n. Y. NATIONAL LEAGUE
ORGANIZED IN 1883-
HISTORY OF GREAT BASE BALL
ORANIZATION OF INTEREST
JUST NOW.

| New York-(By A. P.)-The New
York National League baseball club
came into being in 1883, with John
B. Day. a patron of the game finane-
ing the project. James Mutrie, whose
name still lives as the Father of the
Giants" induced Day to back the
game had been tried on the old Pels
Grounds, then on Fifth Avenue.
Mutrie managed the club, which
was admitted to the National League
the same year it was organized. The
New York team took the place of the
Troy team which had dropped out OF
the eLague and used the best of the
Troy players, among them Buck"
Ewing. Mickey Welch, Roger Con-
nor, Ed Haskins an dPat Gillespie
All of them were large in stature and
during one game Mutrie watched his
men In action and remarked: "They
are Giants in action as we'll as stat
ure." The name Giants" has stuck
ever since.
Cornelius Van Cott became presi-
dent of the club in 1898, Day having
sol dhis interests. Mutrie was de-
posed, broken hearted, and John W.
Ward became manager. The team
finished fifth in 1894 and second the
following season. In 1895, the late
Andrew Freedman purchased the
controlling interest in the club and
was president for eight years. With
the exception of 1897, when the team
third, it was always trailer
under Freedman. Eleven managers
had the Giants under Freedman. The
list includes George Davis, Jack
Doyle, Harvey Watkins, Arthur Err
win, Bill Joyce, Capt A c.. Anson,
John B. Day, Fred Hoey, Buck Ew-
ing, George Smith and Horace Fogel.
Freedman winally was induced to
give John McGraw a chance in the
office. John t. Brush
purchased the team in 1908 and placed
McGraw in control. The team jump
ed, almost instantly into popularity
with the public and has since proven
)ne of the best financial investments
n the National League.
Under Day and Mptrie the Giants
finished first in 1888 and 1889 The
cam finished second in 1903, the 21st
year of it's life and the initial season
hey won the, ennant but refused to
,lay. the Boston Americans for the
Worlds Championship. The follow
ng year, when the then newly formed
Commission made the
worlds series a mandatory contest
etween ennant winning teams of the
Jational and American Leagues, the
siants won the title by defeating the
Athletics, four games to
ne.
In 1911, Harry Hemstead succeeded
is father-in-law, John T. Bush, as
cad of the club. McGraw was given
new contract by Hemstead in 1917
nd acquired stock in the club. In
anuary 1919, Charles A. Stoneham.
ohm McGraw and Francis McQuade
urchased the controlling stock from
he Brush estate. Stoneman now is
resident.

ductive industry has the expansion been more than in
significant There has been a sort of fictitious pros
perity during n part of this period, but it has been the
prosperity of speculation and exploitation, not the
prosperity which legitimately follows the building of
transportation lines, the opening of mines, the build
ing of industrial plants and more extensive and in
tersivs agriculture.
HAS the Democratic tariff system, the Democratic
taxing system, the Democratic financial system, made
conditions in this country better for the every day
citizen? 1t is true that demngogue arguments were
made for all these measures, and they were plausible
enough, but what of the resultsf Perhaps the real
purpose was to hit productive industry and swat the
rich and the corporations,' but who is actually being
hurt! Perhaps it was really thought that taxes on
productive enterprise amounting to conhscation in
many instances, would take the burdens of govern
ment from the backs of the masses and would con-
tribute to their prosperity, but what good does this
do to the millions out of work in this country, with
the tariff, taxing and financial legislation of the Demo-
cratic era still in full force and effect, now that pro-
ducttve industry has been halted through fear of alien
commercial invasion and domestic political attack?
This word of warning to Republican Leadership.
The people of this country judged Democratic lead
ership last November not on the basis of its profess
sions, or even of its possible intentions, but on the
actual visible results of its performances. All the
demagogue arguments in the world may be success
fully marshalled for or against a given legislative
measure, yet the basis of public decision will not be
the oratory or the editorials that may be uttered for
or against any measure, but the effect upon the pub
lie welfare a year hence, two years hence, three years
hence. IFS given program will put the wheels of in
dustry moving once more in this country, and thus
give profitable employment to the people; if a given
program viii contribute to the restoration. of nor
malcy in the country, with a more reasonable rela-
tionship between private income and the cost Of liv-
ing. then public favor will be bestowed upon the party
and leadership developing suchNa program.
"On the other hand, no matter how many dema-
gogue arguments may be made at the moment for or
against any measure, no matter how much pretense1
there may be of a desire to hamstring the rich and
benefit the poor il the actual result of the adoption
or rejection of given measures is to increase popular
discomfort rather than to decrease It through an i'm
provement of conditions, then nothing can save either
the narfU in n0war ~ thu INT - H. 1arsnn
consequences that followed the substitution of dema-
gogy for craftsmanship under the last administration
and will always punish the political opportunism which
leaves out of account the Fundamentally Of justice and

When will you do o You must

THE SENTIMENT is WRONG

The sordid unsentimental statement-that women
are bad because they want to be-knocks the under
pinning out from under the theories of many a chiv-
arous knight, reared in either the cavalier school or
brought up in the straight laced environment of Puri-
tanism. Both regarded woman not lower but higher
than the angels. Both offered profound homage. The
one a little more snowy and ELUSIVE, the other an I'M
demonstrative and rather silent and modest worship.
Neither accepted the idea that woman could be bad.
Neither would have it SO. To them all things conferred
about woman. She was protected from all the rough
and uncouth things of life. She was carefully guard
ed from all dangers. SANDER and light words con-
corning her were not heard. Men fought for her
purity and good name.
The ideals have held for long years. They still
exist. But they are in strange contrast with what you
see and hear in most quarters today where foreign
elements have been introduced into our population.
These have had a wide influence in shaping the status
of woman, not only among themselves but to a degree
among the older and more settled naturalized popu-
lation.
Wherever you find in the country the old American
stock descended from the original colonists the same
high gard for woman still holds. These sections
wcr re last to grant equal suffrage. They fought
the proposal Re last. T. south, New England,
New York, i lvapia ana Ohio and other states
peopled by thu ID stock. These were the last to- sur.
render, because, right or wrong they held that tt
franchise and participation in public affairs, cheap
ened their women.
Women today do not occupy the sheltered position
they once did. They are taking their chances with
men in the battle of life to greater extent as time
goes on. The home is no longer their exclusive realns
They are SO much in the public that we have grown
familiar and careless of them. In many of the con-
tests they have proved unequal and have gone down
morally. That is why you hear the unfeeling wretch
say of them-they are bad because they want to be.
We cannot subscribe to such sentiment. No wom-
an wants to be bad, or ever wanted to be bad. 1t
was never her choice. 1t may have been her weak
ness but never her design. II she ever became bad it
was most likely through the perfdy Of man when she
placed her trust in him.
Somehow the old style appeals. 1t was beautiful.
II may be changing, doubtless is. But there was a
satisfaction in placing woman upon a pedestal and de-
Tying anyone to take her down.

D AND JUSTICE.

s"The elections of 1872" asserts the National Re-
publican, "were carried by De- ei- leadership on
three principal platform and G. pledges:
First, to reduce the cost OF government.
"Second, to reduce the cost of living.
"Third, to 'pulverize the plutocrats' ard 'paralyze
the %profiteers' through tariff. financial and anti
monopoly legislation which would hit the corpora
tons and rich and help the common people,
Sin 1916 Democratic leadership was retained in
power through a reaffir1nation of these pledges, with
the additional promise to keep the country out of war.
"The record OF Democratic performance now lies
alongside these specific pledges. 1t is q part of the
recent experience of every citizen of the United
States.
Democrats in congress, under the appropriate leader
ship of Senator Hefin of Alabama, are crying out
that If the policies they put into operation during
their eight years. control Of government ae reversed,
we will once more have high taxes, high cost Of liv-
ing, profiteering and favortism for the corporations
ana the rich,' Just as we used to before these states
men gave US the new freedom.
4The eight years of Democratic control which sue
ceeded the Inauguration of President Wilson were
made memorable by increases In the cost of govern
ment, of federal taxes and of the cost of living which
made the figures at which the Democratic orators and
editors inveighed in the preceding Republican period,
seem pitiably Insignificant.
During that eight years more money was spent by
the federal government, more profiteering was done
both upon the government and the people, more huge
fortunes were suddenly made, Chan in all the preced-
ing century and n third Of American history. And
all this without an actual increase In the productivity
of the American people. For instance, the railway
mileage built since 1912 is so small as to be hardly
worth mentioning, and In few lines Of psrmRBent pro-

NO LONGER

Government statistics seldom produce a thrill but
at times a perusal of certain departmental figures
bring a whole lot of satisfaction and pride. The ex-
service man should know that in June, July and Au-
gust the government paid the veterans $ss, oo4, s66. 20.
OF that total about $685. 900, 900 was for insurance,
s33, 000, 900 on account of compensation, and $780,
600, 600 for training allowances. The veterans bu-
reau mails $1,000 insurance checks each month, g.
655 checks of a total value Of $4,000 going out Of
the office each day. There are 207, 1000 compensation.
checks mailed every month, or an average of 1924
checks totaling 1892. 900 each day. It should be ap-
parent to every one that the soldiers are no longer be-
ing neglected.
