finished the season in New Orleans. He will be field captain of the 1905 team, and if the entire Southern league was threshed over a better man could not be found.
 For third base there is f7Tsch For a good while after the season closed. 1t looked like Tamsett would fill that position for O'Brien. Last week, however, the Sporting News un- der a Memphis dateline stated that Tamsett would play with Lew Whis- tier in 1905, having already signed with Memphis. Now this may or may not be fact, but in talking of the Tamsett matter before he left Montgomery Manager O'Brien said that he thought he would get him. He said. however that Tamsett made 1t rule never to sign a contract until early Spring, ad- ding that If Tamsett was going to sign with anyone else he would certainly let him know beforehand. Tamsett may have notified O'Brien before this that he was going with Memphis. but if he has done so, OBrien has not noti- fled Major Winters about 1t.
 Whether Tamsett is lost to Montgom- cry or not for next season there are others" and O'Brien is pretty sure to land a fast man for third base long be- fore the crack of bats is heard at the Ol luc 60d- son.
 For short Kid Busch is of course re- served and is entirely too valuable a man to let anybody else get a chance at him. He will be used as a utility player and a consistent. hard hitting. fast fielding shortstop will be signed. The man for this position O'Brien has virtually signed. He was with one of the crack teams of the New England league during the season just closed. but for obvious reasons O'Brien does not wish to give his name.
 News has been received that welch. the crack pitcher of the Savannah team who finished the season live Null lane with the Pretzels. has been sold to Charlie Frank and will wear a Peli- can uniform in 1905. Just after this announcement came the statement that Welch had been drafted by one of the big league teams. so Charlie Franks hold on him will be short. It was hoped that Welch would be in Mont gomery in 1905, arrangements having

NEXT YEARS PLAYERS
OOMiNICk MULLANEY WILL BE
 WITH MONTGOMERY.
Johnnie Duffey May Be Also Secured By Tom O'Brlen-Ike Durrett
 Drafted By the St. Paul

Dominick Mullaney will play baseball with Montgomery next season and Johnnie Duffey may also wear a local uniform.
 Muilaney, it will be remembered, finished the season with the Pretzels, Tom o'Brien getting his hook on the fast youngster as soon as the South Atlantic season was over. Mullaney's s contract with the Savannah team of the South Atlantic league expired at the end of the season and he had no re- serve clause attached to it. For busi- ness reasons Mullaney wished to re- main in the good books of the Savan- nah people, and when the impression Sloated around that town that he was to be a member of the Savannah team in 1905 he did the clam act, neither af- firming or denying 1t.
 In the meantime when the Southern league season ended and the Pretzeis ldisbanded Mullaney, in the presence of IAajor Winters and Tom O'Brien signed @ Montgomery contract for the season Uf l905. Since then the Savannah lpapers have printed stories about iMullaney signing with a big league team for next season, Philadelphia. From this it would seem that Mullaney has stated pretty explicitly that he would not be with Savannah next sea- son. and it may be stated positively Ithat he will play with Montgomery. The impression made by Mullaney on 1ocai fans was possibly more favorable t4han was ever made by a guardian of ithe Initial bag in Montgomery. He is ams fast as lightning on the lines. fields shis position with the ease and grace of )A veteran. is almost a 300 hitter and to Hap it all is young. ambitious and hard lhworlker.

| already been made to draft him. A letter was received from OBrien yesterday morning in which he stated l that Jack Lee had written him saying | that he would sign a Montgomery con tract for 1905. Brandt. Geo. Stultz and | Gardner are reserved and of course will report here in the early Spring. Clark and Manners are also reserved, com pleting the infield and making it a very fast one.
 One week ago from yesterday, the drafting season of the big league clubs closed. the drafting season of the class "A" clubs beginning on that
 date and continuing until November 15. Montgomery has been extremely
 fortunate in not having any of the members of the 1904 Pretzels drafted
 by the leaguers, but now comes the first break.
 In the last bulletin of the National Association Is contained piec of news that will be read with regret by
 local faEs. Ike Durrett, one of the hardest hitters in the Southern league and one of the mainstays of the local team has been drafted by St. Paul and
 will be with the Saints In the Ameri- can Association in 1905. Montgomery
 gets $500 for the big right fielder,
 $250 immediately and $s50 in the Spring. but this will by no means fill
 the void of this premier swatsman. The rest of the outfield-Molesworth
 and Delehanty-are reserved and so
 far neither of them have been drafted While he has not actually signed him
 1t Is almost certain that O'Brien will
 land Johnnie Duffey. the hard hitting Birmingham outfielder, and with
 Frank Delehanty in right. Carleton
 Molesworth in center and Johnnie Duff fey In left the local outfield will be one
 of the swiftest fin the business.
 Montgomery will have a team to be
 proud of. It will be fast enough to go
 in any company from the jump. It will
 certainly take a good team at that for
 the Soutern league in 1905 promises to
 be just about the fastest minor organi-
 zation in eXistance.

Samuel Hill, of Washington, re-
Gently gave the agricultural commit
tee of the senate a sharp talk on the
subject of good roads, and incidental-
ly made'a very strong point in up
holding the claim of farmers on the
government for assistance. Inas-
much, said the Washingtonian, as
the farmers ars paying 80 per cent OF
the taxes, they are entitled to some
relief in the shape of aid in road max
ing. OF all people the farmer is the
least successful in the escaping taxes.
1t is easy to assess his property, and
there is no doubt ne is d1ing more
than his share, when the amount he
pays is compared with what others
pay 1t is nothing more, therefore,
than plain Justice that class which
bears so heavy a burden is entitled
TO consideration when it asks for help
in the Improvement of the ordinary
highways, SO indispensable for the
comfort, advancement and prosperity
of all the people.

ROOSEVELT AND SMITH.

flattering editorial proposes the name
of VIM. Alden Smith for Vice-presi-
dent. In closing the article says;
For Years there has been close
intimacy between President Roose-
Welt and William Alden Smith. The
congressman from the fifth has much
of that vigor and independence OF
thought that characterizes the presi-
dent, and is admired by him. II
would be particularly appropriate
this year to nominate THE Gentle.
man from Michigan on this the
fiftieth anniversary of the birth Of
the republican party in this state
Let us therefore, hope that the fates
decree that the Republican nationa
ticket for 1904 VIII read Roosevelt
and Smith.
