MAY ABOLISH
THE SITS LIMIT
Fans Believe Tri-StaterS Will
Suffer by Enforcing the
Cheap Policy
STARS ARE NEEDED
TO AID THE YOUNGSTERS

There is much discussion among the
fans of the Tri-State baseball circuit
as to the probability of the directors.
at their next meeting. abOlishing the
S175 per month individual player sal
airy limit and make Il allowable for
clubs to pay any one man as much
as they see nc. providing the team sal
airy expenses do not exceed a total or
$1,000. The matter was brought up
for consideration at the January meet
ing In Harrisburg but was defeated.
Since the annual session, however,
almost all OF the teams In the league
have been made TO suffer as result
of the ruling. The law was bad
enough. il is said. while the salary
limit remained az S2,475, but since the
big cut has been made il is now a
real imposition. Several of the teams
i'm the league have been forced 10 dis
pose OF players whom they had signed
because Of the necessity of paying
them too small a salary. Instead OF
advancing a player in the Iri-State
the tight policy IS requiring him
to work for less money Ia 1911 than
he did last year. Managers are handi-
capped and the article of baseball
may suffer.
OF course, there will be holdouts,
and although the "hodout' Is usually
Joke with the club or manager. there
have been cases where men would not
play and had no difficulty in securing
their releases. The manager Of "a club
wants player to obtain as much for
his services as possible. AS result
he will place "A man who Is dissatis-
fed for this. reason at some place
where he can earn what he wants.
! This deprives the home team Of his
services and weakens the club. Base
ball men in other sections do not look
upon the individual limit especially
when &c is as low. as Si75. as an ad-
visable clause in a league agree
ment
If Tri-State League clubs were not
! handicapped by this ruling. adopted
at a meeting where q majority Of the
! representatives were really against Il
as after statements have shown, there
would be "A first class opportunity 20
materially improve conditions. Each
team i'm the league could then sign
up two or three frst-class men, stars
/ in their respective departments OF
positions. aud build around them a
team of players who are striving more
for reputation than salary. This
would give each club some experience
ed and dependable men who know
what to do and when TO do e. Under
present conditions few of the players
will be really stars. and II they ar,
fast youngsters will have no old hcaC
present to steady them in crises.

Wickersham was on the side of Bal
linGer against Pinchot, just as he is at
present against DR.. Wiley. Develop
ments at the hearing before the Stan
ley steel committee. against the
United States Steel corporation
(trust) contain many fresh evidences
that Wickersham eXemplified the al
lance between the republican party
and the capitalists and monopolists.
The sequence of all this will be that
Taft will get many a whack over
Wickersham' shoulder.
COMPETITION OR TRUSTS, WHICHF
When the Sherman law was passed
legislation was directed toward the
prohibition or destruction OF monop-
olistic combinations Roosevelt,
Taft, and Wickersham have not the
idea OF trust dissolution. They advO-

trusts be recognized and leg
allied. but that their greed be curbed
by government regulation. II re-

ARE AMERICAN PEOPLE
ABLE TO RULE, Is
NOW THE QUESTION

(continued from Page Ona)
mine whether or not they desire the
recall.
So the president is not vetoing the
recall of judges when he vetoes the
statehood resolution. What he is
really vetoing is the right of the peo-
pie of Arizona to decide for them
selves the form Of republican govern
ment under which they desire to
live.
You folks in Arizona are not in
telligent enough to select the form
of government under which you are
TO live" is the ultimatum the presi-
dent lays down by vetoing the state
hood resolution. Mr.. Taft would have
his will prevail instead of the will of
two thirds of the people of Arizona.
In the haze of scandals that hang
over the Taft administration the
form of Charles P. Taft. capitalist.
busily multiplying his dollars, is
plainly discernable.
AS the curtain is lifted on each
succeeding scene of scandal the pres
ident is in evidence, and around him,
shaping his course, are men who are
the acknowledged agents of those
forces who are trying to shape hu-
mainly to the dollar.
When he was elected the president
inspired. to many who are now
known as progressive republican"
the belief that he had made his
choice between private and public in
terests. Perhaps he had. But al
ways before his mental vision he
must quite naturally see his brother
and his brothers wealth. From his
nativity, wealth and Its emblems

the son of plutocracy. Yet he means
well. He has a good heart. His
| great handicap is that he has &c
many about him who know what they
want. and to whom the public good
is their last consideration.
Therefore 1t would seem that it
matters little what large schemes are
promised or prophesied, so long as
| Mr.. Taft sits in the executive chair.
The president has as little chance to
| succeed as the chief executive of the
nation, as a man in any other walk of
| life might have If he tried to serve
| two masters.
| CANADIANS ARE WARY
The republican argument that a
! high tariff is needed in this country
/ to maintain the high American
wage" is shown up as a farce, pure
and simple, by the presence in sew
eral American manufacturing COM
munities of agents of Canadian man
ufacturers. who are gathering fig
| ures to show that Canada cannot
afford to have reciprocity with us for
| the reason that Canada cannot COM
pete against American wages.
The Canadians are beginning TO
| understand how II Is that the steel
| trust can sell steel in Canada for
about half the prices charged the
American consumer, and still make a
profit They are learning that men
| work in the steel mills IL hours a
/ day, and seven days a week for a
dollar and half day, and II Is for
the reason that they do not wish to
compete against the cheap foreign
immigrant and negro labor employed
by American trusts that some OF the
Canadians are urging the defeat Of
reciprocity.
And yet, the republican protection
lists have urged all these years that
the great danger 70 American labor
was the possibility that It might have
20 enter into competition with the
Cheap" labor OF other countries
This latest action OF the Canadians
knocks the last legs from under that
ancient contention.
ROAD BUILDING Is POLICY.
