Many Changes Advocated.

Every winter it is suggested that the
foul-strike rule be cut out. that the bat
ter be allowed four strikes. that the plate
be made smaller. that the spit ball be
eliminated and many others too numer-
Gus TO mention. There is some logic in
few of the contentious. while most Of
them are foolish In the extreme.
Perhaps nothing would please the bat
ters more than the abolition OF the spit
ball. but such thing is out OF the ques-
tion. The spit bali has come 70 stay
and about the only thing that would ever
stop any OF the twirlers from using II
would be the failure OF the saliva to
flow. In such a case some other method
would be used and the ball would con-
tinue to be as elusive as ever
The cutting out Of the strike rule is
An absurdity. The desire OF all managers
is 70 shorten the game. and every effort
is being made to eliminate the features
that delay. The foul-strike rule did more
than any one thing TO quicken the game.
and there isn't the slightest chance Of
il being abolished

Nine HIfr n Gnme

IN the American League last year the
Detroit team, which won the pennani, led
the league in batting with an average of
.e66. The Tigers took part in 153 games
and made 1883 hits. an average of trine
over nine bingles a game. When pitcher
gets touched up for ten hits or more. the
safeties going into the double figure col
unn, it is generally conceded that he has
been hit rather hard. Yet the Detroit
team averaged nine hits a game, within
one of the double figures. That's hitting
the ball pretty hard in these modern days
OF baseball when batting is regarded as a
lost art
The Boston team. which did the poorest
hitting in the league. made 1,2SO hits in
l55 games, an average OF almost eight a
game. Thus. a comparison between the
eight clubs in Ban Johnson's league will
show that all of them averaged between
eight and nine hits game
That there are other essentials besides
hitting In order to have winning team
Is shown by the averages. In 1906 Chi
eago won the pennant and the world s
series, yet finished last in batting hon
ors. Last year Chicago was seventh in
batting. yet managed 10 take third place
IN the race. Washington finished fifth In
batting, but was hopeless tail-ender

lsrity. winning ball team must have

OF good bunters, two or three players
who are really able to clout the ball. a
wise manager and most of players pos
sessing more than the average amount
OF gray matter. Team work is necessary
for club to make a good showing. The
records show few instances where a club
was able to bat out championship.
Take the Detroit team for instance.
Few critics gave the Tigers even a first
division ranking when the season of 1907
opened, yet it must be admitted that Jen-
nings and his crew played the game for
all II was worth IN the sacrifice depart

Rossman having q 10 his credit, Cough

their end, Jones pilfering 80. Schaefer 81,
Cobb 40. Rossman 20. Coughlin Is. Craw-

had three men who hit over 300 and one
twirler who worked q sensational season
All these elements combined gave Detroit
the oennant.

MAcmINE-NIADE LAWS.

! spurred on by the demand for cam
raign material. the Republican party
i is now trying to turn out patched up
! financial bill. Under tho stress of that
need doubtless the recalcitrant mem
/ bera viii ~ forced to vote for the
measure that Speaker Cannon approves.
Unfortunately, however. this gives no
llief As this paper has said over and
over again what is needed is not more,
but less, bonds against which currency
car be issued. The simple fact is that
the recurrent strngencies of fall and
spring will never be reduced to a
minimum until the currency is put on
a sensible basis
England. France and Germany buy
cotton. iron and coal. The two latter
countries market great crops of cereals
and wines and import large quantities
of food stuffs from America and yet
the business of the ordinary merchant
and manufacturer goes on unimpaired,
because the currency on which the
business is done expands and contracts
automatically with the amount of bust
ness.
Here in America where our bank
notes were called into being in order
TO supply a market for government
bonds otherwise unstable, we are
neither able to call money out as fast
as It may be needed in the spring or
fall. nor to retire 1t when its purpose
has been served. Therefore we have
alternate sluts and famines.
The Dispatch has been de-
lighted to see the increasing appre-
citation OF this fact, and if the Republi-
can party is so fatuous as to force
through bill that does not go to the
heart of the matter. we hope and be-
lieve that the public will not be de-
ceived by any such eatch-vote legisla-
tion.
