What Al Haupt Says.

In an interview with Manager
Haupt, of the Natchez team, which has
just finished series of games here,
he said that he thought the present
policy of the Pine Bluff association
was an erroneous one and that the
association has much to lose and lit
tie to gain by such a policy. He
said that he gave the entire twenty
passes allotted to Natchez to the
newspapers. and that he always ex-
racts to do so. Haupt is the man
who. at the league meeting, requested
that the original number of ten passes
be raised to twenty, and through his
efforts a twenty-pass resolution was
adopted at the league meeting on the
18th of February. Mr.. Haupt stated
that he had all the newspaper courte-
sizes that were necessary and that he
has received more than he had expect
ed, and that he never intended nor
would he ever give out, passes to ven
doris of popcorn or refreshments, Or
to directors, when they were needed
for the press, and especially when
the resolution was passed under a

Distribution of Passes.

In the distribution Of the twenty
passes, Judge Grace has issued twelve
CT these to the twelve directors. Why
the directors should Da any more en-
titled to passes than the stockholders
who are not directors, the Graphic
is unable to see, and the fact that the
directors voted unanimously to for
felt their passes shows that they take
sensible view of the matter, and
are only prevented from doing what
they believe to be right by the op-
position of the associations president,

fensive to the press as it is possible
for him to be His actions indicate
that his endeavors to make himself

will sustain every other part. YET

matter of passes to the press was
brought up. The Graphic has it on
the statement of two of the direc-
to- that the board unanimously
agreed to surrender their passes in
order that they might be distributed
among the newspapers, but that the
president of the association SO siren
uously opposed it that the directors
acceded to his wishes and as one di-
to run the ball games one season with
out the support of the newspapers"
The board of directors of the Pine
Bluff Baseball association may SUBJ
init to the bulldozing tactics Of its
president, but the Graphic doesn't
have to submit, and is not going to
submit AS the board of directors
have decided to run one seasons
games without the aid of the news
papers" just to submit to the arbi-
-trary action of its president, the
Graphic is not going to force its sup
port on the association 1t is going
to report the league games as they
are played, as matter of news to
It's readers who enjoy reading base
ball news, and it will also print any
other news with reference to the play
eTs or matters pertaining to the league
that it deems of sufficient concern to
interest baseball enthusiasts, but any
announcement of games to be played
that are made in its columns will be
paid for at advertising rates. The
Graphic is willing for the association
to run one seasons games without
its support. The Graphic assures
its readers and the association that it
IS entirely willing to pay for what
it gets and let the association pay
for it's advertising if it desires any.
The Graphic has no kick to make on
that proposition at all, and nothing
to lose.

of passes and the press.
Vicksburg and Pine Bluff.

AS will be seen from the foregoing,
the only cities within the league
whc@e Z cc2temptuous littleness char
actelizes the policy toward the press
is at Pine Bluff and Vicksburg, and
at Vicksburg the American, like the
Graphic, has resented it.
The Graphic has taken it's stand
in this matter because it considered
it the only honorable thing for it to
do under the circumstances. The
president of the association has said:
"D-n the Graphic. We don't need
its help" A director said to the
Graphic that the directors had "decid-
ed to run one seasons games with
out the aid Of the press" The Graph
lc could not now give the association
any further support and maintain it's
dignity as a respectable newspaper
which it will endeavor to do at all
times, regardless Of what any per-
son may think, say or do. The Graph
ic, unsolicited, gave the association it's
loyal support until it was given to
understand that it's support was not
appreciated, and it is willing to let
matters go along as at present, if it
is the desire of the association. One
thing is certain, and that is that the
Graphic has too much self respect to
make any overtures for change IN
the situation. What baseball news it
hereafter prints will be purely for
the qualification of it's readers, and
the fact that newspaper cannot afford
to wholly ignore the news feature
Of the baseball business, is the peg
upon which the president of the as
sociation has hanged his hope of
forcing the newspapers into keeping
their columns open to all kinds of
free advertising of baseball while he
persists in policy of contempt for
the press.

ED. American" +"

The American, which is the leading
newspaper in the Cotton States league,
says editorially:
'"Fhe Pine Bluff newspapers have
refused to boom baseball in that town
because the league managers have
offered them but one pass each to
the games in exchange for about 5000
worth of advertising per week 1t is
little better in this town, where two
passess are doled out in exchange for
perpetual booming of the game. The
American applauds the action of the
Pine Bluff papers and follows suit,
and the city editor has his orders to
give but the brefest mention of the
games to be played and the results.
The advertising columns of the Amer
lean are open, and as the baseball or
ganization is for money-making pur-
poses pure and simple, baseball ad-
vertising will be charged at the reg
ular rates.

e(ctto
at the hands of the local baseball peo-
pie
Commenting on the treatment of the
Pine Bluff press. the Advocate says
editorially:
''At the meeting of the Cotton
States league management earlier in
the present season the Baton Rouge
representatives in the league argued
that whatever else was done on the
subject of passes, that ample provi-
sion should be allowed for the press
They made point of this, for they
we'll knew that the press did SER
vice to baseball that could not be
compensated for in money. There is
never a day that all sorts of space
and the highest priced advertisements
are not required to boost the sport
Every newspaper man is naturally
more or less baseball crank and it
is labor Of love for him to write on
the subject.
The printer sets up extra lines;
tables of rule and figure work are
required; the foreman, carrier and
all have share in the good work and
it is a pleasure to all of them.
.Of course this does not mean that
the whole Office is to be deadheaded
at the park. But reasonable court
esy on these lines. a ticket OCCASION
ally to one and then another OF the
force makes them feel that when they
come early to the Office and stay a
shade late after hours in order to get
IN full, good report and the latest
data on the subject Of the diamond,
their services are appreciated Our
managers at Baton Rouge have al
ways shown great liberality and
thonghtfulness on this point They
appreciate the press just as the press
appreciates them But it did not take
Arkansas long to get into a squabble
with its local press. This is Pine
Bluffs first year out, and while the
papers there have been giving about
half their space and lying like
bunch of royal princes about Black
burn and his team, they were kindly
honored with one single pass each
for the season. This they promptly
returned and since then they have
filled the baseball space in their col
umns with patent medicine ADVERTISE
mentS.
This is unfortunate for all hands
concerned, and it is to be hoped that
the baseball management will see it's
error and mend its way

The Real Benef:ciaries.

The real beneficiaries Of the sea
sons games, if the season is success
ful from pecuniary standpoint, are
the association stockholders. If there
are any dividends they go to the
stockholders, which includes the pres
ident and board of directors. The
newspapers don't get one cent Of prof
its, if there be any, except the divi-
the newspapers. The Graphic sub
Scribed for two shares of stock, not
for the mere reason alone of aiding
the association, but also because it
Believed that the stock would pay q
dividend, and it believed that with
such management as the good sense
Of the board of directors would dictate
that the stock would pay handsome
dividend
The president Of tie association
seems to be imhued with the idea
that it is the duty Of the newspapers
to howl themselves hoarse in making
the seasons games success, pay
for the privilege of doing it, and all
for the purpose of making the stock
holders a profit on their Investments
The newspapers are not only ex-
pected to write up the home games
fully, and to do all they can to make
the games a success, but they are ex-
pected to keep the interest of their
readers awakened by printing great
deal about the games that are played
especially games played away from
home by the Pine Bluff team, and
when it is remembered that only one
half the games played by the local
seen that 80 per cent. of the work
expected Of the newspapers is purely
without compensation, even though
everybody on the paper, from devil 10
editor, had passes. and is done chief
Iy to keep up the interest Of the
home people in the game so that they
will turn out largely when games are
played at home, and so that the shares
held by the stockholders may be made
profitable
The Graphic does not believe that
there is single stockholder in the
association but who believed at the
time he subscribed for the stock that
it would pay him nice dividend. The
president of the association sanguine-
Iy talked about a so per cent. diyi-
aend-not less, perhaps more. If the
directors are to enjoy dividends, why
should they have passes to the excIu-
