OBJECT TO DRAIN.
Pacific Coast League Opposes Draft
ing Of Players.

San Francisco. Calf. July 14.-At .
meeting Of the directors of the Pacific
Coast Baseball league here, President
A. r. Baum and Frank Leavitt were
named a committee of two to prepare
. resolution demanding of the National
and American leagues that they cancel
their right to draft players fr',m the
cast league. The resolution will be
drawn Immediately and forwarded to
the majority organizations.
For years past the Pacific Coast
league has been drained Of some Of its
finest players by the big leagues. As q
rule the best the coasters received for
their men is the draft fee, which in
most cases il far too small to cover the
value OF the player.
Although much. other business Il
said to have been covered by the mag
mates, nothing else Of importa nee wal
made public. However. there IL an un-
derlying feeling that something more
serious and pressing than the resolu-
ton to the major leagues prompted The
calling Of the special meeting. Yet
nothing could be learned.

To-day the vast majority OF the people
seldom, II ever read a newspaper or
know what goes on in their country
The ignorance of the masses was de-
monstrated not long ago at Sonora.
There. when the Constitutionalist army
trlumphantly marched in. the people
were shouting Long live Madero,"
They had no idea that Madero had long
before been assassinated by agents OF
Huerta, and that Huerta himself had
been compelled to fee the country.
While realizing the gigantic task
ahead OF the new administra ton, Mr.
ROLAND Is not at all dismayed. lie
hopes and believes in the people i'm
plicitly. He IL convinced that the Mex
leans are eager to learn. and always
were, but never had the chance.
Mr.. ROLAND himself is an excellent
example Of the new democratic spirit
OF the present Mexican Government.
When the last uprising started he was
prosperous engineer. with offices in
Mexico city. He offered Carranza his
services. But Carranza replied: II have
fifteen engineers in my army. What |
need il pedagogues. educators. nave
plenty OF soldiers"
Mr.. ROLAND was then appointed 10

! United States.

OF La Paz, Lower California. and "a
