Americans returning from Mexico are
telling hard stories on the Madero gov
eminent, if there is any such thing, and
the manner in which he fails to protect
Americans and other foreigners from
brigands who go about with patriotic
airs. So many such sad tales have
come from various parts of the country
that it is safe to assume that some Of
them must be true, and that Madero
has a large contract ahead of him II he
is to bring order out of chaos and be
reasonably satisfactory to this country
1t is also apparent that he isn't giving
much satisfaction to the people at
home. from the way Orozco, Zapata
and others are carrying on. What Mex
leo was when Diaz' began to weaken. a
country OF large possibilities, and rand
development, 1t owed largely to two
sources: Diaz and outside capital the
bulk of the latter &C ming from this
country. For selfish reasons, therefore.
1t stands the successors of Diaz in
hand to make the country safe for for
eigners, which they have failed to do.
and stock in Mexican properties. has
slumped good deal as a result. MANY
properties are idle, and the men who
should be at work at better wages than
were known there before the Americans
came. are beating the brush in hopes OF
getting pot shot at something. But.
even If the greasers cannot see in what
direction their own advantage lies, il
gratitude were not a stranger 10
Madero, he would afford Americans the
protection they have right to expect.
1t was American leniency which en-
couraged the Madero uprising and
made its success possible by letting
arms and munitions of war pass over
the border, something it has attempted
to stop in the case of Orozco's latest
effort. Also, IL was largely due to
Americans in the fighting force, their
craftsmanship and knowledge of the
game that made victory possible over
the federal troops. Such things Madero
rewards by insulting America and
Americans, and permitting the confis-
cation of their property. That's greaser

RuDYARD FIrIT-

Once Rudyard Kipling was a poet,
but now! To call his Anti-Home
Rule verses doggerel ic to insult the
dog. His poem is the utterance of an
intellectual cad and snob-and a bigot
atop all that. But why should we ex-
pect anything else? No great or even
good poet was ever a Tory at heart.
Not even Shakespeare. even though
Tolstoy thought so. But perhaps we
wrong Mr.. Kipling by calling him a
snob. Maybe he has only what Elmer
son described in a pretentious woman
of his acquaintance as "a strong sym
pathy with success."-Jewell County

SALARY LIMIT WILL
CAUSE TROUBLE
All Classes in Baseball are Having
Salar.. Limit Placed on
Their Players.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Seryice.l
MILWAUKEE, Wis, Nov. 1.-THE
salary limit was the big issue and
promised to consume good part of
today's session when the minor league
men got together.
Interest in the promised wage scale
to be adopted by class AA ieagues and
the stipulation of salary limited for
individual players of the various
classes remained to be worked out by
the magnets.
Glass A, B, G, and D adopted max
imum monthly club limits last night
in amounts of $500, $4,000, s1,400 and
$1,000 respectively. These amounts
do not include the salaries of man
ayers. In addition the Northwestern
league of class B, made UP of such
cities as Portland Tacoma, Seattle,
Vancouver and Victoria, B. c., was al
lowed an additional $1,000, it being
the most powerful league of the class.
The clubs embraced in class A A,
composed of the American Associa-
ton, international and Pacific Coast
leagues, will make public the salary
limit for these leagues today.
The proposed salary limits for in
dividuals was an important issue.
Sentiment of the majority OF manag-
ers and magnates seemed to favor al
lowing each league separately to
agree upon the individual wage scale
and forward the list to Secretary
Farrell early in January Some IA
vored January 1, 80 that the wage
could be included in managers con-
tracts generally sent out about that
time Others ask an extension until
February Is. A definite date was ex-
pected to be set today.
The salary limit was adopted last
night following much heated talk
Fear that the once-attempted congress
sional investigation of baseball as 9
combination to restrain trade was ex
pressed. but the resolution wen
through without much opposition
when the vote was called.
Legislation looking to the enforce
ant feature of today's meeting. The
proposition of William Quinn of Co
lumbus that each club post a certified
check to insure compliance with III,
scale was to be considered.

not serve in a like capacity next year.
He declares he is perfectly willing to
donate to the club and attend games
but he does not want to have the wor-

Mr. Griffey in declining the honor.
will make the fans think up some one
else who will be able to handle the
club in as profitable manner as Mr..
Griffey has done.
All lovers Of baseball should attend
the annual meeting Of the Keokuw
Baseball Association at the superior

eide what shall be done in the mat
ter for the coming season.
A repor.. of the condition Of the

everything gone over TO determine
just how the club stands in the mat
ter OF players, finances and all other
affairs pertaining to the club.
New directors will be chosen for
the year at this meeting. It Is not
known whether or not any of the old
directors will be willing to have the
places thrust back upon their shout
ders or not, but there are plenty OF
fans who will be willing to help out
by assuming a place on the director
ate of the club. President Griffey
has made the statement that he will
not accept the place again, but If nc
one else can be found i is likely that
! he will again be found at the head OF
