Text	[The NL's] management has been largely illustrative of the boss system of legislation in the running of the association. President Hulbert, of the Chicago Club, having had almost supreme control of the league. Despite the drawbacks of arbitrary enactments, and the centralizing tendencies of its working, it has done this much good, and that is, that it has made dishonest play in the league too costly to be longer indulged in, and now it has proceeded against the drunken class of players with a strong hand, and in its own peculiar way is weeding out from the professional field the rank plants which have hitherto impeded the growth of a healthy crops.
