“TOO MUCH THORNTON” AND LOCALS
LOSE OPENER OF OKLAHOMA STATE
LEAGUE TO CHICKASHA FIVE-FOUR
The woman police judge at Win-
slow III declares that she will hold
court in the parlor of her home Ev-
ery convenient arrangement between
cases she can take a look at the
cook-boy and the baby — if there ia a
baby

It is reported that Attorney Gen-
eral Daugherty hat informed candi-
dates for the Senate that they need
not comply with Section 8 of the
Federal Corrupt Practices law re-
quiring the filing of satementa with
the secretary of the senate of their
campaign receipts and expenditures
either in the primaries or in the No-
vember elections This recalls the
prediction that after Newberry would
come the deluge
The New York World Dallas News
and Daily Oklahoman will no doubt
be surprised to learn that the Re-
publicans of Oregon have nominated
a Ku Klux Klan candidate for gover-
nor in the recent primaries
Tail-End Rally Near
Beats Visitors
Yesterday
Fifteen base-ball hungry Duncan j
fans saw their entry in the Oklahoma j
State League go down to a glorious
defeat yesterday at the hands of the
Chickasha team in the opening game
of the season and the first game in
which Duncan haa been represented in
a professional league
Somewhat disappointed hut not
"blue" over the defeat the fans this
morning are telling how it all hap-
pened and making some promises that
just as soon aa the team haa played
a few games together they will lead
the percentage column It was a
good game all admit and many of
the Class A teams would be more
popular at home if they would only
play as well
Ewell Tessas First Ball
City Manager John Ewell was on
the mound and tossed the first ball
through Sheriff E H Rhyne was
back of the borne platter with a mat-tress-mit
ready to receive the delivery
but on account of the extreme heat
John’s averdupois and his ability to
“put a little sumpin’ on ’em" the
high sheriff missed the toss a mile
Death of the Ku Klux Klan under
blows delivered by the great newspa-
per triunvirate — World-News-Okla-homan
— has been widely reported
yet five white robed and hooded
Klansmen marched into a leading
church of Elizabeth N J the other
- night and handed the pastor 825 in
a letter explaining that the money
was given in recognition of the
church’s good work for the relief of
the poor

“HARRY” DAUGHERTY
In his di tribution of high appoint-
ments Mr Harding was generous to
friends and neighbors in his own
state but as is usual in such cases
other neighbors failed to wax enthu-
siastically over some of the selec-
tions For example the Ohio State
Journal whose merry gibes at the ex-
pense of the administration have
made it a sort of enfant terrible
among the Republican papers of the
state treats with shocking levity At-
torney General Daugherty’s promise
of a tardy exposure of war-contract
frauds and scandals Involving the
Wilson administration and scoffingly
remarks:
“We will giva $2500 in gold
for every grafting war contrac-
tor put in jail by Harry Daugh-
erty with an extra prize of a
genuine Packard single-six In
every case where said grafting
war contractor so placed in jail
is a Republican"
Possibly the free-spoken State
Journal is the more ready to treat
that distinguished son of Ohio “Har-
ry” Daugherty with such disrepect
because of the recent charge tha
he received $25000 from Charles W
Morse for inducing President Taft to
pardon the “sick” embezzler and free
him from the federal penitentiary at
Atlanta The charge haa been de-
nied but it seems to be amply sup-
ported by letters read in the Sen-
ate said to have been given out by
Morse himself The comment indi-
cates the opinion that $25000 is too
large a sum for legal service without
“influence”
The lack of enthusiasm over ‘he
President's amiable appointment of
Mr Daugherty seems to be pretty
wide-spread in the country as a
whole the attorney general’s pre-
vious record hardly being such as to
commend him for so exalted a posi-
tion The New York World contends that
it is net a compliment to Mr Hard-
ing to fay that he has no cner-i-s
In an article citing the cases of The-
odore Roosevelt Woodrow Wilson and
other presidents the World says
“Nobody can successfully administer
government without creating passion-
ate attachments and arousing equally
passionate resentments Mr Cleve-
Innd wns not alone in being ‘loved
for the enemies he made’ All strong
policical lesJers are thus loved That
is a test that never fails” However
that may be it ia true that the ami-
ab'e dfcnrd-avoiding Mr Harding in-
spires neither enthusiasm among lilt
supporters nor marked dislike of a
personal sort among his opponents

“None of your gaudy colors for
me” said the old girl to the clerk at
the dry goods counter of a local store
the other dayi “All I want is just
plain red and yaller”
NOTICE OF FREE FAIR
MEETING
and it banged into the chicken wire
front of the grandstand and the Umps
yelled “Play Ball”
i The fusor of the Duncan team’s
wonderful “come-back" belongs in no
small degree to the colored section
of the bleachers There the half a
hundred colored fans many of them
who are just ball player enough to
be good enough to play on a league
team themselves were swayed by the
playing of the home team Wher
things went well there was more hil-
arity went up from that section of
the crowd than was ever heard be-
fore And when things looked diik
there was a 'sort of a mournful wail
and plea to “please Mister do some-
thing now" sent out over the field
Blame It Oa Thornton
One Mr Thornton a cast-off from
the Enid team of the Western Asso-
ciation for five innings had the In-
dian sign on the local players A
majority of the locals playing their
first professional game were s ightly
affected with stage frght which pre-
vented them show:n at their best
and again the aforesaid Mr Thorn-
ton was pitching gnu ball hence
the Chickashas got the bulge and held
it thruout the game winning by the
score of 5 to 4
Chickasha got the bulge in the first
inning whrn one run was counted or
a salvo of lucky hits Dugan first
up a right handed batter covnicte
for a fly down the first base foul lir-t
for two bases lie took third oi a
short passed ball and scored whir
Gaines hit into the row of cutc3 in
right field which ordinarily would
have been an easy out the hit going
for two bases Kitterman hit to the
pitcher and Gaines was caught at
third McLain rolled to first and
Mabry fanned
There was nothing doing for either
team until the fifth when the visitors
added two runs on a series of lucky
plays Graham took one in the slats
and took first Thornton hit over sec-
ond and on the play to catch Graham
at third the ball hit the runner and
bounded into the bleachers Graham
scoring and Thornton making third
Dugan hit to left and Thornton d isted
the pan Dugan waa out stealing and
both Gaines and Kitterman fanned
The fourth run was made in tlu
sixth inning McLain started by fan
ning Mabry who seemed to have I

between third and short Fitzgerald
fanned and Liles walke 1 Mabry
scored when Graham hiT'over second
Duncan’s First Hit In 6th
Durcan annexed her first hit ol'
the game in the sixth After Neff had

drive over recond base but the twe
following batters were easy outs
Duncan got her first runs in the
lucky seventh Dixon walked on four
straight balls Hartman hit to first
and Dixon made second Fant hit a
line drive over second and Dixon
scored Fant stole second and took
third when Spear got a Texas leaguer
over first Emir got a safety over
third Fant scoring and Spear taking
third Neff rolled to first and Black
went out third to first Two runs
Locals Rally la Ninth
Both teams scored in the ninth
Gaines started for the vsitors by fan
ning Kitterman hit one a mile high
to right which the fielder mussed up
misjudging the ball He made sec
ond on the play and took third when
the pitcher threw wild to catch him
off bag and scored on a hit to sec-
ond that should have been fielded by
McLain
Duncan came back strong in her
half but lacked one run of tieing the
score Fant walked and stole second
Spear also walked Blair fanned
Neff hit over third base for two bases
Fant and Spear acoring
Wade batting for Black hit a line
drive two feet inaide of third base
which the lucky Mabry stabbed and
John skied to center for the third
out Wade’a hit ordinarily would
have been good for two bases and
would have tied the score but for the
horse shoe carried by Mabry through
the entire game
