The base ball fraternity had a right to expect a more favorable and liberal policy from the League upon the accession to the Presidency of Mr. A. G. Mills. True, his election to the Presidency can not at one sweep wipe out of every league club the spirit of meanness and roguery which has of late years insidiously crept into some of them, but his hold on the reins will check that association in its course toward rule or ruin, and if he can influence a settlement of the differences between the two bodies, he will preserve the power of the older body and make it as popular as it was some years ago. Mr. Mills must see that it is policy to end this bitter warfare, and that there will then be more than room enough for both parties. The only way, however, to end this contention is for the associations to take hold of it as bodies, and compel each club in each body to live up to and respect mutual laws for the welfare of both associations.
