A dead" paper is hinderancc TO

INDUSTRIAL NEWS BUREAU
THE MANUFACTURER

The lumber mills of the northwest
have been going through a heart
breaking period of falling prices and
upset trade conditions due to various
different causes. In spite of the 40
per cent drop in lumber prices build
ing is at a low point.
Lumber has taken its loss almost
at one gulp and while the treatment
was drastic it will cause the industry
to be one Of the first to recover from
wartime conditions.
An officer of one of the largest
northwest mills which has just closed,
in discussing the situation said:
"There isn't any lumber business at
present. We have closed to repair our
mill, put in new boilers and machinery
and be in position when the building
season opens to take care of what /
believe will be the greatest building
boom this country has ever seen.
There is absolutely no occasion for
hard times as the elements which
cause hard times are lacking. There
is no over production or no over built
condition, in fact stocks of goods
were never lower and never did the
country need so much repair work on
everything from hen house to sky
scraper. The. condition is the same
the world over, things have been let
go for five years while the tearing
down process of nature has been
steady. The freight rate question
will have TO be worked out in an in
telligent manner for the railroads
need our business as much as we need
their transportation. Prices and wages
are rapidy'reaching a new level. Bus
mess has been bent but not broken and
it is coming back with a rebound
stronger than ever and the wise bus
iness man will prepare now to take
advantage of it."
This mans advice is good. He has
made success for thirty years as
logger and lumberman and he is plan
ming to do more business than ever.
His practical optimism and horse
sense is needed in business today.

DENOUNCING THE
GOVERN MENT

Sometimes we people in the "prov-.
inces" get false notions Of supposedly
great doings in that beehive of hu-
manity, New York City. For in
stance, when news dispatch tells US
that "a mass meeting of 5000 persons
was held in Madison Square Garden"
we thing that something horribly i'm
portant has been pulled off.
The other day there were 5000 in
Madison Square Garden meeting held
to denounce the government for de-
porting one Martens, representing
Bolsheviki Russia and whose job over
here was to stir up civil war, if he
could. That is tie job of every Boil
shevlst in the world, as announced
specifically by Moscow.
New York City has almost, If not
quite, six millions of people. Conse-
quently there was one out of every
one thousand Of the population at
that meeting. Only 999 of each 1000
stayed away. A mass meeting in the
ordinary rural town, with that same
average, would, therefore, consist of
the magnificent attendance Of one per-
son, or at the most, two. One to pre-
side and one to move, the adoption
without second) of vigorous and
glorious resolutions denouncing the
government
Hip. hip, hooray
AS matter of fact, you can get up
a meeting at any old time in New
York City protesting against any old
thing. There's always one in a thou
sand who is against everything on
earth, under the earth, in the sea and
in heavens, and in New York they
have denounced the government with
great and similar regularity for 1872
years.

Duffy's Record
 May Be Restored

Boston, Sept. 15-The record of 9 3-5 seconds for 100 yards made by Arthur Duffy of George town University, at the IntercoI- legiate championship games in 1902, which stood at the amateur record for the time and distance until it was expunged in 1905, may be restored to the official books. The registration commit tee of the New England A.A.U. to which the national body re- ferred for investigation a pro- poSal to put 1t back will hold a special meeting tonight to act on the matter. It has already held one meeting, at which the facts were reviewed and further evidence called Cor. This has been obtained, it was said. and Duffy today expressed belief that recommendation would be made for restoration of his re- cord.
 After a racing tour of Eng land, continental Europe. South Africa and Australia, Duffy was charged in 1905 with having ad- mitted professionalism in a series of articles which appeared under fense now being made is an affi- davtt purpOrtinS to be that of Bernar McFadden to the effect that it was he who wrote the articles, not Duny.

PRIACE-JOHNS0N
 60 EXCITES SPORTS

What looks to be one of the best boxing matches around these dig gings in quite a while will be the meeting of Leo Johnson, the clever colored mitt Slinger of the Acorns, and Billy Prince, Park City's premier featherweight. Leo and Billy will hook up at the Armory A. A. Monday night, Sept. 26, in one of the star four-rounders.
 Prince, who has eliminated prac- tically all contenders in his division, cannot rightfully claim the honors without first whipping the clever dusky (Johnson being about the only feather in the city whom Prince has not beaten). As Prince and Johnson have not met before. and Johnson is now going at a right fast clip. great interest is attached to this bout.
 Another bout that ought to prove a hummer is the final and star bout between Pete Dunn, the promising g local lightweight and Young Angelo, the Stamford bearcat- Dunn, who really is a great fighter, failed to ex- hibit his real worth in the bout with Ted Coy at the Arena several weeks ago, as it is very well known that the breaking of his right hand in the second round initiated to his best qualities. Dunn, who trains daily at the Y. M. c. A., is now in wonderful shape and expects to put up the best fight of his career against a fighter of Ange1o's calibre.
 Joe Flynn is the matchmaker. Terry Lee will act as referee and Jack McGee as announcer.

This Owens gent, however, will prove no soft picking for the clever Hebrew from the Me tropolis, as the two have met twice previously and the results were very much even-

P1eines. whose career covers about a half dozen years, has decisions over such boys as Chick Brown, Mickey Dance. Tracey Fer guson and the like. is expected to subject the Hartford batt1er to his first defeat in quite some time, as the latter has been coming at a right fast clip of late.
 Two four-rounders between Willie Shugrue, likely looking brother of Joe, and Spike Marino and Kid Proto and Young Goldie are also carded-

"In the long run I think it will clean up the bad features of the sport,'' said Burdick- 'sThe only way to keep boxing on the level and protecting the public from interruptions pro motors, fight managers. boxers. etc, is to have the sport regulated by law; the new law is the best thing that could happen for the sport in Connecticut, and it will succeed If properly supervised" added MT.

 Men who know the game should be appointed to supervise the sport, MT. Burdtck contended- He said the appointment of Tom O'Rourke as chief of boxing in New York state was an excellent move.
