N'INT0SH GETS DECISION OVER
 LLOYD MADDEN
Chief of Police of Ketchikan Wins Over Former
 Champion of Coast.

Six rounds of fast boxing were witnessed at Ketchikan on the night Of July .., when Lloyd Madden, of Seattle, former lightweight champion of the Pacific Coast, lost on a refe rees decision to Lonnie Austin lightweight champion of Alaska, and the present Chief of Police of Ketch- ikan.
 There were several preliminaries and the main event was a pretty fight, according to the Ketchikan Chronicle, which says:
 Both men were going all the time and were so evenly matched that there was but little more than the majority of spectators present who agreed with the decision Mcintosh, a big minority thought, might have a slight shade the better of the fight, but it was so slight, they thought the bout should be draw. But, of course the referees decision, backed by majority of spectators, stands.
 Tn the first round Mcintosh closed Madden's left eye and throughout  kept hammering away at his head and face Madden, on the other hand was playing at all times for Mclntoshs body. In the first, third and fifth rounds Mcintosh appeared to have a slight shade the better of the argument, while the second was Maddens. The fourth and sixth rounds were about standoff.
 "The semi-windup was between Red Morris and Sparks Oliphant. They started at each other like a couple of wildcats and were going about two minutes when Morris dropped for the count of seven. He jumped up again only to go down once more. That time he stayed down but the bell saved him. He was helped to his corner and as the bell rang for the second round he was still listening to the sweet sing ing of the birds.
 "In the bout between Harry Brant and Harry Fitzgerald the latter was given the decision. The first prelim mary was between two boys"

specs" and mutter to themselves that the comet struck the United States about this time"
 Some of the achievements of the athletes are as follows:
 Duncan batted the ball over the left field fence in Cincinnati for the first time in the history of base ball.
 Ruth twice batted tile ball into the center field seats at the Polo Grounds. Men who had lived for years merely to see that feat ac- complished, did not happen to be present on either day and are so down on their luck that they have vowed never to go again. Some of them had gone 25 years and missed both shows.
 The Athletics made seven home runs in one afternoon. The Phillies hit Phil Douglas for five home runs in one game and so many of them were made after two hands were out that Douglas is looking for new ikon.

CONCERNING CITY TAXES

In the last issue of the Censor there
appeared a statement of moneys ex-
pended by the city of Viroqua. A
study of this statement reveals the
fact that the coming year the city
must meet the following obligation in
addition to normal expenses.
First Balance due on contract now
completed, $28, 942. Second Princi-
pal and interest on bonds, S12, 900;
Third Additional state Id county
tax, $10,63S.03. Fourth Additional
school tax, $s,76751. A total of $780,
342.54
This figure is one that we desire to
call the tax payers attention ton
the spirit of mutual fairness. Deduct
these figures from the tax total and
the rate would be lower this year
than last. The city council had moth
ing whatever to do with this figure
except to receive the message-and
transmit it. The first two items were
voted upon by the people of this city
several years ago and contracts were
let at that time. The other two items
are placed by law in hands other than
the city government. We are legally
bound to meet this figure-it is fully
collectable. What is the sensible
thing to do?
Over $4,000 of this years tax fig
ure is final-next years tax will be
that much less. This puts the rate
back where it was, if we clean up the
account at this time.
This statement is made that Won
may understand the difficulties of the
situation-get the view point of the
council, and judge fairly.
