CHAMPION ATTELl
is TOO AMBITIOUS

When Abe Attell. the featherweight
champion, announced his desire to tackle
Joe Cans at the lightweight limit-133
pounds-he exhibited AN insincere ambi-
ton. Attell is good featherweight; in
fact, up to the present time has proven
himself to be the peer of them all. That
superiority. however, gives him no license
to tackle a man of Cans caliber Attell
can fight comfortably at 122 pounds. Cans
at 1873. A handicap of eleven pounds is
too much for the little fellows to give
each other. No matter from what angle
the match is viewed it appears ridiculous.
No one could scarcely be convinced that
it would be on the level, for both have a
reputation of pulling when there is a
fat purse in sight for return match.
Granting that Attell is as clever as
Cans. the lightweight can hit twice as
ter. Add to this the advantage Of %. or
eleven pounds of weight which he will
enjoy, there is not much chance for At
tell even to have look in" Cans show
ed in his forty-tworound fight with Nell
son that he possesses remarkable endur-
ance; more so than Attell, who, has never
gone any such distance. Should the two
meet 1t is not likely that the bout would
go over fifteen rounds. with the light
weight listening to the count over At
tell.
1t is only natural for the Californian to
seek a match with Cans. 1t would draw
a fairly good gate and the losers end
would be tidy sum. Just why Attell
ignores Robson, Moran or even Jimmy
Britt and makes a dash at Cans is only
explained by his eagerness to get a crack
at fat purse; that is. the losers end.
Robson. who is the 126-pound champion
of England. because Driscoll never beat
him. will fight the Californian at the drop
of the hat All the English boxer asks
is the weight to be 1876 pounds. Now, If
Attell is so willing to box Cans at 1913
he should not hesitate a moment to meet
Robson at 1876 Still Attell might think it
a great disgrace to be beaten by British
err.
Leaving Robson and Britt out of the ar
gument. the Californian has an old score
to settle with Moran. He received the de-
cision over the little Englishman in a
twenty-round bout, and many say it was
not fairly eaTned. Those who carefully
dope out the. relative merits of the two
men believe that Attell can beat Moran
decisive1y. but he must do it to remove
the doubt and retain a clear title.
ANY one of the three men would keep
Attell busy while the fight is on. and
critics think that either Robson or Britt
will have good chance to trim the astute
featherweight. Perhaps that is the rea-
son that he is side-tracking them by
making overtures to Cans.

The Ideal huntlna Trip.

In an ideal hunting trip-which must be in grand country. and in quest of grand game-the death of the coveted prize is only an incident. To a true sportsman. one fine elk noun tain sheep. goat or bear is a sufficient reward for a rough trip into remote wilds. involving many sacrifices, and hundreds of dollars in money.
 The ideal hunting trips are those that are made chiefly for the sake of camping out in a wilderness, with both feet upon virgin soil for the sake of roaming the untouched forests and the unspoiled pastures of the yiid flocks. breathing pure air and looking far; for the sake of tiring the body, resting the mind, and luXuTiating in Natures own domain.-From Golden Days in the ShoshOne Mountains by William T.

SUBSCRIPTION RATES

ID While the retiring Democratic
bwn officials were competent in every
4 4espect and there was no fault to find
with the discharge of their official
duties, the Republican members of
the board of aldermen are justified in
making the changes in the personnel
of the town officials. There is no
other way for the citizens of the town
to make their voices heard in town af-
fairs except through the ballot box, or
voting machine, and it is but proper
that when party is placed in power
it should be held responsible for the
conduct of affairs and that can only be
done by the placing in office of men
who represent the views Of a majority
of the voters. The men selected for
the official positions are experienced
in town affairs and will perform their
duties to the satisfaction of the public.
