The Olympic club of New Orleans
seems doomed to disappointment after
having offered small fortunes to Slavin,
Mitchell, Corbett, Maher, Hall, FItzsim-
mons and McAulIffe. They had a match
virtually arranged between Maher and
Choyinski by permission of the sage of
Dublin when he suddenly changed his
mind and instructed Madden to put
Msher against no one but champions.
Madden's shrew coaching is plainly dis
cernable in the breaking off of
all negotiations for meeting
with Choyinski. Makers pretentions
not to meet a beaten man is rather laugh
able and characteristic of the manage.

by Jackson in a round and a half and by
an amateur in Ireland he declines meet

aware Makers chances of winning are
not as good as ] to 2 against this same

forcing prospective investors or Danufac-
turers to make a house-to house canvass.
Part OF Its self imposed duty consists in
advertising the advantages of the commu-
nifty through such mediums and In such
manner as it deems most effective. The
cost of such advertising also comes not
out of the pockets of the community but
out of the pockets of the members of the
board of trade.
These facts do not seem to be generally
understood and We have heard fippant
criticism of the Board of Trade from men
who had been benefited by its exertions
yet never contributed a dollar to its sup
port. The Cheyenne Board of Trade has
done some direct good and a very great
deal OF indirect good. 1t is now doing
all that it possibly can. IL has saved the
community money through its investiga-
tions of the many schemes proposed to 1t
and its exposure of those not entitled to
public confidence.
The necessity of such an organization
is now more than ever apparent. This
year great things may and should be &C.
complished. 1t is no more than simple
Justice, considering all the circumstances,
that all the people Of Cheyenne should at
least give the Board OF Trade their
moral support even if they are not dis
posed to 90 further and contribute their

April 90, 1890. Previous to his de-
parture TOR England, it will be remem
bered, Joe McAulife was advertised by
challenge to fight Sullivan. backed by
$500 deposited by Madden with a big
safety" chain on it in the way Of condl-
tons upon which this challenger of Sulli
van would fight the man he had chsl-
lenged. Madden's latest bluff is a SIS, 900
deposit and a challenge to Sullivan in
behalf of Maher, whom he knows Sullivan
would not meet, unless it might be for a
large money inducemcnt alone. Very
little honor will attach to the beating of
Maher. Makers latest addition to his
cheap record is the doing" Of Joe God
frey at PHILADELPHIA the other night.
IRISH CHAMPIONS.
Comparing Maher, in 1892, as cham
pion of Ireland, with the following IRISH
champions should make all lrishmen
blush that the old emerald isle is repre-
sented by such a fighter for Its champion.
In March, 1888. in Townsend street, old
Dublin, was born Dan Dom ely, Ireland's
greatest prize ring hero. He became the
recognized champion by defeating Tom
Hall in fifteen rounds. Dec. 10, 1915,
on the Curragh of Kildare. he met and
whipped England's champion, the re
nowned Geo. Cooper, in eleven rounds,
becoming thereby champion of Ireland
aud England. Four years later Tom
Oliver tackled Dan for the title and wa'
laid u July 81, 1919, in thirty foul
rounds.

THE SIGNIFICANCE OF 1T.

The Rock Springs Independent, which
is slightly tinGed with mugwumpery be-
tween elections and quite rankly Rerub-
lIcan at other times, does not agree with
the statement that the result of the recent
Cheyenne election is any indication what
ever Of Democratic success next fall. This
Is enough to show that the Independent
failed to see the matter in its true per-
spective. The recent municipal election
in Cheyenne involved a clearly defined
principle and its result was an unmistaka-
BILE protest against the continuance of
machine rule in Republican politics.
Even the presence and personal exertions
of Senator Warren could not save the
day for the machine element Of his party.
There are many silent but potent fac
tors now at work 10 bring about a radical
transformation in the politics of this
state. In the first place there are a great
many independent Republicans who can
no be forced to wear the collar. They
have concluded, as one OF them stated a
few days ago 10 THE LEADER, that it is
impossible to effect a reformation within
the Republican party of the state aud
have therefore determined to effect it BY
operating from outside the party. There
ase besides these a large number of the
OUNCE element which has given to the
uarty most of its enthusiasm and much
of its hardest work. They realize that
there is no hope for them within the Re
publican ranks unless they crook the
pregnant hinges Of the knee" toIthe ma
chine. They have observed that
party preference very seldom extends
beyond a very narrow circle. They
have seen within the past year one
man hol1ing two elective and one ap-
p]ointive Office at the same time, and they
have seen several holding two distinct of
fees. They notice that these few men
are always pampered and petted and rea-
son that they must be useful to somebody.
1t is little trouble to them to figure out
that this some one is Senator Warren,
whom they must obey to hold their Jobs.
" Z NhNf NVuoidti ~ lulNuNl lucy us
cover enthusiastic workers in their own
party who have been sacrificed even for
such a small matter as declining to pledge
themselves to vote for Warren for Sena-
tor-this, too, at a time when the Re.
publican press was getting black 10 the
face denying that Warren had anything
in view but the gubernatorial chair.
they have reached this
point they begin to copsider OF
what advantage it is to them one way or
the other. IN what way are they ahead
if Warren is elected senator and iu what
way behind il he is deieated2 At every
turn in the road they see the familiar faces
of old time and persistent oficeholders.
They get disguised with the whole
machine and enter their protest BY voting
against il.
The municipal election lu Cheyenne
was a Democratic victory, but the rnde.
pendent Republicans had a coutributory
share in it. Its significance Is therefore
apparent aud the victory, in a great
degree. of state importance.

WARREN's new bill to Increase the
salary of land office registers and receivers
from $500 to 81, 200 looks like an effort
to conciliate those officials whose posi-,
tions were rendered valueless by the land
bill passed last year through the exer
tions of " arren and Carey. A dispatch
from Colorado says there is not now a
land Office in that state which pays the
maximum allowed by law. When this
was predicted by THE LEADER a year
& every Republican paper in the state,
with the single exception of the Evanston
Ne,cs, set up a terrific %commotion. Those
apers which are forced to jump when
somebody pulls the string, are not very
reliable public teachers-as this instance
very clearly indicates.

THE BOARD OE TRADE.

The Board of Trade is presumed to
represent the ability and energy of the city
aud is naturally looked to as a leader in
public enterprise. There are many things
which could proftably claim Its attention
at the present time and it is much to be
regretted that the press has so little to
chronicle OF the doings OF CheYenne's lead
ing commercial organization. -EUennD
Tribune.
The Board OF Trade is only in a certain
sense a public organization. 1t is formed
of various citizens of the community and
supported exclusively BY the contribu-
lions of its members. Such work as i.
performs is for the general good. The
ASSOCIATION draws not q penny from any
source outside OF its own organization
The situation therefore is that the mem
bers OF the Board of Trade. and they
alone, furnish the funds 10 keep it run
ming, they devote their time to questions
concerning the public good and whatever
benefit may result FROM these exertions is
shared by every citizen ofthe town equally
with them and to exactly the same degree.
A board of trade properly constituted
aud properly backed fills a place in a com.
munity peculiar to itself. 1t is a compact
s~emi-pubiic organization by which is con-
sidered every proposition concerning the
extension or improvement of the business
interests of the community. 1t is a sort
Of ways and means committee for the
business community, to a certain extent
self constituted, aud forms a medium
through which the business interests Of
the community may be reached without

What a similarity this fight would have

miniature jackson. His style of fighting
in a measure resembles Jackson's also.
Murphy like Slavin depends for execution
almost entirely upon the crashing hits he

it. If Murphy is able to fight strong at

The Cheyenne Election and warren


The result of the Cheyenne municipal
election last week was a 8 to | victory for
the Democrats. 1t is especially gratifying
to the Democrats of the state at large that
this result was reached, Notwithstanding
Senator Warren's active participation IN
the campaign. We believe that normally

tain element of Laramie county Demo.
Gratis have been possessed Of the super
stition that Warren was about the biggest
man on earth and his political promotion
meant a marvel OF prosperity aud i'm
provement for Cheyenne. They are rap

The Keough-S Smith fight Jan. %
should be a corker. Keough has fought
many battles under the aliases OF Farrell,
Darrell, Carter, etc, and will, Judging by
his tactics in previous fights, give Smith
his own kind of fight. viz: Slug from
the start. Keough heretofore has not
met a man who will SO thoroughly prove
his liking for the gaff as Smith will.
Beating Smith will be by far the most
creditable notch In his stick OF victories.
Jack McAuliffe signed articles to fight

$4,000, but as so often before he shows
