insisted on exquisite canoes as deeora-

gems attached to their shoes. High

BATTLING NELSON
THE FAV0R|TE
FRISCO SPORTS BACK HIM TO Win
FROM BRITT TOMORROW
NIGHT.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 30.-Unless
all signs fail, Battling Nelson will be
a top heavy favori;e over Jimmie
Britt when they face each other fey,
the third time tomorrow night From
ten to nine the odds have gone to ten
to six. Wise betters say they expect
20 see the price ten to one.
Quite lot of money has been placed
at ten to eight. Britt admirers are
taking all the money at that price in
sight, but despite their eagerness to
wager. the odds become longer. This
condition is primarily due 20 one de-
cisive victory Nelson scored over Britt
but Nelson sentiment is given great
strength by the dissipating of reports
that he has not only gone back as a
result of the beating Cans gave MIN,
but that he is suffering from a bad
ailment that would never again permit
him to get into condition.
The Dane is in splendid shape and
looks as tough as piece of whale
bone. Britt is also in grand form for
a gruelling mill. Both men laid off
today contenting themselves with a
little road work. The indications are
for big house.

TAFT FOR
PRESIDENT
Ohio Republicans EndorseHis
Candidacy Today

COLUMBUS, O., July 30.-A reso-
tuition endorsing William Taft for the
presidency was adopted this afternoon
by a vote of Is to by the repub blican
state central committee. The Fora
ker and Dick combine was completely
routed, the Taft sentiment being so
strong before the committee met that
Foraker practically gave up.
The vote against the Taft endorse
ment stood as follows: Andrew j..
Hess, George G. King, O. B. Gould,
Penitentiary Warden John J. Adams,
C B. Mccoy JOIN S. NcNutt. Th,
resolution adopted is as ;olloWs: We
believe the great majority of the peo-
pie of Ohio, convinced of the high
character, great ability and dis
tinguished services Of William Taft,
indorse his candidacy for the presi-
dency, and We further believe repub-
licans of Ohio desire the name of Taft
to be presented to the national con
veLtion as the Ohio candidate and
that the republicans of other states be
invited to cooperate with the republi-
cans of Ohio to secure his nomination.
We emphatically declare the repubh-
cans of Ohio are opposed to the elm
ination from public life of Foraker
and Dick whose services to the party
and the United States have been dis
tinguished by ability, wisdom and
patriotism.

GEN. BELL FAvORS CANTEEN
Believes it Would Solve Drink
Problem in Army

In an interview yesterday, General
Bell chief of staff of the United States
army, who is inspecting Fort Walla
Walla, made some interesting state
ments Among other things he said:
THE santeen, under proper restric-
ton, would be a good thing. Allowed
to drink light beer, the soldiers would
not have so great an appetite for
other and heavier drinks. The drunk
eness of the common soldiers of the
army could be solved in this way to
a great extent A canteen at every
post, under government supervision
would be The best and easiest solu.-
tior. of the drink problem"
Referring to the pay of the soldier
the general said:
The pay is too small. officers as
we'll as men are underpaid. A man
who is able to earn SO per day is not
attracted by s13 per month. When
the pay was determined 40 years ago
conditions We're entirely different
han they are now and living was
much cheaper.
We heed more officers in the army,
100. Many are detached at all times
for special duty and many more are
always on leave of absence. This
leaves US with a shortage of officers.
If we had more they could be used In
the place of the officers who are away
on various duties and pleasures. In
time of war we could utilize them for
volunteers and not have to trust 10
volun- eer officers.
Regarding any changes at the fort
the general says he was in TO position
TO make any statement Concerning
the probability of a war with Japan
the military commander was equally
uncommunica-ive.
