inc the or season are barney prey fuss of Plttsburg and Frank Narln of Detroit. Their troubles will principal Iy come when the players contracts are sent out. Then there will be an overwhelming demand from Pirates and Tigers for large increases in sol- aries. and the hOldout league will gain many temporary recruits. John Doyey of Boston will have to put in a busy or season. His team is considered a joke everywhere, particularly in Bos- ton, and it needs strengthening badly.
 Stanley Robison's problem in St. Louis is how to get Roger Bresnohan to curb bis temper and keep the in- ventor of the shin guards from spend ing all the money the team made in talent of low grade. Stanley isn't as much stuck on Roger as he was a year ago, and neither is the St. Louis public.
 The acquisition of Hugh Dufy as leader of the Chicago Americans is the first move of Charlie ComlsEey in a grand sh0keup in the ranks of his White sox. The "Old Roman" was sadly disappointed with the showing of his team against the Cubs in the Chicago championship series. At the time Comlskey said that he would in- augurate a general housekeeping bee, In which such heads as George Davis, Frank Isbell, Doc White Tonnehill aud a bunch Of other of the famed hltless winners might be expected to fall.
 The Cleveland magnates have their work cut out for them. The Maps looked mighty poor when the season ended. and Somers and Kilfoyl hope, with McGulre's assistance, to trans form them Into contenders for the American league lag. If the Cleye' land magnates did nothing else during the of season than refuse offers for Larry Lajolc their time would be fully occupied
 All in all, the or season of 1909 promises to be a busy one for all per sons connected with the national pas' ime.

BUSY WINTER
 FlR BALL MEN

With the baseball campaign of 1909 only a memory, the fans are beginning to speculate ou what will happen next season ou the big circuits and how the club presidents and managers will solve the problems that are confront Ing them. There Is no rest for the maguates these days, for they always have to be peerius into the future and arranging for contingencies that may arise.
 Many players will be traded new managers will be obtained, and train ing camps will be selected,
 John T. Brush of New York will spend lots of time with Manager Me Graw. In all probability on the Ques- ton of strengthening the Giants by trades with other clubs and also on the proposition of training in Texas again next spring,
 The question of the BrooElyu's train ing camp next spring is not worrying Charley Ebbcts at the immediate mo- meut The latter is after new man ager and until he gets one will let the training matter slide. The showing made by Harry Lumlcy as com mander was not good enough to com tiuue him in office, though the judge has not as yet rendered his resigna- ton nor been officially fired. How ever. it Is a certainty that he is to re- sume his place among the priyates.
 Charles II. wants a pilot of more spirit than the once noted slugologist and Is hot on the trail Of Johnny King. Failing to get the latter, Ebbets prob. ably will offer the management of the Brooklyn club Co "Wcc William Hee- Ter. who isn't an in as a player by any means, but who probably would re- celve his release from the New York American league club were Farrell to learn that tho little veteran had a chance to advance In his profession.
 Ebbets thinks that with am aggres, sive player lIkc EcoIer or Kling ot the head of his club thc young stars Of the Brooklyn team would pay well enough to put thc Suporbas in the first divisiou-a place they haven't seen for a long time
 Ebbets isn't the only major league magnatc who is searching for a pilot for his team. Robert Lee Hedges owner of rhc st. Louis Browns wants man to succeed Jim McA'ecr. Jack O'Counor at one time was thought to have the position c.uglcd but Jack and Robert Lee are far apart ou the question Of terms. wl,b only remote possibility of either giving iu.

OFFICIAL CITY PAPER.

Some excellent suggestions are contained in the recommendations made by the grand Jury which ad- jOurned at Valdez this week. Chief among these is one asking that some equitable form of taxation be devised for the fishing interests of the coast. The jury recited one Instance in which a corporation packing SOO,OOO cases of salmon paid the government 32 cents in taxes.
 An agent of the company furnished an affidavit that bis concern had re, leased enough red salmon fry to entiue it to a tax rebate of S32,272, The affidavit did not even have to be proven to the court. According to the present law, as set forth by the grand jury, the unsupported word of any agent is sufficient to release fishing corporations from paying taxes. The government tos. ters the industry for the benefit of these private interests and then al. lows them to escape the payment of taxes,
 Folks Alaska directory claims there is SI7OOO,OoO invested in the fishing industry at the present time IL says further: Today there are 47 cannerIes and 22 salterles in full Op eration, the value of which com bined the yearly output approzi mates SS,OOO,OOO. The industry grew with extreme rapidity. Cauneries were constructed at a cost of from S5O,OOO to sI2O.OOO each. and enor nous profits were realized from the investment When 1t was found, il 1892, that the supply of canned sal mon was exceeding the demand, a combination was formed, with the result that by mutual understanding several canneries were shut down the owners coming into the general pool and receiving a pro rata share Of the profits from the active can. neries."
 Over 10000 persons were employ, ed the past season Of whom over 4.OOO were white men. Congessiona, legislation has been devised to keeG aliens from sncrOaching on the fish. ing grounds. In fact, legislation so Gar, 1t would seem, has been devised principally to perpeuate and protect a powerful combination in ravishing the wealth of the most valuable fish ing grounds in the world without pay, ing a cent in return toward the sup, port of the territory.
 True, in lieu Of taxes, the com panies are supposed to release sal, mon fry, but on this point the grand jury said: Your grand jury is of the opinion that this fry for the re lease of which the government is paying, is mainly for the benefit of these companies. ."-Cordoya North Star.

EDUCATIONAL CRISIS
THREATENED IN AFRICA

Johannesburg.-An educational cri-
sis is threatened in Orangia. As was
predicted, great deal of friction has
been created, and general dissatisfac-
ton has been aroused among the
British section of the population over
| the working of General Hertzog's act.
| which provides that instruction must
be given partly in Dutch and partly
in English, and that teachers must
be proficient in both languages. Rig
Id existence upon the letter of the law
has brought the education depart-
ment intb collision with various local
authorities, and so strong is the feel
ing that it has been suggested that
In the interests of their children the
English colonists should set up schools
of their own. The situation is thus
summed up by a Cape journal:
The act has not been in force five
months, and already it is fulfilling
the gloomiest predictions. Expiring
racialism has been famed anew into
flame; some of the best teachers are
quitting the service in disgust, and
poor substitutes are taking their
place; confusion has been introduced
into school classes, and the children
are sufferers; the work of the teach
ers, the school committee and the di-
rector of education has been render
ed extraordinarily difficult. and both
Dutch and English-speaking parents
have been forced into a condition of !
discomfort which threatens to bring
about just such another school dis |
ruption as retarded the educational |
progress for some time under the |
Crown Colony government"
1t is added that at present there are |
not nearly enough certified teachers
offering themselves for vacancies in
the colony, and that the average
standard of attainment of the staff
is falling instead of improving year
by year The imported teachers
mostly English and Scottish, who
were the backbone of the service. are
gradually being lost. In five years
their numbers fell from 240 to co.
are constantly occurring
and in one year, according to the last
report of the director of education,
more than one-fourth of the entire
staff left the service

years, while the officers Of the school
district allege it was for 80 years
Without ever having been recorded,
the lease was lost, so that a lawsuit
is inevitable. AS it will be 25 years
before the suit can be brought and
as Mr.. and Mrs. Whitworth will prob
ably be dead by that time, it was de-
cided to take their testimony now so
it could be used when the case final
ly comes to trial, 25 years later.
