A LTHOUGH the company denied the
charge and said all sorts of rid
iculous things, through their attor-
neys, about the government interfer-
ing with honest, square, legitimate
business, etc, etc., the State of Mis-
declared the International Harvester
Co. a corporation in restraint of trade
and not only ordered them out of the
state but imposed q dne of S25, 900 for
violation of the states antitrust law.
The supreme court has now decided
that Missouri's law is good and valid
and in every way all right, that the
farm machinery moloch was organ,
lied for the purpose of throttling all
attempted competition in its line, and
it is ordered not only to separate itself
from the s25, 900, but to vamoose the
state.

tunes record of fatalities in the
u various coal mines of the United
States is given as 346, and it is not
improbable that the year through

natural, and more or less horrible,
deaths every month. The average
monthly toll last year was more than

IF q measure recently introduced in
I the House by Representative Brit
ten, which is made to include con-
gressmen, should become the law,
many members of both houses would
be deprived of one of their largest
sources of income-with some of them
even larger than their salary. Brit
tens bill makes it q penal ofense for
any cabinet officer or cabinet clerk to
lecture for pay, other than actual ex-
penses, and prohibits senator's and
Representatives lecturing for pay while
congress il in session. The bill pro-
poses that offenders be fined elO, 900
or imprisoned two years, or both.
Plainly the measure is q dirty fling
at Secretary Bryan, but inasmuch as
Mr.. Bryan, unlike many members of
Congress, has not neglected his Off
cial duties to 60 lecturing, it falls far
short of its aim and reflects no credit
upon Britain.

THE festive cyclone has arrived UNI
L usually early ;this year, and has
made itself felt in many places where
it was hitherto unknown. The past
week has recorded two in Iowa, one in
Floyd county, where the damage was
confined to the destruction of build
ings ETC., without loss of human life,
and the other at Sanborn, in the north
western part of the state, and in which
six people are said to have been killed,
Cyclones are peculiar brutes, and no
respectors of locality-are just as
likely to break loose in North Dakota
rs in Oklahoma, Kansas or Nebraska.
It is no indication of cowardlce to duck
into a cyclone cellar any time you see
heavy black and green clouds ap-
preaching from almost any direction.

WOLGAST STILL
AF TER co WITH
?. N FARLAND
Ex-Champion Says He viii Fight
Packey at Catchweights- Tniry
Willing to Sign.
By Eddie Geiger.

/NHICAGO, ILL. Jan. 30.-Adolph
Y Wolgast still harbors a desire
to get Packey Mcfarland into
a 16-foot ring. AID let this be known
yesterday when he told his manager,
Tom Jones. to grant any concession
asked in order to get the stockyards
wonder" to sign up for ten round
set-to.
These were Wolgasts Instructions
to Jones and then Tom made this
announcement:
II want the public to know that
AID Wolgast is now ready to fight
Packey Mcfarland under any condi-
tions. To prove to him that we are
on the level with the offer we will
affix our signature to a contract al
lowing Packey to come in at catch
weights, and we will give him the
privilege OF cutting the house any
way he sees fit. The only thing we
demand of Mcfarland is that he post
$1,000 with any reliable person to
guarantee that he will go through
with the contest, and he must sign
away his privilege of sueing for the
forfeit in case he changes his mind
about fighting"
That Jones does not think much of
Netherlands contracts to fight was
SHOWN when he offered to wager
500 that Mcfarland calls off his
match with Gibbons. Jones asserts
that Packey ran out Of three fights
with Wolgast because he believes
AID was too tough for him. Since
Gibbons knocked out McAllister I'll
bet the stockyards man has been
raking his memory for an excuse to
call off the contest. He will find
one. too, before another two weeks
pass"
But Emil Thirty, speaking for Nc
Farland, says Jones Is bluffing. "I'll
take all the money he has to offer
on these conditions" said Emil. II
talked with Mcfarland and he is
tickled to death with the match"
AS TO fighting Wolgast, Thirty says
he will sign up at once, but he does
not think Jones Is sincere.

the club that would pay the most for
them-well, in a couple of seasons one
or two wealthy clubs in each league

Then, of course, there would be no
pennant race.
The reserve clause enables Brook
lyn to hold Nap Rucker as long as
Brooklyn wants him. 1t enables De-
wretched Cardinals to cling to Ko-
netchy, and the equally wretched
Reds to hang on to Hoblitzell-al-
ways granting that none of these
gents jump to the Feds, who are not
respecting the reserve clause.
And that is the only way to make
a pennant race. Otherwise, some
financially feeble club might pick up a
star before he was developed, spend
three years making him into Cobb
or a Jackson--and then see him auc
ton himself off to a club that could
overbid the club that gave him his
start.
Manifestly, that wouldn't be right
Also, 1t would bust up baseball.
