A 2 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, TOPFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY. APRIL 1910. m LEAGUESIOFF JACE FOR PENNANT S Time Is Experienced by Eastern Fans us Big Leagues Get Into An imal Race Hot Fight Is Expected. XEW YORK, April 14. Big do- a the ball lots of tUo National m& American leagues. . Ftovidiug tight skies avail every wlrnr, eight umpires will each "toss t a new white ball," eight umpires mli. each iii his finest voico cry Vlay ball T' and in eight cities the porting writers will chronicle (lint Mbc jpuno was on." At least these qjBQtations hare dono son-ice from immemorial and thero is no why thor should bo discarded t Hus late date. Xfcis is the day when nil tho teams ee&al and that marks the initial pwactare or tho initial impetus to the Afes e several million fans. Jot ike National league, Pittsburg '-w3l fee the attraction nt St. Louis, OttKo at Cincinnati, New York at i and Brooklyn at Philadelphia, ia tho American, Cleveland will text the ball rolling" another iufuljoB whose oge commands re- t Detroit, St. Louis in Chi- , Boston in New York and Philn- AJphla in Washington. Waat will the end bcT Call arouno mb October and the answer will prob aKj be ready. Xevcr at the opening of a season lac it seemed more hazardous to ron tons an opinion on the outcome than Ass year. In the National league this Zm 4se to the fact that the return of Cbieber Johnny Kling has made the -time pennant-winning Cubs intact and the doubt, more or general 'except in Pittsburg, us 1 whether the Pirates can again WW mt mi the steady gait they set last year, a gait that landed them aaaexpectedly in first place. Is the Aemrican league the rapid development last year of Phil a del - and Boston and the hard tussle Detroit had to repeat for the second time her pennant perform- tmr.K, makes the picking of a cham- giiradup team this year the merest jliHCOowork. About the only thing that docs assured is that tho first divis- teams in each league will not Effer materially from thoso of last yftacc Pittsburg, Chicago, New York and Cincinnati again look to be cer .takities in the National for the up--yer tier, while in the American, De troit, Philadelphia and Boston ap pear reasonably safe, with either 3few York or Cleveland having a good fcance to wrest from Chicago her Jkerth in the upper division. Jis stand-patters, tho pennant pos aife3itics in both of the big lengues lave Joe Cannon bentcn to a pulp. In flhe National, practically no changes aqspcar in the line-ups of the leading fleams, while Detroit, Philadelphia xbA Boston in the American haven't facmd enough new blood worth men cwcung. New York, Chicago and Cleveland, however, have sewed sev eral new patches to-their qld gar SMcnts and arc hopeful that they will stick. With practically no changes in the personnel of tho leading teams, the festion simply resolves itself down fa the proposition of whether these slayers will improve over their 1909 form. Cincinnati's chanecs are much Brighter that some critics are willing admit, duo to this vory fact. Last yer tho Reds broke a lot of new men .info (the famo and they demonstrated ttat they were of National league caliber. That they should play a flmnger -amc this year is admitted fcy baseball students. .Pittsburg can hnrdly expect to do vtay "better than she did last year, and whether she wina tho pennant again "mH Iupcnd largely on the iinprove HKilt qr failure of improvement sfcown by the other clubs. Chicago . ftas n iteam of veterans and many are iJjKTBdicting that tho team is duo for a iskrwing-down, oven if Johnny Kling, vbo used to be called the brains of Mke Chicago "works," is back on the jot. Steinfeld, Tinker, Shcckard 3mk1 Schulte showed last year that tfttey at least are getting no bettor sad it would not be, surprising if tho wfctcxaa twirlers oamo "untied" this -season. Now York pins her hopes for a Wlter position than last year to an expected improvement in the work of Pitchers Larquard and and Amos, tk promising work of Drucko and Klawitter, two now pitchers, and the bolstering of tho outfield by tho sub stitution of Dovore for McCormick. Tn tho infield, Morklo, tho man who flueo upon a time didn't touch sec m&, will bo at first baso in place of fce vetornn Tennoy, nnd tho foxy s4ay nnd gingery methods of nneient Wed may be missed to such nn ex tent Hint ho will soon cease to warm tho bench. Not ninny persons nro picking Do- ; troit to win a fourth straight pen nant in the American. 1 1 ml either Boston or Philadelphia played early in tho season tho way Ihoy did at the finish, the penunut would never have gono to Tigortown, and it is reason able to suppose that these teams will strike n winning stride enrly in the season this year and not permit tho Jennings crew to obtain such n com uiniidiug lend. The Boston American league team this year, however, is without the sen-ices of hor biggest asset of a year ago, Manager Fred Lake, who this year has been transferred to the hapless Boston "Doves." Lake was given credit last year for much of the Red Sox' success, nnd it isn't on record that Patsy Donovan, his suo oessor, ever gingered up a bunch of players the way that Lake did. Fans irenernlly nre commiserating with Lake that a better fnto than tho Bos ton Nationals did not befall him this year. Both the Cleveland and Now York teams of the Americans have shown much better in thoir spring practice than Comiske's White Sox, who nro virtually n now team this year, with throe new guardians for tho inner works, new outer pickets and several new battery combinations. Connie Mack almost won a pennant last year with his renovated team, and . the Red Sox set a sizzling pace until near the end with a team that prom ised no more than the Whito Sox now promise. So it won't do to count Comiskey out of it. As for St, Louis, Boston and Brooklyn in tho National, and Wash ington and St. Louis in tho American, thero doesn't seem to bo a derrick in existence stronr enough to lift them out of their recent berths near tho bottom of the heap. An added interest in the Nation al's race this year is tho adoption of n strong policy regarding the umpir ing and the protection of the um pires. President Lynch bids fair to follow tho example of Ban Johnson of the American in this respect, nnd it is predicted that tho day of umpire baiting is forever past. DEPUTY ULRICH GRABS CALIFORNIA FUGITIVE B. T. Buck, wanted at San Ber nardino, Cal., for criminal assault, was arrested by Deputy Sheriff Ul- nch yesterday afternoon. Buck had been in this city for sev eral days, but the officers had not succeeded in locating him until yes terday. Ho did not deny his identity, but refuses to talk of the crime of which he is accused. The San Bernardino officers have been notified and will be here after him in a few days., STOMACH MISERY FOR OVEtt SIX YEARS WORLD BITTERLY ASSAILS TAFT Declares President Degraded His Own Office and American Public by Unhappy Rofcrcnco to Roose velt as "Distinguished Citizen:' Think of It!

Declaring that Tnft "degraded not only tho chief magistracy," but the American public, by replying to n cablegram from Signor Cnretti, ninyor of Porto Muurizio, who welcomed Roosevelt, nnd then telegraphed and told him nil nbout it, tho Now York World, which has consistently supported tho Tn't administration, bitterly assails Tnft in its leading editorial today for his action. In rcplv to Cnretti's cablegram. Taft wired tho following reply Mon day, April 11: "Roccived your courteous telegram announcing that Roosevelt has ar rived and was received enthusiastic nlly by the whole population nnd that tho city was proud to welcome him. In reply I beg to nssurc you nnd nil your countrymen that tho American people are very grateful for and greatly appreciate tho reception tho Italians, from tho sovereign to tho humblest subject, accorded our most distinguished citizen." In commenting on tho Tnft mess age, the World's editorial says: "When Tnft was nominated as the Rcpublioan candidate for president, tho World asked the plain question, whether, if he wns elected, ho was to bo presidont or merely a proxy. Sinco then various opinions have been expressed on many phases of Tnft s official career. But concern ing tho message, there can bo prob ably but one conclusion. "It was an amazing, humiliating expression, it degraded not only uu; chief magistracy, but the American republic. It wns weak, sycophnntish, fnlse. "Theodore Roosevelt is not 'Pres ident Roosevelt,' nnd a man who is not the president must not bo our 'most distinguished citizen,' nt least in the estimation of the man to whom that great distinction belongs."
