It's new league or Independent
ball for the eastern division clubs
OF the Ohio and Pennsylvania league
since secret meeting at Canton
last Monday. Six clubs were repre-
sented at the session, Youngstown.
Akron, New Castle. Sharon, Canton,
and Erie. Nothing was to be said
of the gathering, but somehow It
leaked out.
The meeting was to perfect plans
for the fight at the annual meeting
in cleveland next Tuesday. A line
of action was decided upon. Every
side of the controversy for and
against revision of the league
was taken up. The magnates then
discussed the possibility of their
fight failing and decided to go in
for independent ball rather than
quit the game. Then they discuss
ed players. The club owners believe
the men under contract and reserve
will with few exceptions agree to
play independently.
'We only want baseball and will
not have an outlaw organization
such as the Tristate leaguen one
OF the magnates Is quoted as say
ing. awe can't make ends meet
IT we are to be hooked up with
the western clubs and rather than
go out of business will try to go
on independently OF the National
association. /"

DIAMOND FLASHES.

Looks like that Grady and Finneran
never viii agree.
We are stlll one point behind last place
in the FIRST division and not FAR from the
cellar.
larry Hoch was bumped for twelve safe
ones in innings. His Wild throw In the
sixth didn't help much.
It's Altoona that we run up against to-
day. They have won II and lost 10. The
Peaches have won 16 and lost 10.
Wonder how Manager wolverton feels
with the Reading team throwing It into
MIN. Sort Of seems as If the Millionalres
are going down.
The youngsters appear 10 be the feature
in batting and run getting Of late. zollero,
Catiz and MarhefiSa each had one run and
one hit yesterday.
Red" owens is playing the second sack
somewhat. -Four put outs and four assists
is rot so bad for one game. He has not
made an error on this trip.
1t IS evident that Wilmington players
are not partial to Kroh.
II Finnerans umplring was as bad at
Johnstown as II was during the last games
at which he ofhciated in Wilmington,
there is no wonder the Wilmington team
quit yesterday.

largely created by the eloquent and earnest pleadings of Hon. Mark smith on the fioor-cf congress. now again in corporate a statehood plank in their national platform which declares foi the IMMEDIATE ADMISSION OF ARIZONA AND NEW MEXICO AS SEPARATE STATES"
 In face of this last republican prom ise those who speak for the republican candidate in Arizona unblushingly as sert that the only hope the people of Arizona now have for statehood lies in the election Q. Ralph Cameron. the republican candidate for congress. Ii this is rot a case of self-slander and debasement then such spectacle is an impossibility
 We are aware that the republican party is one of favoritIsm. one who grants special privileges for those who provide the mazuma for meeting campaign expense, but the c,aim that the election of republican to con gress nom tdis territory would in- fluence congressional action on the statehood bill is belied by the ex- perience of New Mexico where re- publican delegate has been returned regularly for twenty years and that territory is no nearer statehood to- day than is Arizona.
 The republican campaign managers should have more respect for their own party than to brand 1t with mak- ing false promises to the territories by declaring that the anly hope of state hood lies h voting the republican ticket.
 Statehood is 2 sacred right to those who qualified Arizona for self-goyern- ment. and the people Of Arizona have already demonstrated that they will not be brow-beaten into any action by the republican party by voting down the joint-statehOod proposition in face of the threat if they did not accept it they would get no other form of statehood for twenty years.
 Arizonans will not now yield to the big stick of the republican party any more than they did two years ago and the democrats will remain true to the principles of their party and to their great leader, Bryan, and continue to rely on the justness of their state hood cause in the future as they have in the past, confident that there is a God in Israel who will not desert HIS deserving people.
Bisbee daily review., 1908-09-18
STATEHOOD A SACRED RIGHT.

In trying to make statehood the is sue in the present Arizona congress sional campaign the republicans are only directing attention to the great wrong done the people of Arizona by the republican party in refusing them tue right of self-government after they have qualified the territory for state hood under all precedent in the his tory of state making in this country.
 Statehood is a right which the peo- pie of Arizona have earned by de yeloping here sufficient wealth to sup port state government; 1t is right which the pioneers of this territory have won by years of toil beneath the rays of an ArizoEa sun in the recla- nation of our agricultural valleys from the desert, by the location and development of the rich minerals in our mountains which has induced a population of intelligent and indus trious citizens to come here and cast their lot with the growing west; 1t is a right won by the creation and support of territorial government equal to that of any state in the union; it is a right testified to by our magnificent public school system which has pro vided first-class school facilities for every child of school age within the limits of the ter itory; it is a right which none will deny when they learn of the moral status of our citizenship our handsome church buildings and growing church congregations.
 With population of near 300.000 and with taxable property amounting to sS0,00O,0 900 Arizona is better quail fled to assume the responsibilities and duties of a state government than were four-fifths of the present states at the time of their admission. The people of Arizona have been entitled to self-government for many years, and tbat they have not been permitted to enjoy this boon is solely chargeable to the republican party who has had complete control in congress during these many years.
 Arizona's qualification for state hood can not be increased or dimin- ished by the election of Mark Smith or Ralph Cameron 10 congress. The personal ambition of these candidates or the desire of their party leaders to win success can not change the con ditions which should count in deter mining the question of the admission of Arizona as a state.
 The republican national convention in the city of Philadelphia in the year 1900 declared in favor of the admis- sion Of Oklahoma. Arizona snd New Mexico as states. hut durin 5, the eight long years since that declqsz'ion was made this rron;is.' has neFsr heen fuI- filled, no'wlu.standing .ha constant entreati.ss and p'es eings Of .fs people of New Mexico and Arizona

We have no intimation of the in- tention of the republicans to invite Speaker Joe Cannon to come to Ari- zona and speak for Ralph Cameron. Uncle Joe would hardly come here, as his last bout with Mark Smith was such as not to create a desire to have the dose repeated.

The strenuosity being exhibited by the Dispatch in it's effort to keep afoat the Cameron political ship shows fervent endorsement in that quarter of the idea of "wen financed campaign"

Why don't the Cameron campaign managers get in hurry call for Judge Taft to include Arizona in his swing around the circle. If Taft thought his presence here would elect Cameron he would no doubt be willing to sacrifice any chances he may have of defeating Bryan.
