Chicago, April 9.-In few days the
forces OF the two major leagues will
be lined up ready to start off the cham,
pionship season of 1907, Next Thurs
day. April II, the leagues will make
their bows to the public for another
campaign and the pace from that to
the finish will DO furious.
Stranger things have happened than
that the two Chicago clubs should
again win the flags in the National
and American leagues, and again meet
each other in the contest for the cham
pionship of the world. From a COM
parison of the contenders in each
league, the ante-season dope" looks
strong for just this result. Cast up
the chances OF the National league
first. With the exception OF the New
York Giants, no club in that organ
ization looks, on paper, strong enough
to beat. the Chicago Cubs out of first
place, and the less of Mike Donlin to
McGraws team greatly weakens its
chances. Aside from these two clubs,
there APPEARS none in the National
league capable of maintaining the gait
the Cubs can set. Pittsburg is scarce
" as strong'as, last year, while Phila-
t1elphia appears stronger.
Where the other clubs will finish
will probably be a matter of baseball
luck. Accidents might change the
face OF things generally. Brooklyn,
with a pair Of heavy sluggers like Tim
Jordan and Lumley, looks good now
for the leadership of, the second divi-
sion, with Cincinnati, Boston and st.
Louis trailing, in what order is imma-
terial.
Three clubs in the American league
look good for the Npennant next fall,
and with luck favoring either is capa-
BILE of carrying off the flag and meet
ing the National league champions in
the fall for the worlds championship.
These three are Chicago, Cleveland
and New York. Chicago is the cham

Denver. appointed by President
Grant one of the territorial judges

GOLDFIELD. Dec. 9.-The Miners
Upi1n has issued the following state
nent OF it's side OF the controversy:
In order to remove any misunde"-
standing from the minds of those
who wish fairly to investigate the
present trouble and to Offset the de-
liberate misstatements of those who
represent the Mine Owners Asso-
citation, let it be plainly understood
THAT the miners do not re-
fuse to accept cashiers checks simply
because those checks are unusual,
but they do demand that the employ
ers of labor shall take back those
checks within reasonable time and
guarantee their value as medium OF
exchange.
'2-Mine owners have absolutely
refused, after having been given
every opportunity to do what is right,
to guarantee that the paper issued
by them in payment of their employ
ers' wages will be secured by the
product of the miners labor, by the
property of the mine owners or by
any tangible or legitimate security
"3-That the cashiers checks is
sued in the town of Goldfield are not
legal tender and until they are Sc
cured by something more tangible
than the word of a mere private citi-
zen they cannot be considered legi-
innate equivalent of wages for labor
performed.
"4-That many mining companies
have given the strike committee a
satisfactory guarantee in this matter
and that in all such cases the men
have returned to work.
"5-That as showing to what ex-
tent the cashiers checks of this town
can be regarded as worth their face
value, an advertisement has already
appeared in an evening paper Offer
ing to pay a cash discount for the
checks.
"6-That a number of the business
men of the camp have Endorsed the
action of the Miners Union.
THAT the present fight is not
| for cash, but for a medium of ex-
| change on this town that will fulfill
| all the legitimate requirements Of
cash and will not be discounted tC
the injury of its possessors.
"S-That if the mine owners wan
peace they have only TO do that which
they are legally required to do
guarantee the wages of their EN-
ployes and that until they do this
they will be regarded as the aggres
sors in this fight.

Miners union continued to rule the
camp by the methods and despotism
of the Western Federation of Miners,
now so well known to the world.
The owners and operators of the
camp have endeavored to live in
peace and harmony with the union
to the present time, have granted
the highest rate of wages paid in
the world. conceded most unreason-
able demands as to the methods of
work and even consented that their
mines might be robbed of their rich
