Prize Fights and Fight Pictures.

After all, the astonishing thing about
the spread of the anti-fght picture senti-
meut throughout the country is the fact
that il should be considered astonishing
Success might have been anticipated, if
one had inclined to view the matter "a

There seems to be no disposition to toll
crate the pictures in any quarter. City
after city has pronounced against them in
the United States. and even Canada and
England are opposing them in spots, and
probably will oppose them unanimously
later along. The public was quick to
Recognize the menace in the proposed ex-
hibiton OF these motion pictures, and it

aged those people who are opposed to
prize fighting in general and who are
anxious to see it abolished Our notion
is that this country might give up prize
fighting without the shedding Of one tear
or the sensation of one regret. once it
made up its mind that way The game
IS not worth while, IN any aspect OF it, It
is in the hands of thugs and crooks; it
possesses little if any OF the elements of
real sport.
We incline, even now. TO predict that
the Reno pummeling match will be the
last this country will ever know. There
will be boxing contests. of course; but no
more prize fights of the Reno magnitude
They are barred by practically every
State in the Union now, and they ought
TO be barred by all. Not only is the late
event disgusting in the extreme in retro

haps, it is extremely silly. Does it not
make you little ashamed of yourself TO
think that you really were eXcited-if YOU
were-that two toughs were hammering
each other the other day in order TO de-
