carl MORRIS, 0KLAHOMA'S WHITE MANS HOPE
A BIG BOY WITH A PUNCH AND NO EXPERIENCE

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. Jan.
Carl Morris of Sapulpa, who
has jumped in one short year from
the obscurity as fireman on a
Frisco freight engine into the rap
idly-shifting glare of the public
spotlight, is Sanother of those
mushroom hopes of the white
race"
To the casual observer, who has
seen him knock out dub after dub
with sledgehammer blows, power
full enough to drop an OK, Morris
looks like a world beaten.
But to the critic who realizes
that a champion must have class,
experience and an intimate knowl-
edge of the game, il is apparent
that Morris has to travel long
road before he gets the speed and
cleVerness to entitle him To con-
sitleration. The truth is he has
lot to learn to bring home the
kale, even in matches with tough
seCond-raters.
His Record.
Morris has something of a rec
ord hereabouts. No man has been
able to stand before him for more
than five rounds. He has the con-
fidence of a titled heiress hunter
because of the easy way he has dis
posed of the men he has met. He
is young -twenty-four to be exact
and as strong as an Alaska
brown bear. He spent four years
in the army, and it was there he
learned to put on the mitts." Fir
ing an engine completed his de-
velopment.
Morris is not as awkward as
might be imagined-he's just
green. He is light on his feet for
man who towers 6 feet inches
and weighs 240 pounds. He has a
reach of 81 inches-nine inches
greater than Johnson,-and the
barrel he calls his chest stretches
the tape at 40 inches.
Morris has an ex-railroad teleg-l
rapher, w. f. Stone, as manager,
and Stones experience in ring af-
fairs is limited, to put it mildly.

Workers of the World
BY PETER POWER.

both Taft and Morgan by backing
Roosevelt in his insurgency cam
paign. Perkins will devote all MS
time to manufacturing and boom
ing the Issues of government con-
troll and profit-Eharing which
Roosevelt favors, to ''thwart So
cialism."
Now, If the steel trust and
other big business friends CT Taft
continue to lay off men and chop
into wages, quite naturally the
present occupant of the white
house will lose more prestige and
greater numbers of dissatisfied
people will lock to Roosevelt to
come back.
AS Taft controls the machine he
will be renominated in all proba-
bflity, and should the democrats
name Harmon or Wilson, either of
whom are considered safe and
same" by the special interests, it
will require little effort on the
part of tire republican insurgents
and Bryan reformers to get to-
gether and form a radical >gparty
TO unite labor and capital around
Roosevelt. Mitchell would be ex-
pected to swing labor into dine,
while Perkins would look after
the capital end.
Whether or not a new party is
launched, one thing is certain, and
that is, the labor question will be
more prominently to the front in
1912 than it ever has been i'm the
history of the country.
