New York, March 31.-ln four Cali
fornia cities today the crack of the
bat and bail, in the opening games Of
the Pacific Coast league. ushers in the
1914 season for professional baseball
From now until the end of October on
diamonds scattered from the Martina
provinces Of Canada to the Gulf of
California and from British Columbia
To Florida. there will be a continuous
performance of bingles. hits, steals and

the jccrs of the ardent "fans.
The heads of the many professional
baseball organizations. big and little,
predict the most successful season in
the history of the national pastimc.
During the winter months the mag
mates and managers have been busy at
work in efforts To strengthen their re-
spcctivc teams Some Of the smaller
leagues have been reurganized since
the close of last season. hut the major
leagues and the principal minor orlan-
iZations start the season with the cir
cults unchanged from last year There
have been. however, numerous changes
in club owners and team managers.
The debut of the Federal league in
the big show promises to add interest
TO the baseball season. Speculation $
already keen as TO the success with
which the new organization may meet
also the effects that it will have on the
older leagues and organized baseball
in general. The prospect of general
baseball war has already put the de-
voices Of the game on edge and made
them eager for the fray to begin. The
ultimate results may be disastrous for
players and promoters alike. But it IS
certain to be a great year for tho
fans"

ONE MAN's OPINIONS |
81 N. D. COCHRAN.

/ am able to Judge, Arthur M. Evans
isiwriting more truth about the wal
in Colorado than any correspondent
who has written for any of the big
Chicago newspapers, In what !
have read of his correspondence he,
shows a disposition to be fair, and the
Record-Herald is evidently not CEN
soring his news stories.
His story in Thursdays Record
Herald shows that while laws were
passed by the Colorado legislature to
correct abuses in the mining district
the coal companies violated the laws
with impunity, because they con
troIed all the officers of the law
and hence the law itself For law is
only what officers Of the law make it.
The situation is summed up in the
following statement by Mr.. Evans:
Here is a meltingpot containing
at least twenty-five nationalities, to
be transmitted into American citi-
zens. They come here ignorant and
IMMERSED in the meaning Of constitu-
tional government and the meaning
of citizenship, and the first thing
they learn upon entering the mines
is that the labor laws of the state are
being openly violated. Not only that,
but the violators are safe because
they control the offices of local gov
eminent. If the miner protests he is
told down the canyon for you, which
is equivalent to telling him to leave
the camp"
In Colorado, as nearly everywhere
else in this alleged land of the free
and home Of the brave, the real Grim
inals, the real violators Of law, the
really dangerous citizens so far as
lawlessness goes, are the employers
who have money enough to hire
criminal lawyers or lawyer criminals
to show them how to laugh at the
law and still keep out of jail.
