Who viii be The next lightweight to
meet Willie Richie in a championship
battle? The question was put TO me
by a well known sporting man OF New
ing between the American champion
and Joe MandOt- OF course the writer
probably overlooked the fact that
MandOt had been beaten by Jose Rivers
about the same time that Richie re-
lieved Ad WOlgast Of his crown.
thinking only Of the fact that MandJt
is home boy and is deserving Of great
credit for the showing he has made
the past year However, despite the
fact that Rivers, MandOt Murphy and
WOlgast all have a good claim to
match with Richie, I think the logical
match is between Freddy Welsh and
the California boy 1 have Just re-
ceived word direct from the British
champion, stating that he intended soon
10 start for the United States and that
he would Immediately get on the trail
of Willie Richie. There should be no
occasion for Welsh to chase Richie
for a match, as his position in the box
ing game is such that he can demand
a match, providing the American cham
pion wants to engage in battle for
the worlds title
Walsh. as champion Of Great Britain,
has every right to demand first chance
for such an encounter. He holds The
championship Of the British Isles, Can
ada and Australia, and has a victory
over Richie, having defeated the
American champion in a 20 round con-
test at Los Angeles in November, 1911.
when Ad WOlgast then title holder of
America, was taken down with appen-
dicitis, Richie taking his place. There
fore Welsh's claim to worlds champion
is really better than Rltchie's, but as
matters stand neither one is champion
of the world, and the only way to set
tie the dispute is to have them meet
in a regular contest for the title. And
such a contest will be a real interna-
tiOnal match for the worlds champion
ship and the first one held in many
years.

COURT RULES
AGAINST SWANSON
SUPREME COURT DECISION PER-
MlTs KloWA COUNTY OFFICIAL
TO ENFORCE ACTION.

Oklahoma City, Okla, Oct. 22.-The
so-called Swanson county movement
was dealt what is believed to be a
death blow by the state supreme court
today when Justice Kane handed
down an opinion denying certain Of
ficials of Swanson County a writ to
prohibit Kiowa County authorities
from enforcing an action against the
organization of the county.
The case was brought to the high
er court by Judge Barnes, Hugh Fran
cisco, and eight other officers of the
would-be new county on appeal from
an action taken in the district court
Of Kiowa county, presided over by
judge James r. Tolbert.
The case decided today is a sequel
to the Armstrong case upon which
the supreme court gave an opinion al
most two years ago. In the Armstrong
case the supreme court issued an or
der dissolving Swanson county. When
an effort was made later to reorgan-
ize Swanson county, county attorney
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1913-10-23

Griffith of Kiowa county, applied for
an injunction from Judge Tolbert to
restrain such reorganization. An or
der was granted from which an appeal
was taken. A stipulation was en-
tered into, however, that pending the
appeal, no effort was to be made to re-
organize the county.
1t was contended that while
the former proceeding (the Armstrong
case) was nominally against the per
sons who asserted the right to perform
the duties Of the various county oftic-
ers of the county, it was in effect
against the de factor county, and that
such a proceeding being local action,
could be brought only in the district
court of Swanson. 1t was alleged that
at the time of the quo warranto pro-
ceeding in the district court of Co
manche county, Swanson county was
a county de factO, and was therefore
removed from the territorial jurisdic-
tion of the district court of Comanche
county, or Kiowa county.
Justice Kane dsagrees with this
contention, and says
"In an action in the nature of quo
warranto to test the validity of the or
ganzation of a new county, the prop
er respondents are the persons who
assume to act in the corporate capaci-
ty and such a suit may be brought in
the county in which the respondents
or some OF them reside, or may be
summoned, or in any court of general
jurisdiction to which they voluntarily
submit themselves
