It is a pitiful conclusion to 2 campaign based upon such ardent promises. It is an extraordinary thing that those who were loudest for war seem now to be most determined that America shall velinquish the duties which have failen to her lot as a result of the war. During the progress of the conflict, how often did we hear upon the lips of all our people the expression ‘“this must be the last war.” What heart is there ®p cold that it does not warm to such f cause? Who will zonfess that his @rdor has been so chilled that he is willing that America should become a placker mation and attempt to draw back, with the task unfinished, into fhe fanced security of self-isolation? Talks of League of Nations, “Phere are some who solemnly as- wert that the league would not only embroll us In the affairs of Hurope but would force Amertca into future avars.

The two older leagues, Mr. said in outlining the defense after the plaintiffs had rested their case, would attempt to disprove the contention of Pepper the Baltimore club that professional | baseball, as constituted during life-time of the Federal league, was a monopoly within the meaning of the Sherman anti-trust law. The complaint of the Baltimore club, the attorney declared, had nar- rowed down to two charges, first that organized baseball heads, an despe- clally Ban Johnson, president of the American league, had made serious charges against the Federal league, and second, that the heads of organ- ized baseball and three Federal league officials had entered into a conspir- acy to disrupt the Federal league with the result that the Baltimore club, having grounds and players and ready to play ball, found itself with- out anybody to play against and was damaged accordingly.
