MONEY GOES UP
TO COVER DEBTS

JOHNSTOWN, Pa, Jan. 3.--On what
Altoona will do regarding their Tri-
State League franchise Will depend the
action of Johnstown. If Il is the inten-
tion of Altoona hackers to simply pay
up and then sell out, Johnstown will
lose no time in disposing of their
franchise. II is generally believed
that Altoona will not be able to sup
port a team this season.
The Johnstown Tribune Of yester-
day says:
THE Johnstown franchise In the Tri-
State League has been saved from be-
ing forfeited to the league. At the
very last minute a number Of the men
on the notes covering debt Of $3.50
against the club raised the necessary
money among themselves to pay of
the debts OF last season that had tc
be settled before today 10 keep the
Johnstown franchise from being
taken over by the league.
The future OF the Johnstown club
will not be known until after the an
nual Tri-State League metieng in Har-
risburg at $50 o'clock, Tuesday after
noon, January 9. At that time IL will
be settled what Altoona is to do
sell out or continue in the league The
Altoona hackers paid up all their bills
too. last week, in order to prevent
their franchise from being forfeited
If Altoona elects to make another Or,

PLANS OF The
TRI-STATE
Session Will be Most Import
ant Since Organization
Of League
No CIRCUIT CHANGE
LIKELY, LEADERS SAY

The annual meeting Of the Tri-State
League will be held in Harrisburg
next Tuesday with the session starting
at $50 O'Clock. This meeting will like
ly be the most important held by the
league since it's organization in 1904
as the affairs of some of the clubs are
in a decidedly shaky condition and on
the action taken next week depends
the future of the league.
The assembled magnates will dis
cuss the makeup of the circuit for the
coming, season, the salary question:
the non-optional player rules and var
ious other matters concerning the sue
cess of the league for 1912 A new
board of directors will also be elected.
The makeup of the league, from
present indications, Will be the same
as last year. There is only one chance
now that it will be changed and that
is the failure of Altoona and Johns
town to get their fences built for the
season. Both clubs have arranged to
pay up their Indebtedness to the ma
tional association and the league and
prevent the forfeiture of their fran
chises. This action puts them in line
for a getaway in the coming pennant
race. Both clubs, however, may sell
out and the teams be transferred ~
other cities in the eastern section OF
the State This is hardly possible and
the chances are that both cities will
be represented in the league this
coming summer
All clubs are expected to place bonds
of $4,000 to fulfill the league require
ments and retain their franchises, but
owing TO conditions in most of the
cities the time limit for bonds will
likely be extended until February /
Quite a number of the teams have
not decided upon managers for the
1912 season, there being a tendency
on the part of a majority of the clut
owners to defer this matter until af-
ter the annual meeting so as to be
sure about sevral things. Any action
on the part of the league regarding tho
non-optional agreement, the club oi
individual salary limit and several
other matters that may come up fol

clubs i'm the matter of managers. Will

next game by the addition of Mark
McDonough and John Lacey. These

ROOSEVELT NOT THE FARMERS
FRIEND.

Hon, N. j. Bachelor, head OF
the National Grange, in a. speech at
Wellsyille, N. j., warns the farmers
against following Col. Roosevelt,
who, he says. is deluding them with
false pretenses. After showing that
the third term candidate is in favor
OF entire free trade with Canada
Mr.. Bachelor says:
.'Mr. Roosevelt seems to have
very little respect for the farmer,
for he Is on record as saying that
the average farmer is mot to be
compared with the average cowboy"
Mr.. Bachelor then shows that
the Roosevelt platform endorses q
tariff to be Established primarily
IN the interest of the wage worker
and the consumer" and adds that
this shows no consideration for the
farmer. In addition, Mr.. Bachelor
says:
s'Mr. Roosevelt has gone further
ana has made George w. Perkins
Of the Harvester Trust, the manager
Of his campaign Mr., Perkins Is
chairman Of the finance committee

many, which il the Harvester Trust

especial favor and refused to let \
be prosecuted as a trust under the
