BLEED FOR SUCKERS.

One element In the sporting frater-
nifty has conceived. fioated. and pulled
off another of those successful coups
characteristic of the fighting game.
From their point of view it was Won
derfully successful too. The people
grabbed at the race prejudice bait
and swallowed it hook. line and sink
er. Not only that but they accented
the tremendous betting odds in favor
of the white man at face value while
sports in London and Australia made
it even money and in some instances
twisted the odds in the black mans
favor. All the time certain well known
pugilsstS and wrestlers like Corbctt
and Gotch and Farmer Burns must
have known that Jeffries did not have
chance. 70 say that they did not
realize this fact. is to give them credit
for far less ignorance than anyone
has ever done heretofore. IT is a very
good demonstration of the old saying
that a pugilist cannot get back into
shape, once he leaves the ring ror any
length of time. This lesson has been
demonstrated often enough. but peo-
pie were ripe to be bled for suck
crs and they backed their preiudice
rather than their Judgment.

HARVEST EXCURSION
RATES ARE SOUGHT
Representative of Northern Pa
cific is Asked to See If Con-
cessions are Not Possible

Special excursions for harvest
hands needed in the Yakima valley
was the subject of a conference
Thursday between Webb F. Safer,
travelling passenger agent of the
Northern Pacific railroad and w. P.
Romans, secretary of the Yakima
Valley Labor Bureau. Mr.. Romans
asked Mr.. Safer to convince the rail-
SONS to this valley at harvest time.
the return privilege to be good for a
longer period than is usual in such
concessions by the railroad company.
Mr.. Safer was afraid that the con-
cession would be the thin edge of a
wedge which Walla Walla and other
sections would all take whack at
and drive in a little further, the
wheat and other farmers asking for
conditions similar to those accorded
the Yakima ranchers. Mr.. Romans
pointed out that the concession asked
Is closely related to the freight BUSH
ness of the line. If the crop is har-
vested the railroad will haul all the
freight If it is but half harvested
there will be but half freight lie
commended, therefore, that it is to
the interest of the railroad company
70 make whatever concessions are
necessary in order to get the avail
able freight.
Mr.. Safer did not make a definite
answer but said that he would take
up the question at once with the Of
f1cials of his company who will have
the obligation of making the de-
cison.

second horse was a young how.
Dancing and Fireworks.
Dancing and fireworks were the
park attractions in the evening and
they drew very large crowds. The
fireworks. which cost something ap-
preaching $1,000 were as good dis
play as could have been expected and

valley as this.
The music at the track in the at
ternoon was furnished by the Sunny

musicians. The players were public

much interest. AS the battle pro-

UNDAUNTED BY FAILURE.

Count Zeppelin is going at it again.
Although seventy-two wears of age.
ne announces his intention of con-
tinuing his efforts to establish a sue
cessful airship service. Nothing can
daunt him. His latest great dirigible
balloon, the Deutschland, began it's
career with a performance that de-
lighted the inventor and won the APP
plause of the world. 1t made the
scheduled trip without a hitch, run
ming almost as true as a railroad
train. All seemed serene. regular
service was arranged, with passenger
rates as high as the altitude. All
Germany would soon be in the air,
and them The wind took hold OF
the Deutschland, swept 1t far from its
course, and the best that the pilot
could do was TO land his bark in a
forest. The passengers escaped in
jury, but the ship was so badly dam
aged that she will have to be dis
mantled and practically rebuilt.
With his dream shattered and his
life drawing to a close, Count Zeppe-
lin. said the dispatches, was "disap-
pointed but not discouraged" Sure
iy such a spirit is deserving of sue
cess. Zeppelin is the grand old
man among aviators, and every per-
son who admires pluck and perser-
verance hopes that he will live long
enough to launch a ship of the air
that will fulfill his expectations.
