THE SORRY WHITE MAN.

One broad IN inded and determined citizen is
worth thousand times more to a town than a car
load of the sort whose time is spent principally in
wearing out the seats of their pants and making
light of every new movement. The man who does
nothing for his community further than to pay his
taxes may be entitled to police protection, but he
is certainly not entitled to any of the benefits of
increased commerce, and if his property increases
in value because of the efforts of his neighbOrs he
gets that much which is not rightfully his OWL
Calhoun County Courier.
But the real sorry white man, the thing i'll
human form that ofends the olfactores of the
business community he imposes himself on is the
man who pays no taxes nor has any property to
increase in value nor indeed character to defend
but sticks his nose into all these matters to the dis
gllst of better men.

OHIO'S 2 CENT FARE.

While we GeOrgans are making great row
over reduced passenger rates, other states are
gathering practical statistics as to what the re-
duced rates mean and what they are doing i'll
actual results.
In this conectiOn the report OF the railroad
commission of Ohio, covering all it's work to
November, 1, 1907, is chiefly interesting be-
cause it presents the workings of the two cent
fare law. The report shows that 3,666,2O6,
more passengers were carried in the year end
ing Nov. 1, 1907, than were carried in the
previous year. OF the 5 operating roads
whose earnings were tabulated by the railroad
commission 30 of them show increased earn
ings per passenger train mile in 1907 over
1906 Four roads show no change, leaving IA
that show less earnings per passenger train
mile. The average passenger earning per
train mile in 1907 was 81 ,05, as against $1O2
in 1906
The earnings per train mile are considered
by the Ohio railroad commissioners; the true
test will no doubt soon be heard from in
other states The proof of the pudding is in
the eating, and rate law should be con
demned before it has been tested. Academic
denunciations of practical measures are value

The Enterprise has contended all along that
the &c rate will within short time prove the best
thing for the railroad. There are instances where
the population of the country through which the
road operates will not warrant reduction, indeed
at &c per mile it may prove Improbable to operate
double daily schedules. But most Georgia roads
will do better at the reduced rate.
At least the experiment is worth trying.

II saw six innings of a recent New
York Chicago National league contest
at the New York polo grounds, but
had to leave when the crowd began to
clamor, and can't say If want to see
any more of the professional game as
it is played today. like to watch col

watch such a contest.

he says 'basebalPs main object is to
please the public he is mistaken. That
is the professional idea. 1t cannot be
the main object from the fact that the
public, as a rule, does not understand
the real beauties of the game as ex-
hibited in scientific pitching. To this
add fine support In the field against
such skillful work at the bat as one
sees when such masters as Willie Kee-
Ter, who excels all batsmen In the art
Of driving a runner around, faces the
pitcher. There you have the ideal
game. That's what we expect.
Don't try to abolish the spit ball or
any kind of curve ball. They are beau
ties of the game. Cut out the kicking
and limit the foul strike rule. Base
ball today Is not perfect. 1t is not the
enjoyable game it was one time de-
spite the fact that we frequently made
as many as 200 runs when the game
was young. It's farce and an injus-

Limit the foul strike to balls hit

will be the most perfect pastime In the

BURNS WILL

LOS ANGELES, July 26.-Tommy

karat Kohinoor in his scarf to the

IN the latter connection, Burns
brushed aside all talk of the color line
by the following statement:
You show me the money, and Ill
fight Johnson in a second. Just let me
see that it is to be a paying propo-
sition, and Johnson can have my game
any minute of the day."
Burns expects to stay in Los Angeles
only week. He is to leave San Fran

vile show. They are booked to open

Besides the moving pictures of the
short Burns Squires fight, the show
will carry seven vaudeville acts, in
GLIDING boxing turn between Tommy
and HIS protege, Jimmy Burns.
Burns turned his attention to Mike
Schreck.
There's fellow that's doing a lot
of fourflushing, and sooner or later l
will have to take his measure. If
ever do match up with him, you can
bet that he will have to come through
with big side bet, $4,000 to say the
least and when 1 get through with him
he will have to settle down and be
good"
Then Tommy's conversation turned
to his protege, Jimmie Burns. Able
Attell has been writing for a match
with Joe Cans at 1873 pounds, and
Tommy thought Jimmie and Able
ought to make a good match, and in
tmated that he would put UP a good
side bet that Jimmie would whip the
champion.
Tommy believes that Jimmie can
easily beat either Nelson or Britt, and
stated that if the two latter continued
to ignore his man, he would have Jim
mie, together with 10000 in real mon
ey, at the ringside to challenge the
winner of the Britt Nelson fight if ttG
latter ever comes off.

FITz LOSES
EASY MONEY

PHILADELPHIA, July 26.-Not only
Is Bob FftHsimmnus former fighting
champion of the world, fiat broke, but
there is slim chance of his getting
immediate action from the Washington
Sporting club for his portion of the
gate receipts of the Johnson Fitzsim-
mons fasco Of Wednesday night
About $3.50 is due each of the fight
ers for their two round display. The
club says it will not settle. 1t Will
fight the matter in the courts first
Leaders Of the club say the money
would better be returned to coupon
holders who helped to make up the
gate receipts of something like $4,000.
Johnson and Fitz were to have receiv-
ed 30 per cent each for showing.
1t is known that this $4,000 which
IS due F'itzsimmons, if the club keeps
its contract is every penny the old
fellow has in the world.
And even this was attached before
the fight.
But the attachment that was pas-
tered onto the coin is said to be a
friendly one, engineered by George
Considine of New York and arranged
for by telegraph in order to protect
the former champion from annoyance
by other creditors who were after the
money.
This, then, is the end of one worlds
champions fortunes. Once regarded
as an exceptionally careful man and
possessed of a sum regarded as high
enough to remove the freckled one
from all possibility of want, Bob is
said to have shot away everything he
ever had in trying to steer frosty the
atrical ventures clear of the rocks and
in helping out promoters with every
variety of questionable schemes for
getting the coin and getting it quick
for themselves
1t is said even that at one time Fitz
had $250,OO0, although this is doubted
1t is known, though, that shortly after
he fought Jeffries the first time he
was possessed of a comfortable for
tune and was making money rapidly,
both in the ring and on the stage.
