The men who have hold of the new [association] propose to go slow and sure, and to studiously avoid any thing that shall partake of the nature of belligerency or opposition to the old League. They are fully cognizant of the fact that all attacks on that body would be highly ridiculous, rebounding upon their heads. The experience of the old organization is certainly great, and the result of its six years' struggle to elevate base-ball, represented in its legislative enactments are such as to command the admiration of all, none more so than the backers of the new body. There is no doubt but that this last Association will begin at the point which the League has reached, adopting the greater part of its rules and laws.
