LESS THAN DOZEN NOS
The Ballots Are all Alike and Are
Said to Represent the Views
Of All Patrons Of
The Game.


in the daily papers of this city have
been collected anu counted. The
total number signed was 1853. per.
maps not as large number as some
people thought there would be still
sufficiently large to show what the
sentiment in Quincy is. AS a matter
OF TACT this vote just about represents
the entire fandom of Quincy. Inc
fans who attend only on Sundays and
those who go to ball games only when
they have nothing else to do or know
OF no other place to go, would natur
ally not take sufficient interes, in the
matter to clip a ballot from a news
paper and take the trouble to mail
or carry it to one of the boxes in
which they were to be deposited. The
real fans all voted.
Quincy drew 57,213 in seventy-two
games divided into twenty-one series.
The number of fans who attended
one Or more games of each of the
twenty-one series will just about
equal the number Of votes cast. They
by themselves rolled up a total Of
at least 10000 paid admissions,
while the remaining 1905 were
contributed by the once-in-a-while fans
and the transients of the city. These
1883 voters are the backbone of
baseball In Quincy and their refusal
to attend Central Association ball in
this city will kill the game in this
city if the league forces Quincy to con
tinue. The league can figure on the
once-in awhile fans and the transients,
but will not be able to draw the dyed
in-the-wool fans, those enthusiasts
who know the game and well know
the difference between $1,4O0 and ST.
500 ball.
Had it been desired to roll up
big vote, 80 per cent of the adult
residents of Quincy could have been
induced to sign these ballots. No
effort of any kind was made to in
crease or in any way influence the
vote. Anyone supplied with ballots
could have gotten signatures for as
many blanks as he could furnish and
directors as well as newspaper men
were asked daily for them, those de-
sirous of voting having neglected to
cut the ballot from the papers. How
ever, this straw vote started by the
newspapers, was for a voluntary ex-
preston on the part of the fans and
the vote of only those who took
enough interest to clip the ballot,
was wanted. The results are as graf
flying as could be desired The num-
Der of ballots shows where the fans
stand. Not one of the 1883 voters
voted to remain in the Central Asso-
citation and less than a dozen voted
yes" on the second proposition.
The vote shows conclusively that
Quincy is Of no value whatever as
Central Association property and the
statement that 1t is worth $4,000 is
foolish. The fans fail to see why
Quincy should donate this amount
TO the Central Association. They
have done enough towards supporting
the league in the past and before they
come across with $4,000, they will
content themselves with independent
ball.
BY having independent ball, Quin-
CIV is not tied to s1,400 limit, but
can hire players Of merit who will
give them a higher grade of ball on
Saturdays and Sundays than they
could get in the Central Association
next year.

The record of Paid in Full" begin

critical first night audience was rous-
ed to cheers, Paid in Full'' remained
two years on Broadway Summer did
not check the run. 1t is the only play
without music that has ever had a
continuous summe- run in New York.
Each of these companies appeared
at different times in Greater New
York where every return engagement
OF the play proved afresh that paid
in Full was the biggest drawing
card in the metropolis. Each time it
came back it repeated it's enormous
hit. Again this season the same five
companies are continued. Never be-
fore has any play been acted by so
many. This fact alone stamps Paid
in FULL as the greatest play of the
age. 1t is masterpiece. 1t rings
true and drives home. There u y<gor
in every word and movement, there
is virile, pulsing life The characters
are men and women we recognize,
with whom we come in daily contact,
their lives are such as we under
stand. Therein i1es the plays amazing
hold. 1t depicts with striking realism
and vividness persons and conditions
close to us, of which we have direct
understanding.
The engagement in this city is Tie
most notable thus far announced iol
the season, and it will attract even
the most infrequent patrons of the
theatre. First time anywhere at these
prices. 25c to s1.00.

prising manager, has taken great
pains in staging and producing tho
original version of Mrs. Stoves

Discuss Membership.

The discussion regarding the man
agership of the club next season sug-
gested itself Immediately after the
vote on directors was taken After
President McManus had introduced
the topic, Director A. d. Ayres arose
and spoke briefly of the division of
sentiment in Keokuk. 1t was urged
that vote be taken, but Mr.. Ayres
declared that the right of appointing
manager rested with the directors.
Frank Belt was present during the
subsequent discussion. The hero Of
the evening was Hiram Stebbins, who
made the dramatic plea for Belt
He was the first to openly endorse
Belt by saying: Il want to say
word about OLD Pa Bet. He has
never turned dishonest trick while
manager of the Keokuk club, and
that Is more than can be said for the
other managers Keokuk has had. Old
Pa Belt has worked hard for baseball
in Keokuk and l want to see him
manager again" A storm OF ap-
plause followed these remarks.
1t was clearly shown that the anti.
Belt men We're not much in evidence
at the melting, for expressions which
followed were all favorable to the
veteran leader.
