The Waco Times-Herald is opposed
to compulsory education just because
Thomas Jefferson would have opposed
it, in the Times-Herald's opinion. If
compulsory education is wrong, then
it is wrong to tax people to pay for
free education of the children. The
Times-Herald apparently forgets that
parties. Just like all citizens and all
institutions, must be progressive, and
that Thomas Jefferson would now,
perhaps, look at matters from the
viewpoint of modern democrats.-Dal-

The Herald gives an appeal from
President Silliman of the Organized
Charities the most conspicuous posi-
ton in the paper today, because it re:
CARDS it as one of the most important
items of public interest at this time.
if you do we feel sure you will be
moved to do your duty by the poor.
Palestine people can always be de-
pended upon to do their duty. and
they will excel in generosity on this
occasion Of this we feel sure.

DO YOUR DUTY.

Picture in your mind home where
children awake on Christmas morning
to the sad realization that Santa Claus
did not find them, and imagine the
disappointment in such home. the
impression on the minds of such chill
dren. Now such a thing is possible
right here in this good town, where
we know comparatively little of pow
erty and want There are always
some unfortunates who feel their con-
dition more keenly when the whole
world around them is happy and
bright. And to prevent this very
thing the Organized Charities come
as an angel of mercy to minister to
the wants of the unfortunate. This
organization is composed of Palestine
men and women who have their pri-
yate business affairs to look after
just as you. but they are moved by
the spirit of Kindness to help the less
fortunate bear their burdens. To do
this work they depend upon your CO.
operation and generosity, and can
only do as much as your means and
their means will permit. And this
brings us to what we started out to
say, that you are invited to send a
check to Mr. ]. NJ. Fullinwider, treas
urer of the association, that it may be
used for the comfort and help of the
poor. A few years ago the Herald
undertook a campaign to make Christ
mas a success for the poor children
of the town, and the good people OF
the town contributed their money and
means in a manner that almost took
our breath, and the movement was a
great success. We want to see that
occasion outdone, because the work
is organized now and much more
good can be accomplished. Mail
check today, and you will feel better,
and Christmas morning you will have
the satisfaction of knowing that some
where in the city some little tot is
happy as result of your generosity.
Get busy today.

by the fact that he lives in the north

A rumor is current in Washington
Arizona republican., 1908-09-08

Through the ninth and tenth both men rained dozens of blows. more than half of which went wild, Ketchel fighting with both eyes shut. He was spatter- cd with blood, which every time he clinched with Papke, covered the thunderbolt with gore which made him look as though red and white sash had become woven all around his body.
 In the tenth both men missed re peatedly. KetchePs face was blurred with blots like butchers meat on a block. In the eleventh blood began pouring from his mouth in jets like water from geyser. The gong saved him just as he was knocked through the ropes.
 Another minute finished him. with Papke almost as strong as when he entered the ring. Ketchel was carried to his dressing room and he presented a terrible spectacle. Both eyes were swollen into great black puffs, com pletely closed. His lips were cut and swollen to several times their normal size. His whole face was beaten, cut and puffed out of shape. He lay help less and almost unconscious.
 HIS HldHdBer, Joe . COHHor, sdlu. There's nothing to it. The best man won. You can see for yourself how my man looks. How could I do any thing?"
 Papke was bright, chipper and ex- ultant over his victory. He said: T always knew I was the best man. You notice I didn't shake hands with him. The time we fought before he hit me when I shook hands with him. This time I took no chances. I got him first, that was all.'
 ,Papke was absolutely unhurt The only mark on him was an abrasion be- low the belt. where he said Ketchel struck him.

The Former Champion Was Hammered Into
 ShdpeIeSS Mass.
In a Minute and Half From the Opening of tn C Bout the Michigan Killer Was Defeated Man. BlOOdest Fight in Ring History.

Los Angeles, Sept. 7.-Stanley Ket-
 chel of Michigan, former middle light weight champion of the world, was
 knocked out in the twelfth round at the Jeffries Vernon arena, at o'clock
 this afteryOon by Billie" Papke of H.
 linois, now the middle weight cham
 piOn. It was a case of the Illinois
 thunderbolt against the Michigan kill
 CT and the thunderbolt won Both men entered the ring apparently in perfect condition, and neither was
 ever knocked out. Ketchel got a de- cision over Papke in a previous ten
 round bout. The bout ended was one
 of the bloodieSt in ring history.
 Ketchel wore the air of an unde- feated conquerer and was plainly a great favorite with the crowd, which had been betting on him.
 When Papke came in he walked blithely to KetcheTs corner and greet ed him with a hand-shake and a cor dial smile, but when James J. Jeffries, the referee, called time and Ketchel came to the center extending his hand for a shake, Papke ignored his hand and sailed into the Michigan killer with a fiery impetuosity which well
 entitled him to be called the thunder bolt.
 The fight was practically over in a minute and twenty seconds after the gong sounded. From that time on it was merely a question of how long Ketchel would last. Papke tore into Ketchel with such impetuosity that the undefeated ring champion was simply lifted off his feet four times within the next minute. Papke knock
 ed Ketchel to the mat for the count
 From that first knockdown Ketchell never really recovered form. He was
 a defeated man, dazed, bleeding and
 struggling from twenty blows in the
 face, yet he came back and stayed with lterrible determination.
 i For the last three rounds he held
 his own with his victorious challenger. IWhen eKtchel stepped to the center ! for the second round it was seen that Ihis right eye was closed. At the next Iintermission his seconds lanced his eye socket and sucked the blood, but Ket-
 chell never regained the sight of his right eye. Before the finish the other | eye was all but closed, but for the last
 three rounds he staggered about the
 ring dizzy like a drunken man and
 practically blind.
 In the third Ketchel showed the best
 form when he forced Papke through | the ropes, but the bell sounded and he stepped with his long feline stride | eagerly for his corner.
 Through the fourth, fifth and sixth
 rounds, Papke seemed to be babying
 his man along, seeming to give the crowd a run for their money. He dar- ed not give his man much of show, however. The killer seemed ugable to land once any kind of a blow that would have won him the bet. In the seventh Ketchels mouth was
 sucking air like an oyster. Papke's
 lower lip and jaw stuck out like the | lid on a camera.
 | In the eigth round Ketchel's smile became ghastly. The sweet corners of his mouth that smiled so boyishly when he came into the arena first were curled up in a sick imploring grin.
 Papke was now attempting with all | his ferocity to put his man out.

tion shall be drawn between the labor organization and the industrial monop- oly.
 The trust and the labor organiza- tion cannot be described in the same language. The trust magnates have used their power to amass swollen for tunes, while no one will say that the labor organization has as yet secured for its members more than their share of the profits arising from their work But there are fundamental differences. The trust is a combination of dollars; the labor organization is an association of human beings. In a trust a few men attempt to control the product of others; in a labor organization, the members unite for the protection of that which is their own, namely, their own labor, which, being necessary to their existence, is a part of them. The trust deals with dead matter; the labor organization deals with life and with intellectual and moral forces. No inn partial student of the subject will deny the right of the laboring man to ex- emptiOn from the operation of the eX- isting antitrust law.

 There are two questions. however. intimately connected with the labor problem upon which the democratic and republican parties do not agree, and I not only feel at liberty to dis cuss these, but, under the circum- stances. I have no right to ignore them. One relates to the issues of injunctions, and the other to contempt cases aris- ing under injUnctions. The republi- can convention did not deal candidly with the laboring man on the subject of the writ of injunction.

EVEN FIGHT
 WITH ATTELL Neither Satisfied With the
 Decision,
Moran, t h. e Englishman, Wants Return Match of FOrty-Five Rounds.

Colma Arena, San Francisco. Sept 7-Abe Attell the champion feather weight of America, and owen Moran, England's premier boxer in the same division, fought a drawn battle in the open air arena this afternoon in the presence of about 5000 spectators. The battle lasted 23 rounds. At the conclusion of the contest Referee Jack Welch unhesitatingly grasped both lads by the hand signifiying that the fight was a draw. The decision seem ed tO please the crowd. There were cheers galore for each fighter as they left the ring side. The fight on the whole was rather tame. but this was offset ythe cleverness exhibited by both fighters.
 The fight was very even and was characterized by Moran's aggressive ness and Attell's cleverness in block ing and all around work from de- fensive standpoint. The concensus of opinion indicates that the Hebrew has gone back quite a bit, and lacks the dazzling speed which governed his previous battles.
 After the fight Moran said: "l broke my right hand in the second round. After that it was almost use less. At that 1 think I won by mile. I am willing to fight Attell 45 rounds, winner to take all
 An Associated Press representative visited the Englishman in his dressing room after the contest and carefully examined the arm which Moran claim ed was broken. The arm was badly swollen around the thumb but 1t was not possible to verify the claim of a broken arm. Moran's face was much cut and his left eye nearly closed as a result of Attell's almost ceaseless prodding.
 On the other hand Attell emerged from the scrimmage without mark Attell gave out statement, after be- ing informed of Moran's challenge for return match: '1 will fight no one forty-five rounds, not even for my mothers sake. I want to live while yet. But I will give him a return ! match for any number of rounds up tc twenty-five. I beat him at every stage. I bear no marks. while he is cut up. As to breaking his hand, look at the dislocated knuckle of my right hand. It went back on me early in the fight"
 An examination of Attel's right hand disclosed the fact that the middle knuckle was disjointed. A resume of the fight by rounds shows that Attel had more or less advantage in nine rounds. Moran was given six, and the | balance show even hOnors.

The Greatest Labor Day Demonstration in
 Unionism' History.
The Candidate Explains to His Hearers Wherein the Courts, Capital and Society Generally Has Been Giving Them the Worst of It.

Chicago, Sept. 7.-William J. Bryan was the chief figure today in the greatest demonstration of organized labor ever Offered in this country. From a stand in front of the national democratic headquarters he reviewed 10000 shouting paraders.
 When MT. Bryan arrived this morn ing from Lincoln he was met by many prominent democrats and of cicials and leaders of labor unions preceded by brass bands. His jour ney to the democratic headquarters was a moving ovation. He spoke at an Iriquois Club luncheon and later he delivered the Labor Day address at Forest Park. Tonight Mir. Bryan ad- dressed the electrical workers at Brands park.
 NIr Bryan in the beginning of his speech at Forest Park, ad- dressed himself to the dig nifty of labor and the usefulness of labor organizations, not only to those within the organization, but to all la borers. He did not assume that a labor organization, being under human direction, was perfect but he said that if the emplOye has sometimes resorted to violence. so sometimes, has the employer resurted to unfair methods to secure more than his share of the joint product
 He said: The labor organization has been seriously handicapped by the fact that it has been-and I am not sure that it has not been done unwittingly -yoked up with the industrial combi- nations known as trusts. The prone ness of trust defenders to use the la bor organization as an excuse for combinations in restraint of trade has aroused the suspicion that they have been cIassed together for the purpose of shielding the combinations of capi- tai As the result of eighteen years of antitrust legislation, only one man has been given a penal sentence for violating the federal law on this sub ject, and that man was a member of a labor organization rather than a trust magnate.
