BUFFALO, N. Y. May 30-Terry
McGovern and Abe Attel. the clever
California featherweight. who are to
meet tonight before the International
Athletic club at Fort Erie, have COM
pleted their training and appear to be
in splendid condition for the bout.
While McGovern is naturally the IA
vorite there are many who believe
that Attel will be able to make good
showing before the redoubtable
Brooklynite. The bout has aroused
more interest in sporting circles than
any event here since the Erne-Gans
fight and an immense crowd will be
on hand when the gong calls the lit

1.-THE First Offense" and Sentimental
ism.
(Salt Lake TeIegram.)

(Salt Lake Telegram.)
! The Telegram has been asked fire.
quently of late to suppress stories con-
corning criminal escapades of several
young men. When good reasons were
given the requests were granted, but in
two instances firm refusals were the
answers to young men who called in
person to urge that the story of their
wrongdoing be kept out of The TeIe-
gram.
Both of these young men admitted
that the criminal actions in question
were not their first offenses. Each
asked that the story be suppressed for
his mothers sake
How can you have the impudence'
to ask a newspaper to do something for
your mother which you haven't done
yourself?" each son was asked.
Each admitted under fire that he
used his mothers name simple to con-
jure with, not out of love for her or
wish to spare her feelings These two
young men are now enemies of The
Telegram because it exposed their
crookedness.
In another case a young man gave
as his reason for newspaper protection
that "it was his first offense'
When does a criminal career begin?
How many times must man steal be-
fore he becomes criminal? This man
speaks of his first offense'-and he is
not alone in such silly sentfmentalism
AS if it were an accident, because of
which he is entitled to sympathy, not
punishment. He does not claim that it
was done in ignorance that it was
criminal. Only that it was his first
offense." Does he not mean that 1t was
the first one that was found OUT?
Clear thinking would show him that
his first offense" was crime as truly
as his tenth. Clear thinking would
have shown him. if he repented it az
he seems to claim that he did, that he
must bear the penalty, whereof long
distrust is part, till he could live 1t
down." which hiding it can never do.
The much pitied first offense" is the

NEXT STEP NEEDED

Now that the library propositions il
Lewiston are definitely established and
proper receptacle is furnished fol-
keeping of valuable records The Teller
suggests that the time is ripe for the
formation of a Lewiston historical So
ciety.
1t is now forty years since Lewiston
was first settled and the prominent
events of this nearly half a century
are not yet amatter of permanent rec
ord, but exist chiefly in the recollec-
lions of the pioneers of the early sixties
who are going fast under the burden
of advancing years and we are losing
valuable data every year with hardly
hope for recovering it again.
Not only is it true that information
OF historical value, unwritten facts,
are getting away from us but it is fur
Their true that much printed matter in
the way of early legal records, news
paper files and clippings, and letters
are being lost for want of proper ap-
probation of their value and care in
their preservation.
1t is not unlikely that in every house
hold of an early Lewiston pioneer there |
is one or more of these documents of |
priceless value to those who care to |
preserve an authentic account of the |
first half century of Lewiston history,
and a society formed for the purpose
or collecting and preserving this data
would be able to make a splendid col
nation for future generations.

STATE PRESS OPINIONS


From the Northern Idaho News:
1t might be well for the democrats
who are putting up such a howl over
the "suddenness" of Roosevelt IS rec
ognizing Panama to delve into history
little bit. They might find that Pres
ident Polk rushed the country into a
war with Mexico and that the dlIatory
man was President Buchanan, whose
dilatory acts allowed the south to get
the guns and ammunition which en-
abled it to continued a controversy
which ran the country with blood for
four long and weary years. Whose ex-
ample is best to follow, Polk of wfrom
the democrats are proud, or Buchanan
of whom they are ashamed.

Secret of Hanna's Political Success
(Collier's Weekly)


! If Uncle Mark Hanna owes his fac
| ulty of winning election to any one
trait, it is to the candid way he has OF
putting confidence in others No
body knows better how to get repor-
torial favor. At the outset of his tour
of Ohio during the late election he
called the newspaper men on his pri-
vate car around him.
Now, boys" he said. well be to-
gether for several weeks, and while
we are on board We'll be just like one
big family. You are my guests, and
you will be treated as though the car
was my house. will have many
things to say that are not intended for
print. We will form many plans that
we do not wish made public I don't
intend to chase you out on to the plat
form, and l will not whisper You'll
hear every word and you will know
as we'll as do what is not intended for
publication"
And some of the things said on the
car would stir politics from coast to
coast is printed, but they will remain
secrets.
In few words at meeting in a
small town in the interior of the state,
his answer to a question was one that
was a key to his whole character.
isn't it true that you got jobs for
fifteen of the men who voted for you
for SENATOR" a man in the audience
asked.
That's a lie" was Hanna's answer
There were more than fifteen, for I
never go back on my friends"
