PROPOSED BASEBALL
LEAGUE IS The BEST SOLUTION
OF the Baseball Situation in North DakOtaGoOd Article Would
Be Furnished the Various Cities and Excellent Support
Expected From All Towns s s

posed to be in favor of this plan as
the following from the Grand Forks
Times would indicate: "Mr Kent
has been called the Father" Of the
old Northern league and knows the.
game from the standpoint Of the
player. manager and high-up sficial.
He was at one time president of the
Northern league. He stated thia
morning that he had not had time
for much thought on the subject of a.
North Dakota circuit to compose such
towns as Devils Lake, Rugby, Minot,
Fargo, Valley City, Bismarck, James
town and Grand Forks, but that in
his opinion the idea was all right. He
has received letters from persons at.
Devils Lake urging that steps be
taken to organize such a league.
From a financial standpoint the
thing looks very goodwill the one
proviso----that the teams stick to the
standard promised and not try to
make Mugsy McGraws men look like
chips from the new block What the
people want is clean ball, played on
its merits, and, moreover, they desire
rather to witness the prowesses Of
those who learned the game on the
corner lots and in the prairie towns
rather than see the disgusting efforts
of the old has-beens.' z

Ball Crank Dan Laxdal is in the
city for few days, visiting the legis-
lative scenes and mixing with the
politicians. Speaking of ball matters,
Mr.. Laxdal stated that in all prob
ability there would be meeting
called shortly for Fargo to consider
the situation and see il a state league
could be organized taking in Fargo,
Valley City, Jamestown, Bismarck,
Minot, Rugby, Devils Lake and Grand
Forks, This would make an eight
team league, which Mr. Laxdal says
is the ideal one to work out suitable
schedules. His idea Is that by in
Guiding these towns there would be
absolutely no expensive railroad
jumps. Commencing at Fargo teams
would work steadily west to Bismarck,
thence over the 500 extension to
Minot and then east to point Of be-
ginning. The mileage from Fargo to
Fargo this way is approximately 500
miles and would make the car fare
practically S. a day on each team. This
would give ball games three times a
week In each town and with suit
able salary limit the expenses would
be very slight as compared with
former years. Ex-President Kent,

of the North Dakota league, is sup

Pacific and Great Northern railroads,
at their own expense, established five
Of these farms and placed them under
the direction of the experiment sta
ton. These farms are located at
Beech, New Salem, the penitentiary,
Lakota and Granville. They COM
prise tracts of 80 to 40 acres farmed
by the owner Of the land upon a sys-
TEN outlined by the station. The
crops belong to the farmer, but he
must take notes Of results and other
data and at the end Of the year he is
paid 500 for his trouble. These lit
tie farms have done a great deal of
good as educators of the farmers in
their vicinity as the system of crop
rotation is vigorously carried out on
them and other improved methods are
used in growing the grain The re-
roads now feel that they have done
their share and have notified the ex-
pertinent station that the expense
will no longer be borne by them, and
for this reason the appropriation is
asked for. President Worst says that
on a pinch he can establish five more
OF the farms with help from other
sources If the legislature will make
the appropriation 81, 500 and those
who have investigated the results at
tanned at the i've farms already estab-
nshed hope the latter amount will be
voted.

Hughes and johnson.

The parallel which has recently
been suggested between Governor
Hughes, of New York, and Governor
johnson, of Minnesota, is worth some
consideration. Neither has had ex-
perience in national affairs, but each
has made his reputation in very re-
cent time as the executive of a State.
Hughes was the only man on his
ticket elected in New York, as John
son has twice been the only man on
his party ticket to win in Mime
sofa. Each found in the insurance
scandals and the succeeding period
OF effort at reform the opportunity
to bring himself into the view of
the whole country. Each has sue
ceeded, despite the handicap of
Legislature hostile to his policies,
in securing enactment of a program
OF effective progressive legislation.
Each is now urged upon his party as
ia good man for presidential consider
alton, because of the belief that
each can carry his home State; and
the guarantee of New York to the
Republicans and Minnesota TO the
Democrats would be well worth
while to the respective parties.
The place of the States in our sys-
tenn of Government is a good deal
discussed in more or less dubious
tone nowadays; but it cannot be de-
MED that the executive chair of a
big State is one of the greatest fields
of opportunity for a vigorous. force
full public man with some ideas that
are worth the while When the peo-
pie seek candidates for the Chief
Executive position they seem natur-
ally to turn to the men who have
been tried in executive service. The
Senate is full of men who are better
known in their home States by the
title of governor" than by that OF
Senator" And what is more, the
proportion of promotions from gov
ernorships to senntorships seems
certain to be larger in future, be-
cause the popular primary laws
which are being so widely adopted
tend to make it almost impossible
for Congressman TO break into the
Senate. The proportion of promo
tions from the lower TO the upper
house is surely destined to become
much smaller in future.

Very Bad Management.

The Democratic organization up in
Pennsylvania is preparing for an
oratorical coup which, apparently,
it believes will have telling effect in
the campaign for election of a State
treasurer. 1t is proposed 10 have
5000 speeches delivered throughout
the State, all on the same day, and
all from the same text: Thou shalt
not steal" The allusion, it hardly
need be stated, is TO the Harrisburg
capitol graft, the investigation of
that interesting affair having dem
onstrated that about sc per cent of
the cost of the States new $4,000
600 statehOusc was graft.
Ordinarily, it would have to be
conceded that this was a right clever
and timely stroke. But in all friend
illness to the Pennsylvania Demo-
Gratis, they should be urged not to
adopt the plan. On mature thought
they will be convinced that the text
is none for appeal to Pennsylvania
audience. Indeed, we opine with all
confidence that such a project will
result in lining up solidly the Re
publican majority of half a million
or thereabouts, and give the Demo
Gratis the worst drubbing they have
ever known outside a Roosevelt
year.
For it is absolutely certain that
the economists of the American
Protective Tariff League will dis
cover in the use of this old-fash-
toned theme a covert attack on the
sacred schedules of Dingleyism. II
is matter of surprise that the Key
stone Democrats should so poorly
esteem the shrewdness of the pro-
lection managers as to dream that
they will fail to recognize this in
sidious threat against the Pennsyl.

MONDAY. JULY %. 1907.
Wanted: An Explanation,

1t will be interesting to note the
explanation which the apostles of
high protection will make of the
startling and progressive falling of
of the balance of foreign trade in
favor of the United States. We
doubt not that the Chinese-wall
economists will find in this condi-
ton an argument in favor of raising
the wall by few more courses, in
the hope of keeping out some part
of the steadily increasing food of
foreign goods that is coming TO
these shores. The tariff rates arc
now the highest in our history; %
per cent higher even than Nelson
Dingley would attempt TO defend,
except with the explanation that the
last 25 per cent was put on for trad
ing purposes. And yet, withal, i'm
ports are fast outstriPping exports
in volume.
1t seems altogether safe to say
that in present conditions the part
of good policy would be to give en-
enlargement to our export trade by
cultiyating friendly commercial rela-
tions with countries that might be-
come good customers, rather than
by trying to hold back a flood of
imports that manifestly will not be
denied. If the high tariffites insist
on claiming the credit for the pres
ent prosperity of the country they
must assume some, at least, of the
blame for the incidental conditions.
of which the immense growth of i'm
ports is one.
This question of the diminishing
balance of trade is certain to have
more attention in the future than
in the past. 1t must be explained
in the campaign next year. The
people on beth sides of the tariff
question must Be ready for it. For
ourselves, we believe revision and
reciprocity, by encouraging rela-
tons abroad that would conduce
10 larger exports, would solve the
problem.
