In reply to series Of PARTICLES
written by Tom Watson and printed
in his magazine, in which,. among
other charges, he arraigns "the! Ro-
man Catholic hierarchy as thes dead
lest menace to our liberties and our
civf1ization,' G. A. Windle, editor of
the Iconoc]ast, tears these unfound-
ed and false assertions to shreds. He
answers Watson, charge by charge,
and shows him up to the world in his
true light, successfully refuting
every lying statement-th are all
lying--which he makes. 1t is sur
prising that so learned man as Tom
Watson should brutally attack: the
tenets of a religion which has proven
SO important a factor in the civi]iza-
tion of the world. He can expect no
other than denunciation by all right
thinking people, regardless of their
creed, and he is deserving of such. 1t
is men Of the Watson stripe who are
"menace to our liberties and our
civilization, and not the Catholic
church.

From unbiased people who heard
Col. Roosevelt at the state fair last
Thursday we learn that his speech
did not create any great enthusiasm
among the listeners. In fact COM
paratively few remained to hear him
through. The sweltering hot wealth.
er was partly tosblame for the unrest
OF the crowd, but the fact remains,
nevertheless, that the colonel's visit
to St. Paul and Minneapolis was not
productive OF the results confidently
predicted and expected by his sup
porters. Il: Already the colonel's pop
ularity*in the Northwest is on the the
wane. The people are beginning to
regard him as more of a persistent
and ambitious office-seeker than a
disinterested patriot; It was ever
thus.

1 PUTR1D REuINIsGEN I, 3

Bob Jameson, q putrid reminis-
cence of the Van SAINT administra-
tion, is talked of as the probable sue
cessor Of I. A. Caswell as national
republican committeeman for Mime
sofa, and the political humorist Of
the Duluth News-Tribune declares
that under his generalship Minnesota
will still be found in the republican
column after the ballots are counted
November S. The facetious Guy Of
the Duluth paper then goes on to
add, "The Wilson and Roosevelt men
have been prominent on the political
stage during the last two months,
but Mr.. Jameson is expected by the
republican leaders to cut few capers
that will keep the other two camps
guessing 49,. '.....s .f~.
Yes, indeed, he can be trusted 'sto
cut few capers'' and to "keep the
other two camps guessing''-guessing
which of them will have the largest
plurality over Taft. President Taft's
chances of carrying Minnesota are
none too bright at present. With
Bob Jameson-the smallest cog in
the rotten old Van SAINT machine
as national committeeman, it will
be good-by, Minnesota, as far as the
president is concerned.

At the election in Maine Monday
the republicans redeemed the state

1.-THE stinginess Of the candidates
this year is unprecedented in a polit-

So long as a candidate pays for his
advertising he should not be expected
to lay himself liable to PERSECUTION

act. In many cases he is being
charged an exorbitant rate for his
advertising-four or FIVE times as
much as a merchant could buy a like
amount of space for. Because man
is. a candidate for office is no reason
why he should be b1ed, but some
publishers evidently think otherwise.

FREDDIE WELSH CLAIMS RIGHT
TOFIGHT RITCHIE FOR TITLE

gave Richie his chance to climb it
must be remembered that Welsh is
not only the champion lightweight of
England, but that he is also the light
weight champion of the British EN-
pire.
In all his bouts the Pride of Ponty-
pridd" has but two decisions against
him. "Packy" Mcfarland gained a
ten.round verdict over the Briton at
Milwaukee, a Chicago referee giving
the American the decision. But be-
cause of giving that decision to Nc
Farland that Chicago referee was
never again allowed to officiate in Mil
waukee. ~. ..:@..: ~ p
Matt Wells gained a twenty-ronnd
decision over Freddie Welsh at the
National Sporting Club in London and
won Fred's title from him. However,
the same pair met recently and Welsh
beat Wells in the second meeting and
won his title back.
Weish's wonderful record and the
fact that he is the champion of the
British Empire make that young man
from Pontypridd very formidable
rival of the present title holder.
Ritehie-WoIeast the Card -.
Undoubtedly a return match be-
tween Willie Ritchey and AID Wolgast
would prove absolutely one of the
most attractive matches that any pro-
moter could book Fortunately, or
unfortunately-it all depends on the
way you look at it-Ritchie won his
title on foul. 1t is the first time in
the history of the ring that a cham
pionship of the world changed hands
in that manner, and in many quarters
capable sporting men and capable
writer's express the opinion that
Ritchie's title vii not be a clear one
until he gives the Dutch Demon an
other chance and beats him, if he
can. &c.,. .
When Joe Cans and Battling Nelson
fought at Goldfield, Cans won on a
foul; but then it must be recollected
that Cans was the champion, and not
the challenger, at that time.
But there was always a warm dis
pute when sporting men discussed the
merits of Cans and Nelson, imnnedi-
ately after that match, with the re-
suit that sentiment was so evenly di-
vided that another match was made,
and in the second meeting Nelson won
by a knockout in the seventeenth
round.
Had Richie scored q knockout over
WOlgast, or even won a clear-cut de-
cision at the end Of twenty rounds,
then he would now be in position to
deay Wolgasts right to another
match. But the fact that Ritcnie won
a title on a foul-s0mething no cham
pion before him ever did-cIouds that
title.
Back in the conservative East the
sporting writer's are not taking to
Richie with any warmth, and many
of them are already panning Richie,
though most of them blame Griffin

GOLFERS TALK OF MATCH
WITH BRITISH PLAYERS

NEW YORK-At a time when most
golfers are trying to decide whether
they will put their clubs away for the
winter or -endeavor to break the long,
weary waiting for spring with a visit
TO one or the other of the southern
courses, international affairs again
force themselves to the surface. For
tunately there is no bone of conten-
ton between the ruling bodies here
and abroad, such as there was when
the ban on the Schenectady putter
and other matters occupied attention.
There is strong feeling that a
match should be arranged between
England and the United States.
Harold Hilton did poorly in. his eff
forts to raise team to come here.
However, it would take but two or
three capable players from this coun-
try, with the addition of such men as
f Roosevelt IScoVel and Douglas
Grant, Americans resident in Eng,
land. to make a formidable side.
1t is still a long time until next
June, but looking ahead, especially
where 1t concerns championships in
the British tournaments, is way the
golfers have. II by next season there
is desire on the part of any Of the
cracks here to go >after foreign hon,

Freddie Welsh's victory over
Hughie Michigan, the Australian,
whom he beat in a twenty-round bout
Iefore the National Sporting Club in
London, Dec. II. adds new con-
tender to the list of lightweights who
are now seeking to get match with
Willie Richie, the titlholder.
According to the meager accounts
of the Welsh Michigan bout just to
hand, 1t would seem that the Welsh
man had rather easy time with the
Australian and won all the way. The
account of the bout describes the af-
fair as tame one, with Welsh easily
outboxing the man from the Antipo-
des. Michigan tried hard to down
Welsh, but the latter's cleyerness
made IL easy for him TO evade the
headlong rushes of the man from the
land of the Southern Cross. Il
The men fought for purse of
S5p00 Michigan made many attempts
tol fight at close range, but Welsh
elected to box him, and the Australi-
ans efforts to get in close and bring
across damaging punches were futile
Michigan did not land half a dozen
solid wallops during the entire
twenty rounds of boxing.
After the bout Welsh declared that
he intended to sail for America at
once Welsh plans TO force Willie
Richie into return match.
For some time there has been talk
of a Richie Welsh fight, but recently
Richie submitted terms and the
Eastern promoter who wanted the
match considered them far too steep.
Richie asked for $4,000 to box
welsh ten rounds. Slightly more
than a year ago Richie was glad to
box the Same Welsh for about $500.
BUT Richie is champion now and in
a position to make demands.
Welsh Has Claim.
Next to AID Woigast, Freddie Welsh
holds the best claim on Willie Richie
to a return match The pair met for
a twenty-round engagement at Los
Angeles on the afternoon of Thanks
giving Day, 1911, and it was through
this fight that Richie jumped into
prominence. Welsh won that, Eout,
but Richie gave him such a close
call that The fans Immediately elect
ed Richie to the first class of light
weight Dugilists,
On the occasion of the meeting be-
tween Welsh and Richie, Wolgast
was to have boxed the Briton, But
something happened 10 Ads appendix
and Richie was substituted at the
eleventh hour. The green Richie
gave the ripened Welsh great bat
tie, and his name was Immediately
wired around the world as q cham
pionship Possibility.
If Freddie Welsh had not boxed
Richie, and he could easily have
eyaded that match. Willie's way to
the championship would not have
been so easy. .-s r.
