"What do you know about the
Feds?e
That seems to be the question most
asked these days. You can talk
about this and talk about that, but
If you talk about baseball you are
sure to talk about the Feds. And
that's what's making the new league.
Publicity is coming the way of the
outlaws" in bucketfuls, as the say
ing goes. They seem to be on the
job at all times, and there appears
to be plenty money back of them.
Their start was rather slow, but once
on their way they made every post
q winning one, until now they are
recognized as having arrived. When
the Feds first broke out with big
league airs in big league society the
organized baseball troupe called them
a joke. AS they became stronger the
bigger the joke they became, so the
regulars" tried to tell us. Now.
though, there isn't any joke. The
Feds are the real thing. They will
be very much in the swim when their
season opens, and they promise to
keep their heads above water for
eVermore.
G
The Federal League is an OUTLAW
league, and "outlawing" in any sport
is a poor proposition. Sport is sport,
and the good people who patronize
sport have, as a general thing, a
horror for the intruder. In the case
of the Feds, though, this is not so
much so. AT first there was a tend
ency to scott at the intruders, but
now they are looked upon as possess
ing legal rights and their efforts are
being respected. Their circuit has
been arranged with an eye more to
secure big backing than to make the
enterprise a paying one. Such poor
business methods will not prevail
long The circuit will have to be
changed and two or three or maybe
four of the minor league burgs will
naturally have to be dropped. Kan
sas City and indianapolis are not big
league towns and everybody knows
it. Buffalo, too, belongs to the mi
nors and she must have a winning
ball team at that to make it go.
Buffalo, by the way, is large enough
to dabble with the majors, but her
population isn't Just the right kind.
On the extreme east side she has a
foreign population that won't be-
come sufficiently American to take
Newark evening star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1916, 1914-04-10

to our great national game for years
and years. On the extreme west
side there Is another kind of foreign
population that doesn't take to base
ball in their first, say, ten years in
the country. St Louis, with three
teams in the field, will never do.
With two teams, both sides generally
lost money. So, to sum up the situa-
ton. there are just four of the eight
clties-Chicago Pittsburgh. Baltimore
and Brooklyn-of big league calibre.
The other four-St. Louis, Kansas
City, Indianapolis and Buffalo-will
have to be dropped in time.
@
At the very start of the Federal
League agitation, few there were who
really thought the proposition would
go through and when the leagues
schedule was published yesterday
many's the bet was won and lost
Other bets also hinge on the Feds
opening the season, and next Monday
afternoon when the old bell rings,
more money will change hands. The
Feds have come-they are here-and
we will have to give them credit
give them a show. They started out
on a shoestring, and, like Charley
Murphy, of Chicago, have worked
themselves into a leather factory.
They will open their season next
Monday and they will play their
schedule of Id games out just like the
other big leagues. They will want To
Join hands with organized baseball,
of course, but they will remain de-
flant until that time comes. And
the time will come and there will be
a lovefeast and the third major
league will be a reality. That will be
the end of baseball strife for many
years, and there may never be another
war. Three leagues are about the
limit They will give the fans con-
tinuous baseball in the larger cities,
and that is what is wanted, 1t would
seem.
C
The outlook for baseball this year
doesn't appear to be very promising,
and the prediction is freely made
that the club that earns money In
the next six months to come will be
a lucky club indeed. In the Inter
national League, times promise to be
mighty hard and every time we
think of poor Tom Fogarty and his
Jersey City proposition we feel like
shedding one of those large-sized
crocodile tears you hear so much
about. We can almost hear Jack
Dunn, of Baltimore, bemoaning his
fate from this distance, for the Feds
in Baltimore are going to get the
big play down there. Buffalo will
have opposition and it will be inter-
esting to see how far the magnates
up there will go when the shoe be-
gins to pinch financially. Before the
fight was hardly on, the Bison club
owners were willing to quit and sell
out to the Feds, and taking that at
titude as a sample of their gameness
the OUTLAWS" may be alone in the
fled up in Buffalo before the sea-
son is over Montreal, with a man
behind the club who can stand his
losses and who boasts of his losses,
must be passed up as not cutting
figure one way or the other. All the
other clubs in the league will also
lose money on the Montreal PROPOSE
tion, but they have been forced to
put up with the situation year after
year. The Providence club owned by
Detroit, hasn't many friends in that
town, and the press is saying some
harsh things about the team as a
playing proposition.

Just three clubs in the international
League show promise of doing much
business in the season to come. OF
these, Newark should do as well as
any The fact that We won the
championship last year may not help
any, for the fans will want the
Tigers to get off to flying start and
remain there, or else they will put
them on the pan. However, If the
boys play good ball they Will get
good support, for just so many New
ark fans go to the ball games no
matter where the team shows in the
standing. Rochester, after her great
fight last year. should be very popu-
lar in her own town this year. She
has had her pennants and she has a
manager in John Camel who surely
knows how to lead a ball club. The
Rochester fans like him, too, but
considering the great work he has
done for the town the citizens haven't
been overland to him. Toronto is
what is known as good ball town.
The fans are liberal in their support,
and a winner in the Canadian city
is a mint, and even with loser the
magnatesI make money.

There you have the outlook in the
International League, but President
Barrow takes the opposite view. For
that we give him credit. He may
be jollying himself, but he is going
to smile as long as he can. He must
know that the Feds will hurt in
Baltimore and in Buffalo and he must
know how things are in Jersey City
and in Providence, and he surely
knows all about the always losing
propos lion in Montreal. Yet the bold
president bravely faces this distress
ing situation and declares that the
Federals are a joke and that the pros
poets for a big season in the Inter
national League are bright We hope
Mr.. Barrow is right, but when the

UNCLE SAM IN BIG BUSINESS

The Kaibab forest, in Northern
Arizona, owned by the nation, is
said to be one of the most beauti-
full in America, as we'll as one of
tile most heavily wooded tracts in
the southwest. 1t contains two
billion feet of timber, more than
half of which is mature and ready
for the ak. 1t would be pleasant
to visit the forest-still pleasanter
to have that billion feet of ripe tim
ber on the market instead of deter
iorating in remote grandeur.
To get this timber out, however,
it is necessary to build a railroad
about two hundred miles long, as
we'll as sawmills and other arpur-
tenances-requiring altogether an
investment Of some three million
dollars. Nobody would make any
such investment except with the
certainty Of having great deal of
timber to handle over a long term
of years.
Accordingly Secretary Ho ston
has decided to sell one billion feet
Uf this timber to whomever will
bid highest under the terms fixed
by the government. This is the
largest offering of timber ever
made by the government. 1t is de-
cidedly big business; but only big
business can handle the problem in
volved. The investment to be made
in connection with this timber sale
will benefit the region in collateral
ways by making accessible re.
sources that are now locked up.
Incidentally it will give a rail
route to the Grand Canyon from
the north. We used to think Uncle
Sam was unduly afraid Of big bust.
