If you see Old Sport and his retinue
hanging around the Four Corners with
tears in their eyes, condole with them.
They need support in this hour of dis
tress. In every city INC every little
shebanS in the State where there are
a coterie of sports-and / don't mea
the gambling kind, either-you will
notice that the good fellows are deeply
depressed. They had good reason to
be. If you should see a hearse going
through the streets carrying nothing
else save a pair of lone boxing gloves
you will understand why the general
community of this entire State is weep
ing.
Boxing Bill Killed.
Only a couple of weeks ago toe off
| my hat to Sheriff Sommer n his
gallant crew. who stood for clean
t~hree-round boxing bouts. I smiled
every time L saw Major Braun of the
same crew, and wished him we'll for
the Braun boxing bill, but 1 was alto
gether too previous. Last night the
boxing bill got a solar plexus and was
killed in the House. 1t will not zee
daylight again Mt this session, and The
sporting fraternity who hoped that they
would have a chance to attend some
shows where two men could defend
themselves in the manly art will nave
to be contented with stealing away to
side places n watching private lights.
1t is too bad that the Braun bill didn't
go through, but come to think of it, the
sports themselves are to blame.
No ETor Made.
While Sheriff Sommer and Assembly,
man Braun did their utmost to have
the bin passed, and so did some of the
local lawmakers, not a soul went
from this county to say a good word
for the bill.
If the Legislators had only taken this
into consideration they would surely
have reached the conclusion tina the
Braun bill was not in the interests of
pug managers, but framed to prevent
the breaking of the law. Boxing
matches will be held everywhere in
spite of the law. Tell the American
young man that he must not do SOM
thing and he will go right out and do
the opposite. The public will patronizc
boxing affairs If held under clean sur
roundings and within the spirit of man
illness, but the pug manager, generally
speaking, has no use for the tame
affairs. They want the skin-tight
glove and the interior of some dog pit
to hold their fights. These men didn't
care about the bill and didn't go to
Trenton to have it pas ed. They will
continue holding private fights, while
the young gymnasium man will run a
chance Of being arrested If he invites
q few friends to his home, erects a
ring and puts on a pair of boxing
gloves. These make rhe fun a misde-
lneanor and liable to punishment.
But the sports, l mean the clean

REPUBLICANS WELL SATISFIED

REPUBLICANS WELL SATISFIED.
The indications throughout ihe
state arr indeed encouraging for the
republicans. There is not the slight
est trace remaining Of the factionalism
that has been such factor in disrupt
ing the party for several years past,
but instead the party is thoroughly
united ali along the line and is work
ing as unit for the ticket from top
to bottom
AS regards the national ticket there
is not the slightest fear but it will
be carried by the old time republican
majority. Mr.. Bryan is not to be
trusted and the republicans know it.
He has many good promises but when
it comes 10 carrying them into effect
there's not one can tell what the chan
ces are. Among the things that the
people are uncertain about Is what
would the Nebraslzan do in case the
gold reserve should become exhausted
and he we're president Walter Well
man has asked Mr. Bryan what he
would do under these circumstances
and he failed to receive an answer.
Under those circumstances MI Bryan
as president would have power to
make free silver the basis of Our
money and believing as he does he
would very likely do it These and
and other uncertainties that are liable
70 a:ise at any time make it precari-
GUS thing to put a man in power who
has advocated so many ruinous poll
cies- On the other hand the repub-
licans have in Mr.. Taft a man who
has made good in every position to
which he has been called He has
been a great success as a servant of
| the public. is pledged and in hearty
accord with doctrines as laid down
by the Roosevelt administration and
; will carry ON the work so ably started.
This is what the people want, regard
less of party and they will vote for it.
In the state there is also every In
dication of republican victory. There
is not but the best of words for Mr.
| Burke as man. he is conceded to be
a thorough gentleman, bu. On the
other hand there is the fact that C. A.
Johnson of Minot, is also a thorough
! gentleman. The two men are equal

THE DISTRICT MEETING

The district meeting OF the editors
OF the second judicial district which
vas held il this city Tuesday was
we'll attended and was great inspir-
alton 10 those in attendance. Reports
from all parts OF the district point to
good chances for the party and
growing strength
The newspaper boys are all putting
their shoulder TO the wheel and push

November
1t was the pleasure OF those present
TO meet Mr. Johnson candidate for
governor. Those in attendance were
very well impressed by the gentleman
and are determined to make his maj
ogity this fall such as North Dakota
used to give in the old days before
the party was split up by fac,ional-
ism.
The meetings that are being held
throughout the state in the various
judicial districts are a great help to
the party. as through them the edi-
tors are set right on matters which
they Go not in some cases understand

We do not believe that the Chronic"
fails to realize that this Is to a large
extent the case, but he has such a
cross-ways disposition and his head
is so set on evening old scores, and he
IS so disappointed at not being able
to reach those who were at one time
