ster Exhibition of Cars

the Licensed Automobile Dealers association

regular meeting, held at the association
meeting place, with Ralph c. Hamlin

posal to have a show being met with unlim-
tied expressions Of approval.
The method Of advertising to be pursued by
the association was discussed in full and The
Herald named as one of the mediums of pub
licity for the affairs of the association.
H. o. Harrison, who represents the Peer
less, Selden and Everitt cars, and the W.
D. Howard Motor Car company announced
that they would have their cars in the big
show and would not make appearance at
any other show in the city, which assurance
was received with general satisfaction by all
of the members of the organization All ar
rangements in a preliminary way were made
for the biggest show the automobile dealers
have ever given in this section of the coun-
try and the several committees appointed to
aggressively prosecute the work necessary to
make it the most pronounced success of the
kind ever seen west OF Chicago.

details OF all appertaining to the affair.

AUTOlsTS PROTEST AT
PROPOSED LEGISLATION
San Mateo Plan to Give Half of Fine
Money to lnformer Is
Decried

H. M. owens, president of the San
Francisco Motor club, has taken up
the proposition of the officials of San
Mateo county who are considering an
ordinance to prevent speeding of autos.
The ordinance proposes to give half of
the fine to those who inform on the
speeders. Owens has written to j. j.
Bullock, district attorney of San Ma
teo county on the subject, and will be
in attendance at the next meeting OF
the board of supervisors to protest
against the passing of the ordinance.
This is the ridiculous ordinance, the
conditions of which give to an inform
er half of the fine imposed upon an al
legged offender. AS a general rule an
informer. is a cultivated liar, whose
word is totally and absolutely without
credit, and the passage of such an
ordinance would be to revert to the
time of the informer and of the Cove
nanters. Such law even In an OBJ
scure county of California would be a
disgrace to the state.

Jones said yesterday that he had
grown weary of the lax business meth
DDS of Hester, and did not propose to
be jollied along any further. He holds
that if Hester can get a certified check
he also can get the cash, and that If he
is acting in good faith about the match
he will not hesitate about putting up
the CASH in the hands of a reputable
stakeholder. 1t is on this point that
Jones is insisting-that cash, instead of
checks, shall be posted as the club
guarantee that the fight will be held.
He has telegraphed Hester severa!
times since receiving the articles OF
agreement and the promoter has 1g-
nored them all. 1t does not spell good
faith to Jones, and he will have no more
of it. Hester must post the club forfeit
in cash with John Clark, and do 1t
quickly, or the negotiations will be
terminated by Jones. He Is of the opln-
ion that Nelson is at the bottom of 1t
all and does not want to fight Wolgast.
I6this is the case, Jones says he wants
to know it before he goes to- the ex-
pense of training.
The biggest consideration to Wolgast
and Jones in this fight will be the
chance to win the lightweight crown.
Wolgast Is supremely confident of his
ability to whip Nelson, as is Jones, ana
the pair are almost willing to f1ght Tor

nothing just to get a chance at the title,
but Wolgast can get $4,000 for his end
of the purse in Los Angeles and does
not porpose to run away from it to take
nothing or worse at Frisco.
While willing that Nelson shall re-
ceive $4,000 for his end, Jones insistsi
that Wolgast shall get the money that
he has agreed to fight for, and since he
is taking the worst of the division of
the purse he naturally wants to min
imize the~chances of losing that small
sum. In other words, if he has to
fight for nothing to get chance at the
title he wants to know it In advance.
Wolgast and Jones are disgusted with
the methods of Hester, and it need not
surprise anybody If they call off nego-
tiations at noon today. Wolgast made
$4,000 in two fights here since he came
back. from New Orleans. and can
knock out about $4,000 a month fighting
for McCarey. So he Is not losing any
thing by throwing up the match with
Nelson If Hester fails to make good IN
a businesslike manner. Another match
between Wolgast and Memsic would fill
Maud pavilion, and there are several
good lightweights hanging around for
a chance at the Dutchman. Ad would
run little risk in fighting them, and
would pick up about $4,000 ahead for his
trouble, For these reasons he is In
clined to feel a bit independent in the
matter of negotiating with Hester.

Curly O'Connell is afflicted with symptoms of

Industrious stunts on the road and in the gym.

that he is most willing to let Rogers fight Kid

training for the scrap with Nelson, If Sid
Hester ever succeeds in getting both fight

Jack Brennan will go to the springs while the
fighting party is there and several other Los

John L. Herget, formerly known Young
Mitchell now head of the Frisco police COM
mittee of the board of supervisors, wants to
aid in amending the ordinance relating to
boxing so that the Jeffres-Johnson scrap can
be held In the city, but he will oppose grant
ing a permit to Tex Rickard any other
outsider. He thinks the home folk have first

up there who deserves commendation and ap-
plause.
Jockey George Mountain, well known In Los
Angeles, has been granted a Jockey license
by the Southern Jockey club but will be re-
stricted to mounts for his contract employer,
w H. Fizer. The latter is one Of the owners
of he Tampa Bay racing plant and it was due
to his influence that Mountain gets back into
the game. George was one of the truly great
Jockeys of a few years ago and his near
banishmcnt from the sport was the result of
personal Ill will of a certain prominent turf
man.
1t is difficult to understand the motive that
is behind all this unfair rousting of the
Juarez race meeting. Matt j. Winn, John G..
Follansbee, Lyman Davis. w. II. Shelly, e.
w. McKenna, Price Mckinney and former
Governor Terrazas of Chihuahua are the men
who arc back of the Jockey Club Juarez.
Winn. Follansbee and Davis have long and
honorable career on the turf that should alb
solve them from any inclusion in slurs that
reflect not only upon them as men, but as
racing officials McKenna is vice president of
the Chicago. Milwaukee & st. Paul railway
and his record is good enough for comparison
with the average business man, beyond doubt.
Prince Mckinney is a multimlllionaire manu-
facturer and banker of Cleveland, and so far
is known has lived honoraby and rendered
unto every man his just due Governor Ter
razas is the wealthiest citizen Of Mexico, an
octogenarian and a thoroughbred sportsman.
He, too, is far too wealthy to have to stoop
to preying upon that element which patronizos
the Juarez race meeting. All these men are
good sportsmen, proved SO, and are making d
game uphill fight against great odds to estab-
lish the sport of kings in Mexico. They de
serve commendation instead of abuse, especially
since the sport at Juarez more nearly deserves
the classification as a sport than many other
race meetings that have been held in the last
twelve months. 1t never will develop into a
crap game with such men these promoting
1t, and there never will be any complaint re-
garding the integrity of the sport as long as
they conduct it.
