NEW JERSEY BLUES

It seems improbable that the organ ized reformers who are seeking to prove that the law was violated at Jersey City will get anywhere in their appeals to Jersey peace officers, judges or the state legislature.
 If the reformers went out to get some publicity they have succeeded, but apparently the general public has no sympathy with the effort to harass Dempsey and Carpenter by pressing far-fetched charge of assault and bat. tery
 The same gentlemen who are now engaged in banning New Jersey off cials from Governor Edwards down, and putting everybody who attended the bout in the criminal class. have long been known for their activities against sporting privileges desired by the masses.
 pr. Wilbur F. Crafts, who resides in Washington, was one of the leaders in the fight against the New York Sun day baseball bill at Albany two years ago. Others who now support him in the attack on boxing in New Jersey were active in opposing the passage of the Walker boxing bill in this state.
 During the hearings at Albany on the Sunday baseball bill the reform CTS offered many arguments which were as far-fetched as the assault and battery" thing in Jersey. One expert attempted to prove that crowds attending Sunday ball games indicat- ed the moral and physical decline of the nation.
 He exhibited charts to show that the

Windjammers Race
 From South America
(By International News Seryicel


 SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 1. - Two races between two fleets of windjam- mers terminated at this port recently, recalling the olden days of sailing competition on the high seas. The barkentine Alicia Haviside with her arrival here, captured the laurels in the sailing contest from west coast ports of South America. She easily outdistanced her sister barkentines, the Katherine Mackall and the Phyllis Comyn.
 In the other contest the schooner Meteor made the best time in the run up from the South Sea islands, mak- ing port first and beating the time of the Lottie Bennett and the James Tuft. By strange coincidence neither of the three craft saw the others on the long passage until just off this port.
 The Alicia Haviside was not scheduled to come into this port. She was due off the lightship for orders and was instructed to proceed to Bel lingham. Washington. Captain Han son, of the Alicia Haviside, however, because of a shortage of provisions, came into the harbor.

BETTER LAY OFF THIS MATCH

There IS no confirmation of reports Willis at Jersey City. While this would be an affair between two black men and ordinarily would pass un- noticed. an attempt to stage it un- der existing conditions would be an lll-advised action.
 The reformers are raking the New Jersey officials with their heavy guns, and while they probably will not sue ceed in proving anything that hap pened in Jersey City was contrary to the law, still they have made a target of boxing. and promoters should be careful.
 Johnson has been released from a federal prison. For years he was a fugitive from justice He ran, instead of remaining to fight a charge he claims was q perversion of justice, After wandering over the face of the earth he came back and took his medi. cine
 Jack Johnson himself is a harmless sort of person But he typifies in pugilisr, the very opposite to Georges Carpenter, who is even now a target for the reformers.
 It will be a grave mistake If the for mer champion is matched to fight any good man in New Jersey within few weeks after his release from prison. We cannot conceive of any promoter putting on this match. Probably the story has no foundation in fact.
