"Murph," as he Is known. was alone
in the local Jail and found the isola-
tion irksome. He began by smashing
the interior furnishings to smither-
eens. A French 255 or a Boche bomb
could not have cleaned out the build
ing any better. Stoves. benches.
tables, chairs, several cell doors all
went the same way.
Amused but not satisfied, Murphy
inspected tho walls, found vulner-
able spot. set to work and tore out
several feet of the masonry. Leaving
the Jail, Murphy met two men on the
street and before parting with them
said:
I'm not sore at any one. didn't
mind II in there until they left me
alone. I won't stand for that kind of
treatment"
Murphy is noted hereabouts for his
wonderful strength Contrary to the
oft preached refrain OF Prohibitionists
he is a hard drinker. He was ar

Fair trade practices are normal

en- the ono hand, and unfair compe-
tition on the other"

tated by the men who are engaged
In the commercial activities that were
burdened with them.

Commission has placed its stamp OF
disapproval, he mentioned misbrand-
ing of articles; adulteration OF prod
ucts and misrepresenting them as

ployes; the payment OF bonuses by
manufacturers to statesmen or 1op-
Ibers and retailers; obtaining business
or trade secrets Of competitors by
espionage on their plants; bringing
about breach of competitors con-
tracts enticing away valuable en-
ployes of competitors: making false
and misleading statements concern
ing the products of competitors; raise
and misleading advertising; threats
of suits on patent infringements; tam
pering with and misadjusting ma
chimes sold by competitors; establish
ing trade boycotts against compet-
ftors; initiating the products or other
producers under brands similar 10
their own; misrepresenting the ma
terials in competitors products; mis-
representing the sale OF stock in cor
porations; sale of rebuilt articles un-
der the guise Of being new; harasslng
competitors by fake requests Tor bios
and estimates; giving away goods In
large quantities to embarrass compet-
ftors: selling goods at or below cost;
bidding up the price of raw materials;
loaning to dealers the utensils TOT

line; maintaining concealed subsidu-
aries: diverting shipments OF raw ma
terials belonging to competitors; CIV,

bated clauses Of the League of Nations
covenant will be explained in detail
in future campaign statements by
President Wilson, according to- present
White House plans.
The president will carry on what
Democrats term an educational cam

believes the trainers of the league had
in mind when they wrote 1t.
Meanwhile, Governor Cox and other
leading Democrats will demand from
the stump that Senator Harding
elaborate his position on the league
and treaty.
This program, arranged here recent
ly between administration Democrats
and E. H. Moore. personal friend OF
Governor Cox, will make the league
the overshadowing issue of the cam
paign, Democrats hope. In his first
campaign statement, Wilson declared
the election Is to be genuine call
referendum and that the whole worlo
is waiting ''for your verdict"
The president said: The country
has been grossly misled on the treaty
and league and their opponents have
been left to invent an 'Americanlsm

American League Holds
Lead For World Series
Not Only Worlds Titles Won, But in Number of Games
Captured National League Is Far Behind.

senior league leads in runs scored in
worlds series by 2s4 to 27s.
First Was in 1905.
AS between the eastern and western
divisions of the major leagues the for
mer has won nine series and the latter
six. being the same advantage the
American league holds over the Ma
tional. OF the fifteen series already
played seven were distinctly eastern
affairs while five were played entirely
in the west, with three intersectional
series. The first series under the Ma
tionaI commission in sos was between
two eastern clubs, the New York
Giants defeating the Philadelphia Ath-
letics. Then for four years the big
games were played entirely in the
west, the two Chicago teams clashing
in 1906; the Chicago Cubs and Detroit
in 1907 and 1908, and Pittsburgh and
Detroit in 1909.
East and west came together in a
worlds series for the first time in
1910, when Connie Macks Athletics
defeated the fading Chicago Cubs. For
six years after. from 1911 to 1916. the
worlds baseball championship was de-
cided in the east and then came two
intersectional series, followed by an
aH-western series between Cincinnati
and the Chicago White Sox last year
The only time that a worlds cham
pionship has been made city affair
since the National and American
league champions have been contest
ing for the title was in 1906, when the
Chicago White Sox. then known as the
"ditless Wonders" defeated the Chi
