Keokuk Does Want Baseball.

Today it cannot be said positively
that Keokuk will continue to have
league ball during the remainder of
the season, but it can be stated with
out hesitancy. however, that If the
same spirit prevails among the
citizens who were rot present at
last nights meeting as that loyal fan
feeling which did show itself among
those who were there, then Manager
Belt and the hundreds OF faithful ones
will see the team through the last
game in September.
The meeting last night was an en-
thusigstic one, suggestions were made
and every one had chance to say
something or to give something to-
ward the support of the Keokuk base
ball team and taking into considera-
ton that thos. who attended the
called meeting, were the representa-
tive fans of the city, it can safely be
said that the $1,000 needed will be
raised tomorrow by the committees
appointed to soncit.
