PhIIinpIne LegisIation.

We have already expressed our dissent
from the practice of putting important
legislation into riders on appropriation
bills. IN ,he case of a measure. like that
proposed by Senator Spooner. the purpose
of which is to surrender the legislative
power of Congress in the Philippines 10
the President. and TO make him their ire
sponsibIe master. ruler. and owner. the
abuse becomes not only vicious but fnIol-
cradle
An imminent necessity might perhaps
excuse Democrats in Congress for per
hitting some such matter as the proposed
Cuban declaration 10 be hustled 10 enact
ment on the back of the Military Appro-
prIation bill; but the scheme 10 create
Mr.. Mckinley Emperor Of the Colonies
and. incidentally, TO place it in his power
10 divide the public lands. mines. fran
chises, and utilities of the Philippines

ploiters and Iooters. IS a different and Tar
gFaver matter. We are glad, therefore. to
know that the Spooner resolution viii be
defeated if there IS Democratic strength
and endurance enough in the Senate to
prevent vote on the Army Appropriation
bill before the end Of he present Con
gress.

(the largest man in the league) and
when Mertes picked the ball up still
Bill was standing on the home plate
having made the circuit. He had won
his own game by the score of 1 to 0.
Just two weeks later he pitched the
same Kind of a game in Chicago and
as in the first game won on a hit after
two men had been retired in the four
teenth INNING. This time when he
reached home" he picked up his bat
and stepped to the plate as though he
could repeat the hit if necessary But
like so many others still Bill could
not stand prosperity and took to drink
ing. He was fined several times but
that did not keep him from wetting his
whistle quite frequently with the am
her colored fluid, and he was dropped
from the league. He has since stopped
drinking and recently passed the exam
ination for a position on the police
force in the Queen City.

The National League magnates have
practically granted the Players Pro
tective association all the concessions
that they asked. But they got back at
the Players association by demanding
that the diamond luminaries remain
staunch and true to the clubs govern
ed by the national agreement and not
jump to the American League. The
committee appointed to meet President
thinner of the Players Protective as
ISOLATION had a long discussion with
him and made all the concessions ask
ed Tor but he refused 10 act IOr tHe

the club owners so far as he was en-
powered to do so. His formal written

Athletics are again becoming promi-
nent in FL Paso. One thing that FL
Paso mas needed for long time is a
first class gymnasium with all kinds OF
aDua-atus and a first class instructor
The prospects are now brighter than
ever before to secure such a gymna-
sim, Not since the Young Men
Christian association closed almost
two years ago has there been a place
wnere d man could go for exercise.
There is a movement on foot at
nreseni TO establish first class gym
uaSiifln on the second floor OF the Nat
atori7im where the members would
have. the advantage of the baths ana
swimming pool Mr.. Bailey stated
this morning that he had some little
apparatt!s for gymnasium and would
get all that was needed. Or should the
Young men form an Athletic assocla-
ton he would rent the building to
them and do all in his power to help
the promoters in the scheme.
The proposition now being discussed
is 10 form an Athletic association and
rent a suitable room, probably the sec
ond floor of the Natatorium and place
in IL a first class gymnasium. the ex-
penses 70 be paid by monthly dues
from each member. the affairs to be
placed in the hands of an executive
committee of well known business men.
With one hundred members and an
initiation Zee of five dollars there
would be $500 to start with and the as
sociation would be success from the
very start 4 list will likely be started
within the next few days to secure the
necessary number to start the associa-
ton and il should be met with hearty |
support by every business man in Ell
Paso. After short time an instruc-
tor could be employed and the young
men of the city who are tied down to
their work during the day would soon
be in a much healthier condition than
at present.

for FL PaSO at present but 1t is to be
hoped that more material will develop
before the opening of the season. At
present there are only four members
of last years team in III Paso. Captain
Krause. Sullivan. Beali and Jacoby.
Rogers and Ahorn are still in the city
but will leave before the opening of
the season unless they are given some
encouragement to remain. Hackett,
the gentlemanly right fielder who
made so many sensational plays here
last season. has been transferred to
Sierra Blanca and it is feared that he
will not be in FL Paso to again hold
down the right garden. Hackett is
one of the fastest players ever seen in
FL Paso and with proper coaching
could hold his own in fast company.
Charley Irwin. the crack third base
man of last years champions. is en-
p1oyed in Arizona where he will play
this summer. Jim Long the great
south-paw has gone to Clifton. Ari-
IONA. and will do the slab work for
that city this year.
Wattlett the young player, who did
SO much in holding Ell Paso down
when the Roswell team played here
last spring. is in the city but will
leave in a few days for Silver City to
remain. Wattlett is a good player and
would be a welcomed addition to the
Ell Paso team
One thing is certain and that is that
an entire new out field and third
baseman will have to be developed be-
fore Ell Paso can do anything at all.
And now comes the important question
Where will we get pitcher?' Sam
.Bridgers used to be a good man in the
box and with proper training might
again get his good right arm into con-
dition but Sam has not played ball
for several years and it would take him
a long time to get his arm into condi-
ton and even then one man could not
be expected to do all of the pitching.
William Stacker. the well known and
popular tillerman for the hook and
ladder company, should make a great
pitcher. Shack as he is known to
almost ever man in Ell Paso is as quick
as the next one and he has a terrible
whip. Shack pitched one game last
year and his speed was something aw-
full. he lacked control however, and re-
tired. With good coaching and steady
practice Shack would be wonder and
he may be seen in the box this year.
Quite a number of the boys were out
to practice Sunday afternoon and they
had all kinds of fun. But today their
arms are very sore and they will not

rule until after the board of directors
has given it's decision.
The most important concession. per-
haps. is the new option clause Here
tofore a club owner could employ a
young player at a small salary and
compel him. whether he developed in
to a. star or not. to keep on playing
year after year at the same salary. 1t
was optional with the owner to in
crease the salary to fit the service.
Now a player may make a demand for
more money at the end of the first
year. He can be compelled to play at
the same salary the following year but
then if his reasonable, demands be
met he is not free to sign where he
wishes The new clause is great
thing for young players

twelve dollars and eighty-siX cents is

to Ben Johnson and his followers and
they cannot understand why thinner
should do such a thing. Last winter
the National League magnates posi-
lively refused to have anything to do
with the Players association and the
American League took the matter up
and granted them all that they asked
for and thus placed them in posi-
ton to ask for even more from the Ma
tional League which that body has just
granted. 1t is hardly probably that
the players will stand by President
thinner in his recent action.

tuition have made several very import

rule making the pitcher deliver the

latter takes his position at the plate
was adopted. should the pitcher de-
liver the ball to any other place than

delivery. A rule was passed which
penalties one ball against the pitcher
if he fails to deliver the ball to the
batsman within twenty seconds after
the latter has taken his position.
A batsman may not henceforth take
his base if hit by a pitched ball. but
the ball will count as a ball against
the pitcher. Several rules conflicting
with the changes named were stricken
out or changed to conform to the alter
atoms.
Article "a of the constitution was
amended to read. that the board of di-
rectors shall have the power of inflict-

In case of a forfeited game the board
