SPORTING
MUST SUPPORT
BASEBALL TEAM
MANAGER HoRKlNs SAYS If FANS
HELP HIM CALUMET TEAM
WILL COME OUT ALL
RIGHT.

If tho baseball fans of the copper
oountry want first class baseball. il "a
mp to them to support the Calumet
team" said Manager George Horkins
this morning. Mr. Horlins offers no
criticism and is not disappointed over
the attendance in the opening games,
nut he is anxious that the fans remain
loyal to the team and continue 10 pat
ronize the games. He feels sure there
will he no room for disappointment in
the team once il strikes it's proper
stride
There has been a notable improve
ment in the quality of baseball played
in the Iron Copper Country league,
ever that played in the Iron Country
Delta league OF last season. and the
teams in the iIon country are fully
fifty per cent stronger than their mar
agements expected them to be one
month before the season opened 1t
has been nee cessary aud is still neces-
sary for Calumet to keep pace with
this Improvement and the consequent
expense is much greater than was first
anticipated.
The iron country managements have
called upon the fans for popular sub
scriptions to meet the difference be
tween the running expenses and the
actual gate receipts and they have re-
sponded Loyalty. Calumet's guarantee
list has been made up OF a few large
subscriptions ard the fans have beea
asked to do little more than supporl
the team. If they continue to do this.
Manager Horkins will have the re-
sources to strengthen and mold the
team into a winning aggregation.
Otherwise baseball is likely to have
but brief and stormy existence in
Calumet.
After about five seasons without fast
baseball and one season of fast anna
teur sport the fans should appreciate
the effort that Is being made TO place
| the game on firm footing here and
cooperate with the management 10
the fullest POSSIBLE extent. The quail
! ity of the sport will depend largely
ON the size of the gate receipts.
The Ishpeming and Calumet teams
will clash at the Athletic park this
AFTERNOON and the Isaurium park to-
morrow afternoon. lshpeming is rated
as one of the strongest teams IN the
iron country. but the Calumet PLAYERS
are out to secure revenge for their Ge-
feat at Ishpemlng's hands Thursday
and two fast and exciting games should
ensue.

FAIR TREATMENT FOR ALASKA

1t is than likely that the Senate will not accept with

the vote Of the House of Representatives But the
fact that the House passed the bill shows that the

Alaska may not get full territorial form of gov

ultimately the people Of Alaska will get the kind of govern

AN UNREASONABLE OPPOSITION

The voters of Washington reported to be pre-

mend itself to right thinking and 1t that
enthusiast suggested that the of the sura
gee states unite in cabegram to Premier Asquth of Eng
land urging that he make provision for votes for the
Irish home rule bill Governors Shafroh Of Colorado Hawley
Of Idaho and Carey of Wyoming promptly consented but Gov
enor Hay refused the sensible ground that such inter
ference in the affairs of foreign nation by the Of
American states would be highly improper adding that if Pre-
mer Asquth attempted to influence legislation in the state of
Washington the people of the state would be quick it.
For this position he has been bitterly assaled by the
militant suffragiss of the country This unreasonable attitude
is apt to react against the suagst whole be
