The right to play baseball on Sunday IL
apparently in no wise to be restricted or
impaired. The game Is considered and
probably with Justice, to be our national
game. and we have 1t on high judicial
authority that to prohibit or to interfere
with the playing Of II on Sunday would
be contrary TO the spirit OF American In
situations. Upon this. indeed. jurists, so
cial reformcrs and advanced theologians
all seem TO he agreed. and he who dis
sents from their dictum Is likely to find
himself denounced as puritanical and be-
hind the times.
Such being the case we must with def
erence express regret Mt the abuses that
are prnctised in association with this in
nlenable natural right For years the
elevated railroad and subway trains Of
this city have been infested on Sunday
afternoons and evenings with gangs Of
young ruffians who, in organized fash
ion and evidently with malice aforc-
thought. have insulted and assaulted
women as we'll as men. have broken
lamps and windows and otherwise de-
stroyed property, and at times have
greatly endangered life by meddllng with
signals for the control Of trains. Such do
ings have for yenrs occurred SO regularly
and to such an extent that many women
have not unreasorably regarded travel
on the cars on Sunday evenings during
the ball season as unsafe. For IN practi-
callv every case tho offenders have been
