WE'D, JAN. 26, 1910.

The first show of strength be-
tween the adherents and oppo-
nents of the county unit bill, in
the State Senate was evidenced
last. week when that measure
was referred to the Committee on
Religion and Morals. 1t is
charged by the supporters of the
bill that it will be so managed
by the Committee that its death
is certain. Whether or not this
charge is true remains to be seen,
but, if so, no one who favors a
fair, square deal can endorse
such methods. 1t is a measure
that ought to be disposed of on
its merits and not defeated or
advanced by schemes and tactics
that stifle honest action and sober
judgment. We do not believe in
unfair methods in legislation no
more than in private business.
There is scarcely a doubt but a.
large majority of the people of
this state expect and demand the
passage of some measure Of this
kind, that the prohibition senti-
ment was strong factor in
electing large majority of the
members of the Legislature can
hardly be doubted. In this SEN
atorial district it was the over
shadowing issue and it is graft
flying to know that our Senator
is as true as steel to his trust.
Thesplain duty of the Legisla-
ture is to carry out the will of
the great majority of the people
and to do it in an open, even
handed way. If this bill fails to
meet the approval of any repre-
sentative, if there are those who
are willing to disregard the de-
mands of the people they ought
to uncover and fight it on the
floor so their position may be
known. To kill any measure by
an unfavorable committee is but
cowardly act. Those response
BILE for defeating such legislation
will undoubtedly be held to &C
count for a betrayal of a trust
and sooner or later public senti-
ment will bring the legislation
demanded. We have never been
identified with the Prohibitionists
as a party, have never accepted
nor advocated the extreme posi-
ton of legislating the whisky in
dustry out of existence, but be-
lieve that the people should have
the legal right to control and to
vote it out if they so desire and
no efforts to withhold the ex-
ercise of such power by any set
of men can be justified. We
favor the county unit bill because
we believe it right, that the voice
of the people should be heard
and obeyed as expressed by the
majority. We favor temperance
because it is best for every indi-
vidual and for every community.

WAGER LAID THAT BIG FIGHT WILL
 NOT TAKE PLACE
Choice of Rickard is Not Considered a
 Satisfactory Some Comments :.

willingness to accept Rickard as Judge of the bout has provided new material for conjecture. Rickard has never refereed a big fight and is a novice as to ring rules. He is re- garded generally as square sport, . but that doesn't guarantee a level headed enforcement of the Queens berry code, it is argued.
 It is a noteworthy fact that during the wrangle over the referee question on Monday the rival factions did not include Charley White of this city in the list of eligibles and for that req son it is thought that White, indorsed by Stakeholder T. D. Sullivan and a large majority of Eastern sporting men. may be appointed at the last moment. It is thought that Rickard may have been agreed upon as a pre- liminary to the appointment of White quell the clamor on the Coast in favor of the selection of native son." But it is the general belief that con- fidence in the honesty of the mill would be doubly increased if White should be named openly without fur ther delay. No heavyweight cham pionship battle in the history of the ring has occasioned so much un- necessary wrangling as this Jeffries- Johnson affair. Whether the squab- bling is due to desire to secure un- limited free advertising or not is something that cannot be answered here, but the assertion cannot be de- nied that if the promoters and fight CTS had been disposed to act squarely every detail of the fight could have been satisfactorily arranged when articles of agreement were signed in Hoboken last December.

If you had begun boxing few years ago you would have made bet ter boxer than a Speaker. and you are certainly some Speaker" led out Nell son.
 ''Now, that's what I call a pretty nice compliment" said Cannon.
 The Speaker shook both Nelson's hands, felt his biceps and shoulders and slapped him on the back The examination was freley returned by Nelson. who carefully ran his hands over the somewhat gaunt frame of Speaker Cannon.
 Say" said Nelson as he ran his fingers up and down the Speakers arms and looked him over from head to foot. T heard you were a big man, but you're only a little feller.''
 After the informalities of the unique introduction were over the Speaker stepped into his private office and emerged with a box of cigars. which he opened and proffered to Nelson.
 "No, thanks said Nelson. "I never smoked a cigar or took a drink of li- quOr in my life.''
 'I wish I could say that" frankly acknowledge the Speaker.
 Nelson was at the Capitol to appear before committee in opposition to bill introduced by Representative ton of moving pictures of prize fights and transmission of descriptions of prize fights by wire.
 This boxing game is not immoral Nelson told the committee. That's a lot more than can be said for most of these moving picture shows around the country. Don't let anybody fool you about this fighting business. Why, Nevada is the only State in the Un- ion where you can pull off a real fight. Everywhere else they are boxing con- tests. and boxing is the manifest of sports There might be dozen fa- talities in the history of the prize ring, which is about the number they have every year in football"

The New York Sun says:

The New York Sun says:
 Three months ago a prominent sporting man in this city wagered
 s1,500 against $6,O0O with another follower of pugilism that the Jeffries- Johnson fight would not take place on July 4. On Monday night at a doubled the wager and after the money had been posted in the hands of stakeholder a long discussion of the proposed battle on the Coast en- sued. The man who will take down $12,000 if there is no fight on July 4 said he was banking on several ob- sta acleS that might be thrown in the way.
 ''In the first place." he explained, 'it may rain cats, dogs and pitch fcrks on the day fixed for the mill. A poStponement would be necessary, perhaps, because of the unfavorable conditions for the taking of moving pictures, which mean probably half million dollars for the promoters and fighters.
 "In the second place the reformers may get so busy that the promoters at the last minute may have to take the fight out of California to Nevada and the building of an arena at Gold field or Reno would require a week or ten days. Then again there may be a falling out over the referee ques- tion and either Jeffries or Johnson may declare everything off. It's also possible that one of the fighters may be taken seriously ill or die. An earthquake too may upset the plans. I've got all these chances to win my bet, which seems like a good invest ment when I can get to 1.''
 Meanwhile the selection of Tex Rickard as referee, even if only tenn porary, is causing renewed criticism. At long range many sporting men say they do not relish the idea of the leading promoter acting as the third man in the ring and will not feel F ositive that everything is above board until a substitute for Rickard has been named. If it is true that Rickard will finally appoint Eddie Graney to referee local sporting men believe there will be no fight inas- much as Jeffries is unalterably op- posed to Granev. Richards relations with Johnson ever since the fight was first discussed would seem to indicate that in agreeing upon him as the referee the negro possibly knows under the surface. If Richards offer had not been accept able to Jeffries it is a we'll known fact that Johnson would not have signed articles of agreement. Jeffries is we'll aware of this fact SD that Rergar,s
