fpHERB is considerable rejoicing' in
the metropolis todaj'. Tho New
York Senate yesterday pawned the
Sunday baaebal bill. Now the meas
ure goes to the House .and if it meets
with the approval of the members of
that branch of the Legislature it will
be turned over to the Governor. The
4atter already has e.nnounced that he
rlll sign the bill if it passes the Gen
eral Assembly. This statement off
seta idle declarations made by several
opponents of the bill that the Gover
nor Is against Sunday baseball.
'Men who ha-e interested them
Beivea In the measure, however, are
not optimistic In. the House they
sacr-there are. a. number of representa
tives from hick towns in Northern
14ew York who will strcnuouRly
oppose the bill and who are politi
cally influential. These, they point
out, will block passage of the meas
ure. Iollt!cians can be the. most sensi
ble people in tho world. And alpo
they can be the most Idiotic Imaprine
b. dozen, or more petty politicians
whose one religion is tho dollar telj
lnr four millions of hard-working
people, who prnd six days of each
"week In dingy offlces or factories, in
What manner they shall pass their
ne day off?
But they're politicians and politi
cians are mipponed to be czarical..
Tho Empire State will have Sunday
baseball in spite of thoso narrow
minded hicks. They will see ball
games on tho first day of the week
In npite of thoso "tools" who call
themeelvea 'representatives of the
people."
Oh, yes, lt's-o. great life if you don't
weaken end politicians are not the
BtrorvKent humans. In. this shimmering
universe.
