The base ball season is at hand, and
we are pleased to observe that the
Boston press as usual is devoting its
best braiLs to the philosophy of the
game in general and critical analyses
of the Boston club in particular. The
eloquent and learned Boston Herald
congratulates the Bostonese that
"there seems to be no doubt that the
Boston club is stronger than ever this
year. 1t has at the outset seven pitch
ers, and another in prospect, four
catchers, and two surplus players in
the field outside the batteries" Think
of club with seven pitchers and four
catchers III Boston doesn't win the
pennant this year it will be through
no lack of numerical forces. Already
the Herald sees the cham pionship flag
fluttering from the Bunker Hill monu-
ment, or wherever they run it UP.
ave suppose" it says, STEW careful
observers doubt that the Boston club is
fully a match for any of them. Its
failure to obtain the pennant in 1894
was more an accident than from lack
of capacity. The remembrance of it,
however, tends to excite hopes in the
minds of their opponents, and it will
render the coming games especially
exciting. Base ball was never more
established in public favor than it now
is, and a successful season for it is
confidently predicted"

The EIks' Controversy in Court.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, March 20.-The fac
tional fight in the order of b. p. o. Elks
was brought up for a hearing IN the
United States circuit court to-day before
Judge Hammond Of Tennessee. The fight
is between the jamestown faction and the
Atlantic City faction. The legal contest
is to determine which faction is entitled
TO the books and records of the order
which are now in the hands of the James
town faction. At the trial to-day it was
evident from the start that the James
town faction was relying on technicalities
to prevent the Atlantic City party from
getting the books. They first raised the
question of jurisdiction and apparently
attacking the merits of the case.

Cuba and the United States.

Senator Frye remarked yesterday
that he hoped Spain would assume
such a belligerent attitude that it
would be necessary for us TO GO over
and take possession of Cuba Senator
Frye's utterance will awaken ready
sympathy in the minds of a large
number of Americans Geograph-
ically, commercially, logically Cuba
should belong TO the United States.
Its people are intolerant of Spanish
rule, and because of this fact the island
has always been TO this country a
source of trouble, annoyance and ex-
pense. Whenever the Cubans have a
revolution, which seems TO be about
every other new moon, the United
States is on needles and pins for fear
somebody will do something which
will break our policy of neutrality.
There is no question that the Spanish
rule is of the harshest and most tyran-
ical character, the Cubans endure il
for about so long and then feel that
they would rather be shot down than
endure it any longer Spain as a ma
tion is the meanest on earth. II is a
hard country to deal with diplomat
ically. Ii never Acknowledges that II
has done wrong if it can help II. and
it seldom repairs an injury even after
it has acknowledged it.
For hundred years Cuba has been
in a state of turmoil. The depriva
ton OF political, civil and religious lib
erty, and exclusion from all public
stations, combined with a heavy taxa
tion TO MAINTAIN a standing army and
navy, have resulted in deadly haired
between the native Cubans and tie
