CLASS PREJUDICE.

'"The notorious organization called
the Industrial Workers of the World
has for its well known purpose the
revolutionary destruction of our po-
Iitical institutions. Another movement
of somewhat similar kind is that of
Socialism. Many of its leaders are
closely agilated with the !. w. w. or
Plantations. A third movement, whose
leaders are closely connected with both
the l. W. w. and the Socialists, is the
Non partisan league. Built up through
an appeal to class prejudice, it plans to
put into effect governmental owner
ship and other Socialistic theories.
Several hundred thousand farmers
and laborers have been deceived into
joining this institution, whose organi-
cation work is now being carried on in

Now They Are Playing
Base Ball in Germany

New York, July Snow that the
summer is really with US and young
mems fancies are engrossed in
thoughts of big league base ball in
stead of the gentle art of man-killing
which was somewhat in vogue about
year ago, it is only natural that
the American lads in Germany are
whaling the daylight out of base
balls around Germany lots these
days.
When the 10th field artillery
moved up to Kruft, K. of c. Secre-
tary David Henneberry Of Joliet,
ILL.,, hiked along with it and brought
along a wagonload of base balls,
bats, gloves, masks and all the other
paraphernalia of Americas most
popular game. And so it is every
day the amazed people Of Kruft see
strange formation of nine men on
a diamond, one hurting a ball with
terrific speed in the direction of
another; man banging a thrown
ball with strange failure to miss it.,
and all the other sights of base ball
that astound the unacquainted.
Secretary Henneberry says the
Germans now like the game, and

Fred Fulton on Ocean
Bound for France to
Win Foreign Titles

New York, July l2cFred Fulton,
who was regarded as Jess Wizards
nearest rival until he ran into Jack
Dempsey last July at Harrison, N.
J., and was fattened in less than a
minute, is on the ocean bound for
Europe, accompanied by Tom
O'Rourke, who is now steering his
pugilistic bark. They will stay in
France for while before leaving for
London, where O'Rourke expects to
launch the big plasterer on a pugil-
istic campaign which will annex for
him the French, English and Irish
championships. Jim Coffey is in Ire
land and without the advice and
guidance of his manager, Billy Glib
son, may be cajoled into meeting
Fulton. There would be money in
it for Big James.
O'Rourke has serious designs on
Carpenters pugilistic holdings and
the heavyweight honors of England,
which seem to lie between Goddard
and Becker. Then as a side issue,
there is Bombardier Wells, who
never tries of being beaten.
O'Rourke's program sounds fine.
If he can see it through to a Sue
cessful finish, he says, he will be in
position to come back and demand
chance at Willard.

stated at Toledo that he would
probably meet the winner of the To-
ledo mill, sometime in the fall.
1t is unlikely that Moran would
give Dempsey any great amount of
trouble, but he is of the opinion that
he can give Jack a harder tussle than
Willad and perhaps beat him. Moran
was decisively beaten by Willard in
New York, but he declares that Will
1ard's strength and height were the
main factors in that bout and caused
his downfall. He points out that he
was not foored in that bout and was
fighting strong at the end. On this
account, he figures that he has
chance with Dempsey, because the
new champion is not any bigger
than he is and could be reached so
much easier.
1t is my opinion that Champion
Dempsey would have no greater
trouble in disposing of Moran than
Willard had; in fact, would prob
ably do the job up easier and heater
than did Willard. There is no 9TH
er big man on this side of the big
drink that would have any sort of
show with Dempsey and followers
of the mitt game must look to the
old world for a contender. Georges
Carpenter was judged as a likely
aspirant before the war, but now
that the world is at peace, it is I'M
likely that Georges could get a
place among the near champions.
Americans returning from the
other side say that Carpenter is no
longer a great fighter. He is fat
and heavy, too big to get in any
thing like his old-time form. His
ability has stopped backward due
to his long inactivity and they say
it is doubtful that he can beat the
English champion. Joe Beckett. 1t
appears that Beckett is matched to
meet the Frenchman in the near
future and the winner will be asked
to meet Dempsey.
The English champion is a man
built greatly on the lines of the
worlds title holder. He weighs
about 200 pounds and is reported to
be fast and clever with great

AUTO SALESMAN
Gets CONTRACT
after AIR RIDE
Unique Method Of Selling and
Advertising Machines Is
Adopted by J. T. Stewart
Motor Co.

A unique method of securing con-
tracts with dealers was inaugurated
Saturday by the ]. T. Stewart Mo-
tor company. B. H. Sahlers, sales
man for the company, visited a pros
pective dealer in Fremont making
the trip in an airplane. The air
plane left Omaha at 8 o'clock in
the morning and reached Fremont
70 minutes later. The return trip
was made in p minutes.
At Fremont Mr.. Sahlers secured
contract from the Ideal Motor
company, to handle Bethlehem
trucks and Mitchell automobiles
The contract was signed on the tail
of the airplane.
This method of getting in touch
with the dealer shuts out all COM

cording to Mr.. Sahlers. He says it
is also a unique method of advertis-
ing and that scarcely man, woman
or child in Fremont is unaware that

Since Jack Dempsey won the
worlds heavyweight crown from
Jess Willard at Toledo, July 4, the
sporting world is watching him
anxiously and laying highly sensi-
tized ear to the ground, listening for
word of his near future actions.
Besides winning the title, Dempsey
set some new records for world S
champion. He is the youngest
heavyweight title holder we have
ever had, probably hits harder than
any that ever wore the crown and
won the championship in the short
est championship battle in the
heavyweight division, ever staged.
Prior to this, Jim Jeffries' H.
round victory over Bob Fitzsim-
mons was the shortest title bout
and at the time, Jeff was the
champion, so did not win the title,
even in that time. More than this,
Dempsey is the only champion that
ever won the title, when apparently
outclassed in weight, height and
reach. Willard lowered over him,
outweighed him sixty pounds and
had a reach five inches longer.
With this great handicap, Jacks
victory is considered all the greater.
Before the history making en-
counter with Willard, Dempsey and
his manager, Jack Kearns, stated re-
peatedly that he would be a real
fighting champion, that he would
meet heavyweights as fast as they
on the horizon as aspir-
ants for the title. At present, there
is only one man in America that has
the temerity to challenge for a title
bout and it is likely that he is wary
enough to sheer off, at that. Frank
Moran is the only heavy of promi-
nence in America who has not vet
met Dempsey in the ring and he

for his appearance on the American
stage and in future bouts. He is a

ISM boosters, can hit as hard as any
man living. He will surely be .
cuckoo if he can hit as hard as Jack
Dempsey.
=. Like Dempsey, Beckett likes to
fight and can assimilate a great
amount of punishment. And like
Fitzslmmons he has a habit Of
winning, after his opponent has
been handing him an unmercifui
beating. Should it so happen that
Moran and Dempsey are not
matched, the next big bout will in
all likelyhood be between Dempsey
and Beckett. No such purse as was
hung up for Willard and Dempsey
will be offered for such a bout, but
enough could be offered Beckett to
make it more than worth his while
to make the trip to this country for
Championship bout with Dempsey.
If Beckett should prove as won
derful a fighter as is claimed for
him, it would make a great bout.
Two hard hitters, each of the SLAM
bang type, taking one to land one,
would make bout that might be
greater than the July Fourth mill.
Nearly everyone that saw Dempsey
win the title would want to see him
defend it and a great host Of
English sportsfnen would make the
trip over here to see their champ

The construction of "Pershing

New York Base Ball
Scribe Says Western
Clubs Best in Circuits

New York, July IA base ball
scribe here says: Strangely enough,
save for the two New York clubs,
the Giants and Yankees, the
strength of both the National and
American leagues appears to be in
the west this year. Both New York
clubs are showing the way at pres
ent, but the other three places in
the first divisions are occupied by
teams of the west.
This condition, too, does not ap-
pear to be temporary one. In
my Judgment it will prevail until
the seasons close.
The Boston Red Sox is the only
eastern team in either major league
except the New York clubs that ap-
pears to have chance for a first
division berth. There is a possibil-
ity that Ed Barrow can pull the
worlds champions together enough
to keep out of the ignominy of the
second division.
Verify. westward the course of
base ball SUPREMACY takes its way!

AMATEURS FORM
CLASS CLEACUE
LATE IN SEASON
To Play After Regular Season
Is Finished; Omaha Enters
Midwest Amateur
Association.

With the closing of the regular
playing schedule in the class c and
B leagues, now affiliated with the
Municipal Amateur Baseball asso-
citation in three weeks from today,
plans are now underway for the
formation of four or five leagues Of
class c and B caliber, according to
Secretary J. J. Issacson.
These leagues will be formed
within the next week or so and will
be open to any team in the city, ex-
cept those teams who have won the
remnants in their respective leagues
during the regular playing season.
According to Issacson these
leagues will not start their season
until after the conclusion of the reg
ular playing schedule by the Muny
leaguers. Each league formed will
play regular scheduled games. The
leagues will be limited to six teams
each. Thus the teams will be able
to two rounds of games before the
baseball season ends.
No prizes will be given the vim
ners in the late season leagues and
the result of their pennant flights
will have no bearing on the city
championship. The purpose Of Or
ganizing these leagues is to MAIN
tain interest in amateur baseball un-
til fall. -
The teams entering these leagues
will play under the jurisdiction of
the Municipal Amateur Baseball as
ISOLATION.
Plans for the distinction between
class c, and B will be discussed at
the next meeting of the Municipal
Amateur Baseball ciation, which
will probably be held this week.
Secretary Issacson announced
last week that Omaha will enter the
Midwest Amateur Baseball asso-
citation, since the National Fedora
ton consists of all eastern cities,
while the Midwest is composed oil
St. Paul. Minneapolis, Duluth and
other western cities.
Omaha followers will probably
have the opportunity to see some
of the crack western teams in ac-
ton here, although the officials OF
the Western association have not
yet drawn up their schedule, but
expect to do so within a few weeks.
lssacson will probably attend the
meeting OF the western moguls.
