The Ban on Profanity.

One of the hopeful signs of the
betterment of society is the ban that
is everywhere being put upon pro-
family. Aside from all religious con-
siderations, no man laying claim to
common decency will larder his
speech with profanity. The man who
in season and ont of season.; uniform
ly cusses and damns his employees
upon the cheap pretext that that is
the only way in which to get work
out of them and keep them in whole
some fear of him, is not only lacking
in the instincts of a gentleman, but is
utterly unfit to govern men. He adj
vertises the poverty of his speech and
the shallowness Of his brain. Time
was when this kind of treatment might
have had some standing in society,"
but that day is happily gone by ana
the man who would now have any
footing in society must clean his mouth
or take his place with the ignorant
lout who considers the vehemence and
volume of his oath sign of mental
alertness. In the company Of ladies
society compels the incorporate talker
to close his lips. Pity it is when he is
free from such restraint his tongue is
not blistered by the oaths he utters. -,

Republican State Ticket.

The republican state convention
completed the ratification of it's work
as laid out by the bosses Saturday and
adjourned. Following is the ticket
Presidential Electors H. A. Comins,
White Pine county; J. G. Thompson,
Esmeralda county; H. NJ. Lillls, Lin
coin county.
United States Senator-Patrick L.
Flanagan. Washoe county.
Congressman-H. B. Maxson, Was
hoe county.
Supreme Judge-Hugh H. Brown,
Nye county.
Surveyor Ahern Story
county.
Long term regents-A. A Codd, Es-
meralda county; Oscar J. Smith, Wash
oe county.
Short term regent-H S. Starrett,
Lander county.
The platform adopted contains the
usual republican CUFF, but fails to point
with pride" to the effects of the republi-
can panic on the prosperity and indus
tries of the country. There is nothing
about the empty dinner pail and the
thousands of idle workmen
On state affairs, the platform de-
mands the enactment of railroad rate
law, the opening of the Carson mint,
the election of U. S. senators by direct
vote OF the people, the enactment of a
better banking law and commends the
course Of Senator Nixon.
The platform lodges the state police
law. 1t neither approves nor condemns
that law, as will be seen from the
following plank:
I'VE, as a party, stand firmly and
unequivocally for law and order, and
the passage and enforcement, without
abuse, of such lawsas shall maintain
the peace and tranquility of the state,
and which shall protect all of our people
i'll life, liberty and property, and we
condemn the democratic party of Ne
vada for it's failure to enforce the
laws and to conserve the interests
of. the people and we further con-
denim democratic extravagances in
creating useless and expensive state
Offices" ...
If any useless Offices have been created
and we think there has. the republicans
are as guilty as the democrats. The
useless offices were created at the last
regular session of the legislature, when
the republicans controlled the senate.
The responsibility for these useless
Offices rests upon both parties. In con
demning the democrats for this the
republicans: show their hypocrisy,

KETCHEL REFUSES TO
CONSIDER ANY OFFER
Especial to The Herald. !

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Dec. g.
Baron Long of the Jeffries Athletic
club of Los Angeles was here tonight
in fruitless effort to get Joe O'Connor
to match Stanley Ketchel with the
winner of the Papke- Kelly fight, which
takes place in the south on the night
of December is. O'Connor absolutely
refused to consider terms and Long
will return to his home some time to-
day. mo chance for Ketchel to sign
at present" said O'Connor. HE leaves
next week for home in Michigan to
spend Christmas holidays, and l want
him to be free to enjoy himself. If
he We're matched that might bother
him. There is no use to talk terms to
me, and Ketchel feels the same way"
"Why not try to get Langford to
meet the winner" was suggested to
Long.
Neither of those fellows in Los An
geles would meet Langford," was the
reply of the fight promoter. "They
would like crack at Ketchel, but not
at the colored boy"

There has been no loaflng on the part
of Abe Atten since the articles were
signed by him and Ad Wolgast to meet
at McCarey's pavilion Friday evening
and battle for the featherweight cham
nionship title Abe knew, as he sat
expeetantly at the ringside last Fri
day evening and saw the contest be-
tween the Milwaukee lad and Young

a real fighter in Wolgast, and when
the boy hooked over the left which
sent the Kid to dreamland, Attell then

himself at once to the training camp
and nut in the remainder of the period
getting ready for the lad with the big
punch.
And every day since Abe has worked
eonscientiously and the result OF ms
careful training is seen in the splendid
condition of the champion. Yesterday
was one of the busiest of the week,
the morning road work being begin
ming of the days toll, which was con-
finued in the East Side gymnasium
in the afternoon. He punched the bag,
manipulated the pulleys, did shadow
work and then took on Dick Hyland
and Fred Corbett for six rounds, Hy-
land standing up for four of these SEES
sions. Abe weighed 121 pounds at the
end of his days toll and he will try
to keep at about this figure until
Weighing in time comes.
WoIgast also put in busy day at
the South Side camp. He worked an
hour in the field and ring, playing
handbalI with Dougherty, punching the
bags, skipping the rope and doing other
stunts He ended up his work with
two rough rounds with Young Dough-
erty, and after his rundown he tipped
the beam at 123- WOlgast said that 1t
would be easy for him to make the
weight required and that he expected
TO be strong at the figure.
The fun program for Friday night is
Abe Atten vs.. Ad wolgast, ten
rounds
Young McGovern VS. frankie Sulli-

WITHHOLD SANCTION
TO RIVAL MARATHON

The members of the Southern Cali
fornia branch of the Pacific Amateur
Athletic association held their regular
monthly meeting last night at the Los
Angeles Athletic club. George Braden
presided and opened the meeting by
reading the resignation of George b.
Culver. Culver stated that he desired
to resign because of family reasons and
that it was impossible for him to at
tend the meetings regularly. The resig-
nation was accepted and DR.. Beach of
the Los Angeles high school was APP
pointed to fill the vacancy. Capt. j. b.
Franklin of the Los Angeles Athletic
club and a member of the board was
appointed secretary to fill the vacancy
caused by Culver's resignation.
The application of the Southern CAL
ifornia Swimming association for per-
mission to run a Marathon race at FL
esta park Christmas day was unani-
mously/ declined by the board. While
the members of the board gave no Spe-
cial reason for declining to sanction the
race, it is probable that they were gov
erened largely by statements made by
several of the Los Angeles Athletic club
officials, who were indignant that such
a movement should be started so near
the New Year Marathon race to Venice
which the club has for many months
been planning to pull off New Years
day. and for which they had received
the formal sanction of the A. A. U.
