HARRISON BROWN ACCUSES
FRY OF GERMAN SYMPATHIE,

FRY OF GERMAN SYMPATHIES
COLORADO SPRINGS, August
Ia. - Dear Mitchell: Who ever put
it into your head to go back East
for a vacation this year? IT.
bet you read a lot Of "slick Eastern
advertising" and then went down and
bought a ticket all the way to New
York. And you W. stopped a min
ute to think about infantile paraly-
sis - let alone Man Eating Sharks.
see in the Ledger where Mr.. Dea-
con Fry also took a "ehance" and
went to Baltimore. Recently, ] met
la friend Of Deacon's out here and HE
said that he felt positive Fry was
mixed up with that Deutschland cpl
sode. He even went so far as to say
that he thought his old friend Fry
probably was after a job representing
the Kaiser here in the U. S.
Still l contend that both of you
should have come West. There's less
danger. And the only thing "catch-
ling" is laziness. And neither n Of
you could "catch" that - you're too
industrious. mo, thanks, l do not
smokey
But the point is this: Freddie
Welsh and Charlie White, of Chica-
go, are going to meet in a twenty
round decision fight here for the
lightweight championship of the
world on Labor Day. That's the
time you all should have had that
vacation.
So II you don't feel that you can
come all the way out here for twen-
ty rounds of perfectly good fighting,
just tell any of the "home boys" who
intend to be among those present,
that | will be glad to line them up a
ticket. Address, Care of the Clock
ner" Missouri" Cabin, Colorado
ISprings, Colo. That will find me.
And you'll like a visit here in the
Springs, too. It's very Missouri-like.
In fact, one would think he was in
Missouri. I've actually met TWO
people who were born here in the
Springs. They are very proud of it,
though. For it is a rare distinction
to be n in a thousand = no matter
what the thousand is.
In a way the town is a lot like
Mexico. Of course, they don't have
the many pretty horses. or any manu-
featuring plants - nope, not ever
the beautiful women we have. But
they have good schools, fine and wide
ly advertised colleges, modern stores
and REAL merchants. In fact, one
can live just as happily here as in
Mexico - that is, he could If old
zip" Williams would put up a Crown
Laundry here. A man does get
very Cranky" about his laundry -
and there are no Crown Laundries
here.
There goes the dinner bell - and
as | only eat five times a day out
here, I feel it my humble duty to am
swer the call. Of course, when a lad
weighs 1863 lbs. and he's only sup
posed to weigh about $50, some peo-
pie would say three times a day would
be often enough to eat.
But l can't see it that way.
Luck to you - any you had better
come out to the fight.
Sincerely, Brownie.

HUGHES HELPS DEMOCRATS
WITH SPEECHES, SAYS READ

Wilson is the greatest Democrat
of America since Jefferson" said Opie
Read, in an interview Friday morning
Mr.. Read is a member of the
Authors League of America, an or
ganization which has, through the
newspapers, asked some embarrass-
ing questions of Candidate Hughes.
"Do you think Mr.. Hughes will
eventually answer these questions in
his campaign speeches." Mr.. Read
was asked.
"No; / do not" was his reply. "He
has never answered anything in his
campaign; as he says, there is no hot
air in me-
"Much criticism has been aimed at
Wilson for his coolness," he contin-
ued. "But what are we to expect Of
our President? He has said that a
President cannot afford to have
friends, which means the President
cannot afford to have ~favorites; he
must deal justly with all.
although President Wilson has
never been a lawyer, he knows more OF
international law than any man in
America today. He knows more of
the relation between state and nation.
He is far-sighted. His dealing with
Mexico shows that he can see farther
into the future than those who crit
icise him. We had no cause to declare
war on Mexico. We could no more
declare war against that country for
Villas action than another country
could have Justly declared war against
the United States for the action Of
Jesse James.
"Those who deserted Wilson in his
hour of need when he was striving 10
keep this country out of war with
, Mexico, those who tried, by criticism
. to overthrow him in his time of adver-
: sity, are little better than revolution
lists"
Opie Read lectured this Afternoon
e at the Chautauqua giving impersona
Z. tions of one of his quaint characters
Old Linn Jucklin. When asked If thi'
character wa taken from some indi'
: vidual he had known, he replied:
"No; that character just come GU
a of the atmosphere. The best charac'
tiers are not drawn from life; they are
like a composite photograph. Whe'
| go to a town the people tell me W.
8 have a character here but it is a mis-
t take. That person has very littl'
originality about him. He has seer
!, many things and tells of them, bu
0 what he has seen has been seen b,
e many others. Once in a great whit
: an unlettered man is found who is abb
to draw vague deductions from VIVA
he has seen, but an u~neducated geniu'
a is a very rare thing"
