RED HOT BALL TALK.

The Albany Colts when together and
IN practice proved by their playing that
they were the best amateur club in Ore
gon, and ara entitled TO better words
than those from correspondent in a
Lebanon paper. Negotiations were re-
GENTLY pending for game with club at
Lebanon. but on account OF the members
oil The Colts being scattered, several of
the club being away il was given up. A
correspondent in the Lebanon Express
thereupon attacks the club with all the
names at his command, back acting
comments. We give the letter:
Some time ago the Lebanon base ball
team sent the "world renowned Colts.
OF Albany, challenge to play q match
game OF ball, but the challenge was not
accepted by the conceited Colts. They
have been challenged by the Lebanon
boys eight times and they still refuse 10
play.
A few weeks ago Manager Booth of the
home team called upon the manager of
the Colts in Albany, and the manager OF
the latter team told Mr.. Booth that he
would give him game any time he
brought his team down. Now after
making fair and square agreement for
game, Mr. Booth received letter from
WIN Mack, the manager OF the Colts,
stating that il was impossible for them
10 play, as some OF their men were out OF
town. The letter also contains the fol-
lowing paragraph: 81 wish they were
here (meaning the men they claim are
out OF town we would take come of the
eoneeit out OF you fellows" Mr.. Mack
also Gays: I'VE are no, afraid Of any
thing in the state: we can beat anything
in the state"
This thing OF some OF their men being
ont OF town is merely a subterfnge, or
an excuse for not Playing as they are
afraid Of being defeated. II they could
beat anything in the state" why didn't
they play the Lebanon team on the s,h
OF July at Waterloo, when they were Of
iered $40 and their expenses? They
were afraid. rhe Albany Colts are con- .
ards OF the firsi water. Ii they are such
great base ball players Why didn't they
play the Lebanon team when they Offer
ed to play ~ A bAny aud pay their own
expenses
The Albany Colts are champion cow
ards. and champion biowhards instead
OF base bsll players. For putting and
blowing and advertising themselves in
the p2p-Es this team has nc equal on
the Pacific coast. In the face OF the
above iacts this team Is surely place in
= very unenyiab.e position before the
public. Thes should draE 10 their horns
or hack What they claim With actual ex-
perience. and il wougi also he well for
the Albany daily papers 10 quit footing
the horn OF this little insignificant bass
ball team. How can such = team as this
be The champigns Of Oregon.
