BASE Ball
MOVEMENT
GOES ON

The baseball movement is progress
sing very nicely, number having
taken membership in liberal way
TINS week already, but action can not
be too quick in raising all the nee
essary amount. 1t matters not al
this time who will be the manager.
so much as it does that all the stock
be subscribed 80 thH an organization
can be perfected in time for the next
meeting at Pittsburg. That a
capable manager will be chosen after
that Is done no one has the slight
est doubt, whether is be Camden
Sommers or some one else.
Along this line the Pittsburg
Gazette very nicely explains the adj
vantages of the league movement as
follows:
The Pennsylvania, Ohio and West
Virginia league, which is constituted
Of leading Independent towns, fills a
much-needed want. Never in the
history of Independent baseball in
this section has an organization been
effected that looks so promising for
success as the one organized last
week. For years the clubs have been
gong along in their own way, and
many times the going was very rough
and troublesome to the managers.
The organization OF the association
last year under the name of the Ohio
and Pennsylvania league. was a
good thing for the game, but it did
NOT benefit the local clubs much.
Those in Ohio derived the most
benefits. Now, however, the clubs
around Pittsburg and the best at a
distance have Joined hands, and all
are confident of enjoying success.
The feature of the new league,
which argurs for success, Is the fact
that the jumps are sfgfF and will not
entail an expenditure of much
money, for railroad fares. 1t is not
far from East Liverpool to Wash
.ington and Waynesburg. and is is
comparatively a-sfert distance from
these towns to Uniontown, /. which
makes a good stopovcr before going
to Fairmont, and Clarksburg in
West Virginia. The West Virginia
towns viii play Sunday ball, al
though it is very probable those in
PENNSYLVANIA will not. The man
agers are not warm for national pro-
lection. They think they can at
tain az many good results by playing
independently as under protection.
They will, however, honor all con
tracts. All the clubs that were in
business last year have good players.
which will form the nucleus for win
ming teams. The advent Of Union
town on theicifcait is pleasing to all
In the game. In James Gronninger
md Morgan Bowman. who are to
manage the team, the town win have
two gentlemen who are exponents Of
clean baseball, and this alone will in
still confidence in the townspeople,
and particularly those who will back
the club.

Every recognized authority on So
