STOP THE FIGHTS

Now that the pie fight which
turned the eyes of the entire world
to Nevada is thing of the past
and all are more or less surprised
and disguised with the result, one

out being charged with the great
and unholy crime of knocking Reno.
As long as the present law exists
and the people can be bamboozled
into spending their money there
will be prize fights and Reno might
as we'll enjoy the luxury, if such it
can be called. With Reno it was
a simple business proposition and
one which every town and city in
the state hoped could be brought
within its confines.
While the preliminaries of the
tight were being discussed we
boosted the matter as strongly as
We could for the simple reason that
We desired to see the money which
would be spent brought into state.
The law of our state says that fight
ing is all right and as long as that
law stands we are bound to say that
it is all right too although we fully
believe sthat the state would be far
better off if the law was repealed.
There cannot be one word said
against the governor of the state in
allowing the fight to proceed for it
vas beyond his power to stop it.
The police protection that the fight
vas given was proper in all ways
for the simple reason that the
promoters had complied with the
.aw and were entitled to its pro-
lection and as long a. the law is
upon the statutes we believe that
they should be protected in their
game even if it ca lied for the
troops of the government to be
brought into the state.
1t is not the fault of the officers of
the state or of the fight prom oters
that this fight took place but wholly
the fault of the law and which by all
means should be repealed that Ne
vada might take her place and
standing among the states of the
union.
When Muldoon, the one time
wrestler, entered the arena and
made his speech to the assembled
thousands wherein he claimed that
Nevada was "the one free state of
the union" he added nothing to the
lustre of its star but tinged the
blackness of the clouds that lowered
over.
If the legislature of all the many
states of the union, with the thous-
ands of men who compose those
bodies, have studied the matter and
taken action prohibiting the car
rying on of the game, it would how
that Nevada had not given it the
study that the question called for
or was catering to that which COM
petent juries had found to be wrong.
