.JOHNS0N'S JOKE
PASSES RIGHT BY
President Gilmore of FEEDER
al League Says Ban won't
Be so Facetious.

Chicago, Sept. president James
Gilmore of the Federal league merely
laughed yesterday when told that Ban
Johnson had advised the Federal
league to play off with St. Paul, tail
enders in the American association.
"A little thing like that doesn't
bother u.s." he said. I'VE are laying
our plans for 1915 now. Some few
things may happen during the winter,
to the advantage of the Feds. that will
be big surprise to the baseball pub
lie. | am not in any position at this
time to intimate what they are
We broke into baseball during one
OF the worst years in it's history. 1t
was year in which even the old
established baseball magnates became
discouraged. We've lived through it
very nicely.
More Stars Signed.
AT the present time we have under
contract about a dozen Of the top
notch players in the American and
National leagues. These players will
remain with their organized clubs un-
I'll the season ends and their contracts
expire. Next year they will be with
u.s.
In the meantime we are develop
ing some young stars in our own
league. and when the 1915 season
opens you will see the Feds with
enough of the American and National
league stars and enough of it's own
stars to put UP a class of baseball that
is the equal to the best in the other
two big leagues"

Ban Johnson says the Feds can
jump upon st. Paul If they want a
worlds series. Evidently Ban hasn't
been informed that the Grand Forks
team has been moved to that CITY.

Under the Act of 1914. providing
that the sinking fund insurance shall
carry the entire insurance on State
property and re-insurc 60 per cent.
thereof in responsible Old Line Com

1t Is natural that few insurance
