The nomination of Judge McGee by
the aggregation at Hermosa last Satur-
day was no surprise to anybody. Levi
McGee has the qualities that make a
successful politician, and he pulled
the strings and laid the wires to get
the nomination and he got it. But he
fell down when it came to the election
four years ago and he is likely to meet
with similar fate this year.

Third Of the Receipts from Pictures.
CARSON, New. March l6.-Dan Stuart
is mp against another snag. The snag
is in the shape of Martin Julian, who
has demanded one-third of the receipts
that may come to Stuart from exhibit
ing the photographs Of the fight. At
ne time of the signing Of the articles
of agreement Julian asked for share
of the money that would accrue from
this, and he was told by Stuart that If
any bids were made for the right to
take pictures Of the fight, Julian would
be given chance to be in on the re-
turns. No bids have been made, how
ever, as Stuart has been intending to
take the photographs with ma
chine which belongs to him for the
most part. Julian said that If his de-
mand was not granted he would refuse
to fight before the camera, although
he was willing to allow FitzsimmOns
to fight for the purse if the camera is
taken from the arena. The pictures
are considered by Stuart his one chance
Of getting back some of the money he
has advanced for the fighters in the
last three years, and he is much wor-
ried over the demand made by Julian.
