oath, the foundation on which the
right administration of law rests.
Our Fathers saw this and pro-
vided that no lawyer should be adj
mtted to the bar, until he was oath
bound to support the Constitution.
Should Legislative body pass stat
ute contrary to the Constitution,
all lawyers and judicial bodies are
sworn to disregard the statute and
regard the Constitution. The ex-
act opposite is the common practice
today. But recently, a lawyer, as
reporter in Our paper. plead before
judicial BODY, whose judgment
and verdict is oath bound to be
careful about exercising arbitrary
power. and that III reference to
granting a license to permit a
known evil. That lawv was TN
der oath to support the Constitution
in his pleading: and he knew that
the judicial body was under oath to
support the Constitution in their
verdict. Under such circumstances
for lawyer to talk about the deCi-
sion being arbitrary needs no
comment.
Such administration. wherever
practiced, will place right on the
scaffold and wrong on the throne.
My purpose is to plead for the en-
thronement of right and the de-
thronement of wrong. Then, and
not till then, will we be able to
solve our problems.
As citizens of a municipality
we have placed Our homes, proper
tv, happiness and lives in the
hands of municipal government,
for protection. In turn for this
protection, we covenant with off,
GERS to remunerate them for their
service, and i'll accepting the trust,
they covenant with us that they
will render this service of protection
in harmony with the principles of
the fundamental law of our nation
and state. This covenant. Oh their
part, they bind with solemn oath
and call upon God to witness the
same.
In place of receiving this desired
protection, we see men : passions
cultivated by municipal sufferance.
Daughters, for whom mothers are
praving, for whom Christ died, and
for whom His servants are pleading
for them to leave the path of sin and
shame, are made to be little less,
if any than white slaves. Do YOU
say of their choice:,' Be careful

in ours today, then every lover of
the home should consider the ques-
ton serious one. Sad as it
is to see some loved mother 5
daughter throw her life, beautiful,
to the winds and waves of the rag
ing sea of passion; yet sadder grows
the picture to see our municipality,
oath bound to protect the morals of
our people. disregard the sacred
ness of marriage VOWS. and the
binding force of official oaths, and
provide red light district, the
great enemy to all purity, the foe
to the home and the despoiler of
the youth, and give to the same
police protection, and this for rev
enue.
Our innocent homes have been
placed in the hands of oath bound
officers. men who have said, So
help ME God, we will protect the
homes according to the principles
of the Constitution, and now we
are told that it seems best and wise
to them to establish, by police suf
ference, the greatest danger known
to the home. Do not think, good
people, that | am over anxious con-
corning the character of a drunk

The sin is the same in character.
But am anxious concerning the
lightness with which oaths are re-
garded. Let this disregard for an
oath continue, and homes, and
government, alike, will fall.
Where will be the security of our
rights, for which our Fathers, of
whom many of their SONS are in no
way worthy, offered their lives that
the same might be made secure,

INJURED ARM MAY END
ABE ATIEL's CAREER

New York. April 5.-Featherweigh
Champion Abe Attell probably has
fought his last match in the ring. An
examination today by his physicians of
his left shoulder. which suffered an
other injury in his bout here last Fri
day with frankie Burns, showed that
the boxers shoulder was in a serious
condition and that he would have to
refrain from lighting for six months
or year at least
Even at the expiration of this long
period II us doubtful if Atten can box
again. but his physicians are anxious
TO make his condition look as light as
possible. The loss of Attell from the
boxing game will be mourned. as he
is the last of the old-time champions.
Had Attell rested another few weeks
before meeting Burns his shoulder
probably would have been healed. He
paid little attention to 1t after being
injured over two months ago. Attell

RACINE CLUB BIDS FOR
KELLY-1HOMPSON 60
Offers 80 Per Cent of Gate;
New Orleans Will Give
Bruisers $500.

The promoters of the country are hot
after a fight between Hugo Kelly and
Johnny Thompson, who last week ar
gued for days over guarantees and per
centages and failed to get together be-
cause of exorbitant money demands.
Silvie Ferretti, Kelly's manager, yes
terday received two offers for the
match and is determined to make
Thompson accept one of them or admit
that he fears to tackle Kelly.
John j. Wagner. one of the leading
boxing promoters at Racine. yesterday
told Ferretti he would give so per cent
of the gate for ten round battle be-
tween the Cyclone and Hugo. Wagner
says he can seat 1000 people and
thinks the pair would easily draw $1o.-
600. He offers no guarantee but 80 per
cent of the gross gate is exceedingly
liberal and Ferretti is anxious to make
Thompson see it that way.
The West Side A. c. of New Orleans
also wants Kelly for a twenty round
match and Ferretti has told the club
to get Thompson Hugo's opponent if
possible. The New Orleans club OF
which u. j. Tortorich is the match
maker. will guarantee the two men ST.

middle of the afternoon after two DAYS
without turning a wheel on account of
Indictment weather. AS It was election
day and the players were not allowed
to vote for lack of registration they
held an election of their own.
The only question submitted was
contained In a little ballot asking an
expression as to the politics of the
weather man. The result was over
whelmingly in favor of declaring the
scamp prohibitionist on account of
his prediction for water. The scat
tering vote was divided between So

hotbed of baseball anarchy for the next
few weeks The decision of the ma

the map of organized baseball came as
a seprent out of the sea to President
Hofer and his partners. They had been
given assurance by a member of the
national commission that their inter
ests would be protected and conse-
quently did not attend the meeting in

Heavy Rain Prevents Cub
Game and Athletes Hike
to Danville.

Danville. Ill, April 5.-Hitting three
training spots and not getting into a
baseball suit was the lot of the Cubs
yesterday
A bit of exercise was obtained in the
mad rush for an early train out Of
Evansville. Terre Haute was reached
at noon. and because of the heavy rain
all night no game was possible. The
boys got their exercise in finding a
lunch place and catching a o'clock
train for Danville. This place was
reached at 6 O'Clock, and the days
workout wound up with a two mile
hike to the hotel for the train unload
ed the athletes over on one edge near
the Indiana line. Manager Chance said
no bus was needed, and the merry
tramp began.
When the Aetna hotel was reached
all agreed it had been as strenuous a
day of training had been experience
ed since the trip began. and one
cared to explore Joe Cannon's town
last night. All were content to sit in
the hotel and receive news from the
Chicago election. and nearly all had
retired by 10 o'clock.

nervous breakdown that he is able to
leave his Michigan avenue residence
for rides in his motor car, or on pleas

That Condor even has been sick will

The same pluck and spirit which the
track owner Sshowed when his sight
failed him about 1925, was apparent
in his latest trouble. when some of
those around him feared he would not
regain his health He now feels that
anything like crisis is past.
Condor is not an old man as the
term is accepted being about "a years
of age. but he always has been under
a heavy nervous strain. Especially
was this so in the last half dozen years
with a reform wave sweeping the
country, leaving in its wake idle race
tracks. In which thousands of dollars
were invested. Condor was sole own

city part owner of the Worth race

STADIUM

The plan to eventually provide rhe
University of Washington with a giant
stadium similar to the one in use at
Harvard will probably go through. The
plan was originally suggested by the
board of control of the students asso-
citation. In order to obtain funds to
help construct the arena it is suggest
ed that the students registration fee
be increased from IS to SIS yearly and
that the extra money derived from the
$500 students be placed aside for in
vestment. At per cent the sum would
yield $4,000 in five years. Together
with donations it would be possible for
the athletic authorities to start work
on the project. The matter will be pre-
scented to the general student body for
final adoption at the next meeting Of
the committee on student affairs.

600 for the fight. Thompson has been
insisting on a $4,000 guarantee for
himself. Ferretti says he Will split
the $4,000 15 per cent to the winner and
25 to the loser. so that If Thompson
thinks he can beat Kelly he is sure of
$4,000 if he wins. This looks like
fair proposition and one that Johnny
can hardly dodge.
There is a great demand for this
match. as an elimination contest to
pick foe for Pauke. Thompson should
meet Kelly half way. at least, if he
wants to retain the prestige he gained
by decision over Papke.
