in pure boxing match the chances
are that Dempsey will give him a
very good boxing lesson before he
props him into a state of coma.
They've talked Harry Wills, as an
other dangerous" foeman, a tough
citizen-Mr. Wills-quite tough.
Hits hard-and can take an ordinary
fighters pasting-and still linger
around on his ebony toesies. But if
Wills is ever tossed into the ring
with Jack Dempsey the champion
probably won't be merciful by box
ing the first round with him. He'll
probably just step forth and whale
away and parry Wills will soon be
having tensioned nightmare on the
canvass Beyond Carpenter and
Wills there seems to be no battler
who can be reckoned seriously in a
clash with Dempsey.

champion should do-prove that he

BENTON HARBOR, Mich, Sept.
The tumult and the shouting dice
but not the memory of Jack Demp.
seys easy triumph over a man who
had been ranked as the champions
most formidable rival.
Mlske didn't give Dempsey a real
workout; Miske never had a chance
from the bang of the first gong. II
was Dempsey's fight from end to
end and always the only question in.
volved was how long Miske could
stand up under the terrific punish
ment which the utah Mauler" be-
gan to deal out with the outset of
the second session.
And now with Miske's name added
at last to the list of Dempsey VIC
Tins what man lives who can be con-
, coded a chance against the super
tighter of pugilism; what man fights
today who can test Dempsey to the
utmost of his powers? What man
can test the courage, Of Dempsey by
beating him and smashing him?
What man can force him to lash out
with all the might that is in his
hands and arms, power which so far
has never been fully tapped?
For Dempsey truthfully says:
i've hit lot of hard blows in
my career, but I've never hit any
man with all that smash that it is
possible for me to put into drive
and l hope never will"
They've talked Carpenter, the
great French boxer as Dempsey
foeman. And so they are talking the
Frenchman into being slaughtered.
For, great as Carpenter may be, he
cannot be classed with Dempsey.
Those who espouse the Parisians
cause insist that his superior box
ing" ability and greater agility will
enable him to keep out of Dempsey's
way until Dempsey has tired himself.
What fallacy! For first of all
Dempsey is tireless; beyond human
conception in endurance powers and
as FOR speed-Well Dempsey made
Miske, long regarded as one of the
specifies hooters in the game look
like wooden legged circus fat man.
Turnout the entire fight of Monday
afternoon Dempsey whizzed and
Whitfield around Miske with the
speed of panther-and whenever
Miske tried to spring away from at
tack Dempsey overhauled him with
out real effort.
They thought Carpenter was
boxer-was a greater boxer than
Dempsey" Those who do that
haven't seen the new Dempsey in
action, haven't seen what amazing
boxing skill he can display whenever
the mood pleases him. Carpenter
may be a greater boxer than Miske-
but If he ever mixes it with Dempsey

said that 1t cast a very Serious re
| Election upon the officials of the
Utah-Idaho Sugar company and tha
altho all did not believe that they
had caused this suit to be brought
it was certainly up to them to fine
out who did have it done and to ex
pose him if there was any guilt. In
other words it was up to them tt
prove that they did not instigate it
Mr.. Duckworth and live side by side
and we talked the matter over across
the alley and I was glad too, that he
was present when that matter came
up in the sugar office and we were
both pretty well convinced that those
men had nothing to do with the fl
ing of the suit. He was glad l had
said what l did in the paper and
was glad that he told me what he had
witnessed, and we both went away
feeling good.
Studied Court Records
AS the federal investigation went
on digging into all these subjects
and the record was written up, /
took few days off to read a big
stack of the records. The investiga-
tion convinced me beyond the
shadow of doubt that everybody
connected with the Utah-Idaho Sugar
company's management from Mr..
Havemeyer down, helped to bring
about various deals of this kind and
this was only one of perhaps hun
dred equally underhanded and un-
fair, done to put their competitors
at disadvantage, or to absolutely
crush them. I think everybody who
sat in court and heard the testimony
on the witness stand and who has
read the letters they wrote in carry
ing out these things, and which the
government has laid before them for
Identification during the trials, every
body who has read the testimony I
think is absolutely convinced that
they were resorting to unfair means
to crush their competitors. There
is evidence that they did many things
to keep the price of beets down and
to keep the farmers nose to the
grindstone. Later I shall tell you
of circumstances indicating that they
were, equally active in keeping the
price of sugar up for the consumers
of the intermountain country and
them pay larger margin of
profit than was collected from peo-

Kicks Suit Dismissed

1t looks as II there would be. lots
OF beets this fall, plenty of politics
and plenty of progress. The whole
season up to the present time has
been extremely favorable to the beet
crop. People who have been inter-
ested In the struggle between the
Utah-1daho Sugar company and the
Beetgrowers Sugar company Of
Rigby will be pleased to learn that
Ezra Kicks, who filed the suit last
winter asking for receiver for the
Beetgrowers Sugar company, has
asked for the dismissal of the suit
The case was to come to trial on the
tenth of September and it was dis
missed on the first of September at
the request of the plaintiffs attorney
P. T. O'Malley. Just to show you
how beautifully some people deceive
their friends I want to tell you a
little circumstance.
When that suit was filed last win
ter people instantly suspected that
the officials of the Utah-Idaho Sugar
company were at the bottom of it.
An article appeared in the morning
edition of the Salt Lake Tribune
telling about it and up to that time
/ did not believe that the Utah-Idaho
Sugar company would stoop to such
tactics. Neither did my friend and
neighbor Mr.. James +. Duckworth,
president of the Blackfoot stake. He
and l do not always agree Or every
thing, but there were matters In
which he hold about the same views.
Now, it just happened that Mr.. Duck
worth was in the office of the Utah
Idaho Sugar company talking with
two or three of the leading men
when another one of the sugar crowd
came in with the morning paper in
his hand and pointing to an article
regarding the suit and the receiver
ship asked for by Ezra Kicks, he said
to them, "Did you see this?" They
glanced over the article to see what
1t was about and all of them showed
genuine surprise. Mr.. Duckworth
felt very fortunate in being present
when this matter came up. Their
surprise was so genuine that he was
convinced that they had nothing to
do with it whatever. When Mr..
Duckworth got back home there was
an editorial in my own newspaper
in which went over the matter and

ISOLATION does all it can to give the
manufacturers and refineries of
sugar the advantage. They even get
their own men appointed to depart
ments and positions whereby they
can use the government facilities
and the government money for maxi
ing Investigations and spreading
propaganda among the people to
save paying it out Of their own
treasury. OF course, every member
of the association including the
Utah-Idaho Sugar company shares in
this guilt.

movement to get their money out of
the sugar they held in storage.
That Fruit Of Yours
The fruit season came on and
there was not the big demand for
sugar that had been expected. People
were goaded to other means of put
ting up fruit and the government
issued circulars informing millions
of people how to can fruit or pre-
serve fruit without using the amount
they had been accustomed to use, so
there was another heavy falling off
or disappointment in the consump-
tion of sugar. 1t had been expected
that there would be difficulty in Sc
curing delivery of sugar owing to
congested conditions and there was
a happy disappointment in that.
People could get delivery better than
was expected. All these things COM
bined to make sugar conditions
easier than had been expected and
people began to estimate matters to
find out how great shortage there
would be at the close Of the season
just before the sugar factories be-
gan to deliver the new crop. Then
IL was found that there would not
be, any shortage at all, but there
would be about half million tons of
old sugar carried over when the new
crop began to be delivered. The re-
suit was that an immense amount
was offered on the market. The
great store houses opened up and
their stock for sale and the well-to-
do people who had that extra sack
set away offered to split it with
their neighbors SO that neither they
nor their neighbors were going to
the grocer to buy sugar as was usual
All Of these things combined to
make great slump in the price Of |
sugar, and slump we have.

Sugar company is guilty Of, I am
