THE FRISCO INTEREST
 N COMING BATTLE
Rush at Seat Sale for Johnson Ketchel
 Fight.

San Francisco. Oct. 12.-Seats for the championship match. at the Mis- sion street arena next Saturday be- tween Jack Johnson and Stanley Ketchel were placed on sale this morning and long line of fight fans was present to get their choice places. From the way the sale began it is be- lived the standing room only sign will be hung out before the gong sounds for the first preliminary next Saturday.
 With the exception of work tomor- row afternoon for the moving picture men. both fighters will quit strenuous training and from now on will take only exercise necessary to- keep them in perfect trim. elt
 Ketchel weighs 175 pounds. and his trainers claim not an ounce of 1t is superfluous. Both men seem to have realized the importance of the match. and neither omitted anything tending to put him in the best condition possi- ble for the fierce battle. Johnson re- duced his weight by twelve pounds or more and will weigh in at 197 pounds. the weight at which he fought Tommy Burns in Australia. Neither man expects the bout to go the limit and both are counting on an early knockout. The betting re- mains at odds of 10 to I.

The Trouble Which is Grow
 ing Worse Began Sixteen Years Ago When the Un-
 ion Pacific Went Into the ? Hands of a Receiver.

Portland, Ore. Oct. 13.-Five busi- ness men of this city testified before the Interstate Commerce commission today that twenty years ago Portland jobbers were able to sell goods as far east as Pocatello. Idaho, and that year by year they have seen parts of that distributive territory Topped off by unfavorable rates. until today sPortland's wholesale area is but a fraction of it's previous extent.
 They testified that barrier had been arbitrarily erected at the oregon boundary line. past which they must not g. and that in some of the ter ritory remaining they are compelled to absorb a part of the freight charges in order to meet competition from the east.
 Henry Hahn. for several years at the head of the transportation com mittee of the Portland chamber of commerce.. went at great length into the history of rate making in the Pacific northwest He said Portland never-had any trouble with rates to interior points until sixteen years ago. just after the Union Pacific rail- road went into the hands of a re- ceiyer- Suddenly war was declared and distributive rates from Portland cast were readjusted. Idaho was walled off, and other parts of it's territory redistricted in such man. .ner as to handicap a portion of the iobbers.
 All of P1,tland's witnesses declared that eastern made goods now meet them on an even footing as far west as Boise. Idaho. Baker City. Ore, and Spokane. Wash.
 { This afternoon the railroads began the presentation of their case. w. W. .COtter chief counsel for the railroads. prefaced the introduction of testi- nlony by stating that his railroad intended to prove that it is earning only reasonable profit, on the amount of capital investS He de- clared, assuming that business got back to normal conditions this year as he expected it to do. and in view of the prospective reductions of freight rates, the net earnings of the railroad for the year would be about s$4. .00O.O or less than ' per cent on the investment of capital and under per cent of the present valuation |. Counsel then introduced as his first witness J. B. Pope. a civil en- gineer of San Francisco. Pope tes- ,tified- that the figures prepared by him showed that the original cost of the road was s63.O0O.OOO. and at pres ent he estimated that it would cost about sss,00O, 900 to rebuild it.

hear much the governor said. but the bulk of the throng accepted the ap- plause of those nearer the platform as an endorsement and cheered too.
 The governor said: Fellow Citi- zens: It is my pleasant duty and perogative in your name and place to welcome the president and his party. and I express your grateful pleasure that the president has paid us this visit. In common with all the loyal sons and daughters of the republic, the people of Arizona hold in right and due respect the high office of the president and, more than that. they entertain a personal regard for him, whose careful public service, ability and character inspire our confidence and enlarge our pride in America and American institutions.

THE PROMISE OF STATEHOOD
So Far as 1t Is in the Power of the
 President to Give 1t.


 The appearance for MT. Taft was the signal for the outburst of the day That smile prolonged it, but. though the smile did not vanish, the desire of the people to hear him overcame the inclination to prolong the uproar and the president was permitted to say:

RECEPTION OF THE SPEECH.

The speech had brought statehood much nearer Sso that the cheer which followed to conclusion of the speech was for Taft and Statehood and was therefore of greater volume. Even Ok lahoma democrats. after they came to think of it admitted that the allusion to the Oklahoma constitution was not subject to the criticism which they were at first inclined to bestow when they interpreted, the presidents utter ances to be yelled threat that the statehood bill would be so drawn as to give the president the last word in the matter of a constitution. He had said, they agreed. and had hinted at no

DR.. A. D. BARRETT,
Rockport's Inventive Dentist.

The Rockland Courier Gazette has pub
lished an interesting sketch of DIR. Addi-
son D. Barrett, a dentist, now residing
in Rockport, who has to his credit three
hundred inventions, ranging from an auto
He was born in Rockport, April 6, 1912,
Barrett. He received what education the
district schools and his limited time af-
forded. He was working in the boat
building department of the CharIestown
navy yard when the Civil War broke out.
He enlisted in January, 1862, as cor
poral in Co. F, LIST regiment of Washing
ton, D. c., Cavalry. He had served near
ly two years, when he was the victim of
an accident which nearly terminated his
career. He volunteered to ride refrac-
tory horse, being noted for his horseman-
ship, but the horse became frightened and
Corporal Barrett, taken by surprise, was
unseated and as the result of the accident
was reduced to physical wreck. After
passing through five hospitals he received
an honorable discharge at Rockland in
1865. Later he engaged in business in
East Boston and Cambridge, and after a
trip to St. Louis began the practice of
dentistry in Portsmouth, Va, having
graduated from the Baltimore College of
Dental Surgery. His next move was to
Norfolk, where he established very
lucrative practice. Fever and ague sent
him to Rockport, Me-, on an enforced
vacation and he returned to Norfolk to
find that most of his savings had vanish
ed in bank failure. He was regaining
his feet, cheerful in spite Of his continued
adversely, when the building containing
his Office was torn down to make way for
modern structure, and he lost the only
available location the desirable part Of
the city then offered. During this time
he was working on his many inventions,
but lack of capital to place them on the
market has handicapped him. Through
all his experiences, with disappointment,
accident and sickness as the punctuation
marks, he has emerged kindly old man,
possessed of the same abiding faith that
his genius will yet reap its reward. The
Barrett family is one Of the oldest and
best known in Knox county. The sur
vivors of Charles Barrett are Dr. Addi-
son R., with whom this article has dealt;
George H. M. Barrett, a we'll known
Rockport attorney; Edward Barrett, for
