No ball team ever had better

DRY GOODS, HATS AND GROCERIES.
Now if the Enterprise wants to
be fair it will note that the Fred-
erick players objected to only two
men and that these were cut out
and othera substituted. What
more could they ask? Their de-
mand was allowed and they went
into the game confident they
could win the game and carry off
the #100 prize. Snyder people
and the Snyder nine thought so
too. The game was started with
the Frederick fellows making all
kinds of fun of the pitcher, call-
ing him a boy and bragging how
easy (t would be to knock him all
over the field and telling how the
catcher wouldn't be able to hold
anything. The game opened with
Frederick at the bat and when
they made two points the first
inning and Snyder drew a goose
egg they grew more confident
and went wild. But when they
drew goose eggs in the second
and third innings they began to
realize that they were up against
a harder proposition than they
anticipated and when they only
scored one point in the fourth
while Snyder scored two they got
mad.and as the fifth, sixth, sev.
enth and eighth each gave them
goose eggs while Snyder scored
two more in the sixth they got
rattled and lost their heads, grew
madder and madder as the tame
proceeded and there was a notice
able lack of guying the pitcher and
other players. The game looked
like it was lost to the Snyders until
the Fredericks in the 9th inning
scored one and Snyder drew a
goose egg which evened up the
game again but left the Freder
icks still mad. The 10th inning
was called with Frederick at the
bat. One of the Roger boys had
made third and in trying to get
home made one of his famous
rushes with the intention of run-
ning over the catcher and pre-
venting him from catching the
ball. The ball, however, was
thrown true and the catcher had
it before Rogers had reached the
base by from three to five feet
and touched him with it before
Rogers ran against him. Scores
of disinterested spectators who
were near them among whom ,vas
the editor of this paper, saw this
and were surprised that Rogers
should claim that he was safe.
The umpire who was on the line
between first and second was not
in position to see the play as well
aa those who were near and a
crowd went to him lo tell him ho
was wrong. He explained that
he was calling a man on one of
the baaes safe and didn’t mean
Rogers. The other umpire who
wm behind the pitcher and who
their howl.
Now as to imported players. It
is (rue (hat tbe two men barred
from tbe game were imported bul
they were ant professional play
ers. No other (nim »u thc.lino.4jp
was objected to by Frederick and
only one man played wftli Snyder
who does not reside In Kiowa
county. Aside from Ibis man,
tbe iiidinn, all reside in Snyder or
Ibc immediate vicinty of Snyder
except one and he is a Hobart
man but be had been playing with
tbe Snyder team for a month and
bad been in the town attending
Ihe Normul Institute since the
first of .June. The Indian who
played, was a pick up, pat iu to
fill the place of one of the men
who were barred and had never
before played with the Snyder
team. Woodson was the Hobart
man while McClintic, Grant, Try*
or, Hughes and Morris reside iu
Snyder and Tnrr and Fullingim
reside iu tbe country near Snyder.
So tbe charge of imported players
is as false as all the other port of
the story put up by the Freder-
icks as an excuse for not having
carried home tbe coveted $10Q.
Last year tbe Snyder team play-
ed Vernon and lost. They paid
their own expenses and didu’t
beef about It. They also played
the Frederick team for a prize.
They recognized in the Frederick
line up at least three of the men
they had played against at Vernon
but didn’t kick and demand that
they be barred. They played the
game, were defeated, paid their
own expenses and came borne lltte
gentlemen and the Snyder papers
did not jump in and call alt Fred-
erick people robbers and cut
throats.
Contrast, If you will, the con-
duct of tbe Snyder team last year
with that of the Frederick team
tbi* year and it leaves the Freder-
ick team standing iu an unenviable
position. Snyder and the Snyder
team have done everything tbat
was fair and conceded everything
which the Fredericks demanded
except give to them money which
thoy did not win and are oouteut
to leave the whole matter with an
unprejudiced public. The Snyder
