as those done by hand, the process
being done by small rubber rollers
which roll the tomato ever and over
until the skin is rubbed off. The to-

into a huge profiteering grab. Short

shipping men and unbiased marine

the amount OF space they would take
up at the loading and unloading
terminals they were a hindrance

In addition to this the state is to
adopt the policy Of a fifty per cent
valuation in the assessment of prop

.rNAToR PEPPER WARNS
IIe AGAINST THOU0HTLESS
RIDICuIlE OF THE SENATE

..The substantial people of the
coun4ry would do well to heed the
earning voiced by Senator Pepper. OF
Pa~nnsylyaniA, against thoughtless
ndIcuie Of the senate" declares the
Republican Publicity Association.
"Pepper has been in the senate but
a short time, and cannot be suspected
Of having any prejudices In its a v
or such as might be acquired after
long service. He went to the senate
BY appointment, which appointment
was universally approved. He was
recently reelected practically with
out opposition. He has no personal
interest in preventing criticism OF the
senate.
ut must be apparent to any
thoughtful person that there are
some thousands of people of various
degrees of radicalism who would like
to overthrow or hamper our system
of government. They lose no oppor-
tunity to create a prejudice against
It.. They select the senate as one OF
their most frequent objects OF attack,
for the reason that it was formerly
looked upon as a rich mans legisla-
tive body and put out of touch with
the welfare Of the people. The reds
whatever their degree Of redness, are
always denouncing the senate. When
substantial citizens voice similar sent
iments, they are uniting their in
fluence with the forces Of radicalism
-oy confidence in s-c"c->--ect
and when that has been accom-
plished, chaos will follow.
This is not the way Senator Pep
per says it, but 1t is the truth and
probably what he had in mind. II
any Individual senator has done or
failed to do anything of Importance
that merits criticism. 1t is not only
the right but the duty of free Amer
lean citizens to express their opinions
thereon. But condemnation OF
specific acts of commission or omis-
sion is one thing and a general de-
nunciation of one of the constitu-
'tional branches of the government Is
entirely another. To secure h de-
feat of an unsatisfactory incumbent
is entirely proper - to destroy pub
JIG respect for a branch OF the
government is not only improper but
is bordering upon teaching anarchy
"There could be nc more disturb
ing spectacle than to see the good
people OF the country join with the
bad and vicious in undermining oul
government"

BOOrde Wins OUer
LaUeLL in Main Go
at Harrison ShOLU
Southern Boxer ShOLUS Clever
Stuff in VictOry-DiLLOn
Defeats Nelson.
BY HEZE CLARK.

Showing a cleverness on defense that
was battling and an ability to jab his op-
ponent continually in each Of the ten
rounds Of fighting, Freddie BoOrde Of
Birmingham Ala, won a decision over
Louis Lavell OF Anderson, Ind, at the
Ft. Benjamin Harrison boxing show last
night. 1t was great battle between the
fast lightweights and there was not an
idle moment during the ten rounds Of
fighting.
Boore's ability to escape the swings and
jabs of Laveu was due to his ring gen
eralship and his speed at sidestepping
and ducking. Lavell never stopped try
ing and less clever man than the South
ern lightweight would have been whipped
by the Anderson whirlwind, for Lavell
Boorde started fast and his series Of jabs
to his opponents face seemed to worry
LaVelL BOorde had q shade in each of
the first three rounds.
Lavell opened up and outfought orde
In the fourth round. Boorde came back
strong in the fifth round. However, La
veil met him at every turn and the fifth
round was draw. Boorde had @ shade
in the sixth. 1t was in the seventh that
Boorde showed his speed. He outfought
LaYell from the start to the finish.
After Laven was completely outfought
IN the seventh round he came Lack like a
wild cat in the eighth round. Both boys
opened up and 1t was the best round OF
the Q&UL. 1t was uEdW. DOOLue udQ Il
shade the best OF the ninth round and
the two boxers seemed tired In the tenth.
Boorde outpointed his opponent In six
OF the ten rounds, three rounds We're a
draw, while Laven had the better Of the
fourth round.
Seldom have the boxing fans of In
dianapolis had a better example of pluck
and gameness than that given by Mickey
Nelson in his scheduled eight-round semi
wind up bout with Joe Dillon. The
hnEg NpAiWhnn In a ll1Ilnn
won the fight when the referee stopped
the bout ut the start Of the sixth round.
The first three rounds were fast and
the fight was a draw up to that time
Then Dillon landed haymaker on Mel
sons jaw in the fourth round and Mel
son took the count Of nine. Four times
during the fourth round was Nelson
knocked to the canvas. He came back
ready for more at the start Of The NTH
round. Again Dillon had his opponent
at his mercy and four times Nelson took
the count Of nine. The last time he was
/ knocked down he was saved by the bell
Seeing that Nelson did not have a
chHuce and that to permit the hght to 60
