GIBBONS ON SCENE
FOR LEWIS FIGHT

New York, May 14-Mike Gibbons, the
worlds greatest middle weight, Joined
the Broadway colony today for a short
stay. Mike has an engagement with the
English welter. Ted Lewis, in Madison
Square Garden next Thursday evening
Although Gibbons came many miles to
keep this date he does not believe that
1t means as much in his young life as the
affair does to his opponent
A short talk with Gibbons brought forth
the fact, however. that he does not hold
Lewis cheaply, He expects to win as a
matter Of course, but not without con-
siderable effort. Mike Is we'll acquainted
with Teds style and looks for a busy

Mother Hubbard Finds Puss at Home.

He picked a rose and put II in his
buttonhole Underneath a window the
cellar door sloped upward just enough
for him to look in when he stood on his
'tiptoes. An old woman was standing in
front OF cupboard bare of food, and by
her side was her dog. She turned to him
and said: "Pll have to buy you some
thing to eat" and with these words she
put on her bonnet and shawl and went
out.
The dog looked up and, seeing Puss
Junior, came up to the window and said:
"Bow-wow; how do you do?'
Very well, thank you," said Puss
Junior; but do you like strangers, es-
pecially cats?"
My dear Puss," he replied, I'm an
old. old dog, and my dislike for cats
went with my youth. Are you not Puss
In Boots?"

furthermore, the absence OF Third Base
man Lobert opened gap that so far has
been unfilled-a hole into which the
Giants plunged to many a defeat.
The Giants just now are mired deeply
in the second division good. But they
viii emerge. No team carrying such bali
players as Doyle, Fisher. Merkle, Rousch,
Rariden. Tesreau. Kauff. and Burns is a
normal cellar OUTFIT. 1t has been push
ed there by misfortune. But jinxes can
not always pursue one ball club.
Probably no other ball team in the
country is watched as closely as the
Giants, no team excltes so much COM
ment But only are the Giants the cyno-
sure Of all eyes because they represent
the biggest city in America, but because
they once were the standard by which all
other teams were judged.
Beat the Giants and you'll win the
pennant." was the advice handed out in
other years by rival managers to their
players. But 1t isn't so now, although
the Giants are sporting about 1000
worth Of newly acquired baseball talent.
outside OF third base, the greatest
Giant trouble now is the pitching stan.
Up to the present moment it seems to
comprise Jetf Tesreau alone. The huge
starboard hurler is the only one who
has shown anything like winning form.
Benton. Perritt, Stroud, Schauer. Pal
nero and the others haven't anything
startling. Mathewson is a problem.
But the knockers fail to take into con-
sideratiOn the handicaps under which
McGraw is laboring. In Gotham they
want a winner-or the scalp of the man
ager. And they are out to remove Nc
Graw's hair. But their chances OF sue
ceeding are only about one in a hundred.
The Giants owners have confidence in
their fiery leader-and he'll linger long
to pilot their baseball craft.

New York Fans Are Knocking
The Giants and John McGraw

MeGraw Is losing. Therefore, certain
lolHs In his old home town have come to
reel sort OF ''unlovely'' toward him; they
nave extracted the hammers from winter
storage and are turning UP on the anvil
chorus
The miserable showing made so far by
the Giants following their tail-end efforts
OF a year ago, is being charged directly
to McGraw's fading skin as a big league
manager. a certain coterie, which is con-
stanuy recruiting new members. has
come 70 belive that the famous diamond
manager has played out his string.
And but with HIM" Is the cry that Is
ringing through Gotham.
But. IN the face Of all the criticism di-
rected at him, McGraw remains calm.
Man for man the Giants seem to meas
ure Up as the equal of any in the Tener
circuit, As a team. they appear superior
70 AZ least four teams in the National
League. Yet they lost ten out of the first
eIeVen Games this season. And the folks
blame McGraw, because they feel that
with such a team he ought to win con-
sistentIy.
Those who have analyEed the work Of
the Giants afeld during the first three
weeks Of the battling have a different
viewpoint. They do not blame McGraw
Nor have they lost confidence in the
Giants They attribute the bulk of the
Giants victories to i'll luck and to tenn
porary inconsistency,
Ihe Giants were unfortunate inasmuch
as When their pitchers were hurting air
tight baseball they failed to club behind
him; when the cIubbers were banging the
bail to all portions of the field the pitch

and she commenced to cry.
"Oh, dearie me. must go to the un-

door, leaving it ajar in her hurry.

into the kitchen. How could you be so

and looked at him with a smile.

grading depth of begging for liv- ing. The man who knows not where he will eat tomorrow isn't likely to have a very lofty moral code and will not very highly esteem the law. The reason for all this is obvious and for most crime the remedy is not the court and the jail but improved environment.
 It is absurd to think that we can recognize spontaneously right and wrong, and that what appears all right to the rich man and the well
 ed will present itself likewise :c the starving outcast.
 A Rockefeller would think twice before entering a bakery and grabb- ing on the run loaf of bread. But the man who has stood for hours in vain in the bread line will not hesitate to grab and run off with two or three loaves if he gets a chance.
 It is not reasonable to suppose that society can adopt a system where everyman's hand is against the other mar, where do your neighbor or he'll do you" is con sidered sound philosophy and the smart man is the man who gets the dollar from the other fellow in bus mess or at pay. and still expect that by punishing the criminei they can better social conditions.
 It's social improvement not the l law that lcssens crime When all arc wei! fed and work is easy and plentiful there is little crime enough i But when thar2 is scramble for ?ots and men are plentiful and work is as scarce as food, crime will be re- latively abundant
 Stevenson's real difficulty was with the fact that he could not lay the blame for crime where it more often belonged than not-on the social system. He admits as much, Day after day the same old round of charges and convictions and pc, nalties and no decrease in the mise Try and wretchedness and criminality that surrounded him.
 Stevenson knew that. He sen fenced dozens of fallen women anc dozens of them kept coming before him for sentence. He knew that what sentence he passed did not at- feet the social conditions that daily ground out it's prostitutes and slui- ced it's miseries in his court. He couldn't touch the system. He dare
 not sentence it's promoters. They
 were in broadcloth, respectable
 decent uplifting members of so'
 ciety He couldn't venture to changf
 the system. It was greater than he
 for he himself was part of it.
 Instead he so despised it's vanity
 and it so sickened him by reason oi
 it's farcical inutility, that he quit
The daily Nome industrial worker., 1916-04-08

John H. Stevenson was municipal judge in Portland, Oregon. Note the past tense. He no longer is judge. He quit. And he quit moi because his pay stopped, but because lie didn't want to get pay for the useless work which he did. He him. self told all 2bout it. He never let any one have any doubt why he re- signed. He explained it shortly but clearly to the press, and although most of the newspapers laughe l up their sleeve none dared to tackle the questions that his reason sug- scstcd.
 His opinion of the courts is nct very favorable. It's not very satls' flying, and if he weren't judge one might think him some outrageous radical who damned the whole judi cia! institutions.
 ''It merely adds to the misery oi the people who need help, he said.

They are anxious to investigate the Packers, and the Parkers, noble minded altruists, allege that al- though prices are high their profits are small.
 The country has never appreciated monopolies at their real value ana never certainly realized what phi lanthropic institutions they are. Their ideal is public service and first of all comes the satisfaction c! human needs. They are content even with small profits-nay at 8 pinch these too they will forego and real progress consists in giving these commercial institutions free hands so that their commercial lives may be long in the land.
 The public forgets that the idea at the back of consultations, amal- carnations and syndicates Is to tm- prove the service which they can giye--to better satisfy the public's needs, and to supply the consump- tive demand more effectively. That's why they sit on the carcase of the little fellow, why they black list the Seryitors of rivals, why they drive the railroads to secret rebates, why they bulldoze public officials and cor rupt judges, why they lobby in Con gress and buy senators and legi5- lators, why they banquet the solons and excursionize the jurists, why they maintain lawyers to fight law enforcement ard to acquire by trick cry, cajolery, chicanery or cheating privileges franchises and positions of power. That's why they have ri- Vals boycotted and trade antagonists ruined That's why they have gentlemen's agreement and pooling of profits. That's why they oppose the nomination of Brandcis to the Supreme Court and have a conveG tion steam rolled that their nominee may be forced upon the parties. That's why they have interlockinS directorates and why they pay starvation wages That's why thel forbid employees to organize and fight pure food bills and inspection laws and compensation acts and em- ployers' liability and industrial com missions and drive employees t" strikes and violence and force tine courts to obey them.
