BASEBALL PLAYERS
To FORM UNION
FIELDER JONES BELIEVES THAT
BASEBALL PLAYERS SHOULD
FORM A UNION TO GET HlcHEa
SALARIES = BASEBALL INTER
RUPTs BUSINESS CHANCES.

Fielder Jones, former manager OF
the white sox and now dabbler in the
timber and apple business In oregon.
thinks that the baseball players should
organize themselves into q union. Ha
Is OF the opinion that the baseball
players wanting bigger salaries should
use such an expedient to get their de-
mands recognized.
Fielder Jones has been player first
and then a manager. and he knows
whereof he speaks. Jones' sympathies
are with the player first. last and ali
the time, and he made 1t plain when he
was winning worlds championships
In 1905. Being friend OF the player.
Il Is only natural that Jones could get
more work out OF his men than any
other manager In the game. and that
was responsible in large measure for
the first championship the American
league ever won.
These spasmodic attempts on the
part Of players to get more money for
their services, some Of them greatly
deserving IL, too, arc energy wasted
The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1911-05-20

said Fielder Jones recently. "Take a
club that clears $150,0O0 in a year, and
it could we'll afford to pay it's deserv-
ing players more money. The player
gives the ball club the best years of
his life, and when he begins to go
back they get rid OF him mighty
quick. Playing half a year in baseball
naturally interrupts his chance of es-
tablishing a business or securing a
business education. If he makes any
money at all it has to come out of
baseball, for generally a SIS month
job must suffice throughout the winter
to keep down expenses.
There are several ways to get a
salary raised, but the surest one is
in combination. Let half a dozen of
the best players on a club strike for
more money and stick to their de-
mands and they can tie up any base
ball club In the country"

INVITE MITCHELL
TO COME TO FARGO
FORMER PRESIDENT or THE
UNITED MINE WORKERS WILL
BE- ASKED TO SPEAK HERE
FLEMING TO REPRESENT THE
ASSEMBLY AT CONVENTION.

John Mitchell, formerly the head OF
the United Mine Workers Of America
and one of the most worthy opponents
for the cause OF union workers In
America today, will be invited to de-
liver an address in Fargo by the local
Trades and Labor assembly.
Elk President Mitchell will be in this
state in July when he will deliver the
main address at the big chautauqua
Labor Day programme at Valley CITY.
1T is probable that he will necessarily
have to pass through here and the
local laboring men have decided to
ask him to make an address in Fargo.
At the meeting of the Trades & Labor
assembly held last night at Assembly
halls M. j. Fleming was elected as the
delegate to attend the Minnesota
state convention at Mankato. Mr..
Fleming is one of the foremost union

TAFT TALKS TO
LABORING men

Harrisburg, Pa, May 20.-The ad-
dress Of President Taft here this week
has been causing a great deal Of COM
ment in laboring circles of the United
States. The chief executive stated his
position on many points relating to
labor in a manner that he had never
done before.
The speech was delivered to the
tenth biennial convention of the
Brotherhood OF Railroad Trainmen.
The president was introduced by Gov
ernor John K. Tener. 1t was a plain
and frank talk the president made,
but the delegates seemed to like it.
The president kept close to his text
He spoke of trade unions, their good
and bad points, but he wound up by
defining his position In regard to the
affiliation of government clerks with
the American Federation of Labor
The question, he said was most likely
to come UP In congress. 1t presented
a serious problem, which the president
declared demanded the attention of
the whole people.
II think" said the president, 'fsome
persons nave gone TO the extreme or
holding that there ought to be no COM
binations Of government employees

all governments the government en-
ployes are permitted to combine and
have associations for their better

such combinations should be allowed
to affiliate with the American Fedora
tion of Labor and then to hold in re-
serve as an instrument for enforce

gress for increased compensation, or

DOUBLE-CROSSED GRAFTERS
Who Planned to Put Crooked Bill
Through Congress.

Most people have at least a suspicion
that all bills put through Congress are
not conceived and adopted solely in the
interest Of the public, or that all bills
of a personal nature are not fair and
honorable in every way, and evidence has
come out now and then to show that
those suspicious are more or less correct.
Few are in better position, generally
speaking, to know of some of these in
side deals that would not stand inspection
than Washington newspaper correspond
ents, for every one of them knows a
great deal more than he writes.
The leading article in our next Sunday
Magazine deals with this subject in the
most convincing way possible. by means

representations, had secured the assist

character. which in itself. on account of
the respect OF his associates, would have
been sufficient to secure the passage of
the bill. 1t all hinged on the stroke of
