Probably the largest number of
spectators to assemble at a fistic
show in this city was attracted to
the Farmer-Labor Temple last Fri
day evening to witness the fighting
prowess of Nels Moe of Archer yer
sus Alkali Pete of Raymond.
Immediately following the PR :
liminaries, Boxing Commissioner
Lewis introduced Bill" Tate of Pop
lar who forthwith issued challenge
to the winner of the impending con
troversy between Moe and Alkah.
Next H. W. Clue. also of Poplar,
was presented as the referee of the
main bout. At this time II. O.
Rice and j. G. Debing were selected
as fight judges to assist the referee :
but they didn't get any introduction.
About now the referee was seen
giving instructions or somebody to
the embattled ones, and in few
seconds the fight was on. From
the very beginning it became appar-
ent that both men were good mix
ers and prepared to 60 1T full speed.
Moe drew blood in the first round
with sharp left to Alkali's nose.
This same porboscis was irritated
subsequently several times as Nee
took a notion with his straight left.
While Moe got in his best work at
long range. the Alkali one seemed

Both fighters were going at a fast

ordered to break, Alkali struck
Nels a body blow that laid him on
the canvas. 1t was obviously
foul but tine referee refused to orecoe-

FIdth0dd Lake WhitefiSh
Are Best in Country

Poison. March 5.-That Lake Su-
perior whitefsh taken from the icy
waters of Flathead lake are fatter
firmer and somewhat larger than
those secured in Lake Superior, was
told to members of the Kiwanis
club by John Hadland, who has
had 40 years experience fishing in
Lake Superior, and more recently
in Alaskan waters.
Mr.. Hadland sees a great future
for the industry in Flathead lakes
basins his prediction on his extern
sive knowledge of the work.
Lake Superior fishermen at one
time received two cents a pound
for their whitefish. he said. Today
they are paid q cents per pound
for dressed fish. The product is re-
tailed in the Chicago and the Mil.
wakee markets for 60 cents pound
On account of the firmness of the
whitefish taken from Flathead lake
due to the cold winter, they may
be marketed moEa satisfactorily as
they will arrive at distant markets
in better condition than the average
product, he said.

TRIED TO KILL THE WORK MEMS COMPENSATION
 BILL

laws in the United States. It was written up by the attorneys of the Alaska Juneau Mining Company. Minor Improvements have been made in the original bill under the leadership of Senator Charles Brown and Representative William l.. Paul.
 Tn the last legislature, Senator Tom Jenson tried to kill it's effect iveness by requiring that it take ten employees instead of five to bring the employer under the act.
 When it came to the final pass age of the bill, Senator Jenson vot- ed "No."
 The entire Nome delegation (ex- cept Sundquist) and the entire Fairbanks delegation (except Ross and Johnston) voted against every amendment which was not approved by the corporation lawyers.
 Here are some of the amend ments which were opposed by the Lomen-Gaffney-R ey-Rydeen-Fisher Shel- don combination, the amendments were proposed by William l.. Paul, and supported by Ross, Johnston, Sundquist and the First Division De- legation
 CD Increase compensation for temporary disability from 50@o to 65%; CD station workers to be considered "employees'; (3) bur den of finding out names of bene- ficiaries to be on employer instead of employee; (4) to make it as easy for employee to reject the act as the employer.
 The worst features of the bill were retained by the Gaffney-Lomen Murray combination. For example CD. the right of compromise is re tained. This is bad in view of the fact that there is no specified time when compensation must be paid By waiting long enough the design ing employer can always "settle."
 CD Widows, parents and chi! dren in foreign countries were t. get only 50 per cent under the Calf ney plan.

GERMAN HEAVYWEIGHT
LAYS ASIDE GLOVES

BERLIN, H9-Hans Breitenstraeter,
until recently German heavyweight
champion, will soon exchange his box
ing gloves and togs for a smart cut
away and spats. Then, in German
fashion, ne will bow and say "Mahl-
zeit" to the patrons of his father-in-
laws restaurant ON historic Wilhelm
strasSe.
"Blond Hans" as he is familiarly
known, was the idol of German flap
pers. The race for his heart was won
by the pretty daughter of Paul Lauer,
proprietor of 'Lauer's," a few steps
from Unter den Linden. The restau-
rant has achieved historic fame
through the fact, that during the revo-
luton of 1918, President Ebert and
members of the German cabinet
singled out "Lauer's" as the only pub
lie restaurant to which they deemed it
prudent to go during those troubled
times.
Breitenstraeter plans to relieve his
father-in-law Of a large part of his
work.
