BASEBALL IN LINIELIGHT.
American and National Leagues Hold
 Schcduic Meetings TO-morrOw.

Baseball comes prominently into the limelight this week. Tomorrow the National and American leagues hold their schedule meetings in New York, and at the end of the week the ball players of many major league teams will be packing their grips prepara- tory for departure for southern train ing grounds. Before another week passes majority of the clubs will have begun active practice for the coming season.
 Little of moment aside from the adoption of the schedules is slated to happen at the big pow-wow in New York. for there is really no expectation that President Pulliam will make a serious issue of the alleged blacklist of the National Association of Minor Leagues. His threatened resignation of the presidency is not receiving se- rious consideration.

CARPET B)WLINC NOTES.

Clinton is the latest convert to ear. pet bowling More than that the la dies have the honor of introducing the sound, The game promises to become even more popular in small places than 1t is in the larger cities. The reason being that amusements are not so num- erous in small towns and anything new and good in the way of sport is rapidly taken up. The small cost of introduc- ing the game and the reason that 1t can be played on any regular carpeted hall floor is two of the principal req sons that commend carpet bowling to the fraternal organizations.

SETTLEMENT OF a QUESTION. The
Z. $. Supreme court has ruled that
Sand Island, situate at the mouth Of
the Columbia river. and possessing
valuable fishing rights, long the OBJ
ject of contention between this State
and Oregon, belongs to the latter
State. 1t is based upon finding
that the channel, rs judiciaily de-
termind, lies in the center of the
old North channel, which was aband-
oned many years ago as the main
ship channel. 1t now lies to the
south of Sand Island, and it has been
held by the State of Washington
that the center of the channel should
mark the line of the interstate
boundary. Considerable loss will re-
suit to Washington fisheries, sup
posed to have been acquired under
the fishery laws of this State. 1t
transpircs upon investigation, that
the original Sand Island, that is the
old island, was washed away and a
new island formed from the accrc-
tions. The original island was held
as military reserve by the General
Government in 1864. At that time
the State troops were driven from
the island by Federal troops.

y SCGGEsTIoN. -lnasmuch as DR..
Carlyon is interesting himself about
the commission system of city gov
eminent, it might be meet and prop.
er that Mcssrs. Ruth and Morris
should lay the plan of township or
ganization before the coming session
of our lawmaking body. The farm
erS' interests need looking after. as
well as those of the city folks. The
abortive law of lS95ought to be wiped
off the statute books, and an add
tional law enacted, rs contemplated
by the State Constitution. Such Il
local system of government is popu-
lar wherever in vogue, which brought
at the doors of the people gives them
the opportunity of managing their
own local concerns, such rs roads,
bridges, etc, without calling upon
officials far away from the scene of
operations. The theory of many
Republican of1ice-holdcrs has been
that men can manage their official
affairs by selecting absent officials,
unacquaintcd with the local situation,
but are not competent to select men
to attend to such duties who live
in the ncighborhood, and work
right under the eyes of their con-
stituents.
