|Text=<p>[from Frank Brunell's column]  base ball must be operated by groups and the best talent will go into the first and best paid class.  This will be the one big league...  To it will Brooklyn belong and its advent will knock out the present League and present Association.  Isn't this a reasonable view?  I think so.  Therefore it would be as well for Brooklyn and other clubs to make no promises.  Events shape other events and Brooklyn, being a first-class town, must go with its company when the company moves.  The present base ball groups as matched with the present drift of the game are falsely made up, and when the bugle sounds for a new deal, all doors will be opened and all old lines will be ripped up.</p>
