Locally the situation never looked more
promising. The Omaha fan is the most
faithful in the country and always has his
eye on the coming season. He doesn t
waste time with mistakes Of the past, al
though he keeps ever fresh the glory Of
bygone days and is always looking ahead
to a repetition Of triumphs that shall never
fade The balmy days Of January have
made him long for the coming Of April,
when he will be allowed to see the Rourke
tribe cavort in glee across the field in prac-
tice, preliminary to the opening Of the reg
ular season, which will start in May. The
schedule meeting will soon be held at Des
Moines, and then will come the official an
nouncement Of plans for the league for the
season. One or two points Of interest are
under discussion among them a scheme TO
break the long jumps TO Colorado. 1t is
proposed that games shall be played at
Grand Island, kearney and Hastings dur
ing the season, which will enable a rest
on the way, may help pay railroad fare,
and surely viii do much TO foster an inter
est in base ball that cannot help but be Of
benefit in the long run The Colorado trip
is a great bugbear to the valley teams, for
the last two seasons have proven very ex-
pensive on this line. Omaha has suffered
more than any of the others, and Rourke
is anxious that some arrangement be made
that will overcome the deficit. Last season
his visits to Colorado cost him s., 300 more
than he took in. and this is quite an item
in the profit and loss account of a base ball
team. With downtown park in Pueblo.
better attendance is expected there, and it
is hoped that Denver will be revived so
that paying crowds will show up there.
Lincoln Will surely be a better proposition
than St Joseph, and Sioux City and Des
Moines are certain to be good as they
wepe last season. All Of which makes the
Western prospects quite as bright as could

Getting ready,

The gossip Of the game stin partakes some
thing Of the political nature, and the echoes
OF the league meetings reverberate 10 some
extent, but the preparations for spring

within short time the game itself will

relief to those who are really interested
in base ball and do not care about the
petty squabbles Of a lot Of the ambitious
gentlemen who love to hear the sound Of
their own voices.

Cunning Case to Osceola.

Day Dunning, indicted on five differ
ent counts for fraudulent banking, will
secure change of venue. This was
decided by the court and counsel for
the state and defendant on Tuesday
evening. Although it is not yet mat
ter of record, it is we'll understood that
the case will be sent to Osceola for trial
and the case is set for the November
term, but continuance to another term
possible.
The three counties considered were
Union, Decatur and Clarke. The case OF
Clyde Dunning was tried in Creston,
and probably for this reason Union
comfy was passed. The attorneys for
Mr.. Cunning would have been we'll
pleased to have had the case sent to
Creston. Decatur county is the home
of V. R. McGinnis, one of the attorneys
for the state, and this probably ac-
counts for the case not being sent to
Leon. A fair and impartial trial with
out local prejudice can doubtless be
secured at Osceola.-Mt. Ayr Record.

and direction of travel to the Portland
Journal, for it's protOPes. The object of
the Journal in providing the trip it did
in the way it did, was to advertise it
self, to attract attention to itself. It
could do this by arousing interest in
the great reading public in its proposal.
In selecting the place of travel it was
natural that one should be selected
which would arouse interest. There
were plenty of other trips that would
not have been more expensive to the
paper. But it naturally selected the
one that would interest the great
est number of it's constituency. In
its judgment, therefore, there was more
general interest in Oregon i'm trip to
HTwaii than i'm trip to any other
available place. The reason why there
was this pre-eminent interest, it can
scarcely be doubted, was because Joe
Cohen took the band to Portland last
year. The band has proven one of our
best advertisements. There is every
reason to believe that in the wider
field of its proposed tour this summer
it will yield promotion results in pro-
portion. This may the more confident
ly be expected, because guided by the
experience gained last year, Mr. Cohen
will advertise the band better and be
able to attract even more attention to
1t The band ought to prove one of our
best assets.
