The outlook for baseball for 1898 IS
brighter than it has been for Eve years,
and this may be taken for all it is
worth To be sure it is the custom of
managers and players to say every
spring that ''the game will take fresh
boom" things never looked brighter" :"
etc, but they have never made such
predictions with as much reason and
right as this year.
just why this is 30 will be told bet
ter in the managers and players own
words. But, taking everything into
consideration, it is hard to believe any
thing else. There are three main rea-
sons on which to base the assumption
First-The presidential campaign is
over with, and, little as some may think
1t, the baseball season is as much affect
ed by this quadrennial event IS the
theaters and business generally
Second-There is only one association
of clubs-the National league-and
competition will be less and the interest
in the great contest proportionately
greater.
Third-There will be only one cham
pionship season. The experiment Of
two seasons was tried last year and, as
every follower of the game can tell it
its own way the first series, and another
club in the second. Tho season was
much too long.

/ think the result of the coming sea-

the New York and Chicago teams II
they are playing good ball and their
cities support them well there is every
reason to believe that the season will
be good all over the country. Baseball
would prosper better without any New
York club than with poor one, for
other clubs and the baseball patrons IN
general get their stimulus not only
from the Giants good work but from
the influence of the metropolitan papers
as well. 1t has been my observation
that the cities that have won the cham
pionship one or two seasons have
dropped completely out or lost interest
in the game to such an extent that they
did not support their club.
They have reached their limit when
