A Government For Public Good.

cause What is our cause? The peo-
pies cause? That is easy to say, but
what does II mean? The common as
against any particular interest what
ever? Yes, but that, too, needs trans
Iation into acts and policies. We rep
resent the desire to set up an unen-
tagled government. a government that
cannot be used for private purposes,
either In the field Of business or In
the field Of politics; a government that
will not tolerate the use Of the organ
ization Of great party to serve the
personal aims and ambitions Of any
individual and that will not permit

any private interest II is great con-
ception, but am free to serve it, as
you also are. I could not lave ne

men. No man can be Just who is not

favOrs ought to undertake the solemn
responsibility Of government in any
rank or post whatever, least OF all In
the supreme post Of president Of the

To be free Is not necessarily to be
wise. But wisdom comes with coun-

The very fact that we have at last
taken the Panama canal seriously in

"got after" Jack Johnson, the city au-
thorities began looking up his black
and-tan" resort, the Cafe de Cham
pion, the women leaders in reform
movements threatened TO start a cru
sade to put the black pugilist out of
business, and as a finishing blow he
received notice that Hugh Mcintosh
would not stage his fights with Lang
ford and McVey in Australia, from
which he had counted on cleaning up
at least $4,000 this winter
Altogether it was a bad day for

made that his hour mad struck. both
as champion pugilist and as an often
der against the good morals OF an out
ragged city.
The Federal authorities got busy
when Deputy United States Marshals

invaded the Cafe de Champion and

poenas to appear before the Federal

in Australia in which Johnson was TO
star, and sent an agent ", W Kelly,
to Chicago to offer Johnson contracts
calling for $4,000 for a series of en-
gagements with Sam Langford and
Sam McVey or Joe Jeanette.
Mcintosh wired Kelly to drop all
negotiations with Johnson. explaining
that Johnson's role as the alleged alb
ductor of Lucille Cameron has so an
gered the sporting public in Australia
as to make the black pugilist doubt
