ANOTHER CHAMPION.

Another newspaper rushes valiant.
~ TO the support f the Kansas City
Journal baseball Reporter. II Is the
Arizona Republican.
The Republican maintains that the
flights OF fancy taken by the ambi.
tious young man who launches forth
into the circumamhlen, baseball atmos-
phcre OF the wings OF the morning Of
life are nearly allied TO genius and
then il proceeds to evolve this as a
specimen:
"Chaw Sullivan ambled 10 the plate.
moistened his mitis, set The man on
the slab doddering With q bad eye, al.
lowed a good one 10 &c, past. then got
hot because q roald spectator sng-
gested blinders for his lamps and
soaked an ouishooi into the atmos,
phere with such villain zest that II Is
still mixed with the rings OF Saturn.
chaw came home in a walk and the
fans went TO the hinkie, while this
outfield frisked In the left garden Tor
the lost one"
And the leading paper of Arizona
proceeds TO discourse upon the happy
conceits born of necessity. the beau
tifui imagery. the rich metaphors and
breathing figures that are enriching
the language as a result Of baseball.
And the Republican appears to
mean II all and not to know that
baseball English has become the sil.
Hest. most unnatural, forced and OK.
aggerated language that has ever
made ridiculous the pages OF an Amer
lean newspaper.

CHICAGO AND THE STREET RAIL.
WAYS.

Mayor Dunno has opened negotia.
tions for the Chicago street car lines
and has a fair chance of getting them
ut what the railways consider reason
able prices, but after he gets them
what viii he do with Them? Chicago
has the w%aterworks on it's hands, and
the Tribune Of that city points out a
long list OF defects In the management.
The equipment Is %antlquated and in.
adequate" In ''one.third OF the city
there Is difficulty In supplying water
above the second floor OF dwellings,"
by reason OF a diversion OF the
profits OF the department. the service
is twenty years behind the tines"
"collestions of assessment are $500. 900
In arrears" the improvement Of the
system is hindered by political consid.
erations;" and IL will cost at least
$685. 900 900 TO put the system in decent
shape.
Under such a state Of things, there
Is a bad chance that Mayor Dunno can
run the railways better than The pro-
~fessionals wro have served an appren.
ticeship to this work. affirms the st.
Louis Globe-Democrat. II Chicago has
failed In its waterworks ownership 1t
Is a little rash in rushing into the
ownership Of The railway system,
which will call for more money, more
Skill and more operatives In its man
agement than the ~waterworks demand.
These are points that will Suggest
themselves to unbiased, intelligent
persons in and out Of Chicago. The
complaints Of inadequate street car
service which are made now stand a
chance to be multiplied several times
when Mayor Dunne's appointees get
control. The mayor has the audacity
OF his convictions. He Is living up to
the promises Of his platform and to his
own pledges IN the stump. II Is 10
