will do the ownership of the team no
good to open another season unassured of
a club that can fight for the pennant.
For. just or unjust, the ground has been
taken by those who ought to support the
team and those who contributed toward
it, that Omaha is due for a winning ball
team. All the arguing. the explaining, ex-
that position will not change it; of that
we are sure. We should hail with de-
light a transfer to larger company for

have no chance unless we move rapidly.

got into the league headquarters and
chewed the pennant to pieces. The pen

it now will be necessary to have new con-

ever. says that the second division clubs
will refuse to pay for something they
have no chance of getting and the league

race from buying its own pennant and
calling il official.

STATE Commission Government

The Tampa Times is respectful-
ly reminded of the old adage,
"Where there's q will, there's a
way" The Times laughs at the
suggestion, of state government by
commission and argues that the
idea is impracticable, impossible
and really foolish. But if the
people desire it, they can and will
find a way.
The only possible obstacle is
the clause in the federal constitu-
ton guaranteeing to every state a
republican form of government,
which the Times thinks is insur
mountable.
Now, what is a republican form
of government? A government Of
the people and by the people.
The people, acting as a house of
representatives, would propose
all laws and changes in laws; and
the commission would submit them
to a vote of the people and, acting
as senate, would ratify and pro-
mulgatethe resultsof the election.
The commission should be COM
posed of the governor, the nd
ministrative officers of the execn-
tive department and one member
elected from each congressional
district. The courts should re-
main as constituted and the judges
and county officers elected as
heretofore.
If this plan does not suit Judge
Harrison, the legal luminary of
The Tampa Times, he certainly
has the ability TO devise better
one ard he should do SO. At any
rate, he cannot discover u worse
,r more unsatisfactory system of
'tate government than that we
low have; and, instead of jeering
It patriotic efforts to devise bet
err system, he should address the
'nergies of his brilliant mind to-
discovering satisfactory and eff
lent substitute for the incapable
mob (oligarchy) of hundred men
vho assemble at Tallahassee every
wo years and affiict the people
With foolish and unconstitutional
egislation.
