MANY THINK LOWE NO
MATCH FOR CHAMPION

washington's fight followers are just
beginning to take seriously the an
nouncement by the Ardmore Athletic
Club that Freddy Welsh is coming here
on June s to go over a ten-round course
with the veteran Tommy Lowe. That
Welsh. the lightweight champion Of the
world. would even consider coming to
Ardmore seemed TO surprise the wise
ones. but Manager LaFontaine and
Matchmaker Joe Freeman have pro-
duced ten telegrams affirming the
match-so all the skeptical ones have to
do Is wait.
Despite the difference in age between
Lowe and Welsh. many are taking their
melting sriously. since the proof Of the
match has been Exhibited. Lowe has
been in the ring twice the length OF
time that Welsh has. but has never met
opponents who were considered danger

DlyIssoN MuuNG FRIENDS

Geo A. Davisson, of Chavez
county Democratic candidate for
state land commissioner, is not only
baking Friends for himself, but is
daily gathering strength for the en-
,ire Democratic tickeI On account
Of the aggressive ofsmpaign he is
making in behalf Of the ticket.
When interviewed i'm Clayton by
d representative of the News, Mr..
nayisson, very effectively outlined
the administrative policy which he
will follow, if elected, to the very
important office in the following
words:
The small man is entitled to the
same consideration in all public
matters, as those more fortunate
and should be given an equal op-
Bortunity to purchase or lease the
public land Of New Mexico. The
FUNDS derived from the sales or
leases of the public lands belong to
the people of New Mexico, and not
To- any person or political party
and should be producing interest
in an amount sufficient to partly
pay, if not entirely care for the
expense Of the administration.
The state land fund is now in
excess Of 100000 and l am informed
by o. y, Marion, State Treasurer,
that there has never been paid, Onc
penny on the amount as handled
by my opponent, Mr.. Eryien This
money is on deposit i'm various banks
or the state; you have some of it
here IN Clayton, and while ] firmly
believe that it should be deslribui-
ed throughout the state | believe
that it should bee SO handled as to
produce a return, i'm the way of in
trrest, thereby allowing the money
of the citizens to earn something
toward defraying the expenses of
their government.
II am informed, and | believe
correctly, that the expenses of the
state land Office for the year 1918
were in excess Of $4,000, which
| believe to be rather expensive ad-
ministration in view Of the small
number of persons who were sue
cessful in securing leases or in the
purchase of state lands.
"As | stated before and your peo-
pie, Saturday night, l promise and
wi give them an economical ad-
ministration if elected to this office
and | not only invite but will ap-
preciate the very closest possible
investigation as to my ability and
past administration Of public Office,
and am willing to be judged by
that record.
Il ask and seek the support of
every citizen Of New Mexico who be-
lieve in honest service and fair
ness 10 each and every person with
out regard to his financial condition
or political creed"

Inheriting a taste TO dancing t:o@
her pa~en,s little gir! seeks on every
occasion to practice the art. But,
though her mother favors her am
bitions, her sevece aunts do not: and
i IS not until she grows into young
womanhood that she can crafty her
wish to become a SUGGEST III dancer.
Success crowns her efforts and she
becomes a popular star. Drifting into
bohemia, she almost becomes the prey
of a profigate man about town; but
she escapes his clutches and gives her
hand and heart to an honest young
countryman.
Happiness appears to be in sight for
the girl. But her former lover re-
turns and arouses jealousy in her
young husband, from whose mind,
however, all suspicion is removed by
the disappearance of the balle' girls

In one of my recent contributions
tc this column l quoted little poem
in which the sentiment was expressed
tnat there were two kinds Of people
in the world, those who lean and those
who lift or words to that effect, as
well as | can recall the story. l have
not the paper bd ore me, but the SEN
timent IS true and was beautifully ex-
pressed And by the way, if am not
mistaken that is the poem that tho
printer or the editor or somebody
about the office bal!ed up. l reckon
hat expresses what l want to say.
ANYWAY the last lines were somewhat
m;xed, and l did not keep a copy. l
read the other day prose poem on the
same subject, which expresses the
same idea a little differently, and [
Nart to give that 70 you also. This
article is headed, Which Are Your
When you read it I want you to answer
tne question for yourself, and l would
be slad TO nave some of the answers
sent to me. And then l had another
idea expressed in some quotation
which ! made, thai the man who thinks
stands alone. or words to that eff ect.
You know. it is a queer thing to me, or
think so, I an gettins so that mem
ory does not seem to be as good as it
used to be. I am afraid that l am get
ting to be little like 2Lr. Jiggs in
bringing Up Father There are
three things I can't remember, and
have forgotten what the third is. l am
afraid that it is e,idence that l am not
as young as | once was. In fact. not
as young as-well, there is a fine op-
portunity in this day for young peo-
pie, and sometimes | wish l had lived
away back yonder before the war, and
then sometimes Heel that would just
like to be about sweet sixteen now,
and that if l was, l would turn things
wrong side up, or upside down, and 10
great things before I reached my four
score and ten, or even before I reach
ed three score and ten. But I have
wandered away off from the subject, or
at least, what I started out to do
Well here is the prose poem:
