/ saw the sporting editor at the
ringside last night, so know that
the main event will be well taken
care of ON another page. For
Ioyself. am not interested in the
main event. Nor in the prelim-
mary. am interested in the
semi-windup.
1t is doubtful If the crowd at
the Tacoma Athletic club saw the
deep significance of the event
known as the semi-windup. Ger
tainly, you who were not there
cannot see it. So / will make it
perfectly clear.
You must know, then, that Joe
Bonds is terrible fighter. He
has youth, strength, courage,
stamina and skill. He was billed
to meet Fred Hicks of Roy. Hicks
Is also a terrible fighter.
Now, visualize, IL you please,
the Hicks family. / do not know
them, but l assume there is a
Father Hicks, also a Mother
Hicks, likewise sisters and broth
ers Hicks-and AL Hicks. AL is
Fred's brother
Now, naturally, all the Hickses
are tremendously proud of Fred
Fred, alone, of the Hicks family
has stood in the limelight. He
has met some of the toughest
boys in this section. The sport
ing editors have said nice things
about him. Fred also says nice
things about himself.
He's a handsome, virile fellow,
this Fred. tall and strong as a
Viking, with swelling chest and
bullying biceps. The rest of the
family ask nothing better than to
sit around and tell the neighbors
about Fred and the battles he
has won and is going to win. You
can understand their feeling,
am sure. You will have to un-
derstand If you are to see the
deep significance of the semi
windup.
When the terrible Fred Hicks
was matched to meet the terrible
Joe Bonds, both went into strict
training. Fred realized that il
he could just land his justly ia.
nous haymaking wallop on the
point of Joe's jaw, he-Fred-
would step up one rung of the
pugilistic ladder.
Fred" said Father Hicks
will cop that Joe Bonds in the
first round" And all the othel
Hickses agreed that this was &
reasonable forecast.
But just "a hours before the
time set for Fred to meet Joe il
the roped arena, he-Fred-wa.
taken sick. The doctor said Free
couldn't possibly fight on the fol
lowing night.
You can sympathize. I am sure
with the whole Hicks family wher
they heard the Doctors pro
nouncement. They had basket
in the reflected glory which shont
effulgent around Fred. He wat
their son and brother. The pub
lie, ever tickle, might say FREQ
had cold feet. This was unbear
/ able.
Brother Fred" spake AL Hicks
81 will fight this Joe Bonds"
| But" protested Fred, "yol
don't know how to fight"
Which was perfectly true. A
doesn't. And never will.
II How proud was Father Hicks
| then! How proud was Motnel
Hicks! And all the Hickses
How proud they all We're! A
would spring into the breach. A
II would uphold the family's honor

LORIMER IN THE
GAME AGAIN
lBy United Press Leased Wire.l

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
WASHINGTON, July 4.-The
Lorimer case has again come to
the front. Several months ago
the senate fixed tie legislative day
of July 6 as the time when Lori
mer should be ousted or given
title to his seat.
Among the senators the pre-
vailing opinion was that when the
roll is called, the Illinois states
man will be transformed into a
former senator.
The last polls made to ascer-
tain the sentiment in the upper
house in regard to Lorimer indi-
cate that his support will be far
short of a majority.

REPUBLICANS TAKE SPACE
But One Democratic Candidate is Men
toned in the Book and the Most In
teresting Thing Found in it is the
Argument of Suffrage Question.

Hundreds of voters in Kenosha this
morning received copies of the state
political pamphlet issued for the gen
eral election and if possible the lat
est publication by the secretary of
state is a greater frost than the one
issued just before the primary election.
The pamphlet has just fifteen pages
and four of these pages are taken up
with an argument for and against the
adoption of the suffrage amendment.
Charles A. Kading of Watertown, the
democratic candidate for attorney gen
eral, was the only individual candidate
who took chance at the pamphlet
and his compaign statement occupies
but single page.
The republican candidates all have
their pictures in the book, but the lit
tie foot note shows that the cost was
paid by the republican state central
committee. The democratic state COM

the pamphlet and the name of Judge
Karel, the democratic candidate for
governor, does not appear anywhere in
the book.
Six pages of the pamphlet are given
over to the statement Of the republican
state central committee and at that
only portion of the party platform is
published. The social democrats man

single page and this is sandwiched in
between the long statement for the re-
publicans and the statement for Kad

lican publication and it is in no ways
of value as book to give the voters
ideas of the contesting candidates at
the election. Of course this is due to
the fact that the democrats failed to-
spend their good money to purchase
space and they probably will have no
objections to the makeup of the book.
