CLEAN BASE BALL

The drastic action taken by the
base ball authorities during the week
was necessary TO clean the sport OF
all taint OF crookedness. One OF the
best base ball machines ever assembl-
ed was wrecked by Pres. Comiskey at
great financial sacrifice to himself in
order to purge the sport.
Base ball is our nationall pastime.
It's being corrupted by gamblers
would have driven the American pub
lie away from It, although they love
II. For that reason the sacrifices OF
the men at the head of organized base
ball are worth all 1t costs. Base ball
must be cut loose from the gamblers.
In this connection II might be in
place to mention that Iron county has
had some OF this undesirable exper-
dence lately and II came directly from
the suspicion that small gamblers,
incorrectly called Sports" conspired
70 corrupt persons interested with the
game. The suspicion that the Labor
Day game in this city was purchased
win not down. The Diamond Drill
has been active in its efforts to
thwart just such deals as is commonly
understood, was made on Labor Day
IT feels that 1t owes that much to the
lovers OF base ball. In a recent issue
tt condemned the gambling element
that caused the trouble and as result
of that article an action has been
started against the editor hereof.
We welcome the action for II will
give us an opportunity to go through
with this thing-and we intend doing
Bo--and either establish that there
was no connection between the gam
bling element and those in the game
or that there was such collusion. Our
position in this matter has been great
ly misrepresented by those who know
little OF the facts In the case. We Will
welcome any information from base
ball lovers all over the county that
win tend to clear up this matter. We
have considerable evidence now In our
possession and we expect to get more
The people OF the west side are just as
much interested In having clean base
ball as those OF the east. It's the tin
horns that prostitute clean sport to
a nefarious end that causes all this
contention. Let's make base ball
clean in Iron county as well as in Chi
scago.

NEED A LAW ENFORCEMENT AS
ISOLATION

|
ISOLATION
A resident OF the old first ward OF
this city told a representative OF The
Diamond Drill last Monday morning
that last Sunday night was like "the
days of old on the Great Western
location in the number OF drunks that
paraded the streets and caroused a.
bout during the night. Our informant
stated that II is the first time in years
that any such disturbance was in evil
dence there and concluded that the
lax enforcement OF the laws is respop-
sible for the boldness OF the violators.
A gentlemen from the west side, in
telling OF the open faced violation over
there, stated that recently a business
man OF Iron River, while out motor
ing near that place ran out Of gaso-
line. He started TO walk to town for
a supply and was picked up by two
men who came along in an automobile.
They asked the man his business and
upon being told replied, we are in bus
mess, too;we are making and distrib-
uting moonshine, or words to that ef-
feet, seeming to be kind OF proud OF
their business.
These incidents are cited to show
the degree OF openess that liquor law
violations have come to in Iron county |
II is bad enough on this side but in |
and around Iron River II is many
times worse.
All OF which leads us to the con-
clusion that there Is no use trying to |
do anything with the present officers |
What this county needs is the forma
tion OF law-enforcement association |
among the good people OF the county |
with officers who have no political |
axes to grind and who will attack this
condition fearlessly. Iron county. II
