BATTLING NELSON
FIGHTS AGAIN TOMORROW

Oklahoma City, Okla, June 21.-
Eyes of pugllistic followers all over
the country are turned toward Okla
homa City today. in anticipation Of
the battle between Battling Nelson,
lightweight champion of the world,
and Jack Clifford. alleged to be the
worlds hardest hitting lightweight
which will be staged in the new state
metropolis tomorrow night. The con-
test will be held in the Auditorium,
and the big theatre will doubtless be
filled to its extreme capacity of 1000.
Choice seats are already selling at
premium, and it is likely that the de-
mand for tickets will far exceed the
supply.
William Guernsey, who has pro-
NOTED many big matches in New York
and Utah, is in charge of the Nelson
Clifford fight. Nelson will receive
$S,500 win, lose or draw, Clifford's
share will be considerably less.

Washington, June 21.-The senate
today took under consideration an am
endment to the tariff bill proposing
that leather boots, shoes, harness and
belts, for machinery be placed on the
free list. The amendment was offered
by Stone, of Missouri. During the dis
cussion Warren of Wyoming, declared
that the leather schedule was received
from the tanners leather trust. He
insulted the senate by charging that
the tariff on hides was the result Of
trick at a conference twelve years
ago, and said it was part of the
scheme to deprive the American farm
ers of a dollar and half or two dol
lars in profit which results from the
tariff on hides.
Although the senate made much
progress during the week in consider
ing the tariff bill, the date of final
vote is as indefinite as it was a week
ago.
The possibility of sending the bill
back to the house by the first of Ju-
ly is now considered remote.

with the Wasco Warehouse & Mill
ing company for the purchase Of that
string of warehouses.
In speaking Of the crop prospects

San Francisco. June 21.-Heney
today presented a motion in court
asking that a second trial of Calhoun
be called tomorrow. The motion was
bitterly contested by the defense and
most of today's session in Judge
LAWYERS court was devoted to OPP
posing arguments by Calhoun's at
torneys. Attorney Moore accused
Judge Lawler of being biased and
that Heney was never legally ap-
pointed assistant district attorney.
He wanted time to get rulings on
these points.
When Heney made the motion
Moore addressed the court, declaring
Judge Lawler had plainly demonsrat-
ed he could not give the defendant a
fair trial. He said Heney was assist
ant attorney general of the state and
therefore could not legally accept an
appointment as assistant district at
torney. Heney replied: 81 never
have been assistant attorney general
/ was offered the position, but re-
fused because the salary would not
enable me to live in Washington"
In defense of the charges against
Judge Lawler. Heney said: "The only
purpose for making these charges
against the court is so he might. as
any man might, become angry at
their bitter insults and let fall some
remark that they might twist and
turn until 1t was made to appear the
court was prejudlced." He denied
he is employed by Spreckels. Heney
declared these charges were already
disproved.

RUMOR SPREAD THAT
HARTMAN HAD DIED

New York, June 21.-An uncon-
firmed rumor that Hartman had
died in Austria today created great
confusion in Wall street and a sharp
break in the market followed the
circulation OF the report. The di-
rectors of the Union Pacific and per-
sonal friends have not received any
word. Mr. Hartman is supposed to
be in Vienna today.
The fact that his friends have not
heard anything to make them fear
for his state of health had the effect
generally of discrediting the rumor.
1t is the growing belief the report
was circulated to affect the market.

A DREAM OF GOOD ROADS.

1t would be very fine indeed, if the
federal government should build good
roads from Washington city to every
one of the state capitals, as is proposed
by President Jackson of the National
Good Roads association now in session
at Topeka, but where is the federal
government to get the money therefor?
1t is idle to talk Of disbanding the army
and doing away with the navy in order
to use the money now expended for
sucr purposes in road construction. We
must have national security, peace and
good order to enjoy the roads we now
have. We couldn't afford to build a lot
of interstate highways for the use of a
foreign invader.
But why should the federal govern
ment build roads from the national
in the history of the nation, when peo-
pie travelled to the national capital by
stage coach, horse back or boat, the
plan would have been more practical.
Now there is little reason for making
Washington city the center of a sys-
tenn of national roads.
The modern demand for construction
of wagon roads by the federal govern
ment arises from an impression that
the United States is immensely rich
and can better than the states afford
to build highways. The federal gov

other work. Does President Jackson
think the people ought to De taxed 10
increase the federal revenue SO that
the federal government can enter upon
the business of road constructor!
Elihu Root, a profound student of gov
eminent, has recently repeated his
warning that the federal government
is in danger Of breaking down If 1T ex.'
tends its jurisdiction to functions now
performed by states and municipal
corporations. If the people in the long
run are to pay for the roads, why not
let the work be done by the local gov
eminent? Then the taxpayers can see
what they are getting for their money.
