''N Nt '''' mall N ny every violent fan. and he has learned to endure almost any kind of personal abuse possible. II the epithets and ac. cusdHous made by the Highland ian toward Cobb were half as bad as the Detroit players claim. it was a case for violence The wonder to me Is that other spectators could sit and listen without taking hand iii it and beating up and throwing out the person using such language.
 President Johnson states that all a player has to do is to appeal to the umpire This is correct in theory. In practice about all a piat er gets is taunt from the um- pire, and protection from the club is almost as rare as from the um- pircs. On both grounds in New York the private police employed Tor years by the club owners to re place the city guardians are among the violent rooters. know one who works at both grounds. who on one occasion melted the crowd and impored the fans to beat up Frank Chance.
 The players are organizing for protection not only against such abuse as they are at times forced 10 endure, but against what they think is the injustice of the rulers of baseball The players of the Detroit team realize. perhaps as much as President Johnson does. the necessity of discipline. They are pretty square. decent manly set of men - and not hot-headed young sters. Ty Cobb is not the most popular fellow in the world among his own team mates. There are some who do not like him and who have had personal trouble with him but every one of them stuck to him. They knew the proyocation and considered the nasty sentence unjust If Cobb had been tried. al. lowed to state his side of the case, and to prove what was said to him. i haven't the slightest doubt that the punishment, if any, would have been light and there would not have been d strike | believe Pres, dent Johnson might have said: I'll fine you and suspend the fine il you go and soak him again-but somewhere other than on the field
 The baseball officials do not ap. pear to understand the temper of the players. They figure that they ought to be satisfied because they are more prosperous than they ever were. But they are not, and they never will be until they have the right Of trial, and voice in the law, making and the executing of the laws.
 There will be a strike of players some day that will cripple organized baseball. It will be a fight for principle, and not quick action such as taken in the Cobb case. The de mand for a chance in the existing form of government in organized baseball will come from the play CTS, and when it comes more than half of the club owners will be found in sympathy with their men

A FEW THOUGHTS AS WE PASS


The following paragraph is from
the Newark Journal;

Record want to hammer on ION
EouOh Eomnbc,l for? He is defeated, and

GIdfeld at this time and Campbell
baI has lost nothing by reason of MS
defeat. He is clean, worthy = anu "a
ambitious young man, and It IS
very probable that his political Ca
rcer IS not ended"
The Record has not been ham
oorina" on Tom Campbell, either
since he got down Or before he got
down. In an article two weeks
ADO this paper had something TO
cav about certain campaign meth
ods used by Mr.. Campbell, but at
that we believe our readers will re-
member that we said some good
things for Campbell. And we
didn't suffer any unusual or extra
ordinary stretch of conscience in
doing so either

Speaking of "hammerins on
people, we respectfully invite your
undivided attention to the following
paragraph, also from the Newark
Journal;
John Hinemon and Joe Lyons

Probably the Journal could not
have linked together the names Of
two men any more widely separated
in habits and character than John
H. Hinemon and Joe Lyons. Yet
the Journal doesn't hammer" on
anybody. Joe Lyons is the reco9-
nized representative OF the liquor
interests in Arkansas. lie intests

tive the state has had for more
than three years, Joe Lyons, and
all his kind, ought to be made keep
his Shiny hands and his Shiny dol
lars out of the legislative work Of
the state and out Of the politics Of
the state. On the other hand, John
II. Einemon Is one Of the best and
truest men in the state. In his
campaign for governor four years
ago he announced for statewide
prohibition. And, although this pa
per did not favor the enactment Of
a statewide liquor law, believing
that local option Is the surest and
best method of controlling the
whiskey evil, 1t supported Mr.,
llinemon just the same, because it
was convinced that he was the
cleaneSt man who had offered roI
governor in Arkansas in many,
many moons II Is a well known
TACT that many newspapers, and
many citizens, who are continually
clamoring for statewide prohibition
did not support Mr. Hinemon in
that race, but fought him tooth and
nail, and really did support q man
for whose election every saloon
man in the state was actively at
work Any one who knows of the
llIe the work and the character of
John II, Hinemon, If he wishes to
40 him justice, will not link his
name as q co-worker with Joe
Lyons or any of his stripe. II Is an
unfair criticism of Mr.. IIinemon to
say that, because he could place no
