DoubIe-Headers
Cheaper Baseball,
Says Ban Johnson

~HICAGO, Nov. IL
4 Numerous d o u b ! e.
" headers will result
from any attempt to compress
schedule of l54 games into
FIVE and one-half months, in
the opinion of B. B. Johnson
president of the American
League. to-day.
He said that he favored re-
ducing the American League
schedule to 40 games, but II
the National League retains
the l54-game schedule the
American must do likewise.
Playing two games tor
one admission cheapens the
sport" said MIR. Johnson to-
day, and creates in the
minds of the fans the belief
that they are not getting their
moneys worth out of a single
game of nine innings.
Some of the minor leagues
have played the double-head-
er card to the limit, and owe
much of their financial trouble
to that fact.

and square world. The Gods have distributed tHeir favors with some uneveness, but it is a distribution to which all workers through their indifference, their cowardice, or through their willingness to follow the line of least resistance, have themselves been accessory before as well as after the fact.
 Our faults, are not in our stars, nor in our Gods, but in ourselves. Our position, and the position of our class is nor in our stars, nor in our gods but in ourselves-we are underlings. And we have well comed being underlings, and have a assumed the mental attitude of the underliug which is borrowed at titude and is that which the boss alive in his cgoism to his own inter- est would impose upon his em, ployees.
 When the worker attempts to put on airs as of another station, apes the manners and the affectatiOns and morals of what he calls his superiors, he is doing what his mind and the mind of many of his class has been doing for the ages. He has made the boGs's interest, his in terest, his view point identical with the boss sand models his feelings, sentiments, emotions, manner of thought. impulses and often enough his reasoning along the same lines as those which employers put forth to keep them in position of author ity and GftiueEce.
 Alaska is no different to any other section in this regard. For tunes may have come here for many by chance but fortunes came in any event for the few. Very few men in Alaska achieved their po- sit:Cn by means of wageworking, They got next to important claims, obtained finer opportunities and with the ability they had made the m nst Of it. Under ordinary circum- stances any ordinary man would have dore thc same. The point is they were not ordinary circum- stances and extraordinary circum- ztaaces ere for the few. ~
 We might as well rcclize this and the sooner that those who work for wages do realize it, understand their position, the sooner will they dis cover class consciousness and there by achieve solidarity whereby there will come the emancipation of the workers and complete industrial freedom.
 This is not bunk. This is stern fact. But the longer tho master classes can have the workers be lieving that it is piftle and buncombe the longer will the workers be lagg- ing along. the hirelings of the sy- stem and enjoying nothing bettei than falls to the lot of hirelings.

THE CLOSE OF NAVIGATION.

Mighty soon the last boats will sail and Nome will settle down with few of the best of them to it's re- gular routine.
 Far from the madding crowds gnoble strife they will have to in vent strifc3 of their own, and more power to them if they do.
 Things have got keep moving and it is by the friction Of things that we can judge of the swiftness of progress.
 Back to the effete outside 80 those who have been tempting fortune with sojourn up here and if they are no richer at least. under Heav- on, it is their own fault if thoy are no wiser.
 When men. come up here they usually have picturesque visions of millionaired prosperity. After a time struggling against conditions tYcse moderate to a small farm, then a chicken ranch and finally for a good many it is the clam ranch as last resort and final hope.
 This world gets along ill that way by men bending hopes around them so that they cannot always realize where they are at or whither they are going. Thanks to the as- siduous labors of capable passengers ticket agents they have finally rounded up Alaska before the minds eye as little old Aladdin's lamp which by buying ticket to and rubbing shoulders against one mGy extract everything that the hu- man hearts desire.
 Right well the human mmd res. ponds to this elegantly published bull con ard for that reasJ Jn there stray hither many economic waifs who believe and hope that In reach ing Alaska they will land safely OH the shores of oportunIty where a | fortune waits on the order of their | beckoning to theIh.
