LAST GREAT FIGHT
(The Commoner.)

Governor Gillett and the people of
California are to be congratulated up
on the fact that the Governor drove
the Johnson-Jeffries prize fight out
Of San Francisco.
This was one Of the notable in
stances in history wnere pubic sen
timent so crystallizeG itself as to be.
come effective in a matter involving
thousands of dollars to many individ-
uals, as well as the opportunity for
sorcalled sport to many additional
thousands.
If we are to make real progress in
the education of children we must
sooner or later drop prize-fghts from
the list of our practices. If we are to
make genuine progress IN the effort
to perpetpute peace between nations,
We must make some progress in the
effort to maintain peace between IN
dividuals.
1t is not difficult to understand why
men become worked up over a prize
fight. Such contests stir the worst pas.
sions in men and are even more harm
full to the by-standers ana to the read
ing public than they are to the prin-
cipals in the fight.
There is nothing admirable about
these great bruisers VINO go through
a process of training to mt themselves
for the giving and receiving of severe
blows in order that they may win a
few thousand dollars. The work they
are engaged in was badly named when
it was called the manly art"
The fight will be held IN the state of
Nevada. The public sentiment that
drove the contest from California was
not sufficiently strong to prevent it's
taking place in Nevada. 1t is, how
ever, safe to say that this is the last
great prizefight that will take place on
American soil. The intelligence of
America has set itself squarely
against this sort of sport" Many of
those who object to it find interest In
reading of the encounter. Indeed, the
story of such a fight is attractive to
most men, as the fight itself would be
interesting to majority; and for this
very reason it should De abandoned.
Time is too precious for men who are
seeking real Advancement to waste it
in giving attention to a pastime that
must be deteriorating to everyone
who witnesses it or, in at least some
degree, to everyone VINO reads of it.
Neither the black bruiser nor the
burly white is made of the stun of
which real heroes are construed; and
neither is entitled to the respectful
consideration of the lovers of real
manhood.

Water Cars Break Loose of
Train Near Angel.

Two water cars got away from
the local crew at Angel Wednes-
day afternoon and but for the
fact that it was in the daytime
there would have been consider
able damage and probable loss
of life. Asit was, Engineer Took
er, on engine 984, going west,
saw them coming just after pass
ing Hibbard and succeeded in get
ting his train stopped and had a
good start backing up when the
water cars hit them. Luckily
there was no other damage than
the breaking up of the two cars
and some damage to the front
end of the engine. Engineer Took
er and Fireman Savage, however
were not injured. The engine was
brought back to Winslow for
repairs.

Telepones for Dispatching to
be Used on Entire Santa
Fe Coast Lines.

Information recently given out
by the Santa Fe officials indicates
that the entire Coast Lines por-
tion ofthis system will be equipp-
ed with telephones for the pur-
pose of dispatching trains within
the next two months.
Telephones on the Coast Lines,
were installed on the Valley Di-
vision between Bakersfield and
San Franclso. Other portions OF
the road have since been equipp-
ed and at present that part OF
the Albuquerque Division from
Winslow to Albuquerque is be-
ing handled by telephone. The
wire is strung over the third dis
trict, from Seligman to Winslow
but the telephones are not yet
installed in all of the offices on
that district. The work is being
hurried, however, and as soon
as the connections are made the
trains on the Albuquerque Divi-
sion will be handled by phone,
1t is claimed by officials of the
road that the telephone materi-
ally decreases the delay in hand
ling trains and at the same time
makes it easier for the dispatcher.

Sweet Wild Flowers

A little bunch of wild flowers,
Fresh with morning dew,
Gathered before the heavy showers
Had hidden them from view.
Two nimble feet sped along
With skirts uplifted high,
Joining the birds in their song
AS swiftly she passed by.
She gathered the flowers to cheer me
AS lay upon my cot
Sick, alone and weary.
Praying to my God.
Sweet wild flowers, love you,
Fresh with the morning dew.
Dear, kind hands bless you
For bringing them to view.
