means make necessary.

means make necessary.
I'VE submit that nothing less than
legal corporation will give that sta
bility and accountability to our order
which it should possess in order to
properly and safely attend the finan-
cial features which it has found it
necessary to adopt in the creation of
it's permanent fund. When it is borne
in mind that the object of the services
which brought us together was the
saving and preserving of the Union,
then it seems but natural that we
should ask the congress of our coun-
try to accord and grant to us the pow
ers and duties of a corporation. Such
a course ought to meet with the ap-
prevail of all our comrades and guard
engendered by the preference of one
state over the others.
Hence we recommend the incOrpo-
ration of four organizations, that the
application be made for the incorpo-
ration of this body by the Congress of
the United States at the earliest prac-
ticable opportunity; that such incor-
poration be named The Grand Army
of the Republic that the officers OF
this body be empowered to execute all
applications and papers necessary
therefor; that committee of three be
appointed by the commander in chief
at the next encampment, to take such
steps as may be necessary to bring
about such incorporation"

cret defeat of the popular will, it
would be strange if they have not
taken the last opportunity to accom-
plish their purpose by indirection be-
hind tae closed doors of the conference
committees.
Probably the bin will have passed
before the general public has any OPP
portunity to examine it, 1t is being
damned through congress so that
members themselves have little OPP
portunity to detect these tricks. The
most dangerous of them are in the
administrative and maximum and
minimum clauses, whose effect will
not be known until they begin to be
it will take a year to find all the
Jokes. but we suspect that democratic
campaign orators will make thor
ough job of it next summer.
The nature of the shoe and leather
Joker is little easier to guess at than
the others. Free hides were the most
considerable apparent concession of
the whole bill If shoemakers could
get free hides and keep all the pro-
lection they had before for shoes, they
could maintain the old price and make
a fine profit The Dingley duty was
imposed on hides of cattle This
has been interpreted not to apply to
the calfskin out Of which the
shoes with which most of us are
familiar are made. Only the soles OF
these shoes pay duty.
Now If it be true that the reduction
of the Payne Aldrich bill apply only
to manufacturers in which leather
formerly dutiable but now free is the
chief component, only coarse cow
hide boots will be effected.

The report of this committee, which
will probably be acted upon favorably,
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1909-08-09
is in part as follows


with reference to the main ques-
ton, it is evident from the action Of
the last encampment in creating a
permanent fund and carefully guard
ing the same that it is regarded as
highly necessary to make proper pro-
vision for our organization in it's de-

CONTEST STILL FADES.

The Statesman today prints another

Statesman today makes the charge
again that this copyrighted" contest
is not on the square. 1t cannot be on
the square when half the contestants"
entered We're put in without regard to
their residence. feelings or anything
else.
Those names were taken from a d-
rectory. We challenge denial of this
statement. The bulletin. trapped in it's
own snare, made the charge, deIiber-
ateIy falsifyine when 1t dfd so, that
employees of this paper sent those
names in. They did not. Not only did
they not send them in from this city,
but they did not send them in from any
other. And we doubt if there is a real
ly Interested contestant in this city. And
we doubt if this contest has brought
the bulletin as many subscriptions as it
has US. And we doubt if the manager

we doubt, but they are not all to be
doubt if that copyrighted" contest has
anything sincere or straight about it.
Names are at last beginning to dis
appear from the list. For instance. we
hardly think "Miss" Bliss Kennedy will
be kept in the race Nor do we think

No it's a great copyrighted" contest,
And they are wise in copyriehting it
so we could not use the old directory.
But they didn't copyright the present
directory and if we are patient maybe
we can use that several years from

when we do. half dozen years from

JokERS IN THE NEW. TARIFF.

1t is not very profitable to discuss
the jokers in the new tariff act with
reasonable presumption is that it is
full of them. The bill was framed
by men who wanted to do just the re-
verse of what the people directed and
the president recommended
They did this openly as far as they
dared and could; secretly by various
forms of the. traditional joker where
they feared the people. Thwarted in

START To TRAIN
Four Round Preliminary viii
Be a Very Notable
Attraction.

The go between Peterson and Sui
Ivan, scheduled for March Is at the
Orpheum, is beginning to raise some
speculation round town. This will be
the second meeting between the two
men, the last one resulting in a vic
tory for Sullivan in the fifth round on
a foul.
Peterson did not show himself as
clever as Sullivan on that occasion.
but seemed to be there with a hard
wallop. At that time the boys Were
boxing straight rules and the change
enee in the chances. Whether this will
be in Peterson s favor or otherwise,
it is hard to say, but should certainly
give him a better chance to land
those hard, swinging leads of his.
The two preliminaries will be fur
nished by the winners of the two cur
tain-raisers last Saturday night and
the two men who challenged the win
ner in each case.
Young Sharkey and Eddie Hines will
be the performers in the eight-round
60, and George Nelson and Joe Silva,
the Punehbowl Demon, will do things
for four rounds. Not that anybody
expects iS to last four rounds There
are many fans in town who may not
feel very much stirred up by the Pc
will troop to the Orpheum just the
same to see George and Joe 60 at it.
Nelson is the big marine who has
won his two bouts here in the last
month, both by the sleep route, one in
the first round and one in the second
round. Joe Silva is just the same kind
of boxer with, perhaps, more hit
ting power, but trife less clever
ness. Neither one of the lads can be
said to be clever, but they are both
very willing, and when Joe gets mad,
something happens.
Silva has way of waiting to see
what his opponent will do. This re-
suits in his getting tap on the mush,
when he Immediately gets very mad
and proceeds to rush his man with
great, circling swings. When these
tactics are tried on the marine and
he comes back in like manner, there
will be something doing that will
please any old ringsider.
The two principals in the main
event have both started training. Sui
Ivan is at Fort Shafter, where he is
working with some of the soldiers, and
frankie Smith as an occasional spar
ring partner. Peterson is at the Or
pheum, where he has Eddie Hines and
Nelson to work with him, and thai is

JACK JOHNSON
DID NOT STAY

Jack johnson, heavyweight cham
pion of the world, went away on the
Makura last evening, covered with leis
and smiles and waving a hig aloha to
the many admirers who had gathered
to see him off, He and his wife seem
ed to be having very pleasant time
of it yesterday. They drove round IN
Bob Lewis carryall, saw the sights and
did some shopping.
A rumor went all over town during
the afternoon that the Opera House
management had persuaded him to stay
oye~ for San Francisco boat and give
show here This was started on ac-
count Of his being seen on his way to
the Opera House with Mr.. Adams. But
that was all a rumor and nothing more,
for Jack was merely on his way to
the boat to show Adams bass yiol,
which was sold later.
When johnson heard about BONNIE,
the ssMoving Magician" he said he
wished he had known about him, for
he would have had the local man take
some pictures of him in action. Jack
SAYS that the fight pictures did not
come out at all well and are by no
means clear eff I had known about
Mr.. Bonnie I would have certainly
given him a nice order said Jack.
q As it is I have to wait till I reach
London to have any taken. -
When asked about the picture which
appeared in the Advertiser, in which
Burns mouth is open and the side of
jack face just shows, the latter con-
fessed that he was smiling as it APP
pears in the picture "sure I was
smiling at him; didn It I have him go
ing?"
Nothing definite is known about
what johnson will do on the Coast.
He is a very uncertain quantity and
has already put two managers to the
peeve. Lii Arthur has not SO much
swell head as one might expect. His
pretty little wife evidently holds him
down. ANY way, the Makura viii
swarm with sporting writers when he
arrives and that should please the big
fighter as much as anything.

HALEIWA RACE
ARRANGEMENTS

Two names were left out of the list
of the Haleiwa race entries by mis-
take. They are Tom and Joe Honan
who are entered with the footpads and
who both are sturdy athletes with a
mighty fine chance of having to fill
that Haleiwa cup once or twice.
N. S. Webster was slated to run but
he is going to ride bicycle. These
alterations make thirteen entries for
the wheel race and sixty-five for the
foot race, seventy-seven in all; and
that looks like lucky number.
Owing to the recent rainy weather
and the bad state of the roads, the
committee inspection trip has been
postponed for day or two. This will
probably be on Saturday Mr.. Bartlett
is unable to make the trip on that day
SO Mr.. Paul Isenberg has kindly con.
scented to fill in the breach and loan
one of his machines for the occasion.
The race has assumed much larger
proportions than were expected and
more workers have been asked to CO.
operate. Will Prestidge has been ap-
pointed committee of one to see after
the starting arrangements and he will
probably also have charge of the spe-
cial train.
1t is almost certain that there will
be a special train for the event at a
reduced rate. This cannot be said SO
for certain as yet as a special train
has to be taken from the railroad COM
pany and the tickets sold privately.
The committee is at work on this, how
ever, and it is confidently expected that
the special train will run.
Nigel Jackson states his intention of
going down to Haleiwa on the morning
train soon and running back again. This
will be part of his training and to give
the newspapers some idea of the time
in which the average runner will make
the distance.
