the ones most sought by the out

of dollars yearly to make the great
national game what it is today good

just how substantial organized base

built up from nothing to our great ma

As a result of the baseball war,
there will be winner and loser,
of course, and there should be no
halfway battle about it. The war
if war there is-should be to a finish,
and to the victor should go the spells.
The cry of the defeated ones that
they be taken back into the fold may
be heard, but there should be no es-
pecial wave of sympathy in such a
case. The fight. IL on, should be a
fair one, and those who are most con-
cerned should be the sole Judge of
the wages of the confiist.

| The presence of the late manager Of
the Cincinnati Reds, it is believed,
would rather weaken than add to
the strength of the Supcrbas. IL
Tinker had accepted Mr. Ebbets's
terms they would have to be the
highest in the club and it is claimed
by wise old owl who has the Brook
Ign club affairs ut heart that such
men as Rucker. Daubert and Wheat,
any one of whom is worth mora
money than Tinker. would OF relish
such condition at oil. The Brooklyn
players are we'll paid. it 8 declared,
but they are not overpaid. To have
brought Tinker into the fold at tre-
mendous salary, such as he demand
ed the claim is made would have
created dissension in the organiza-
ton that would have made Tlnker's
presence loss instead of au asset.
So maybe after all. what for a mo-
ment appeared to be hard luck for the
Brooklyn club may eventually turn
out to be the biggest streak of for
tune that has ever crossed the path
of Charles Hercules Ebbets.
@
The Federal League will have many
a toss and turn before 1t finally gets
its crucial bump. Right at the open
ing of the proceedings James "A. GIL
more, president of the Outlaws"
seems TO have received the cnnitv of
some of the more powerful club own
ers. The president has been accused
OF displaying inferior iud~ment md
the fact has been pointed out that he
should give more attention to big
New York. where the club owners
want to locate, instead of spending
so much time on the smaller cities,
Toronto for instance. which the mag
mates are not anxious to include in
their circuit. 1t Is said positively that
the selection of Toronto is a blind"
pure and simple but that the out
laws" We're compelled to make an
eight-club circuit and that they sim
ply named Toronto to complete the
league.
1t is also understood that the
methods of the outlaws in organ
izing the clubs in the various cities
are looked upon as rather unusual
is being tried wherever ii is thought
that such a scheme will get the
money, and in other places other
schemes are worked to interest the
natives. In most cases, ii is said
failure has been the result, and it
is no sure thing that more than half
the clubs now named as holding
regular membership in the Federal
League will not be in the list when
the season of 1914 gets under way.
@
There isn't d doubt, of course, that
the signing of Tinker has given the
outlaws" some prestige and much
publicity, but it will require a ton
or so of the good old coin of the
nation to make the organization a
real live issue. The Federals may
get by, in way, and they may win

The big leagues, but in the end il is
