JESS WILLARD THE
last WHITE HOPE"
BY Hal Sheridan

written for the United Press)
NEW YORK, Jan. 9.-Jess Willard,
the big Kansan scheduled to min
gle with John Arthur johnson at Jua-
rez, Mexico, in a battle for the heavy
weight championship of the world
may be no match for the black man
but he at least is the best white pros
pect in sight.
The "white hope crop still looks
like it has for several years past--de-
cidedly poor-but the big Westerner
appears to have a good edge over any
of the rest of the white fighters as an
opponent for johnson. If the cham.
pion beats Willard the hunt for man
to whip the negro might as well stop.
Or at least new crop will have to
come mp for inspection.
Frank Moran, the Pittsburg fighter
who went against the black man in
Paris, never was conceded a chance
with Johnson. He was simply "pick-
ed" by the black and forced down the
threat of the sporting public.
Looking back over the crop of
"hopes' of the past few years Will
lard looms up rather well. Carl Nor
ris, Jim Stewart, AL Halzer, Luther
McCarty, Arthur Pelky and Gunboat
Smith form about the most formida-
BILE of them-Morris never did ap
proach the serious stage. Stewart
soon blew up. Halzer fell before Nc
Carly who was later killed in a bout
with Pelky. McCarty was about the
best of the bunch and the critics
wouldn t even consider him an out
side chance with johnson. Pelky was
dismal failure and Gunboat Smith
has recently taken several beatings
All in all, Willard looks like lone
hope, and it is pretty certain that
few fortunes will be wagered on his
chances of winning. He is big and
probably will stack up well against
johnson in size. He has tpuneh -
too, but there is considerable doubt
as to whether he has enough ability
to land it on the negro. Many critics
declare that johnson will simply toy
with Willard.

FORESIGHT OF HER PIONEERS
Story Of Minnesota Public Lands 10
Rcbuke to States That squan-
dered Valuable Grants.

The wisdom of the founders Of
Minnesota is beyond question, for
as the result of their forethought and
the good judgment Of such men az
Alexander Ramsey and other early
lawmakers, our state stands out and,
ahead Of any other in the Union in
its provisions for the schools and 9TH
or public institutions of the state. So
prominent is this contrast that the
Youths Companion, known through
out the world for it's conservative
statements and reliability, says:
Most of the states to which the
national government has made large
grants of land find little satisfaction
In telling how they have disposed of
It. To this rule Minnesota is a no
table exception, and the story, of it's
public lands is both a rebuke to other
states that have squandered their val
liable grants and lesson to the
states that still have natural re-
sources worth preserving.
while other states were selling
their public lands for a dollar or so
IN acre and using the money for cur
rent expenses, Minnesota was selling
the land itself tor agricultural pur-
poses for IS an acre; it put the total
proceeds into a permanent fund for
the benefit Of its schools ana of its
charitable and penal institutions. The
fund now amounts to $34,OOO,OOO and
Eives Minnesota larger school fund
than that of any other state in the
Union. Four neighboring states, to
which the national government was
not less generous in allotting, public
lands, have all together funds of only
e16,O00,0OO.
Moreover, Minnesota still owns
100000 acres, mainly in the timber
district, and from the sale of the tim
Der and Of the land to the settlers
The s+sta Will double it's present per

manent fund before many years have
passed. More Important still, it
owns 100000 acres of land in which
there are rich deposits of iron. The
state has leased the iron ore land for
long periods at advantageous terms.
The land has already yielded $3,OO0,.
900, and under the present contracts
it will yield about $15O,OOo,OO0 in the
next generation. Thus, by 1850, Min
nesota expects to have a permanent
fund of fully $2OO,0OO,OOO, which will
yield at 4 per cent, $8,OO0,OOO a year
for its schools and other public in
situations.
"The care of this fund is an impor-
tant part of the business of the state
government, which acts in the ca
pacity of trustee. OF the present
fund of $34.000,O0C about $7,O0O,OO0 is
invested in the bonds of other states,
$15,O00,000 has been lent to counties,
cities and townships within the state,
and the rest, drawing interest at 4
per cent, is in contracts of sale for
farming lands.
Minnesota deserves the heartiest
congratulations of the other states
for the fsr sighted wisdom of it's early
lawmakers, and for the fidelity with
which it's officials of later years have
guarded their trust. Such a splendid
record of efficiency and honesty gives
new heart to those who are working
for the welfare of states that have
been less thrifty
