NEW YORK, July Ill won
said Jahn Johnson this afternoon as
he paused TO show tho famous goIu
reef. while the crowd that filled the
vaudeville thoater where he made
his first public appearance since the
fight at Reno, cheerod and stamped.
II won and all can say is that IL Is
my purpose to defend my title against
all corners, and | thank you Ior this
reception.
LAS / told this audience before the
fight, believed was the better man.
l made up my mind TO fight a falr.
honest fight and 1 believe the pic
lures will show that | did. II Mr..
Jeffries had been the best man and
whipped me. would have gone to his
corner and tipped my hat 10 him and
offered him my hand. AS IL was, l
won"
Before Johnson went on the stage
he received a delegation of Dewspa-
Per men In his dressing room. They
asked him why he had sold out his
share in the moving pictures of the
fight
Well" said Johnson, you see its
llht lufb. 1ou ny btb tb0

II / had kept my interest ] would
have had 10 employ large number
Of men to look after my interests,
AS 1t was ! got $4,000 and little
bonus Of ten OF twelve thousand for
my interest.
NOW, IL l had kept my share OF the
pictures, by the time the other TWEEN
ty-fve or thirty OF us had got through
cheating one another. doubt II there
would have been that much money
left for me. So long as they were
willing to manage 1t and give me the
money l was willing to accept It,
AS fas as / am concerned l hope they
Will make a million out OF It."
Somebody asked Johnson what
blow he thought won him the fight
81 think" he answered. 'it was the
blow that closed Jeffries' right eye"
There were no riots during the day
either In the streets or at the the
ater where Johnson appeared al
though vast qualities of Johnson's
winnings went up In champagne bub-
bles at the hotel where Johnson
makes his headquarters.
The only serious disorder OF the
day occurred In small Broadway
theater where a crowd gathered to
see tho pictures taken at the ring
Bide," under the impression that they
were moving pictures. Disappointed,
the spectators demanded their money
back and when this was refused, they
wrecked the lobby and rolled the tick
ct booth with a young woman inside
into the street
Johnson appeared on the vaudeville
stage again tonight

on In Johnson's performance was that

JEFF did not get licked because he
was not physically all right There
are great many reasons that led up
to his downfall In the first place
he wouldn't listen to me nor to any
one else among his trainers. He
never boxed enough to keep himself
warm, and every Wine you would

KANSAS WHEAT HIT HARD
Special Ia The Leader.

Pond Creek, Okla Npril 2 An

conditions in the Kansas wheat belt
far worse than they ~ hcen stat
ed. In numerous he ! loss ap-
pears to be total, ana Was so esti.
mated by the owners. The ground
Is in. splendid condition and has been
all along. The loss was occasloned
by long and protraced freeze, fol
lowing a rain and sleet, resulting in
the formation of a solid sheet OF ice,
which smothered the plant These
conditions exist over a great portion
of the wheat belt. In The western
part OF the state the damage is
lighter, but il is safe TO say Kansas
will harvest the lightest wheat crop
she has produced for several years
The extreme western counties are in
good shape The hest wheat was

lion of which has been changed from
open cattle ranges to farms within

The remainder was-Oh, hush! The
oratory was of the usual brands, the
unmitigated gloom settling down OF
the Draw OF human liberty, the howl
ing hordes of taxpayers reaping the
benefits of the downfall of the stall

veloping the pale, black form OF mar
tyred freedom.
Some Wild Statements.
Cost of the present city govern
ment in Guthrie per capita as mis-
stated in the State Lapnal VIII hard-
ly mlslead people who know the size
of Guthrie. BY a remarkably absurd
system of lying the Capital figures
that the cost here Is S. per capita,
much less than in several commission
cities named. The absurd estimate
Is secured in this way: Figure that
Guthrie has 10000 population; thai
its expenses are 100000.
The real situation is that The cost
is $l50,0OO, that the population Is
less than 10000; therefore. the cost
is at least $40 per capita, and in
creasing every day.
To the regular expenses must be
added frequent judgments on unpaid
| claims. TO publish statement that
| the city government Is costing less
! than one-half what it actually cos
he taxpayer or the city. The cost
is entirely 700 high, showing the
system 10 be wastefnl and much
abused.
Il is further well known to the
Capital that Tulsa saved $1i5,O0O
the first year of commission govern
ment as compared with the las. year
under the ward system. The cost OF
the commission as shown in the
Capital Is not the cost at all, but the
system Of lying Is resOred to 10 fur
ther yicimize Guthrie taxpaye's.
The Capital knows, and most of us
know, that the city levy on The as
sessed valuation in Guthrie was we'll
nigh exhaus ed at ,he end of six
