possibilities
of their position.-Galveston News, Dem.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1888-10-25

Mr.. Blaine's third speech on trusts
establishes a third distinctive idea which
he entertains on the subject. First he
considers them "largely private affairs;'
next, 'largely state affairs;" and now they
are peculiarly democratic affairs. These
successive steps in the evolution of an
opinion photograph the exigencies of the
acknowledgements Republican, Dem.

The franking privilege is abominably
abused by members of congress and by
rascals who forge the names of members of
congress in order to distribute campaign
literature broadcast in the country at the
public expense. The way to cut this cor
rupt practice up by the root would be to
abolish the franking privilege. Long ex-
perience has shown that it is privilege
that cannot be entrusted to the average
congressman with any guarantee of its
honorable use.-Philadelphia Record, Ind.
