NOT A BAD FELLOW
DICK kinsella Really Sane and Level

Writer.
is SIMPLY MIsREPREsENTED
Newspapers of Springfield Blamed for
Placing Ball Club in False Light
Before League.

The Decatur Herald sports writer
thinks Dick Kinsella is not such a
fool as he is painted by the newspapers
of his own town. He says:
No one wants to quarrel with Dick
Kinsella and probably Dick wants no
quarrel with any one else in the
league; he has proven a good sport in
the past and knows the rules of the
game of baseball and how il must be
played. but some impressionable re-
rorters over at Springfield are likely
to get him in bad. They represent
Dick as still being on his high horse
when he is not They ask him fool
and impossible questions and then try
to make sense out of the replies he
filings at them.
ITO hear them tell it, Dick is not
bound by the salary limit because he
did not sign it he is thus left open to
fix limit for himself, or rather nc
limit. Dick knows better than that
and never, told them anything of the
kind.
''To hear them tell it Dick is going
to put Springfield in another league
taking his players with him. Dick
didn't tell them anything OF the kind
He knows that the league has territor
ial rights in Springfield; he supposed
the Springfield reporters knew it too
but they don't seem to.
There is just one thing that Kin
sella could do if he desires to quit
baseball; that is release his players
and nail up the gates to his park
Even in that event the league car
transfer the franchise to other parties
who can build a new park, sign new
team and go ahead. In this connection

merce commission has been unable, II
willing, to compel the sleeping car compa-
nies to bring their tariff down to a reas-
enable basis, the public complaint against
them being not merely of a lack of dis.
crimination between first and second class
accommodations but Of general exorhf-
tance. Comparisons between services rem
dered on a sleeping car and in hotel
show the former to be extrava gantly ex-
cessive. The company has always main
tanned in defense of the rates that its
patronage Is necessarily limited, plea
that the travelling public has been dis
posed to resist on the ground that IL the
rates were reasonable more business could
be done.
While they are about the matter of re-
adjusting the sleeping car tariff the Pull
man off1cials might properly consider the
matter of porters' wages. As the case
stands today the public pays the porter,
not indirectly through the price paid for
the accommodations. but directly in the
form of tips. The average rortes. it is
said, makes three or four times az mucl,
as his wages In the form of tips from
passengers. He depends upon the tips
and Is encouraged to do so by the com
pany- Yet his service is no more than
that of the hotel chambermaid or porter
doing the necessary work Of preparing
rooms for the accommodation of the
guests. The car porter should either be
thrown absolutely upon the generosity OF
the passengers with frank understand
ing that he is an unsalaried servant, or
he should be paid sufficient wage to en-
able him to live without trusting to the
gratuities of the public.
