Some are so weak kneed as to think they cannot support a ball team without saloons, but if the temperauco people of that town had a bitof snap and ginger they would raise live bundled dollars iu loss time than it takes to say "Jack Kobiusou" and donate it to the sup port of a ball team in a dry town- let the saloons know for once that their support was not absolutely lieccessary to tho success of a clean sport like base ball. Somo ol the subscribers to stock in the baso ball team of Superior wrote on their ceititicate that This con ti act is to be void it Superior goes dry No payment to bo made until after May 1st, 1010." The amount of slock sub scribed by these men was S'2'i.r. The amount of stock subscribed by strictly temperance men amounted to nearly S'jUO.Oo, and it was well understood by them that in such an event of Superior going dry they would each and every one double their subscriptions. If tho tomperauco people of Red Cloud have tho right spirit, they will get busy and raise the amount that will put their baseball team beyond the need of any help from saloons. As long as the saloons are made the basis of the Unaucial success of any clean sport like baseball, just so long will they have that much more excuse for existence. It is not their over-power-lug love lor the sport that causes them to subscribe more in proportion than somo other business enterprises, but from tho fuct that the thirsty rush to the saloon to slake their appetite for strong drink, and thus put money back into tho pocket of tho saloon keoper who subscribed to the ball team. Baseball is a clean, mtiiily sport, and is guiuing in popularity till over the country, and its financial success in any town should not bo made con tingent upon the contributions of in stitutions selling s til ft' that destroys manhood ami utitlts men for any kind of sport. We certainly hope tho people of Red Cloud will biuco up and keep tho f ran chiso which is already sought after by Kairbury, a town that went dry also. Laii:ii L'ostmaster Stino is in re ceipt of a card from President K. W. Cowdeii ot the base ball association at Red C'lo-id, saying that tho report be ing circulated that tho base ball as sociation had quit on account of the town going dry is untrue, mid that siibscnptloiiH are pouring in and tho money pledged by the saloons i- being I'.tlauced by oilier donations.
