OSHKOSH WANTS FIGHT.
Sports Inclined to Misinterpret Gov.

Gov. La Toilette said last night that
the district attorney and sheriff at
Oshkosh had full and explicit direc,
tons to permit no violation of the law
relating to prize-fighting, and that he
depended upon them to see that the
statute was enforced. If they were
neglilent of their duty he would hold
them accountable.
The Oshkosh sports on former oc-
casion regarded such a warming from
the governor as giving them license
TO go along some. But the executive
is not disposed to wink at any techn;.

from an Oshkosh correspondent to a

people look on the matter:
Just before the first one was given
the governor wired the sheriff and the
dltrict attorney that he would hold
those officials responsible to the ex-
tent that no law should be violated
he made no suggestions that they
should attempt to stop the contests.

would be responsible for any VIOLA

What is Success

Is it to worship earthly erouo,,.
Gold, eo'eiins
And dollar-blinded, to look only
down,
40 rake the muck-heap and forget
the crown,
Until Youths bounding blood creans
strangely cold;
To dwell with Envy, Arrogance and
dread,
To barter all Benovelence for dross
To lose Companionship-n feel its
loss,
Because the flower of Sympathy Is
dead
Is that Success?
To labor for the rainbow bubble
Afioat so early in the morning air
A perfect jewel for a prince to
wear
is IL a recompense for all it's claim?
Thro careful night, and crowded
strenuous day,
Thro' iron rebuff, or flattery-like
snow
That leaves one thirsty-it is grasped,
and 10!
1t vanishes in nothingness away
Is that Success?
With comrade Duty, in the dark or
day,
To follow Truth-whereve it may
lead;
To hate all meanness, cowardice or
greed,
To look for Beauty under common
clay;
Dur brothers burden sharing, when
they weep,
But, If we fall, to bear defeat alone;
To live in hearts that loved you
when we're gone
Beyond the twilight (till the morning
breakN to sleep
That is SUGGEST
