From hand bills posted around Cincinnati
Proclamation by Royal Council, the Base Ball King Boosters
WHEREAS, Max Von Schreiber, has chosen to move our Base Ball Kings to the Columbia Association;
WHEREAS, AJ Helmuth, has taken it upon himself to restore the glory to Cincinnati Base Ball in the Empire League;
IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED, that the traditions of the Cincinnati Base Ball Kings are better represented by the Empire League club and not Max Von Schreiber.
AND FURTHER, that the true fan of the GRAND AMERICAN GAME will continue to attend games at the Avenue Grounds, and cheer the True Base Ball Kings to glory.
