AL KAUFMAN RIPE.
Delaney Thinks He Is Just About
the Best That Ever Hap
Dened.

NEW YORK. October 24-Billy De-
laney says that AL Kaufman is ready
at last to fight for the heavyweight
championship. For years the champion
maker has watched kaufmann's prog
ress and has been bringing him slowly
to the front.
I'm all wrapped up in this boy" said
Delaney. When he's fighting I may
nervous and excited. AL Is ready now
for the best of them. ! believe he is Il
better man than Burns. In fact, I'm
sure AL can beat him.
When he was an amateur he used to
knock them all out with a right hand
swing. That won't do among expert
enced men. A fellow leaves himself too
open, and a clever man will catch him
and drop him. The first thing 1 said to
AL when l took hold of him was: Now,
might as well cut that right arm off and
throw it away. You've got to learn how
to knock them out with your left
He did it, too. AL has a great left
hand-better than his right When he
knocked Bradley down with his right the
other night, he went against my instruc-
lions. But I suppose he saw an opening
and found he could shoot the right into
it safely. and the temptation was too
much for him. It's all right to take ad-
vantage of an opening any time.
I'D much rather see AL fighting longer
distances than six rounds. He's used to
the long fights now. and isn't gated for
the short. He put Bradley out quickly
enough. but some clever fellow that he
would surely whip in long fight might
stay six rounds with him and succeed
in outpointing him. Al is a good boxer,
but he's better fighter. I'd like to make
his next fight for the worlds champion
ship. When AL wins that I'll be willing
to retire from the game and take life
easy.
I've noticed one thing about Kauf-
mann that you don't find in other fight
ers. No man that he whips ever wins
a hard fight afterward. They don't re-
cover from the punishment he hands
out

afternoon in a game that was marked for
snappy playing by both teams. In the
first half the visitors looked as though
they would not score but in the second
half they began a series of forward passes
that eclipsed anything seen on the local

but in the last five minutes of play Capt.

that there were "sone first-termers

A HOME REMEDY
Endorsed by Leading Druggists As
Excellent for Stomach Troubles.

The manager for a prescription drug
store in Chicago, a store that fills more
prescriptions than any other drug
store in the country. says that the fol-
lowing prescription is positively the
best that they ever filled for stomach
trouble:
Compound Tincture Of Cinchona. one
ounce; PTosene Compound, one ounce;
and Sherry Wine half a pint: mix and
take in teaspOOnful doses before each
meal and at bedtime in a wine glass of
water
He states that it is the Prosene
Compound that does the work. This
preparation supplies the stomach with
Pancreatic Juice. and this is what di-
gests what you eat. and with the help
of the greatest vegetable tonics known
to science the results are marvellous
Any druggist can fill this simple pre-
scriptiOn. AS Prosene Compound is put
up for prescription use only. so every
prescription drug store has il in stock

to rebates. free service and passes.
However, in the last six years the
railroads had advanced their rates in
many directions and lowered them IN
only a few when directed to do 50 by
decisions of the interstate commerce
commission. He said the law should
be manded to prohibit railroads from
raising their rates without the ap-
prevail of the interstate commerce
commission. and that on demand they
should show the reasonableness of any
rate to the commission, instead of
having the burden of proof of this I'M
reasonableness rest on the people, as
it is at present.
Mr.. Cowan closed with a strong Plea
in favor of the leasing system and
against the open range.
A letter was read from Clifford Pin
chot. the national forester, who was
unable to be present owing TO the Ill
ness of his father. He made it clear
that the whole dispute over the open
range and the government leasing
system was merely a fight for the
control of the range.

the fundamental principles Of the

the small man make a living for his
family than help the big man make a

A. F. Potter, assistant forester, rep
resented Mr.. PinchOt, and in a briee
address told what the forestry depart
ment was doing for the benefit of the
cattle and sheep men. He said that
the recommendations Of the conven-
ton would be given serious attention
by all the government officials, and
the administration would be largely

camp last night. zone thing is GER
tain," he continued. land that is that
the mines will be worked to their full

ger of violence on the part of the law

Zone very gratifying feature of the
situation is that the Goldfield Miners
union realizes the fact that a cam
paign of violence will result in its total
humiliation in the state of Nevada,
troops or no troops, for the conserva-
tive element of that organization has,
during the past few weeks, completely
dominated the councils of the union.
An independent Union.
another indication that Goldfeld
will enjoy permanent peace and pros
perity lies in the fact that the indie
pendent movement, inaugurated by
Thomas O'Brien on the lines of the
Virginia City Miners union, is gaining
great Roadway, especially as it is meet
ing with the encouragement of great
many of the miners themselves.
The high-grading element, which for
months reveled in the loot of the mines,
has been eliminated from the union
and driven from the camp. This was
the class which brought about the pres
ent troubles in Goldfield, as it did in
Cripple Creek, and realizing that the
very life of the union was threatened,
the honest members took possession.
Union May Dsband.
1T is not at all unlikely that the To-
cal union No. 300 will disband and join
the Independent organization launched
by O'Brie1, In fact, such a proposition
is openly advocated by many of the
prominent members of the Goldfeld
union, as it has been pointed out, clear
ly and Enthusiastically, that the new or
ganiZation will receive full recognition
and that it is not improbable that the
old wage scale will be restored.
For the next several months a cur
tailment in Goldfeld's production may
be expected, but the ore is there in vast
quantities, and only the final settle
ment of differences between the mine
owners and the miners stands between
a heavily increased output of wealth.

peal to the president for the troops
