Remember
Old Story of
Young David?

SEATTLE. Sept. 22-Although
Harry Anderson has about one
chance in thousand of doing any
real damage to Freddie Welsh,
worlds champion, in the big bat
tie at the Arena tonight, friends
of the Seattle boy are pointing TO
the old story of the beating that
one David slipped to Goliath, and
intimating that the same kind of a
slip-up in the dope might happen
here.
Welsh isn't worrying a bit, but
expects to extend himself In his
bout with the Seattle lightweight.
Other bouts on the bill will be:

Quit Fighting

You MANAGERS

The same argument that mas
spoiled all recent contests In the
Valley and City leagues Is threat
Aning to cause trouble over the
city championship baseball series
between the Hopkins A. G. and
6melter teams, champions OF the
respective leagues.
Each team is claiming that the
other is loading up" with play
ers who are not regular players.
Manager Fowler OF Hopkins and
Manager johnson of the Smelter
are engaging in wordy battles
these days over the eligibility OF
certain players. They can't agree
on the length of the series, either,
one of them wanting five games
and the other three.
1t Is to be hoped that the man
ayers will agree to use only their
regular teams. The practice OF
loading up" with outsiders has
hurt semi-pro ball in Tacoma this
season immeasurably.

with one team of the three con-
tenders barely hanging on In the
struggle. The Braves have been
squelched fairly well and are now
in third place.
The Red, Sox are much more

Civilization the famous Ince
spectacle, Is making as great hit
at the Tacoma theater this week
as did "The Birth of Nation"
In fact the big picture represents
a greater outlay of money and
larger amount of ingenuity than
did Griffiths' wonderful story of
the regeneration of the south.
Both pictures are we'll worth see
ing. They represent the last word
in motion picture production.
Civilization" closes it's engage
ment Saturday night.
The Melbourne theater, home
of big features, has signed Al
Jennings novel play. Beating
Back" This play tells vividly
the story of the famous outlaws
life, his penitentiary punishment,
and his final determination and
successful effort TO beat back
and become respected citizen.
This interesting film opens a
three day engagement Sunday.
Few actresses mirror their
emotions as readily as does Theda
Bara. She can be as cold and
pitiless as serpent and she can
be as sweet as a babe. In ',Her
Double Life" at the Apollo, she
has splendid opportunity to use
all her resources as an emotional
star, and she doesn't overlook, a.
bet. -
One of the big scenes Of Roll
ing Stones" at the Colonial this
week, shows the telescoping of a.
train when a switchman momen-
tarily forgets his duty. 1t is a.
thrilling picture. The play
throughout is largely comedy
with Marguerite Courtot and
Owen Moore in the big roles. Fan

1.-THE Patriot" with William s.
Hart in the lead. The play is
timely story of the Mexican bor-
der, and is one of the best plays
released by Triangle in a year.
"Pillars OF Society,"" the Ibsen
play in which Henry Withal is
starred, is making a hit at the Re-
gent this week.
"Fantomas," at the Hippo
drome, is proving a delightful
mystery. 1.-THE Mysterious Fling
err Print" this weeks feature Of
the serial, is the best ever" and
presents even NOR g battling
problem than either of the two
preceding chapters. The stories
tell of the ingenious exploits of a
master criminal, and the efforts
of brainy detective to catch him.
"Neptune's Daughter" In which
Annette Kellerman is appearing
at the Melbourne, is a beautiful
picture. The filming was done
in the tropical West Indies, many
of the pictures being taken under
water, and the Photographic work
is artistic in the extreme. Miss
Kellerman has splendid opportun-
ity in this picture to demonstrate
her art as the worlds most IA
nous swimmer and diver.

The way to bring down the price of gasoline is to make the oil
business a public business instead OF a private monopoly.
Just as long a. the oil trust al control the production and manutac-
ture OF petroleum and its products, just so long will the price of oil and
of gasoline be all that the traffic will bear.
The oil barons are doing just what you would do if you had the
chance-making the last possible dollar ut of their monopoly. That is
human nature.
The only way to curb that kind Of thing is to take the monopoly
away from the private monopoists and put it in the hands of the PEG
pie themselves.

THE SNEAK OF THE SEAS.

A correspondent of the New York Sun argues that the submarine
has shown itself to be not a new weapon of warfare, but merely "a nw
instrument OF assassination. AS an offensive weapon against warships,
except in cases of happy accident, it has proved practically worthless.
1t is itself defensless against attack and is extensively effective only
when it car approach its helpless noncompatant victim by stealth. 1t
is simply the "gunman" of the eas and its achievements rank n higher
than his crimes.
Yet call it what you will, the submarine is in the war to stay; it is
more and more becoming a feature of every navy, beligerent Or neutral
Withai, it is a military device with a minimum sense of honor or chiv-
airy. 1t is an anomaly in that it rarely if ever, fights II of its W
species. Duels between airshIps are common enough: everything is
just as open and above-board in such encounters a. it is cowardy and
vinanous in the case of a submarine hitting a splendid merchantmen
below the belt. The submarine is essentially a sneak. But however
base the business it is engaged in, it's not to be put out of commission

KEEP UP THE ROADS,.

It is only a month or two off when eastern auto-tourist travel will
begin, and from reports emanating from all sides there will be a larger
number coming this way than wei before. The Lincoln highway, from
all accounts, will be the preferred route, and as a result Carson and TINS
section of Nevada should be among the communities that will reap some
of the benefits. But, as a prerequisite, the roads should be put IN X
cenent condition; otherwise a great deal of travel will be diverted.
Automobiles a a rule are pretty independent and if roads do not come
up to a certain point somewhere nea standard they will make for another
one, and what is more they do not fail to send word back home recit-
ing the difficulties they have encountered. So, in this connection, the
roads throughout western Nevada should be put in good shape At once
and care should be taken that their standard is preserved. 1t means
much to the state.

o spend several hundreds of thousands of dollars o paving, and from
no quarter wa there a kick. But in Carson whenever paving is mentioned,
a howl goes up from certain quarters that echoes beyond the
