Boston National League Club team is
not worrying over the threat of Arthur
Irwin of The Altoona team to take the
junior "Cy,' Young next season. The
personal contract that Young signed
with Frank V. Dunn last summer was
on the strength of Mr.. Dunn's option on
the Boston club. When Mr.. Young
signed with the Boston Nationals, over
year ago. there was an option clause
in his contract which gives the Boston
club first claim to his services, Mr..
Dunn's contract being incidental and
effective only if the old Boston club re-
tires from business. Arthur TWINS at
tempt to secure some of the Boston
players has turned out a big failure and
he will probably run up against a Sc
we're frost when he tries to land the old
Concord pitcher. who is not likely to
join the outlaws and thereby be placed
under the ban of the national agree
ment clubs.

A Commune alton.

Editor Kennebec Journal:
After reading the various statements
concerning the PantZ-COte bout l feel
1t my duty as a disinterested witness
TO give my version of the affair.
Pantz was fouIed beyond a question
OF a doubt. / personally saw sufficient
evidence to warrant this statement. AS
10 Mr. McCarthy's decision the only
mode OF contention that l can see is
that he did not say in terms loud
enough for all to hear: "PantZ winS!"
As to McCarthys saying "Pantz says
he is fOuled," as asserted by the asso-
citation, there is a question. The writer
was In q position to hear what was
said. The first and exact words were
after the referee passed an eXamina-
ton: Mr.. Cote has fouled PantZ." The
first cry Of foul came from the au-
dience. And ii the Augusta Athletic
Association had upheld the decision of
the referee there would have been no
trouble but instead the management
Of the club were influenced by the gal
lery rooters who were not i'm a position
to see if "A foul had been delivered or
not.
Now, for a few deductions. 1t looks
very much like rank favoritiSm on the
part Of the management Of this con-
test. If not why did they not sustain
the referee? If they had done that on
the night of the oath inst. and cleared
the hall all would have been well. The
average fair-minded man would have
been satisfied.
Second, II the referee has got to pick
the winner to please a certain part OF
the association they ought TO tell hin
In advance who their Idol is so he car
get next
Third. these bouts are always left
with the referee. How often have we
heard the announcer Of these contests
tell the spectators that no outside In
reference will be tolerated with the
decisions as given by referee.
Fourth. it would have been better for
the club. even If 4 question of a doubt
arose as to the probability Of 4 foul
to have given the referee the benefit of
It. and later on IL they had found any
thing that would have justified them in
thinking the referee had been fixed
why gently cut him out from acting in
future contests.
Fifth. what has been a source of sur
prise to the writer all along is the fact
that the management of the club was
and Is lOath to believe that Il foul had
been committed on Pantz If the al
legged foul had been committed by
Pantz ] hardly think this contention
would have occurred.
sixth. what right had the club to vote
"No contest" after the decision has
been given and the contestants paid
even to the referee? Wouldn't 1t give
the impression that someone didn't
wish To lose ANYTHING on this contest
l Will leave II tn any fair-minded,
unbiased man who has frequented any
OF the contests where Pantz has par
ticipated II he has ever seen anything
wrong i'm his mode of boxing since COM
ing to Augusta.
Yours for "a fair deal.

William Randolph Hearst, the es--
poused idol politically of some OF
the local Democratic sages, has vir-
tually repudiated the Democratic
party in favor of the Independence
League. 1t now remains to be. seen
how sincere was the devotion of the
local sages to the idol. OF course,
they will have to repudiate the party
too. Or we're they really Joined to
their idol? We shall see what we
shall see.

GREAT RAILWAY DISPLAY.

One of the most magnificent dis
plays ever made by railroad at an
exposition will be made by the
Southern Railway at the jamestown
Exposition. 1t will occupy 1000
square feet of space and will be the
most comprehensive as well as the
most beautiful exhibit that as pros
sale thing as a railroad could get
up. The most attractive feature OF
the exhibit will be the display of
the products of the country along
the line of the road. The Southern
Railway runs through the mountain,
hills and valleys of the Sunny South
portion of the country that is
beautiful and picturesque as well as
productive. The products of the
country traversed by this road in
clude much that is interesting, and
the Southern Railways display at
the jamestown Exposition will
doubtless excite the admiration OF
millions of visitors.
