Kelley vs..

Battle For
Belt

This is the day of the Ketchel-
Kelly go in San Francisco, when the
rugged Montana boy defends his title
against the sturdy middleweight from
Chicago. Jack Walsh referees the
go, which takes place before the
Pacific Athletic Club. Ketchel was
expected to step into the ring 2-to-
1 favorite, though the earlier bet
ting was at the odds 10 to Z.
Kelly is undoubtedly the cleverer
boxer, but he seems to lack the STAN
ina of the Montana boy, and for this
reason alone is SO far from being a
public choice.
He had his condition in good shape
before he ever came west from Chi
cago. and should have been in the
finest fettle when he knocked of

II is not yet over. In fact, the UNI.

PAID MONEY FOR A PEEP.
Children Alleged Woman Sold Holes
 in Baseball Fence.

Charged with selling permission to outsiders to come into her yard and look through the holes in her fence at the baseball game at Piedmont park without license, Mrs. M. Hatchett appeared in the police court at At lanta, Ga, and after hearing she was allowed her freedom by the Recorder.
 Detective Lockhart made the case at the instance of the police officer at the park It was stated that Mrs Hatchett charged five cents a head to look through the cracks and holes in her fence, which is part of the fence enclosing the baseball ground, and see the games. One little boy was in court as witness, and testified to having paid Mrs. Hatchett's little , girl nickel to see the game, but not being we'll pleased with the location had his money refunded and left
 Mrs. Hatchett denied that she charged any money for looking through the holes. There was no evil dence produced during the trial that Mrs. Hatehett was engaged in such a business, and Judge Broyles dis missed the, case on condition that the lady did not accept any pay from those people whom she allowed to go into her yard and see the games.

OPPOSITION cENTERED AGAINST FEDERAL APPolNTEEs.

The opposition in Arizona to send ing an instructed delegation to the national republican convention, has been created by the interested activi- ty of federal appointees at Phoenix, who met by appointment political emi- saries of the present administration several months ago and the contract taken to deliver Arizona, instructed and bound, as best suited the occupant of the white house in his efforts to nominate the next president of the United States, without even the for, mality of confirmation by the senate.
 The proposition, advanced by re publican paper in Yavapai county and another republican paper in Graham county, to send to the national con vention two federal judges, marked the division between the federal ap- pointees and majority of their party. The federal appointees are naturally interested in securing an instructed delegation They have pledged their honor and reputation as politicians on delivering the goods" but their impertinent interference and medal ing, coupled with their dictatorial poli- cy, is serving the opposite purpose. The Taft instructed campaign is not carrying weight in Arizona and is los ing ground in more than one state and territory from this very same cause. Taft should be saved from bis overzealous friends"

ukase pointing to the wisdom of an instructed delegation from Arizona for the man who has the favor of the national administration. But this ukase has not met with favor in sev- eral of the big counties of the terri tory and from the pine clad hills of Yayapai to the copper stained hills of Cochise there seems to be senti- ment against instruction which win not be overcome. In Yayapai all the big republican guns are trained against the proposition to instruct the delegation; in Pima county this sentiment is practically unanimous and in Cochise county the federal ofi' cials are wisely keeping in the back ground to escape being run over by those who are opposing the Kibbey plan.

THE POLITICAL CAMPAIGN RAILROADS AND CORPORATIONS,

~~'N- |
 The next few months will mark strenuous political campaign in this country and until it has been passed and settled by the votes of the ma jcrity of the American people, busi- ness conditions will necessarily be more or less unsettled. Should Sec retary Taft or Theodore Roosevelt be the republican candidate and W. U. Bryan the democratic candidate, thosel republicans and democrats who are op- posed to the policies of Roosevelt and Bryan, so far as regulation of the railroads is concerned will find them selves between a certain hot place and the traditional deep sea.
 There is no mistaking the sentiment of the people with reference to gov ernment regulation and control over interstate carrying railroads There is no issue between the two leading parties on this question. and whether Mir. Taft, Mir Roosevelt or MT. Bryan is elected president, this policy will be continued until the last vestige of re bating discrimination has been eradi- cated from our railway systems. Ev- cry citizen. with the possible excep- ton of the political demagogues, will be free to admit that the great rail road lines of the country have been, and win continue to be. an important factor in the growth and development of the country and will desire to see government regulation undertaken in that spirit. In the beginning of rail road expansion in the west the peo- pie, through congress, legislatures and municipalities, encouraged by gifts and favorable legislation their con, struction. Like the commodity trusts the railways in the early days were treaed as an infant industry and their every request was granted. 4 major portion of the time of congress and state legislatures was occupied with the passage of laws favorable tc their interests, until the railroads ab rogated to themselves the right tC adopt policies inimical to the prosper ity and welfare of the people. For long time the people have suffered from extortionate freight rates and un fair and dishonest discriminations anC

GOT THROUGH WITH WINGS.
They Could Be Transferred to the
 Rival Company.

You may have read" said the trav- cling agent of an oil company to the Rochester Democrat, you may have read that at an investigation by in terstate-commerce commissioners wit nesses said even ministers of the gos- pei were bribed to help the oil of a certain company along. That may be pretty strong, but let me tell you about a certain deacon in certain town on my route. After had taken orders in the town for time found him opposed to me. He was getting gallon of kerosene free each week, and the way he did talk up the other company was blissful to hear. My buyers found that he was hurting the sale of my oil and wanted me to strug- gle with him. I was delaying the matter and wondering how best to ap- proach the deacon, when I ran across him at the depot one day on my ar rival I knew he did not drink and did not smoke and 1t was embarrass- ing to tell just how to approach him. While I was hanging around friend whispered to me that the other com pany had gone back on the deacon and was no longer supplying him free. With this knowledge in my possession I braced up to him and said:
 "'Well, deacon, hope to convince you yet that my kerosene will give more light than any other made "'Um!' he replied as he twiddled his thumbs.
 "T should like to give Perkins, the grocer. orders to leave gallon at your house every week free of cost to you
 'Weil-I-don't-m he slowly replied
 You can see how 1t compares with the other company's, you know. have heard you say that the president of the other concern deserved angels wings
 "'Yes, I believe have said some. thing to that effect "'And his kerosene still continues to give the best of satisfaction, does itT
 "'Well--er-I couldn't say that. am not burning any of 1t now "1ndeedi And troubleF
 "'No particular trouble. except that President Blank seemed to get tired of wearing the angel wings fastened on to him, and now if you want then you can tell Perkins to send around the gallon weekly!"

NO CHARGE FOR IT.
The Laundry Man Gives the Bachelor
 Man a Little Lesson In Nerve.


 When I came to open my bundle of stuff sent home from the laundry this morning" said the bachelor man, q found in 1t, sent back washed but not ironed, one shirt that had pinned to it ticket reading like this:
 We are returning this shirt on ac- count of it not being in a condition to withstand ironing. -
 This was a new one to me, but when I came to open up the shirt and looked it over I didn't wonder that they hadn't tried to iron it; one arm was all but torn from it's socket and there was hole punched through one cuff, with a tear extending from this hole for an inch or two up the sleeve. The shirt was sure not in condition for ironing, but how did it get so?
 q certainly never sent it to the laundry in that shape. I'd have had hard work tearing the sleeve out Of, the shoulder the way this one was torn, and I couldn't have made that hole in the cuff without some sort of cAdAp dl1u puASh. SAC1AGs NAS shirt had been torn and mangled in that manner by being caught in the laundry machinery, and so I wrapped it up in a neat little bundle and took 1t over to the laundry office, intending to make claim for. the value of it. I spread the shirt out on the counter and called the clerks attention to 1t and told him that couldn't have torn the shirt in that manner, it must have been done in the laundry, and how about it?
 Well says the clerk. we made no charge for It.
 "As the full significance of this came upon me-they had torn my shirt all to pieces, but they didn't make any charge for it'll staggered back, and I kept on staggering that way until had got out of the door.
 'T shall never make any further l claim for the shirt I got back far m5re than it's value in that lesson in clear, cold nerve"

rebates until at this time patience has ceased to be a virtue, and the people who gave the railroads their charters, who made lavish gifts of lands and bonds, have come to the realization that the time, has arrived for their regulation. The railroads will be com peled to obey the present laws of the country, and if the present laws are not sufficient to control the evil, addi- tional laws win be passed by the peo- insuring 6 square deal" to shippers and consumers as well as a legitimate and commensurate profit to the rail roads. It matters little whether the duty of enforcing the laws regulating railroads falls upon democratic or republican shoulders. The American people, regardless of politics, are a unit on this proposition.
 That the railroads have certain rights. which must be respected. is fully recognized by all, with the pos sible exception of the frenzied poll tician, who has his ear on the ground and seeks to>ride into office on the | wave of popular sentiment. He uses 
 the word corporation in general as a synonym for all that is bad and vi cious, and knows no bounds to his vo- cabulary in picturing capitalists" and predatory wealth"
 In the movement now on foot for the proper and legal regulation of in terstate railroads, and intra-state rail roads as well, the socialist agitator should be guarded against also as an evil, who is forever dissatisfied and | who, if allowed to have his way, would cripple the legitimate business of the country. Corporations are necessary for our business growth and prosperi- ty. It is through the means of combi- nation of capital that great things are accomplished and the movement for regulation of interstate railways should not. be crystalized into a cry against all corporations of every kind
 and description, which would tend to make capital timid and the develop
 ment of our resources slow. But
 business prosperity will return to the country more quickly when the rail
 roads come to the realization that dis
 criminations, rebates and extraordi ment viii be made.
 nary high freight rates are thing oi
 the past, and set about adjusting theil
 operations to the new conditions.

William Randolph Hearst, at the meeting of the representatives of the Independence League in Chicago last week, made speech to those present in which he advocated the formation of new national party. There was fair representation from several states and committee was appointed to call national convention for the purpose of nominating candidate for president This is probably the fare well of Hearst, so far as the demo cratic party is concerned. A good many democrats have been expecting to see the Hearst newspapers fall into line with the Bryan column, but it seems that Mir Hearst is determined to do no more for Bryan this year than Bryan did for Hearst in 1904, when the latter was trying to get the democratic nomination for president. We expect to see MT. Hearst the can didate of the Independence League for president.

HOW TO CURE A NOSE BLEED.
Some Suggestions Made to a Sufferer
 by a Sympathetic Crowd.

A man whose nose was bleeding stood in the alley near the sidewalk south of the Dwight building the other afternoon, his head bowed and the blood dropping rapidly to the ground. A crowd of sympathizers and question CTS gathered around him, says the Kansas City Star.
 Say, fellow, if your right nostril is bleeding hold your left hand high in the air for a minute or two" one man suggested. Up went the hand of the sufferer. -
 "A better way to stop it Is to hold key down your back as far as possible, something like this." another member of the crowd suggested. The man with the bleeding nose fumbled in his pocket for a second and brought forth a key, which he showed down his back and held 1t there for time.
 "A better way than that is to stick a roll of paper or something under the upper lip," a third one suggested. The man drew a piece. of paper from his pocket and stuck 1t under the upper lip.
 Say, pardner, the trouble is youi blood has a tendency to flow upward Now, if you will stand on your head and allow the blood to flow the other way it willsstop that nose bleeding ai once"
 This was too much for the man witt the bleeding nose. Holding hand kerchief to his nose he pushed wa! through the crowd and walked rapidl, down the street.
 If that man would only lay Hat O his back and hold his feet in the ali his nose would stop bleeding at once, was parting suggestion. But th' man with the bleeding nose did no hear him.

Choir Boys, Pet Snakes.

Garter snakes, grass snakes, and water snakes nearly stampeded the congregation of northwest district church on Sunday morping last, ow. ing to one of the vested choir boys taking pet garter snake to the choir loft on the previous Sunday, on which day, while the sermon was in prog ress, the owner of the pet allowed the reptile to crawl over the choir railing and around his neck, much to the amusement of the other choir boys. During the week following every boy in the choir went hunting for snakes. As result nearly a dozen snakes Of the harmless varieties were taken to service last Sunday.
 Several of the boys became fright ened at the hissing and darting tongues of their new found pets and the reptiles escaped and were soon wriggling under the feet of the mem bers of the congregation. Screams of women who saw the snakes nearly broke up the meeting. Quiet was re stored after the sexton had captured the serpents.-Philadelphia Record

FEDERAL OFFICIALS WILL NOT CONTROL.

There is hardly a doubt remaining $ to what will be the result of the republican convention of Arizona which will be called next Saturday for the purpose Of selecting delegation from this territory to the national con vention in Chicago next June. It is almost a fixed certainty that the dele gation will be sent to Chicago unin- structed as to who will receive the vote of the territory in the big con vention. There seems to be a prac- ticaI unanimity of sentiment that Arf zona's interest can be best subseryed at Chicago by delegation which shall be free and untrammeled with instructions.
 Then there is strong sentiment throughout the territory against the attempt of the territorial and federal officials of, Arizona to dictate the ac- ton of the party. Early in the game and as. soon as President Roosevelt took his name out of the contest for the nomination and pointed to Secre tary Taft as the man for presiden; Governor Kibbey issued a political

They Don't Like Funerals.

IF you want to know just how
sensitive some Washington folks are.
listen to the reasons some Of our ten
ants give for canceling their leases"
said a renting agent Here are the
complaints from five families who
want to move because they live on 'fu-
neral Streets A lot of people, it
seems, are sensitive about that There
are certain streets In, town-those near
churches where many funerals are held
and those leading to the various ceme-
teries-which are usually travelled by
funeral parties. Houses in those
streets are becoming poor investment.
There is more moving from those
houses than from any others we have
anything to do with, and generally the
movers give as the reason for their dis
satisfaction the fact that the sight of
so many hearses gets on their nerves."

Beat tho First Locomotive on tho 3.
and Q. Road.
The first locomotive on the Baltimore
and Ohio had sails attached So did
the cars. These sails were hoisted
when the wind was In the right direc-
ton so as to help the locomotive.
The rivalry between the railroads
using locomotives and those using
horses was very bitter In August,
1880, an actual trial Of speed was held
between horse and one of the pioneer
locomotives, which did not result in
favor of the locomotive The race was
on the Baltimore and Ohio, the locomo-
tive being one built by Peter Cooper,
who also acted as engineer.
The horse, gallant gray. was in the
habit of pulling a car on track par
allel to that used by the locomotive.
At first the gray had the better of the
race, but when he was a quarter Of a
mile ahead Mr.. Cooper succeeded in
getting up enough steam to pass the
horse amid terrific applause.
At that moment, a band slipped from
pulley, and, though Mr.. Cooper LAGER
ated his hands trying to replace it. the
engine stopped and the horse passed it
and came In the winner."-Van Nor

1t is said that the queer. composite
race Of people that dwell upon the
waterlogged hulks Of the Saragossa
sea, in the mid-Atlantic, have pretty
theory about death. They believe that
those to whom the messenger comes
when the sun IS shining brightly are
transported straight away to a heaven
Of warm fresh water only four feet in
depth, In which they may wade and
disport themselves to all eternity. On
the other hand, those who receive the
call Of death In hours of darkness
must needs endure probationary Pc
Rod before they can enter into the
future life. The Earagossans are In
addition firm believers In premoni-
lions, omens and foreordinAtions.
