The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1900-09-17
roR cLEaNER RAsnRA11

A committee has been appointed by the
players in the large baseball leagues to
wait upon the magnates and ask for GER
tain reforms in methods of management.
1t is explained that some Of the reforms
suggested would, if adopted, result In
greatly lessening the amount of rowdy-
ism, something that has been too prev
alent during the season now near an end
In fact, rowdyism is the particular curse
of the national game, and those in charge
should leave nothing possible undone to
entirely eliminate the disgraceful occur
rences which disgust the spectators and
injure the game.
In nine times out Of ten disturbances
on the ball field begin because a. decis-
ion of the umpire fails to please some
body. Those decided against think it
their duty to argue with the umpire,
while the other side is certain to UNFOLD
the official Even if nothing worse than
a bed.am of words ensues, it makes the
grand stand very tired. as well as doubt
full about the ACCESSIBILITY Of ever again
paying to see a game. But once in a
while fists are used, and ever and anon
an oaken bat argues ON the head of
some one to the effect that the umpire
was wrong.
This sort of business makes the umpire
neither wrong no.. right, and IL not one
case out of a thousand aces ile-revise his
decision. It is a useless waste of time
and temper, and the broken heads and
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1900-09-17

noses that often result testify to the
most useless sacrifice imaginable.
As long as human Judgment is falli-
bic, umpires will fail to please in every
instance, and there will continue to be
occasions when one side or the other
will desire to take exceptions to a ruling.
This might be allowed under regulations
forbidding more than one player to state
the objection, and enforcing dignified
conduct on his part The permission to
''kick might even be limited to such
decisions as are likely to change the for
tunes of the game and the discussion be-
tween the player and the umpire might
be restricted to two minutes of time.
Rules and regulat tons like this, accom-
panied by proper penalties, would quickly
lead to Identification of the rowdies who
create disturbances for the love of it,
without regard for the reputation Of the
game There are very few of these, for
it is probable that custom or something
else leads the majority to join in the dis
turbances over umpires' rulings. The
chronic rowdies, once located, could be
thrown out, to the great beneft Of the
game and the pleasure of the public who
enjoy a clean and gentlemanly contest
on the diamond

prospective, that can be looked for from
the control of the islands, at least during
the present generation, just as did the
succession of Spanish governors and their
parasites who for over two hundred years
plundered and murdered the natives Of
the archipelago to enrich themselves.
Spain as nation derived little gain
to its treasury as will the United States.
But there are those who see great politi-
cal advantage and incidentally great
commercial advantage to come from the
ownership of the islands through the po-
sition which they assure the United
States with reference to the future trade
of the Orient. But right or wrong, the
issue involved for this people in those
opinions are questions which do not af-
feet their immediate, daily lives. The
issues which the trusts have called into
being do; and day by day they grow
more and more a menace to the free
dom and prosperity of this people.
No doubt we owe it to the circumstance
ing organized by the commercial travel
ers that so entirely satisfactory a re-
view has been made by him in his st.
Louis address of the vast dangers which
universally conceded fact that those or
ganzation will contribute money with
out limit in the prevailing campaign to
the prostitution Of the electorate IN the
interest Of Republican success, should
such a course be thought advisable by
Manager Hanna and his subordinates.
No one thinks of denying the >c.ose con-
nection between Republican success and
trust growth and immunity from public
regulation Republican speakers and
writers are giving a wide berth to that
phase of the prevailing campaign. Their
silence and avoidance should be an in
spiration to the Democratic managers.
Sixteen to one as remedy for the trusts
is an anachronism. To raise a great out
cry on the paramount issue" simply re-
acts the function of stop-thief cry for
the Industrial censpirators who have the
commercial welfare of this nation in their
grasp at the present moment
OF the ten million homes of which Mr..
Bryan spoke in his address, there are
not half a million some one or more Of
whose members have not brought home
to them each succeeding day some tangf-
bic experience of the crime against their
prosperity which is involved in the con-
