BART GORDON GETS DECISION
OVER AL ALLEGER IN TENTH
From Fridays Daily.

From Fridays Daily.
In what was probably the best box
ing bout ever staged in yinita Bart
Gordon, of Vinita. was sgiven the de-
cision over All Allegar, of Springfield,
Mo, Wednesday night The contest
lasted the limit as scheduled, ten
rounds, and both men were still in
good fighting trim when the gong
sounded at the end of the last session.
Friends of both men claimed their
man had the best of the argument, but
Referee Meeks, declared Gordon the
victor, thus settling all disputes. The
work on the part of each contestant
was fast, botn showing a willingness
to mix it at AL stages of the game.
rs this leaves honors even between
Allegar and Gordon, the former having
best the latter on the occasion Of a
former meeting, these two popular fell
lows Of the boxing game will probably
meet again in the near future.
While most fans prefer to SEES a
knockout, about all of those who wit
messed the contest Wednesday night
agree that it was clean, snappy af-
fair, but many believe it should have
been a draw.

|TA'H|GHsSCHOOL HAS
WALK AWAY WITH MIAMI
From Fridays na,Iv.

'IoIn bFludJ Univ
The football game, between Vinita
high school and Miami high school, at
Electric park yesterday afternoon was
almost q farce. Only once during the
game did things look blue for the local
team and that was in the first minute
of play. Miami caught a forward pass
and carried the ball over the line for 4
touchdown After that Vinita woke
up and carried the ball swiftly down
the field for a touchdown. and a mo-
ment later kicked perfect goal
From this time on Vinita had every
thing her own way, for not once did
Miami hold for downs, and only three
times during the game made first
down. Vinita's interference seemed
invincible and time after time the fast
backs carried the ball twenty and
thirty yards at a time. The feature
of the game was the kicking of Bailey
of the Vinita team. He kicked seven
goals during the game. Carter, Jones
and Bailey were the stars for Vinita,
The final score was vinita 66, Miami

.FOSS FOR CLOSER
UNION OF STATES
Declares Business Interests of the
Country Must Be Built Up Con-
struetively for the People.

Charleston, S. c., Dec 30.--A closer
union of the states for popular gov
ernment and the elimination of special
tariff and other privileges, as the only
basis for constructive national pro-
gress. was advocated by Governor Eu-
gene n. Foss of Massachusetts in an
address before St Andrews Society
yesterday
He declared the business interests
of the country must be buitl up on
constructive business lines for the
benefit of the people, and that the re
pubnean party had utterly failed in
this regard.
He outlined the progressive move
ment of the democratic party, which
he said, furnished the necessary solu-
ton of our national problems, and
declared the country is calling on that
party to assume the leadership. He
said the Sherman act had failed to
safeguard and develop our industrial
prosperity and that it had reacted in
i ijuriously upon all business, He be-
lieved, he said, that each state must
now take up the duties of regulating
its trade and commerce, instead of
leaving this to take it's chances with
unwise federal control and litigation;
called for more business-like direc-
ton of public affairs and declared it
to be the duty and the opportunity of
the progressive democracy to estab
lish clean cut business methods in
government as well as in industry and
commerce.
! Governor Foss said in part:
The people now realize that the
business interests of the country and
all problems of public finance and
fiscal policy, cannot remain the prey
of partisan schemes; but must be rails
ed to the highest level on sound econ.
omic principles. Progress is possible
on this plan, and on no other. Legis-
lation in regard to our industry and
commerce has hitherto been for more
destructive of broad, honest expansion
than effective in checking dishonesty
or in limiting monopolies.
1--WE now enter upon new era in
which progressive legislation on these
lines will take the place of tariff Jug
Cling, and its attendant evils.
The era of the Payne-Aldrich tariff
has been also the era of the political
boss 1t has witnessed the subyersion
of legislatures, the dictation of con
lgressional action and the disturbance
of executive duty, through forces that
work in the dark, against the public
welfare 1t has been the direct repre-
sentation of popular will, supplanted
by the dictates of political machines.
i'Relief from present conditions can
be-ani will be-accorded by demo-
cratic administration and democratic
congress. These results can be Sc
lcured by our party through the twin
policies of a reasonable tariff and set
tied program of reciprocal agreements.
ut is time for congress, while up
holding the principle that Interstate
and foreign trade shall be free from re-
straint, to define so far as practicable,
what specific acts shall be deemed
lawful and what unlawful in order
that the legitimate business of the
country may know what the conditions
are to which business must conform"
