Dear Sir: For fear that ] may
cause the meek and modest Mr.
Steven 70 launch another delicate
epistle extol.ing the virtues Of sport
ing writer's. the Irish, the Irish
Americans and nationalities In gen
eral, permit ne 10 state that / did
not witness the fight upon which
fact should congratulate myself
for being spared the humiliation OF
becoming "demoral.zed and brutal
ized"-but, pity It's, It's true such
IS not the case. FOR felt my disap-
pointment keenly az not being able
20 attend the festivities.
For the sake OF argument, let Us
admit that you did favor Frank
Moran. Was there anything startling
IN the record OF jess Willard, barr
ing. OF course. his knockout over
Jack johnson and the fact that he
was champion, that warranted any
one believing that Moran did not
have az least an even chance with
tho "Nar Mountain? I have done
the next best thing I went 20 see
the pictures. and was amazed az the
enormous height and bulk Of the
champion. ln my humble opinion,
were 10 not for his size and wonder
ful ability 20 withstand punishment,
he. and not Moran. would have taken
the count around the seventh
round" a. willard predicted would
be Franks fate. in an interview the
afternoon Of the night.
That Ioran was outpointed IS WIN,
out question. but as 20 that good
beating" cannot see II. His ex-
b,bition of gameuess and determins-
ZION 70 try in the face Of the pnysi-
cal odds against him are TO be COM
menied, and, everything considered
his injuries were triAlng, a. was evil
denced IN the seventh round Al all
events. lie won my bet for me, FOR as
good as willard proved himself TO
be. he fell far short Of being good
enough 20 put the irish Play Boy

Of Very Sincerely Yours,
Il. +. MKINLEY.

" must be trying on you editors 20
have 20 deal with such ignoramuses
as 7. r. Steven. However, no one
with a scrap Of Irish pride IN his
makeup could swallow that letter
without g comeback, so decided
TO answer i.
In tie first place, Steven states
that Moran was made q monkey Of by
Willard. 7 guess he is forgetting
that evcntful seventh round, when
Frank all but dropped the big farm
or. He is also forgetting that, only
for Moran's srgressiveness, there
would have been no fight ~ all. II
Frank had waited for Willard 20
start he would have "rotted IN his
shoes" Willard couldn't hurt Mo-
ran. He broke his arm on Frank
Jaw. Any one who knows the fight
game AZ an knows that Moran's style
Is "watchful waiting" Yet when he
goes out OF mis- own style 20 tgnt q
man bigger and stronger and gets
the worst Of few rounds he gets no
credit for II. Very truly yours,
Y. /. II.

believing IN Frank Moran and accus-
ing US Of pro-Irish leanings OF VIII
we are guilty in the first degree, We
have received a few dozen letters
replying 20 the gentleman. Some Of
the correspondents want 20 reply by
letter and some with fve-ounce
gloves. The latter We refer 90 the
Boxing Commission. Here are a few
excerpts from letters by the former:
Dear Sir: l have read +. R.
Stevens letter in your issue Of tho
Goth with feelings of both disgust
and pity. The man is evidently a
sorehead, and probably he lost some
money on Moran. At any rate, hope
you will communicate my most pro-
found contempt for him and his let-
ter. What the man does not know
about ireland and the Irish would I'll

By ". o. MCCLELLAN.

WAS welsh's defeat by Benny
w Leonard due 20 deterioration
on the part Of the champion or solely
20 the proves Of the contender!
In our opinion the defeat Is due
simply 20 the fact that Leonard -
the better boxer-a better boxer than
Welsh ever was. The champion was
In superb condition for this fight. BE
was at the height OF his power and
not a. all on the decline. He ex-
pected 20 beat Leonard easily and
told his friends so. He put up one
OF the hardest Sights Of his life; but
he found himself up against q better
man.
It Is not always true that cham
pion loses simply because he IS on
the down grade, but IL is always the
popular notion that when one falls II
is due 20 his going back"
Battling Nelson was e. his best
when Ad WolCast tore into him and
bested him for the lightweight title
az his own style OF fighting Nelson
had laid out his usual campaign-to
take all that the other man would
give and then get him when he tired.
But he ran into lad who would not
tire and who gave him such beating
that even the Durable Dane, his face
a mass OF bruises and eyes blinded
with Bullets, was forced 20 acknowl-
edge defeat.
Welsh had all his vigor last Fri
day night, and the advantage Of
long ring experience. His hackers
were satisfied that he was at his best,
and there is nothing 20 indicate that
he was not.
Blu: along came the younger man
with something new-something su-
perior 20 everything that Welsh had
acquired and the veteran looked
foolish.
Leonard certainly was coming in
that fight. But Welsh was not slip
ping. lie was being bumped out y
the way by better man.

NORTH DAKOTA ELECTED
WILSON,, SURE, BUT WHO
CARRIED THE STATE FOR HIM

Grand Forks, N. D., Nov. 13.-Who
elected Woodrow Wilson for a second
term?
North Dakota says she did.
Ohio says; "Blame it on me-"
California insists that as her votes
were the last to be counted for him the
credit is due to the golden state-and
there are others.
All right, we'll say North Dakota
turned the trick by the shifting Of less
than a thousand votes from the repub-
lican column of normal times to the
Wilson column of 1916.
The question then comes who did it
for North Dakota.
| And when you ask that question
you should have convenient tree to
dodge behind.
Just ask the next democrat you see,
and if he doesn't insist that without
him the state couldn't possibly have
been swung into the democratic col
umn it will be because he forgot to
vote
"Who put it across" democrat was
asked-in the presence Of six other
democrats.
"Why, l did, of coursce," he replied
and six others chorused-"I did"

quite certain that several western
states would 60 to Hughes. But
Hughes could easily have been elected
had the leaders been able to read the
minds Of the people Of the west. Out
in the west the voters were saying
very little, but they evidently were do"
ing lot of independent thinking.
When Hughes came to North Dakota
early in the campaign, on his tour Of
the west, he attacked the policies of
Wilson, but did not offer any remedy.
He did what many would call consid-
cradle knocking" and the west does
not take to attacks Of that nature.
Had Hughes passed up Wilson's atti-
tude on the relations with Germany
and Mexico and paid more attention to
pork barrel legislation, he would have
carried some Of the western states
which would have elected him. All
this is now very plain to the republi-
can leaders but at the time they were
too dense to know it.

The Nonpartisan Leaguers did a
pretty fair job in trimming the Samp-
son locks of Big Biz in North Dakota.
Here's hoping the farmer will follow
up the advantage he has gained by en-
acting laws that will enable his class
to develop this industry to its fullest
extent. What we need the most is to
manufacture what we raise into the
finished product right in the state, CIV
ing our people employment and divid-
ing the profits among the people who
produce the goods. North Dakotans
have grown weary of brownstone man
sions for Twin City millionaires and
we don't blame them.
The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1916-11-16

Of course President Wilson will
sooner or later be appraised of the fact
that North Dakota is in the democratic
column.
There's John Burke, U. S. treas
urer; there's Fred Mclean, state chair
man; there's H. H. Perry, national
committeeman; there's S. J. Doyle,
United States marshal; there's Melvin
Hildreth, secretary of the Wilson In
dependent league; there's D. H. Nc
Arthur, candidate for governor on the
democratic ticket; there's John Bloom
of Devils Lake; and there's E. H. STEM
wick, "the invisible boss" of Ward
county, as one astute politician termed
the blonde ex-postmaster of the Magic
City, ready to tell him just how it hap
pened-and how it couldn't have been
done if he hadn't been in the fight.
Ask any one Of them-or ask them
collectively-who carried North Da-
kota.
And, presently there'll be newspa-
H. c. Hansborough, ex-senator Of
North Dakota, who no doubt will be
claiming credit for the fact that 1000
votes swung this state into the Will
son column-and played such an i'm
portant part in the election Of the
American president for another four
years.
At any event, North Dakota federal
patronage during the coming four
year period will be served over the
same old counter-for it isn't likely
that John Burke will be disturbed from
his post as u. S. treasurer now that
Dakota was delivered to the dems
and Mr.. Burke's presence in Washing
tcn-where they do things on patron
age-makes him right handy source
of reference when the administration
finds it needs a stamp FOUNDER out at
Hickory Grove, N. d., or wants to put
U. S. marshal on the job, or a dis
trict attorney on the firing line.
Mr.. Perry of Glendale is national
committeeman, to be true, but for
some reason or other, democratic ma
tional committeeman in North Dakota
haven't much to say about things in a
patronage way during the past three
years-and the future doesn't hold
prospect for increased recognition.

Miss jeanette Rankin of Montana is
the first woman ever elected to seat
in congress. She is bright, thirty five
years of age, ready speaker and red
headed, although she is not expected
to do anything rash. She is an ardent
woman suffragist. Miss Rankin is a
sensible woman. She makes her own
hats and once demonstrated her abil-
ity in cooking by preparing meal for
fifty men in a logging camp. She will
undoubtedly give good account of
herself down at Washington.

GET INTO PRINT

No business man in any town should
allow a newspaper published in his
town to be printed without his name
and business mentioned somewhere in
its columns. This applies to all kinds
Of business, general stores, dry goods,
groceries, furniture dealers, profess
sional men and in fact all classes of
business men. This does not mean that
you should have a whole or half or
even quarter Of a page ad in every
issue of the paper, but your name and
business should be mentioned, if you
do not use more than two-line space.
A stranger picking up a newspaper
should be able to tell just what bust
ness is represented in town by look
ing at the business lineup in the paper

Two weeks before election the indie
pendent predicted that North Dakota
would 60 to Wilson. We believed it
because so many of our farmers ex-
pressed themselves as being perfectly
satisfied with conditions, not bothering
with the why's and wherefores. The
campaign is over and after all is said
and done, the president has done well
considering the many momentous
problems that have confronted him
during his first administration and the
American people have demonstrated
that he has at least pleased a major
ity. Those who did not vote for Mr..
Wilson will as usual back him up with
their true American spirit

Numerous state papers last week
published an item stating that the
yearly output of the North Dakota
flour mills would reach $4,000 barrels
for the year 1916. If this is true then
Minot stands number one as far as
-four mills are concerned, for in the
year 1915 the two mills of this city
manufactured 246,3S3 barrels, besides
21,175,29O pounds of feed. 1t is safe
to say that during the present year
our two mills will eclipse the 1915 rec.
ord, for additions have been made to
both plants, thus increasing their ca
pacity.

The election which has just ended
demonstrated that president can be
elected without the support of the east.
This is the first time in history when
the west uniting with the south elect
ed a president with the east almost
solidly against them. The republican
leaders evidently relied too much on
republican strength in the east with
out taking into consideration the dem
ocratic strength in the west. The south
has always gone democratic and it was
