We notice in this weeks papers
that the Iron Mountain X. K. has

Monroe Sanitarium for the en-
pioyees of that road and that the
building is to be enlarged and the
A. l.. & G.. aud the v. S. & p.

reason why a Sanitarium should
not be established in Winfield.
The Rock Island sends their en-
ployees to Little Rock, the l.. &
A. to Texarkana, and the l.. X
& N. to Shreveport. Winfield
is in the midst of the largest lum-
b ring interests IN the State where
mill men aud railroad employees
arc always in need Of a sanitarium
Why should the employees of the
Rock Island go to Little Rock?
Because there is no hospital or
on their line. The L.
& A. are in the same position.
The l.. r. & N. and the L. & G..
would, and we believe assist In
the location of sanitarium at
Winfield. Our mineral waters,

REFORMERS MAY
HELP BASEBALL
Outlaw State League Then Can Be
Admitted In Class B and Put
Teams In All Big Cities In
California

1t is probable that the reformers in
Portland will come to the rescue Of
Hen Berry and other southern sports
men who want to put in q new club
in this vinicity to fight for the Coast
league pennant. Judge McCredie, who
horned into the controversy long
enough to block the plans for continu-
GUS baseball in Los Angeles, now has
troubles of his own at home, and may
not be such a power in the league
councils in future as in the past. The
reformers want to stop everything on
Sunday, baseball included, and only
because the Portland management ex-
planned that the games yesterday were
to be the last ones this season were
they permitted. Everybody else who
did business there, except the drug
stores, had to play hide and seek with
the cops.
With the chances favorable for the
enforcement of the Sunday laws in
Portland and their application to base
ball, Portland will not be as much
sought after by either of the leagues
on the coast as now. In fact, without
Sunday baseball Portland would be un-
able to support a class A team.
The outlaw State league that has
been giving the Coast league magnates
a heap of trouble ever since it was
organized also will have an influence
upon the Coast league situation. The
outlaws want to come into organized
baseball as a class B league and ex-
pand into the good towns of California.
In the event that the Sunday laws
are to be enforced against baseball in
Portland it is not improbable that that
city will be dropped from the Coast
league circuit and new circuit formed
of California cities, either four or six,
probably the former. Then, If the out
laws will be good, they can be made
a class B league and get franchises in
San Francisco and Los Angeles and do
business upon a non-conficting sched-
ule that in reality would furnish Los
Angeles, San Francisco and Oakland
with continuous baseball.
Plans that have been discussed for
bringing the outlaws into organized
baseball contemplate placing a class
B club in each of the California cities
now in the Coast league, including
Sacramento, and thereby furnishing
a continuous schedule throughout the
playing season of seven or eight
months. With the almost total alb
sence of rain during this period none
of the clubs would sustain any seri-
Gus loss by reason of having to post
pone games on account of rain.
There is no denying that the out
laws want to get into organized base
ball nearly as much as the members
of organized baseball want them. Pay
ing princely salaries and playing only
Saturdays and Sundays in the smaller
cities Of the state has been a serious
problem with the outlaws. BY playing
the larger cities on a regular through
out -the-week schedule and paying only
class B salaries the league could do a
profitable business, fill long-felt want
in Los Angeles and solve several prob
lens at the same time. Such an ar
rangement would permit dropping
Portland into the northwestern class
B ranks and the consequent reduction
of travelling expenses of the other three
Coast league clubs.

DETROIT, Sept. 27.-Detroit went
back into the league lead by beating
Philadelphia in their final meeting.
Both pitchers did good work, the diff
ference in the baserunning largely de-
Gliding the result of the contest with
the added fact that Mullin was better
supported. Owing to Sunday ball con-
ditions existing here, the club getting
no police protection for these games,
the gates were closed at 2:30 and sew
eral thousand persons were turned
away to prevent the crowd becoming
so large as to be unwieldy. Score:

CHICAGO, Sept. 27.-Chicago shut out
Boston here today, 3 to 0. A drizzling
rain fell throughout the game, but Sher-

perfume hitting in the opening inning,
coupled with pair of errors and
stolen base, gave Chicago two runs,
and another came in the next inning
as a result of a base on balls and a
triple. Score:
Chicago 8, hits s, errors 0.

REDONDO BEACH, Sept. 27.-Re-
dondo went soccer crazy today over
the game between the Thistles and Los
Angeles teams. 1t was the first real
practice game of the season and
showed the teams to be in exceptionally
fine form to start the season. The
plays were fast and accurate and the
cool judgment displayed by both teams
will help them to win many a game
later on. The large crowd that wit
messed the game went away confirmed
soccer fans and will organize a local
team upon the return of A. w. Wal
ton, who goes to Santa Barbara today
to coach the soccer team of that city
for two weeks. Walton played a star
game with the Thistles today and is
one of the leading soccer promoters of
the coast.
Both teams in today's game COM
plimented Redondo on her excellent
sporting field and expect to play here
again at an early date.
The tie score of l to / is evidence of
fast, brainy playing for a practice
