BOXING NOTES
eBy T. s. Andrews.o )

X
 Georges Carpentier, the French champion. lost the decision to Joe Jea- nette. the colored heavyweight. in Paris. after a battle of fifteen rounds. but he did not lose any of his pres tige The French boy went into the battle against big odds-~and the re- markabIe part of it Is that he was able to put up such a splendid showing against those odds. He not only gave away twenty pounds in weight to one of the best of the trio of eolored heavy weights, but he also lacked the ez- perience of his adversary. Had the fight gone twenty rounds or more the chances are that Jeanette would have stopped the Frenchman, but at the end of the fifteenth round both men were standing toe to toe in the center of the ring and exchanging blow for blow It might really be called a victory for the French boy. Carpen- tier had the only knockdown of the contest to his credit, when he put the coIored giant down in the first round with a blow to the jaw. For the first eight rounds, outside of the fifth and sixth. the Frenchman had all the best of the fighting, but he began to tire then and from that point Jeanette had the best of the battling, getting the decision at the end of the fifteen rounds. Carpenter is only in his twentieth year and not fully develop ed With additional weight and the strength that goes with it he should become a great heavyweight, for at the present time he appears to have the science and gameness.
 Freddy Welsh, the British light weight champion. is still able to trav- el at top speed and hold his own against the best of them. Freddy is 2s years of age and has been fighting for a number of years, but he is just as~ fast and clever to-day as when he met Packey Mcfarland in MiIwa ukee in 1908. He has been persistent challenger of Willie Ritchie for the lightweight crown, that is, the worlds title, and he has a. perfect right to challenge for the same. His defeat of Joe Rivers at Los Angeles only proves again that he has all the class necessary to tackle any lightweight living.
 Rivers is not a has-been by any means and his fight some time ago with Ad Wolgast showed him to be as husky and clever as ever, so that U makes Welsh's victory all the more brilliant. What the fans would like to see now is contest of twenty rounds for the worlds title between Welsh and Ritchie. Both are rec ognized champions in their respective countries and the result of such d meeting would settle the question of worlds champion in the nghtw ght division.

An ISSUE IN WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

Woman suffrage was defeated in
Ohio while the saloons were retained.
There is a connection between the de-
feat and the victory
The liquor interests are making as
hard a fight against equal suffrage as
in defense Of the saloons. The fight
against votes for women is simply a
defensive movement for saloons.
Still, Ii California where equal SUI
frage prevails the saloons held their
own. Colorado and Arizona however
closed the saloons by the force Of the
woman vote.
California has large cities and many
wineries. Arizona has none and Colo
RADIO but one large city.
In states where the small town and
country population is in majority equal
suffrage means the abolition Of the
saloons. In states with great and
dominan city populations the prospect
would probably result in favor of the
liquor interests. In Iowa the day that
women attain equal franchise rights
Iowa will be dry as a bone from one
side TO the other. Moreover the time
waits in the states having large cities.
Sooner or later in those states where
women may vote the women will turn
out the saloons
Every possible pressure will be
brought upon the next legislature TO
prevent submission of the suffra ge
amendment. The liquor interests will
see to that.
Consequently every temperance and
anti-saloon voter In Iowa should see
TO it that his representatives in the as
sembly know his desires and demands
on this question. Woman suffrage has
become part of the wet and dry fight.
The liquor interests are out in the
open boldly assailing It, The drys
should get in line for their own
Evening times-Republican. [volume] (Marshalltown, Iowa) 1890-1923, 1914-11-05
WHERE THE MISTAKE OCCURRED.

Later returns indicate that both
Cummins and Clarke will practically
double the pluralities claimed on cleo
ton night and that their lead will be
about 10000 over their democratic OPP
ponents. On the face of the returns
the demand of the Connolly managers
for a recount in six river counties
where Connolly expected TO win and
where his vote fell down in manner
shockingly disappointing seems waste
of energy. Scott county especially was
severe disappointment to the Connolly
managers. According to the figures
received a Des Moines both Cummins
and Clarke carried Scott
1t is probable that Scott and Musca-
tine are simply part of the Connolly
disappointment. They are a hard
headed bunch those German farmers in
Scott. They have always approved of
Cummins. Connolly Is not precisely the
type that would appeal to them. They
want man who stays on the job,
seriously. That is why Cummins has
always been strong in Scott. 1t is also
Il probable explanation of Connolly's
weakness. The fact is that Connolly
couldn't stand the comparison. 1t was
too vivid.
If there is any justified suspicion of
fraud or serious mistake in any coun-
~ or precinct let the vote be recounted
by all means. However. he Connolly
and Hamilton managers will find with
out much doubt that there was no
mistake either in the count or the re-
suits. The mistake was in the judg-
ment which assumed that Iowa would
turn the clock hands back and Con-
molly and Hamilton should bear their
disappointment bravely as they may.

THE PLACE FOR PRoeREssIyEs.

The progressive slump in the cleo
ton was something more than a slump
1t was a tumble. In Illinois the pro-
gressiyc representation In the legis-
lature was trimmed to one solitary
member. Robins, an excellent man per-
sonally ran poor third on the pro-
gressive ticket for senator. 1t was so
in Massachusetts and elsewhere east
and west
1t is proof that most of the voters
who sought the new party in hope
have come back home disappointed
and convinced that they can accom-
plish much more as republicans. Such
few democrats as allied themselves
with the bull moosers had hurried
back when Wilson was elected. The
democrats in the progressive party
were few and far between at best. It
drew its flash Of strength from the re-
publicans. And now that they have
realized that their opportunity is at
home In their own party urging re-
forms and purposes which may be ac-
complished by republicans instead OF
continuing a failure. the bull moose
party becomes of slight force and
less accomplishment.
However, let none assert the pro-
gressive movement has entirely lacked
accomplishment 1t injected a new
element into politics which has come
to stay, The effects of it's platform
will be felt in all the platforms of all
parties that hope for success before
the people and much OF 1t will be re-
written and adopted by the conventions
OF dominant parties. The lash of its
100000 votes was felt where the
sting would do the most good Az the
progressives return to the party OF
their first love be assured that they
bring with them all the purposes Of
