BASE BALL SEASON OPENS SOON.
Local Team the Strongest in Years
Opening Game Decoration Day.
Come Out and See II.

From the present indications Deni
son has the prospect of having the
best ball team that it has had fol
several years, and there is no reason
why it should not be the banner base
ball year. The team this year is made
of home material, and there is nc
better material in the state for an
all home team. We feel sure that they
will be winners from the start of the
season to the close.
There is not d weak place on the
whole nine and there is no place that
1.-THE captain sees fit to make change
The season proper will open on Dec.
grafton day, May 80, and by that time
will be in such shape that they will
make the other teams hustle to keen
the Denison boys from running up biz
scores on them. The opening day we
understand will be the banner day
|of the season for the band will be
out in full uniform and all the bali
fans have pledged their attendance
One of the city officials will pitch the
first ball, while one of the county off
GERS will receive the catch. !.
The club is now made up Of Otto
Faul, who is captain, and who will dc
the most of the pitching Of the season
but will be relieved by Lewie Jacob
son of Charter Oak, who last yea,
pitched ball for the Freeport, Ill.
club. and while employed by them
made q record for himself as one 81
the best semi-professional pitchers in
the business. Lon Freed, who last
year led the batting average for the
season. will be at his old position bach
of the bat. Roy Mote will play short
stop. The first sack will be occupied
by either Raymond Ackley or Barney
Otto, as the management sees at
Either of these men are good, but the
best one will be awarded the position
and the other will be given an outfield
position. Clark will play third base
but he has good man working
against him Hooker of Dow City
who is showing up in good form. The
outfeld is not yet known. but Rich
ards is working, hard for the position
and is doing fine work, and will UNI
doubtedly be awarded position
Chupp is also working out for an out.
field position and is doing fine work;
he will undoubtedly be awarded po
sition. Chupp is good hitter and
keeps his mind on the game all the
time. Richardson has been working
out for an outfield position, but ii
is not certain yet that he will remain
in Denison for the summer. Tom Kelly
is camped out in center field and
promises to play with the boys during
the season.
The game that was to be played al
Carroll last Sunday was called of
owing to rain.

7. A. GRIFFIN REPLIES TO
DAILY NEWS EDITORIAL ON
FREIGHT RATE ADVANCES
(From Chicago Daily News.)
Mr.. Griffin Replies.


| desire to call attention to an edito-
rial printed in The Daily News, May
81, headed Back Fire on the Shippers,
in which you make the following state
ments: First, that my representation
of the case is not candid; second, that
what did have to say was based upon
the action of the shippers conference,
and, third, that | had no right to pose
as business man having interests in
common with the shippers
The circulation for signatures of a
statement relating to freight rates was.
as far as | was concerned, confined to
fellow members of the Railway Busi-
ness association, and no reference was
made to the shippers conference. |
personally attended this conference
and have no criticism to make on any
thing that was done there and none
was made or intended by me, but what
deprecated" was contained In an ar
ticle sent out by the Illinois Manufac-
turers' Association, dated May Z, and,
as member of that Association, |
personally wrote a letter to each of its
individual members, dated May IT. In
this ! referred to the misleading and
unfair statements contained in the
circular of May mentioned above, and
in doing so / was candid | said
that the statement that railroads are
rapidly increasing their net earnings"
was not true and as to the correctness
of my statement / beg to refer to the
following:
The latest nterstate-commerce COM
mission reports show that during the
month of March eleven systems, repre-
senting every railroad north and west
on line drawn through Chicago and
ST. Louis, show an Increase in gross
earnings for the month of March, of
nearly $7,000,00O compared with March,
1909, while the net earnings for the
same roads in the same period show
a decrease of $965,O00; and the inter-
state commerce commission figures for
the ten months, July to March 81, in
1910, as compared with 1905, show an
Increase in gross of over $4,000, 900,
while the net earnings of these same
systems in the same period Of compari-
son, show falling off of over 81, ,5O0,-
GOO. And, as comparatively little of
the increases in wages had even gone
into effect during March, the railroads
must provide some means tD increase
revenue that is already decreasing
on an increased amount of business.
and there is no way for railroads to
provide this except by increasing their
rates, and surely there Is treason for
the need of it."

ond page of this Illinois Manufac-
turers' Association circular of May Z

CHAPTER II.

The day was early over the mead
ows and the first dews lying with the
frost upon the stubble-fields when
Tempest came out of the house to the
terrace where his horse waited
The avenues before him were nests
of golden and brown leaves, and his
mare at first went gingerly into them
with pretty, careful steps, picking her
footing and shrinking as they cracked
and rustled At the foot of the ave-
nue. he skirted the ratings of the park
in search of small gate for pedes-
trians and leading out into the road
towards Billings Poke and Craven.
He had an idea. doubtless very
reasonable one. that if Miss Carew
was as serious and good as she seem
ed she had every plan to run away
or to slip out of Craven by the morn
ing train.
She could not slip out before. Not
and he smiled at the idea-"unless
she start again on foot, which / have
no doubt she would be capable of do
ing if she knew me to be so early on
the chase
At Ramsdilrs Polly told him the
lady had already started to walk to
the train and Tim was to follow her
later with her boxes
Tempest, in whom the invigorating
day awakened the best of spirits, was
delighted. He wanted to find her fly
ing. 1t pleased him to see his psy-
chology was not at fault, and that he
should as well have the pleasure of
the chase.
Yes, he nodded to Polly, who, de-
mure and admiring, stood by the gate
delivering her news. Yes, | knew
Miss Carew intended to leave, but

message which may keep her. pos

Why did she start so soon?"
1t seemed that Miss Carew had

dend paying stock For clearer def
milton, the average earnings should be
based upon the entire stock, and not
upon the best paying portion of it, un-
less there is some reason why the
$2,500,0o0,000 representing the "a per
cent should not have received any divi-
dends at all.
In the final paragraph of the edito-
rial 1t is stated that | should not be
allowed to pose as a business man,
having no interest in common with
the shippers" Inasmuch as my con-
cern shipped an average of $50 900 tons
of finished product during 1906 and
1907, and we were obliged to receive
more than 100000 tons of iron to fur
nish this, plus enormous quantities of
coke, coal and other supplies, can
safely claim to have shipped in and
out 100000 tons a year, and as there
are no railroads who can afford to haul
this material, or any part of it, without
having a revenue from 1t, an increase
of 10 cents ton on my hauling charge
would amount to $4,000 and, there
fore, have business" interests in COM
mon with other shippers" The 350,000
tons of finished product shipped repre-
sented in the neighborhood of 100000
600 This S10,000,000 represented most
ly labor. with the exception of the
| cost of the ore and coal in the mines
All the balance was made up of wages
and profit on the different conditions
of the raw material until it was fin
ished product
My Illinois plants produced so per
cent Of this amount, or $6,00O,0 1000 a
year. For three years our Chicago
plants have not run more than half
/ capacity. Therefore, there was $3,000,-
600 year less in distribution because
of a corresponding shrinkage In sales.
As most of our iron and coal comes
from Illinois, this $3,000,000 year was
not distributed in Chicago, as would
have been the case had we worked on
the same output that we did in 1906
and 1907. And great deal of that
$3,000,000 which was not paid was
taken out of the business firms situ-
ated in or near Chicago by the non
purchases from their varied business
on the part of the community that
would have received the $3,O0O,O00 a
year for three years. That is the rea-
son why have right, as a business
man, to deprecate any unfair or un-
called-for obstacles that are placed In
the way of my business and the hum
dred other varieties of business in this
country that are affected by the money
put into circulation by the railroads.
When it is further considered that my
business constitutes but 10 per cent
of the cost of car and that there
were nine other units similarly affect
ed, most of which would have been
tributary to Chicago, anyone can see
how important 1t is to his individual
interests that the railroad companies
should have ample funds to make these
improvements and purchases, and will
realize how comparatively easy 1t Will
be to stand a reasonable advance on
the freight for any material he will
need, If he Is receiving increased
orders.
