Another all-star boxing card
easily equal to the last program
of the Eagles, which filled the big
e street hall to capacity three
weeks ago, will be staged tonight
by the Tacoma lodge.
A championship event, Lloyd
Madden of Seattle defending his
coast lightweight title against
frankie Sullivan of Los Angeles,
will be the headliner.
The show starts at $3.50 instead
of S:15, and fans are urged to be
in their seats early as an extraor-
binary jam OF spectators is expect
ed.
Interest among Tacomans is di-
vided between the championship
event and the bout between Joe
Richmond of South Tacoma and
Weldon tToughey) Wing of Port
land. The. Portland boy is an I'M
known quantity, so far as local
fans are concerned, although he
has a reputation as clever boxer
with a kick in either mitt. Rich
mond is one of the puzzles of the
ring. Although he works every
day at the South Tacoma shops,

Doug Fairbanks
Joins Aircraft

NEW YORK, March And
now Douglas Fairbanks will con-
tinue on his merry way unhamp-
cred by the courts. The temper
airy injunction against him has
been dismissed by the supreme
court and the famous Fairbanks
smile is more evident than ever, IL
such thing is possible.
When Doug" announced that
he would form his own company
and release through the Aircraft
Picture corporation, the company
with which he was formerly affil-
lated endeavored to restrain these
ambitions but Supreme Court JUS
tice Hotchkiss said Nay"
1t is expected that work on the
first Fairbanks-Artcraft picture
will be commenced within a few
days. The cast is now being as
sembled and arrangements have
been completed for the taking Of
the initial scenes of the picture.

back" this year after an absence
from the ring of several years, and
has proven a veritable whirlwind
as a featherweight boxer. Rich
mond is looked upon as one of the
best boxers in Tacoma today.
Jack Shaughnessy, who meets
Frank Pete OF Wilkeson, is the
boy who put up such game bat
tie against Walter Porsch at the
last Eagles show. Pete has been
training under Dan Salt of Seattle
recently, and expects to show Jack
some new things about the ring
game tonight.
The fun Of the evening should
center in the bout of Battling
Bunker, the balmy bean boy from
Seattle, and Val Comstock, rugged
athlete of this city. Bunker is a
husky specimen, even though he
doesn't know much about boxing,
and his appearance in a ring is al

the fans.

A regular army Of half million men. in

eneny-lt IS meant to keep the masses m
dustrialIy enslaTed, by the privileged classes.
Again the Supreme Court IN passing upon
the new law, would have to take into con-
sideratsos2, the practical possibilities Of such
law; not only could the poor be forced into
servitude to the rich, the blacks to the whites,
Protestants to Catholics, but, IL million of
free men can be sent abroad to<taka part in
foreign wars, what check would there be upon
President who might be willing TO COM
mercialIze the consc4lpJed labolers and sol
diers?
Power always fattens on its diet; enthroned
individuals, slavishly obeyed by conftiers and
by .Senates, have always gone further than
they first seemed to intend
1iberlus was not despot when he first
took the sceptre Ct Augustus Caesar.
Mere was wise ruler for the frs5 eight
years Of his reign.
As ell men know, Louis Napoleon took an
cath as President, swearing to support the
Constitution Of the French Republic He
broke his oath, and by criminal usalpation
made himself Emperor.
In the great struggle between popular
rights and autocratic executives, can we be
certain that We will never have President
who Will be as INSCRIPTIONS an e1ploiter Of
humanity, as was King Leopold Of Bel
gium, the good Catholic who manned and
massacred SO many negroes in his Congo Free
State and who was 50 devoutly prayed for,

It is dreadful thought, that in this con-
acription law-if allowed to stand by the SUI
prenle urt-tho President Of the United
States cannot be controlled, if he should ever
be a sufficiently bad man to hire out cur sol
diers, as mercenaries, to fight the battles of
any country that needed the help Of Hessians.
Again: the Supreme Court, in passing upon
the conscript acts, would doubtless take into
consideration the fact, that if Congress has
the unlimited power to take and forcibly use,
free citizens Of one age, it can take those Of
all ages.
