1t came to that. He denounced the
sale as against the spirit of the law Of

benefit of the people at large. Our
government meant that public lands

individuals or corporations as has hap
pened so often in u own country.
Our government meant to take oppor-
tunity by the forelock In this case and
the public lands we're to be saved to
the Filipinos. But there came this
application for more than $4,000 acres
of the friar lands and the question
arose: Did the friar lands come with.

 The National Commission has frown- ed at the plan but the easy money looks too good to the players and the Cub contingent say they will play regardless. Some of them are banking on the formation of new major lea que next season and say if there is any trouble with the baseball tribunal they will go to the new league.
 There are other players besides the, Cub men, however, who have been picked for the all-star team. Most of them will abide by the decision of the commission and have returned their certified checks. But the betting sis that the would-be outlaws will see the light before the tour begins.
