Johnson fell and was counted Out

For twenty-five rounds the negro had
battled bitterly and bravay against
his gigantic young white opponent,
waging a warfare of such gameness
and craft as to finally arouse the ad-
miration of even the sporting men at
the ringside who had been waiting
since 1910 for this day. And while
the finish was obvious no one had
looked for it so soon.
Only the round before someone in
the crowd had remarked that Johnson
had quit laughing. Johnson turned
and winked his eye and lifted his
bruised and bloody lips in ghost of
his famous old golden smile" and
then stumbled out of his corner for
the twenty-sixth round.

NEW MEXICO CLAIMS
STRIP OF COLORADO

SANTA F'E, N M, Nov. 11.-Gov.
w. C. Mcdonald is convinced that
New Mexico has valid claim to a
three hundred and fifty-mile strip,
varying from half a mile to a mile
wide, now claimed by the state of
Colorado, along this states northern
boundary, the thirty y-seventh parallel.
The state will institute proceedings
to secure the land, estimated to be
worth several million dollars.
1t is claimed that the line surveyed
by E. H. Darling for the United States
government in 1868 was shown by a
federal survey by H. B. Carpenter
in 1904 to be erroneous. A resolu-
ton passed by congress adopting the
Carpenter survey was vetoed by Presi-
dent Roosevelt. 1t is held that Edith,
Ortiz and La Costilla, Colo, should
rightly be included in New Mexico.

SUPREME COURT DEALS
DEATH BLOW To SALE Of
NEAR BEER IN AR|zON|

PHOENIX, Ariz., Nov. 9.-Holdine
that the sale of near beer is for
hidden by the state constitution, the
supreme court today handed down an
opinion sustaining the decision of the
lower court in the celebrated "Bar-
ette" case. Any concoction which
comes under the name of beer, the
supreme court held, is prohibited,
whether it is intoxicating or not. Bar
cite is said to contain 176 per cent
alcohol.
The case before the court was that
of L. A. Brown of Bisbee, who was
arrested for selling Barette, and con-
victed Of violating the prohibitory
amendment. Brown was given a jail
sentence, which he now must serve.
Pending the decision of the supreme
court in the Barette case, the cases
filed by the attorney general in the
United States court against the manu-
facturers of Barette and Hopski were
postponed.
Defining near beer the supreme
court held that near beer is made by
those who make beer, sold by those
who sell beer, drunk by those who
drink beer; and that it looks like
beer, smells like beer and tastes like
beer. Beer, the court states, is the
common name for all malt liquors
whether Of the intoxicating or nom
Intoxicating kind.
The decision is held to be a death
blow to the sale of the many varieties
of near beer which have been intro
duced into Arizona since the first of
the year. Hopski, Reif's Special, Tan

IMPROVING THE MINUTES

The attention of the man who never
has time, as well as of the man who
has it to kill, is called to the case
of Ernest Stout of the Chicago Even
ing Post, who has just passed the
state examination for admission to
the bar. For the past five years Stout
has been reading law during his spare
time. much of his studying having
been done on the street cars.
History and the fourth reader are
full of shining examples of men who
have improved the fleeting moments,
fitting themselves for something bet
ter, but such cases are rare in real
life. With all our talk about eff
cheney and modern methods of saw
ing time, most of us are wasteful of
that precious commodity, and fritter
away valuable hours while assuring
ourselves and our friends that we
were never so busy.

it shows WhaI yean-. be accomplished
in the line of time improvement even
under the most adverse conditions
The time pressure on a big metro
politan paper especially on an after
noon paper is tremendous, and a man
to be success at all must use every
moment to advantage. He lives in a
perfect whirlwind of activity, and
when he is through work and the
pressure is relaxed, he is likely to
take things easy for the rest Of the
day. Almost everybody has the same
feeling when he has been at any task
that requires sustained effort and
concentration, certainly it is true in
the case Of work on one Of the big
dailies.
In these days of extension courses
and correspondence schools, the
dWeller in the most remote part
Of the country has as good a
chance as the city man. The only
thing that keeps him from making
use of the advantages offered is his
excuse that he has no time, and that
excuse Mr.. Stout has proven is only
an excuse. The fact that Stout was
able to concentrate on the study
of law is a crowded Chicago street
car should be an incentive to every
young man and young woman seek
ing to improve, and to prepare for
something better in the future.
The state university, through it's
agricultural department and it's school
Of mines, is striving to reach and
help the young people of Arizona,
d there is no reason why they
should not follow the example Of the
Chicago man, and use their spare

NON ADVERTISING MERCHANTS

Although merchants in the smaller
towns and cities throughout the coun-
try are the ones who complain most
bitterly of the competition Of mail
order houses, many of--these very
men refuse to adopt the means which
made competitors prosper-advertis
ing. In a recent issue Of the Chatham
{ N. W Courier, the editor makes
some very interesting and pertinent
remarks regarding the non advertising
merchant:
1.-THE country merchant deplores the
fact that the mail order houses are
making inroads on his patronage.
How did they do it, Did they send
representatives into the rural COM
munities to solicit trade? Did they
simply open their places Of business
and wait for customers? They did
not. They obtained all-not a part
but ALL-of their patronage by the
use of printers ink. They advertised.
The average local merchant does not
seem to realize, even with this gi-
gantic object lesson before him, that
the means employed by these con-
Germs are also at his disposal.
Through the medium Of the printed
word they tell the public what they
have to sell.
Experience has shown that quality
for quality the local merchants prices
are no higher than those of the mail
order house and they save the pur-
chaser transportation charges. The
difference is that the mail order
house tells the public what it has to
sell and the non n-advertising merchant
does not.
"The latter frequently advances the
argument against advertising that
everyone knows where his store is
and what he has to SELL He is wrong.
Everyone does not know what he has
to sell. II he doubts this let him

would satisfy their thirst with "some-
thing like it, are all under the ban,
and according to the decision of the
court cannot be sold in this state
without violating the prohibition
amendment The fact that the beyer-
age sold is Intoxicating does not
make any difference according to the
courts decision. In fact, evidence was
introduced in the lower court that
Barette, the drink in question, was not
an intoxicant, and that no matter how
much a man drank of it he could not
become intoxicated.
The fact that Barette was shown to
be light or near beer, made from
hops, barley and water, and manu-
factured by brewing process, led the
court to the conclusion that it came
under the definition Of beer, which,
according to standard definitions, is
a beverage obtained by process of al
coholic fermentation, mainly from
cereals, hops and water. Beer is there
fore by the terms of the definition
not necessarily intoxicating.
In support of its Interpretation of
the amendment the court quotes from
the federal law prohibiting the sale Of
liquors to. Indians, from which the
Arizona law was taken almost bodily,
and cites the decision of United
States court fifteen years ago to the
effect that beer, whether intoxicating
or not, is prohibited.
The decision that near beer cannot
be sold in Arizona is regarded by
many as a serious blow to the pro-
hibition amendment, for the reason
that it makes the law elaborately
strict, in that it prohibits the sale of
nom Intoxicating beverages.
