WHAT FISHERMEN SAY.
Association Organized for Protection
Hold Different View.

The condition Of bass flashing in Utah
lake has been one that has been dis
cusSed for the past summer at nearly ev-
cry meeting OF the Fish and Game Pro-
teciiNe association. and this association
deplored the fact that the bass had been
practically eNterminated i'm that body OF
water. The members Of this associa-
ton. however. disagree with Mr. Niadsen
on some of his points IL is conceded
that bass eggs will not hatch i'm muddy
waters. and IT is believed that spawning
grounds should be established near the
lake where the bass could be raised until
they reach AN age where they can take
care of themselves I'm Utah lake II is
also agreed by all the fishermen who
have made this matter study that il is
the carp which has destroyed the VeCeta-
Die life around the shores OF the lake
which has in turn killed the bass spawn
ing grounds and killed duck feed which
has practically driven the ducks away
from the Utah lake
However. the consensus Of opinion at
these meetings was To the effect that u
was the market fishermen who got away
with the bass in Utah lake. and not the
say that bass Will drive carp out in time
and that bass will feed on carp SHAWN.
They claim that tho seiners in Utah lake
caught the bass. out Of the lake and be-
lieve now that IL is folly for the state
10 plant more bass unless this practice is
stopped as the same thing will occur
again. While 10 lis against the law 10

Fight Left.

Joe Cans. the greatest fighter the world
has ever known. has decided to take in
hand Young Corbett. formerly the great
est little battler of his inches in America.
who has now fallen into bad ways
through lack of proper care and training,
and will match him against the best light
weights in the land, with the understand
ing that Young Corbett places himself
unreseryedly in his (Gans) hands and
submits to the course Of training and
preparation Cans thinks proper. Under
these conditions Cans SAYS he will train
and fit COrbett to whip any lightweight
living and will back him with his own
money. Here is Cans own story Of what
he purposes to do with Young Corbett:

the way We did it.
THAT was when ] was under Herford
before / made up my mind 10 fight for
myself. anu fight on the level, and try 20

AT first the plan was for Britt TO win.
HerfOrd fixed 10 up that way. ] was 10

But / wouldn't stand for that. / told
Herford that I'd go out and win anyway.
So he had TO change t. and fix ii for me
10 win from Britt on a foul. Britt got
the 6Ti2 per cent then for losing. He was
TO make a great fight for five rounds and
then lose his head and foul me Graney
was to give the decision. IL all went off
the way we reheaTsed IT, We got 221s

OF the French car were conceded, and the

for them.

WALTER MILLER
HONEST JOCKEY
Greatest Rider of Age Has Re-
SpeCt of Race Officials
and the Public.

Racing records for 1906 prove Walter
Miller the most phenomenal rider that
ever threw a leg over a pigskin racing
saddle During the year just closed the
little lad rode 3S winners. ninety more
than the best previous record wrested
by Eugene Hildebrand from Tod Sloan
in 1904 Critics Of Miller. and there are
not a few. despite the worship of the
great mass OF race-goers. Will poinf o,tt
and that in a vast majority Of races he
was or much the best horse. which could
have won for almost any other Jockey
II was easy TO see why trainers and
owners sought out Miller TO ride their
good things IL was not because of his
reputed pull with the starter nor because
he so frequently beat the gate. but. more
than anything else. because he was hon
est and never allowed a swelled head TO
interfere with his riding.
Always Does His Best.
Miller always did his best and for This
reason alone should be "A pattern 10 all
riders, especially to the young appren-
tees who hope 10 edge into the lime
light when age and tickle fortune have
pulled Miller from the pedestal of public
admiration, az has been every other joe
key idol before him.
On the face of the returns Miller is
the greatest Of jockeys. But there have
been many riders of greater ability Mar
tin and Radtke never failed to outride
him when they so listed. but Radtkes
work was ragged. and he now rests I'M
der the suspension and suspicion OF the
jockey club. while Martin is fast falling
victim 10 serious vice contracted in
trying to offset the weakness eugendcred
by excessive reducing.
More than once. however, the finger
OF suspicion has been pointed at Mar
tin. Miller. because Of his character. is
deserving OF praise without stint His
earnings last season eclipsed those Of the
president of the United States. perhaps
doubled them.
The lads money has been saved with
all the thrift inherent i'm his race and
shrewdly invested. so that his family
has been lifted from penury to plenty.
His little brothers and sisters are well
fed clothed. housed. and are being edu-
