JOHNSON TO Be.
A PROMOTER

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
CHICAGO, Dec. SACK John
son shortly will become pro-
moter of real, simon-pure" box
ing contests unless plans which
the dusky champion now is fos-
tering go awry. Johnson has the
object of reviving the boxing
game in Chicago at heart. His
scheme is to form a bona fide box
ing and wrestling club with a
nominal membership fee and to
give contests at which members
only will be admitted.
II don't believe the law is
against such scheme" said
Johnson today. AT any rate, |
am going to try it out. l want
the people of Chicago to be able
to see real fight at fair price,
and l think that the boxing game
will be re-established here on a
clean basis"

Who ARE ENGINEERS?

they pillow the space and bear the
worlds business and the worlds
people to their destinations.
Lay off the engineers for a
week and Tacoma would begin to
go hungry.
There would not be "a steak in
the butcher shop, nor can of
beans in the grocery.
People sometimes point to the
engineer and say "he gets good
pay"
Does he?
What is it worth to sit in the
cab of an engine peering out along
the shining steel, to be compelled
to sit there some day and see that
monster grind a little child UNI
der the wheels. How much would
you take to be the engineer than
has to pull up that train and go
back and help drag the bloody
wreck of innocence from the brake
beams where it has stuck?
What Is II Worth?
How much is it worth to sit
in the cab and see the engine
bearing rown on an old man too
deaf to hear and be powerless 70
stop those drive wheels until too
late. Do you think You would
ever lose the vision Of that face
as it turned in terror just as the
engine struck?
The railway men the ether day
in discussing a trespasS law, de-
clared one man a month is killed
between here and Seattle, and
when the double track is done
from here to Portland it was said
that one day would not be II
large estimate.
And every time one of these
lives goes out it leaves q memory
for some engineer that begins to
get on his nerves.
Who are these engineers
They are the body of men that
carry the banner in the labor
parade declaring they are total alb
stainers.
And it is these men, the kind
the world needs, that do the dying
when the wrecks come; that leave
widows and the orphan children.
.There'll be a reason if these
locomotive engineers go on a
strike.

CAR FRANCHISE
BY United Press Leased Wire.

SEATTLE, Dec. 3.-Yielding
to the demands of angry resi-
dents, the city council committee
on corporations has rented one of
the biggest halls in the city for
this evening to hear reasons
why the franchise of the Seattle,
Renton e Southern electric road
should be taken from it's present
owners and the line operated by
the city.
A riot ensued Monday when
the company started throwing
passengers, who refused to pay
the overcharge, off its cars. The
people charge that the company
has broken its franchise contract
with the city by charging more
than five cents and by refusing
to sell Communication tickets.
Mayor Gill and a number Of
councilmen are siding with the
people.
