Probably a misspelling of Solons. Solons was a popular newspaper headline writers' term for a group of legislators such as Federal or state senators and representatives.
Columbus, being the capital of Ohio, got its nickname from that convention. Other minor league teams were also called Solons, i.e., Sacramento.
