FULTZ TELLS MEN
TO Be VIGILANT
Addresses Special Communication to
Members on Situation Result
3 ing from Fusion.
IS A VERY COMPLICATED ONE

NEW YORK. Jan. 12.-David r. Fulz,
president OF the Base Ball Players fra
ternlty, has addressed a special com
munication TO the members OF the Or
ganization calling attention TO the COM
plicated contractual relations that will
exist between Federal league players and
magnates under the proposed peace agree
ment, involving organized and indie
pendent base ball interests. Mr.. Fultz
has outlined the situation In part as fol-
lows:
Although the peace agreement between
organized ball and the Federal league
has not been madepublic authoritatively,
II can safely be said that organized ball
will not assume the long-term Federal
league contracts, except where II desires
to doaso,
WIN Likely Respect Them.
at will probably respect these con-
tracts, but will not necessarily assume
them. In other words, II an organized
bail club desires the services OF player
who has signed 'long-term contract IL
will make terms with his Federal league
owner and will then be obliged to assume
the contract In its entirety. This the
player should be careful to see to. as the
NibbS baNN ho iibht " NOiiiPti nun "
sign a less favorable contract than the
one he already has. Where. however. no
organized club desires to assume the con-
tract of any particular player, there win
be. in my opinion. no obligation on the
part Of the organized club to do so. The
PLAYER In this situation will have only
his Federal league owner TO look to.
In order to preserve their rights all
players should get the consent OF their
Federal league owners before signing wNh
an organized ball club. II they 90 not do
this they may lose the advantage OF their
Federal league contract without gaining
any corresponding advantage under theiI
new agreements.
The situation Is very complicated
one and players should be careful to get
competent advice before entering into any
new ccntractual relations

AT the same time, and weeks ear
lier, as commission dealers in New
York affirm, immature fruit Of the
same varieties, received from Cuba,
Porto Rico and elsewhere, to the eX-
tent of tens of thousands of boxes,
was sold without restriction and with
out having the brand of immaturlty
stamped upon it as was unquestiona-
bly the case with the Florida grape
fruit referred to. This green, outside
fruit was in competition with the Flo
rida rroduct. The average consumer
who gets his grapefruit without the
wrapper, does not know, and possibly
does not care, where it comes from.
Knowing that Florida is the largest
producer of this fruit, he is natural
" inclined to condemn it, at least I'M
til the bad taste in his mouth has dis
appeared.
"On the 18th of September, this
year, l visited the fruit auction rooms
in New York city. There were dis
played hundreds of boxes fPorto
Rico grapefruit and oranges. Some
of this fruit had been severely bruis-
ed in a windstorm. Much of it was
small, about the size of our common
oranges, green, sour, and uninviting.
Since that time, within the past month
the inspectors have done in some in
stances what they were negligent in
doing year ago. They have seized
several lots as unfit for consumption,
but they have not rushed to the news
papers with the particulars which
could only be known by a chemical
analysis.
"Florida fruit in all the Eastern
markets is more sought for than any
other fruit, particularly that from
Porto Rico, Jamaica, Cuba and the
Isle of Pines; and Florida fruit, ow-
ing to it's flavor and juciness, COM
mands higher price. All the Florida
grower wants is an even show. Let
him have a square deal. That is a
matter of right for which he ought to
fight. Peace at that price is not to
be tolerated. B. F. TILL1NGHAST."

"The question of the standards for
the maturity of citrus fruits may be
accepted as settled. But the greater
and more vital question of fair play
is one that demands the closest vigil
lance. Florida has begun to market
its new crop of oranges, grapefruit
and tangerines, one of the largest
yields the State has produced, and cs-
timated by good Judges at from 7,060,-
600 to 100000 boxes. Owing to the

ty o. other good business men from
Savannah went along and told the
same story, with the result that the
! legislature by a large majority re-
fused to enact law which would
punish ali official for simply doing his
duty. Pierpont won, and he is still
on deck, and he is making new friends
/ by the score every day.
I Only recently these Legislators were
up for reelection. Then Mayor Pier
pont got into politics. He got some
other candidates out who were friend
ly to him and when the votes were
counted his friends were elected; his
enemies COMPOUNDED.
From ell over Georgia men of high
grade are asking to see this mayor
who wasn't afraid to enforce law
to do his duty-and Mr.. Pierpont is
getting invitations by the great
gross to address this or that county
fair or other public assemblage out
in the state. He goes when he can,
but being a very busy man he can
only accept a small part of these in
vitations.
/ The Palatka News man talked with
Mayor Pierpont on the train Monday;
| he said
THE level-headed business men of
Savannah who six months ago hon.
estIy believed that the enforcement of
the prohibition law would ruin their
business, now say that the saloon
must never come back to Savannah
Crime is a serious drain upon the
resources of society and any measure
that decreases crime should be en-
forced for the good of all. This is
direct result of the enforcement of
this law in Savannah. In the five
months of May, June, July, August
and September of last year there
were 4S7 arrests for drunkenness in
Savannah, and during the same five
months of the present year there
were only 10, decrease Of 377. On
April 30 of the present year, the last
day of open saloons in Savannah,
there were 1853 men and 100 women
in our county convict camps. At the
end of the five months of prohibition
the number of these prisoners had
dwindled to 231 men and AZ women,
reduction of more than so per
cent. This reduction in the number
of prisoners enabled our county to
dispense with the services of fifteen
convict guards.
The prohibition sentiment is strong
throughout Georgia, especially in ru-
raj Georgia. And rural Georgia has
been setting up and taking notice of
this Savannah mayor who dared
to do his duty in face of great oppo-
Sition. Before Mayor Pierpont's
term of office expires he will have
proven to the entire satisfaction of
all patriotic citizens of Georgia CT
ties, that prohibition is GOOD FOR
CITIES AS WELL AS RURAL COM
MUNITIES. Already his work has
resulted in holding up the hands of
timid mayors of other cities, and pro-
hibition sentiment is growing by leaps
and bounds all over the Empire State
of the South.
Let the News make a prediction just
here: By the time Mayor Pirepont's
term expires Georgia will begin to re-
alize that law enforcing officials are
the style, and there will be a demand
all over that State for the man who
set the style to run for Governor.
And if he runs on a platform of law
enforcement, he will be elected, for
the people will know that Pierpont
will do what the law directs.
