THREE FAST BOUTS
Eagles Boxing Show Brings Out
the Best Card of Boxers in
Many a day in Kenosha
RYAN BESTS TURNER IN SIXTH

About the hossiest exhibition of the
boxing game seen in Kenosha in many
a year was the show given on We'd
90 nesday night by the members of the
~ Kenosha Aerie of Eagles at their hall
on Main street. The show was strictly
private, open only to the members Of
the order, but the men who had the
W mystic word certainly we're repaid for
going down town.
Two knockouts and a red hot draw
made up the program for the evening.
w The windup was between such distin-
guished ring men as Jack Turner and
Jack Ryan of Chicago, and Ryan
knocked out his opponent after six
grounds Of as hard fighting as has been
seen in Kenosha.
George Finney, one of the members
w of the order, acted as the matchmaker
and master of ceremonies and George
kept up his reputation for putting on
a good show. The mat was spread in
the middle of the big hall and there
90 were fully $50 men gathered about the
side of the ring.
The first bout was between Jack
Ward and Young Irish of Mi1wau-
90 kee, and after six rounds of hard
lighting the go was declared a draw.
The second bout brought out the only
local talent seen at the show. It was
90 Wilson against Lowell. Both men are
well known in local fighting circles
and Lowell had the better of the ar
guneDt from the first. In the fourth
round Wilson went down and out.
0Ol The last go was the offering of
Howard Carr, the matchmaker for the
Illinois Athletic club of Chicago. He
brought Jack Turner and Jack Ryan,
M old time opponents, and the boys GER
tainly put up great battle. From
the first round Ryan was on the de-
fensive. Turner was in great shap
- and to the men about the ring it
- looked as if he would be an easy win
ner. Ryan, however, had not forgot
ten the game and he kept going for
the full six rounds.
W At the end Of the sixth Ryan came
at Turner with whirlwind rally and
landed fair and square on the point of
the jaw sending Turner down and out.
Turner came too before the gong
lsounded for the end Of the round but
w the referee had already awarded the
decision to Ryan.
The show was such great success
that it is probable that other shows
w will be arranged later.

DESTROY FOUL WEEDS
Now is the Time to Destroy all Obnoxious
And Foul Weeds.

H. D. Cornwall who lives on the old
Burk property at the foot of the grade
leading to the 1. O. O. F. cemetery, in.
forms US that he has destroyed many
thousand cocklebur plants around his
place and along the public thoroug h.
fare as well as along the canal, which
runs near By.
Why cannot every one take little
time off and destroy all such weeds
wherever found.
Down near the n. p stock yards can
be found two or three big thrifty stalks
OF burdock and cockleburs, and then on
down the road toward the brewery can
be found several more Of these obnox-
ious plants.
1t will be a sorry day fer Kittitas
valley should those two weeds get a
good hold in our fertile soil, and
there is only one way to prevent
them now from 50 doing and that is for
each one to firmly resolve to never get
in too big hurry when on the road to
stop and destroy such weeds, regard
less of where they may be found.
Then too, every farmer should watch
his ranch very closely and make des-
perate effort to never allow single
seed to mature. Indeed every man,
woman and CHILD in the valley should
make such war Of determination on
those two kinds of plants that it will
be impossible for them to ever produce
another crop of seed in our ualley.
Will we do this, or will we do as we
have been doing the past two or three
years, wait for some one else to destroy
the weeds?
Mr.. Cornwall has set the example,
let's all fall in line today.

TAKE A STAND IN THE MATTER.

IT is up to the people Of Ellensburg
to say whether or not they want the
Sunday closing and the gambling law
enforced.
If you want it enforced, go to the
officers of tho law and demand, then
back them in the discharge of their
duty to the letter.
If you are satisfied to let the law be
broken day in and day out as yon have
been doing for the past four years,
we'll and good.
We nave done our duty in this mat
ter as it is the province and duty OF
every newspaper to debut we cannot
do it ALL there is a work for you to do
If you mean to have them enfored, and
it should be enforced or repealed as
soon as possible.
The trouble with most people in this
city is that they fear to express an
opinion or take stand for justice, the
right and the law, for foar that it will
cost them few dollars in the way of
trade or patronage, in other words,
we have too little back bone and too
much "rubberneck.

EDITORIAL NOTES.
GAMBLING REOPENED.

II is current talk and very generally
understood that gambling was again
resumed in one or more saloons Satur-
day night, in direct violation Of law.
If one is to Judge of the action OF
tlose in authority, it would seem as
though they do not care to enforce the
law, a thing that each have sworn to
do.
Gan it be lack OF courage, or is it a
fear Of nonsupport on the part OF our
citizens? We behave it is the latter.
1t looks pretty bad when when any
body Of men, we care not who they may
be, assume to be bigger than the law
and put on such a bold front about
1t, that the officers Of the law seem to
take it by common consent that the
gambling houses are 1t liberty to do as
they choose.
Then too, such houses certainly show
very little regard for the orders and
mandates Of the mayor, to say nothing
Of the laws Of the state.
Ard then, the mayor must certainly
feel that such houses are playing with
bis orders, and in totally disregarding
them, they do not show that respect for
the office that common courtesy de.
mands, besides making it appear that
his subordinates are entitled to no con-
sideration. All Of which is wrong.
The law is plain in regard to gamb-
ling and does not admit Of two inter-
pretations Read it:
