MR., RICE REPLIES
To JACK CURLEY
Attacks Statements of Fight
Promoter; Letter From
Gov. Mcdonald.

IN Mr. Curriers' remarks at the Ad-
club luncheon. as reported in The Her
aid of last evening. he made very in
teresting attempt to paint the minis
tiers black and the prize fight and Jack
Johnson white said Rev. Perry J. Rice
today. incidentally, however, he con-
firmed about all that has been said by
the good citizens of Ell Paso against
the prizefight
Tn his effort to show that the prize
fight is not an outlaw from the United
States, he names nine states in which
boxing is permitted. Granted that
prize fighting and boxing are one and
the same thing, he virtually admits
that IN approximately four fifth of the
states it is outlawed. 1 should not es-
TEEN a thing that has been banished
by law from fOur-fifths Of any terri
tory as having anything but an outlaw
relation to that territory, and I should
blush to try to defend a thing that so
my own country have declared to be
intolerable.. The list Of other countries
he named where prize fighting is al
lowed speaks volumes against it and
not a word for it.
As to Gov. Whitman.
I'm speaking of the character of the
men who follow the sport he says
they are not all buns and in proof Of
this statement he names four men
WHOM he says favor the prize fight, all
but one OF whom are pretty generally
known TO be interested in sports. It
might be we'll to ask Mr.. Curley to get
personal interview from Gov. Whit
man, of New York, expressing his
feeling about prize fighting. There are
some people in FL Paso who affect to
about this thing except those who say
so in writing over their own sigma
lures.
The Private Cars.
Speaking of the one hundred pri-
vate cars that will be parked in the
union station yards before the fight
1t might be well to inquire of East Las
Vegas as to the number of private cars
that were parked in the station yards
there a few years aSO when a prize
fight was staged there before placing
too much confidence in Mr.. Curley's
prediction. Perhaps in this connection
brief statement from the present gov
ernOr Of New Mexico regarding the
prize fight might be interesting"
From Gov. Mcdonald.
The following letter, dated February
9, was received yesterday, Mr.. Rice
your letter Of the I'd relative to the
proposed prtzefight at Juarez during
the meeting Of the Panhandle & s. ".
Stockmen's association, has been re-
ceived.
Il, as a stock man, do not favor such
an exhibition as that during the meet
ing. 1t is not typical of the desires of
the present day stockman. at any rate
it is not Of great many of them,
and it is time that they made their po-
sition known in regard to questions OF
this sort.
Yours truly,
"W. c. Mcdonald,
Governor"
Another COWman's Objection.
Another letter submitted by Mr.. Rice
is dated Buchanan, n. NJ, February TO-
and SAYS:
MY Dear Church People: am with
you in your fight against the prize
fight, especially as an entertainment
feature for the cOwmen. Ell PasO is
much mistaken in believing that any
great number of COW men would enjoy
such a spectacle.
Yours truly

Diversity Of Opinion.
There has been much diversity Of
legal opinion as to whether the county
eouldta Ike any action one way or the
other. Judges and lawyers with ex-
celIent regulations as jurists have rem
dered entirely opposite views If the
lawyers themselves cannot agree on
this, can there be any blame for a
layman not knowing what to do?
Hasn't the layman the right to ask?
Men like J. G. McNary, z. T. White, j.
A Happier and mayor Kelly went to the
court and presented the petition. 1t
was done openly and above board.
That petition was signed by J. r. Har-
per, chief justice Of the Eighth court
o. civil appeals. Can you blame a lay
man for thinking it legal when the
chlet justice of this court signed the
petition to the commissioners %
Mr.. Burgess said, while it is true that
county attorney c. W. Groom has de-
clared the appropriation illegal, judge
Peyton F. Edwards has declared it
legal He cited other cases in Texas
where counties have appropriated
money to defend similar suits.
''MOre business; Less Politics"
Has anyone told you how they ex-
pect to get this more business and less
politics q " he asked. Theirs is simply
a campaign of hate. They offer gilt
LeTlnB EeneraiLleS- Kelly OLIerS acts
successfully accomplished.
4 ask you TO vote all our ticket.
Man for man, they are better than the
opposition and. they win defeat them"
He then made comparisons of the
men on the different tickets. He said
c. a, Kline, opposition candidate for
city treasurer, had always been a Re-
publican and that his right to vote
in a Democratic primary would be
challenged next Tuesday. He read
from a booklet giving Biographies Of
Texans, where John Fisher "anti' can
didate for alderman, was given is "a
Republican in national affairs; an in
dependent locally" Fisher paid $50
to get that printed" he said. Compar-
ing the candidates for city Democratic
chairman, he said John NJ. Wyatt the
anti candidate had changed allegi-
ances as often as there had been can
didates and parties in FL PasO.
In his reference to the schools, Mr..
Burgess said that the Texas university
recognized the FL Paso high school as
the best in Texas, regardless of the
charge OF the "antis" that the school
board is full of politics

London, Nov. 23.-The Serbians
have won a victory over the Bulgar-

garians are said to have delayed their
march on Monastir and the Austro-
Germans are laboring under difficult
ties as result of the wintry wealth
er.
The invaders, however, claim steady
advances i'm the Pristina region of
the historic Kossovo plain, in the face
of bitter fighting by the Serbs. Hand
to hand conflicts are common. The
warfare is the bloodiest of the whole
Serbian campaign. The Austrians

The Montenegrins are giving battle
to the invaders along the Drina and
Linn rivers and at several points are
said to have repulsed them while in
the Ibar valley Serbian rear guards as
snmed the offensive.
1t is reported that the Serbs at
Monastir are receiving reinforce
ments and that the British are also
sending up men to the front through
which the Bulgarians had hoped to
drive the Serbs across the border into
Greece or westward into Albania.
Additional forces of men and guns
are being landed daily by the Entente

GREECE WILL ACCEPT TERMS
Will Accede to Conditions Laid Down
by Allies, But Does Not Want
to Fight.

London, Nov. PA dispatch from
Athens says the Greek cabinet is dis
posed to accept the conditions laid
down by the Entente Powers except
that condition which requires Greece
to participate in the war, and a solu-
ton of the whole difficulty may be
expected shortly.
Meanwhile the blockade of Greek
commerce has commenced and Italy,
1t is reported, is participating in the
measures of restraint decided upon.
Roumania finds herself in much the
same position as Greece, with both the
Entente Allies end the Central Pow
ers bringing pressure to bear upon
her.
On the whole, it is expected here
that the firm attitude of the Entente
Powers toward Greece will clear the
Balkan situation before very long.
