The cost of the trip to the News and Sun will be somewhat less than that sum, but still it will be consider¬ able. Louis Klopseh, well known iu newspaper circles as Dr. Taltnage’s right hand man and business agent, with Mre.

Mr. Klopseh is a journalist of un¬ usual ability, and these letters, be¬ ing written oji the ground and on matters which interest every man, woman and child in a Christian community, and illustrated from photographs embracing a wide range of interesting subjects, should not be missed by anyone.

When they attempted to make money at the sacrifice of the dignity of the game and at the expense of the player’s rights as a man, they wont too far. The Sale of Flayers. A system which contemplates the sale of a player's future services is too iniqhitous and un- ■American to stand, however dear to the hearts of at the magnates. The league com- mittei has taken pains to point ont how much the players owe to the league, but failed to mention how much they themselves owe to the players. The ease with which they skim over the origin and intention of the reserve rule and its supposed present necessity would be re¬ freshing were it not so evidently intended to mislead. Who and what made that rule necessary? Was it not the unscrupulous van¬ dalism of the managers themselves and their unwillingness to trust one another? As its author, A. G. Mills, has said, it was intended to take the robber manager by the throat and make him been his hands off the playei erg in association clubs. The power this ’Ole gave wa ed in the most most m mer ercenai ry way, and the assertion ertion made made by by the tl committee, uni I that no player has ©vfar been transferred without his conseni. is brazenly false. Compulsory Consent. Do they call it consent when a player must submit or get ont of baseball? Did Bnffinton and id Gunning consent? Were not both Mor- rill I and Wise sold and the fact published before before either either was was spoken spoken to to or or knew knew anything an about it? ? Did Did Rowe Rowe and White go willingly to Pittsburg, urg, or or Sutcliffe Sutcl to Cleveland, or Get- zein, or this same precious trio, Glasscock, * oils? m “ leS the alternative presente out of a livelihood in baseball. The assertion that the new league proposes to transfer pioyere-swttlunU, willful their consent is either ;her u a mistake mistake or or a a « misstatement and when the the term term of of his his contract has expired he is at perfect effect liberty liberty again again to to go go where where he he will w: and nothing in the constitution of the new league or In fata contracts attempts to deprive him of this right. We have no reserve rule, no arbitrary $2,000 limit rule, only one con¬ tract and the full salary written in it; nothing which e..:roaches upon the player's natural rights and when Ire goes from one club to an ther his ''consent” is not forced and no price is passed. The League Violated Contracts, The statement Jknt the contract violated In use siupp 18ST lias never been by the league in letter or spirit is another piece of characteristic* effrontery. The understand¬ ing betweon clubs and players was violated when the league failed, by its conniva vance, a« has been charged, to The secure the repeal the sal of the salary limit rule. spirit of contract was 'as violated violated when whi they refused to insert in the contract the he player’s player’s full salary. It was outrageously violated violated agaiu nc when the class feature law was was passed, passed, and and tt was vio- lated again in every case where a player’s salary was reduced by the operation of that law. We refused to meet the league this fall be¬ cause the time for sncli a meeting had long since passed. gsked, andln so doing has not only si itself and acknowledged the injustice of their former position, but admitted the justice of our claim. Their pretension to having abolished the sales system .-r- is a --a. weak attempt to deceive the public. ... _ In future the player - must ‘hiS buy re¬ lease instead of the club, but the money will fill come just the same from the purchasing club. Difficulties Confronting the Brotherhood It is no simple it the task to of organwo week. a new We league, nor is work a could not postpone action until fall, when we would all be separated and powerless to act together, because in such a condition the league would have laughed at us.

We tried tn meet ‘the but they refused, * " ...... decided to If any one re made our plans plans public from the beginning, iet him; look at the obstacles the league is now throwing in our way ly and the methods it is employing to defeat us.
