POTTS DREW IN
ST. LOUIS FIGHT
Crowd Thought Minneapolis Man
Was Entitled to Decision
Over Thompson.

New York Sun Special Service.
st. Louis, No., Feb. 18.-With the Inaugural
ton of Governor Folk and consequent closing
of the winerooms. st. Louis sports have been
compelled to work of their surplus energy in
other directions, and hence the Sunday prize
fight has become feature Of the worlds fair
city. -. '=s
Last night the Columbian and tho South Broad
way Athletic clubs pulled of bouts which drew
good sized crowds, notwithstanding the fact that
zero weather prevailed. However, the bouts
were hot enough to satisfy every admirer Of
dstiana. ..
In the nrst-named club Maur,ce Thompson Of
Butte, Mont, and Jimmy Potts of Minneapolis
were the feature in ten-round bout. Potts
outclassed the man from Butte, but the referee
decided to the bout to be draw. The decision
was greeted with Kisses lond and strong.
At the South Broadway club Jules Klein Of
st. Louis quickly disposed Of Ed Van Leunen
of San Francisco The men were scheduled for
twelve rounds, but 1t took only three, Van
Leunen being knocked out by right punch
which landed on his solar plexus.
The indications are that no more bouts win be
held in DUBUQUE Iowa, until the forepart Of
Anr1l as the promoters Of the Athletic associa-
tion do not feel warranted in arranging a card
until the followers of the game signify their
willingness to give financial support. No boxing
show has been held since the Kenny -Mulholland
fight was decided and it is claimed that the I'M
satisfactory ending of that bout put damper on
the sport.

mission, when we will be progressive
enough In Iowa to have IL county SUI
perintendent of roads, just us we now
have a county superintendent of
schools. And the business OF keeping
up the roads will then be put on a
business basis like the keeping up Of
the schools now is, or is meant to be.
or course. nothing can guard against
the incompetence of some OF the Off
GERS selected for public duties: but the
establishment Of the office of county
superintendent of roads would result.
In my judgment, in the making of good
roads everywhere in Iowa for the taxes
raised would then be expended with
and with some hope Of re :
suits whereas now most of the taxes
are wasted.
II would have the county superinten-
dent of roads contract for the main
tenance of roads with persons compe-
tent to do the work. who could give
band that the work would be done, and
whose pay would depend on whether
system of the state results in giving
the counties pretty good bridges. as
rule and if the work of keeping UP the
roads were let to contract the same
way, tell you we would have good
roads in fact in THIS state.
"rhe King road drag is doing the
business in Iowa. All 1t needs Is oper-
alton. AS Joe Trigg says. water Is the
most accommodating stuff In nature;
1t will always run away II you will
let 1t. All we need to do Is to have
a ditch along the side of the road. and
just grade the road up toward the
middle and let 1t get hard. but this
takes work after every rain and II In
the charge of a good and competent
superintendent who would spend his
time inspecting those sections of the
road which were under contract. they
could be kept up. 1t Is easy to de-
termine just how many roads IN the
county there are. how many miles need
working. and tha average number of
rains per year 1t would not be at all
difficult to have them all systematic
ally and thoroughly worked all of the
time"

GROSS L1REL ON cuMM1Ns.

u
For gross Misrepresentation, utterly
inexcusable. two-column article In
the Chicago Tribune regarding
the Shaw -Cummins feud surpasses be-
lief
Though the paper for which Ray
mond' writes is In sympathy with the
Iowa governor in his reciprocity cam
paign and opposed to the ideas of Shaw,
Raymond" places it in an attitude OF
belittling Cummins to the glorifcaton
of Shaw His error Is therefore doubt
less due to ignorance. rather than TO
malice. He has fallen victim to the in
genuity of the willy Shaw, who has in
person or thru some subtle agency sue
ceeded In filing the Chicago Tribune's
correspondent with false history OF
Iowa politics.
RAYMOND" sagely remarks that the
republican party in Iowa is in a bad
way" and that ut is a well understood
thing that If Secretary shaw becomes
an omen candidate for the presidency,
Governor Cummins will also be cam
didate and the result will be a divided
delegation, with neither standing a
ghost of O show.

Trims an iota OF truth, The republican
party is not In bad way In Iowa 1t
has an Overwhelming majority and
probably stands In less danger OF over
throw In Iowa than in any other state
in the union. AS for the statement that
Cummins will become candidate Tor
president as soon as Shaw openly an
nounces his candidacy, it is preposter-
Gus Cummins has never indicated by
word or deed, thru friend or foe,
that he contemplated such a thing. He
makes no secret Of the fact that ne

raymond" then purports to go back
to the origin of the Shaw -Cummins con-
troyersy and says it developed when
Shaw, as governor, refused to appoint
Cummins senator to succeed Gear, and,
instead, appointed Dolliver. He then
attempts little detail by way of local
coloring to the effect that Cummlns at
tempted to betray Funk, when the lat
ter was a candidate for governor
against Shaw, and offered to turn over
forty delegates to Shaw, but was SUD-
iected to the humiliation or ShaWs re-
fusal; also that this was urged In CUM
MINIS behalf as a reason why Curmmins
was entitled to appointment as senator
instead Of Dolliver.
Cummins never betrayed Funk nor
any other man and, least of all, would
he do this in deal with Shaw. he
never asked the appointment at shaws
hands and never permitted any OF MS
friends to make any representations re-
garding it other than that IN view OF
the fact that he had come within one
vote Of being chosen senator over scar

The simple truth is that the feud be-

personality. Cummins is for tarlfr re-
