Some great excuses are advanced
by those desiring TO annex with
Portland. Some claim we are pay.
ing the city officials more than we
should; some say the engineering
and police departments are carrying
more employees than necessary
some find fault with the acts OF
council; some say that streets in
front of their properties are not be-
ing improved as fast as they desire
some are unable to Secure political
positions; all say they are paying
too mitch for water, and other ex-
cuses too numerous to mention. The
only real reasons advanced are per
sonal ones Spite aud pique are
the predominating features. The
welfare of St. Johns is lost sight of
in the endcavor TO get even with
the "other fellow" In nearly
every instance il is a case of cutting
OIL the nose to spite the face. Had
our forcfathers lacked the same
amount of backbone" the Revo-
lutionary War would never have
been. They would have been afraid
of attempting TO govern themselves.
They fought against taxation with.
out representation, but the weak
kneed annexationist offers freely to
give up his independence and be
taxed without representation. Brace
up aud be men with red blood in
your veins. Don't be guilty of an
act that would bring blush of
shame TO the face of your forcfath-
ers. They stood for independence
aud self government and fought for
IL. Yet you are proud Of them be.
cause they have done this. They
had as much reason for desiring TO
be governed by England as you
have TO be governed by Portland,
aud there were men then weak
enough to desire this condition to
remain. Are you proud OF them
You should be because you are Ia
the same class. II conditions here
do not suit you, why not try to
better them yourself instead OF ask
ing another city to do it for you ?
II YOU have a majority of the
voters, as You claim, why not use
them in femedying any evil that
might exist. Their power would
be unlimited. They could elect
their own officials and take action
on anything you might want bet |
tered. Don't kill a thriving city I,
TO get even with an individual. /

BOXING

New York, July 13.-Ted Nelson, the. Australian weIterweight, made a favorable impression in his first bout before an American audience, when he knocked out Jack Clifford in the sixth round of their scheduled ten round mill at the Fairmount A. C. last night. Clifford was touted by Middleweight Champion Stanley Ketchel as world-beater, but failed to live up to all the good things said of him. He lacked great deal against Nelson last night. He was wild and failed to land more than two or three clean blows. One of these cut Nelson's left eye in the second round. In the third Clifford opened the wound with a right hook, and the claret flowed for a while.
 The knockout blow came early in the sixth session. Nelson started by putting light left to wind and then a right to the jaw. In a mix-up Nell son shot over a left hook to the jaw and followed 1t with a crushing right handler to the point of the chin, and Clifford went down for the count.
 Nelson had matters his own way from the start. Every round was in his favor. He displayed his clever ness by repeatedly side-stepping Cliff ford's rushes and landing effective blows at the same time.

WATSON WASHBURN LOOMS LARGE ON
 TENNIS HORIZON

Bridgeport has a coming tennis champion in 16 year old Watson Wash burn who, yesterday, defeated Harry Mallenhauer, president of the Kings County Tennis club, at singles at the annual tournament of the Brooklawn Country club. At the time Washburn and Mallenhauer went on there were matches in two other courts, but the work of these two drew the biggest galleries. Washburn won out GA and 6-2. Without a doubt Washburn is the best tennis player at the Brook lawn Club, if not the best in the city.
 In the afternoon Gregory Bryan met Frederick Anderson of New York, who has already won the Brooklawn cup on two occasions. The New Yorker was an easy winner. Sam Haw1ey fell before Edgar Leo of New York, though the former put up an excellent game
 Frank Washburn, brother of Watson, put away F. Alexander, but in the second round was put down by Leo.
 The continuation of the singles were started again this morning while at the same time the competition for the consolation prizes among those who fell yesterday was started Doubles are scheduled to start this afternoon.

CITY LEAGUE MAKES RULES
 FOR PLAYERS

A constitution and set of bylaws were adopted by the directors of the new City League at a meeting held, last evening, at the City Hall. As in leagues of this sort considerable trou- ble is plays met with in registering players. The directors intend to over come this trouble and have decided that man can play with any club, but after he has played once with a club he is considered as a member of that team and cannot play with any other team in the league without the unanimous consent of the league di- rectors.
 Angus Nicholson and John Went were appointed as scorers to alter nate at the two fields, St. Joseph Oval and Yost Field. The games assigned for Sunday were St. Joseph's vs. Yosts at St. Joseph Oval and South Ends vs. North Ends at Yost Field. Both will be battles for position, as the Yosts and Joes are tied for the league leadership with two wins apiece, and no defeats, while the North Ends and South Ends are the trailers.

SAUCY SENATOR'S SLIP TWO
 DEFEATS OVER ON THE MECH.

out to McKenna and Miller scored on the out. The few other hits were well scattered. Kustus made his double in the seventh. after one hand was out. and was left.
 Hartford won the game in the first inning. Soffel began operations with a. long hit. Metzger bunted, the play was made on Soffel. but they did not get him. Hart bunted and the play was made on Metzger, but 1t was un- availing. With all the hassocks oc- cupied, Goede famed, but Rehg hit McKenna grounded out. but Wadleigh placed a nice one in left, sending Hart and Rehg in.
 With two disposed of in the third, Rehg hit to deep center. He was caught at third, but Miller dropped the Kenna hit to Clunn. who threw poor ly to first and Rehg scored.
 The final tallies came in the seventh. Hart singled and Goedes fly was dropped by Nallin. Rehg's single scored Hart. McKenna struck out. nailed at the pan. Rehg moved to third and when Wadleigh started for second to draw a throw, Rehg got such a good start that no effort was made to get him at the plate.
 After brief intermission. the second SdIll0 was SldIlSu I UT llNO iliilISSs Bridgeport did not get a man on first base. In the sixth. Hall walked, Kocher hit to Soffel. who had an easv double play, but the ball bounded on his jaw and he took the count. When he went down he said that all he re- membered was that he had double play and that he thought he heard some one say, Don't hit him, Jack. '" He imagined he was Jeffries at Reno. The first thing he heard was O'Brten's s voice. The pitcher, in his street clothes. looking like a doctor, hurried over with a pail of water and the un1- said his jaw was so sore that he could not chew his short steak, he swallowed 1t like a bull pup. This blow will go into the records as knockout.
 With first and second occupied and none out Gibbs tried to bun, but lift ed little one to Hoernle. Red caught a fly off tn ebat of Kustus and Metz ger made fine running catch of Nal lin's foul. Crooks got on in the sev- enth on a poor heave by Soffel. but the next two batsmen forced runners at second and Miller fouled to the catch CT. With two out in the eighth, Gibbs was safe on a wide throw by MetZger, but the next man was an easy victim. Swanson made a poor throw in the ninth and gave a base on balls. but no Bridgeport man got as far as third base, making a great record for the big pitcher.

swanson Shuts Speed Boys Out Without a E:t in the Second Still the LeacarS--StOwe Shines in Fielding--Ladd Makes a Great One-Handed Stab

The league leaders never did care much for double-headers. Yesterday in a twin bill up Hartford way, the Speed Boys allowed themselves to be trimmed twice by the Senators. who needed the games badly just now. as they have been going along like tail enders. The double dose however did not affect our standing in the league, though Waterbury won from Holyoke One of the games will go down as a record. as Ivor Swanson. the big Norseman, let the Mechanics down without a hit or run in the nightcap. The Hartford Courant says in part of the two pieces of mush:
 Some disappointment was expressed last evening because a morning game was not scheduled with Bridgeport yesterday. for the Hartford team needs all the games 1t can get and the local athletes are playing a game now that would make some of the major league teams look foolish. Darby OBrien had the league leaders eating out of his hand in the first game, and in the second Ivor Swanson had them d1- vorced entirely from hit-making abil- ity, the big pitcher securing the first no-hit game of the season in this league.
 Both Hartford pitchers greatly ex- celled the men opposed to them. O'Brien had his damp delivery work ing finely and Bridgeport could do nothing with Swanson's knuckle ball.
 Berry Wall McCann. in a lavender shirt creation, occupied a prominent place on the bench in the first game and. at the getaway, the Bridgeports showed quite a fighting spirit.
 In the second game Hi Ladd made a great catch with one flipper of a drive from Gus Soffels bat, and the ovation that the old man received when he came in was like the descrip- tion of the greeting given to Jack Johnson when he landed in New York. Octogenarians like Hi Ladd and Jerry Connell always get a good hand from the Hartford fans.
 The first game started promptly on time and the first two men flew out to McKenna. Then Crooks hit the ball SO hard that it crashed into the fence in right field. Red picked the ball out of the boards. going after it as if he was hunting birds nests. and held Crooks on third. Ladd hit to OBrien. who made a low throw to first and Ladd was safe while Crooks scored. Bridgeport's other tally came in the fourth Miller drew pass and went to third on Halls hit. Kocher flew
