EDITORS AROUSED BY TRIP.
DenunciatiOn and Praise Feature Com
ment on Walker.

NEW YORK, November 20 Dr.
Editorial reaction ranging from wishes
for his success to Pronunciation of his
trip IS q stunt" has come from New
York newspapers as a result of Mayor
James ]. Walkers trip to California to
plead for the release of Tom Mooney.
New York Evening Post: Mayor
Walker, who ought to stay here to plead
for himself, Is going to California to
plead for Tom Mooney, the bomb
thrower. 1t is probably good politics
-" 1t will appeal to those soft-hearted
people who like to see everybody par
doned. Nevertheless, it is essentially
the most impudent of all the impudent
ideas that our tmpudent mayor has
conceived.
New York Sun: It Is remarkable
compliment the Mooney interests pay
to the persuasive qualities of Mayor
Walker. They rely on him to do some
thing which the Hon. Frank P. Walsh
has been unable to accomplish in all
these years California must not
be too critical Of the visit. Once upon
a time a California lawyer came to
New York to obtain the liberty Of the
murderer Thaw, and Mr.. Delmas was
acclaimed by the Eastern press as a
Napoleon Of the bar.
New York Daily News: Mayor

to try to get Tom Mooney out Of jail
II all were quiet in New York City
the trip might be all right, except, Of
course, for the doubtful propriety Of
interference by the mayor of a great
city in the AFFAIRS Of great State.
New York Herald Tribune-The sur
prising spectacle Of our mayors sudden
desertion Of his desk for a transcon-
tinental trip to plead for the pardon
Of Tom Mooney still defies any routine
explanation. One might say from his
previous record as q per1patetic mayor
that he was merely snatching this OPP
p0rtun1ty to get away from his Official
duties. The plausibility Of this argu-
ment IL supported by his neglect,
hitherto, to make any public display Of
his interest In the Mooney case I"
In the country as a whole there will
be many to hope that his honor will
succeed In his mission, but it is a sad
commentary on American justice that
the freedom Of any one should hinge
on a stunt
New York World Telegram Stirred
by appeals from Tom Mooney and his
aged mother, Mayor James j. Walker
has decided to go to California and
personally appeal to his old friend, Gov
Rolph, for pardon for Mooney I"
labor leader serving a life sentence
upon perjured evidence. We wish
Mayor Walker success in his errand.

SAN FRANCISCO, November 90
James j. Walker lust an associate
counsel for Tom Mooney, convicted as
bomber Of the San Francisco Prepared
ness day parade here Is years ago, will
know lot about an involved case when
Gov. James Rolph opens a pardon APP
plication hearing for Mooney at 10 am.
next Tuesday.
The mayor of New York has spent
much time studying the record since his
arrival in California last Tuesday and
he expects to devote many additional
hours to 1t over the week end. At a
conference between the mayor and the
Governor to arrange details for the
hearing the mayor asked the Governor
to permit three attorneys for Mooney to
speak.
Frank p. Walsh, Mooney lawyer for
Is years, will open the case. Aaron Sa-
piro was named to close.
Gov. Rolph, announcing the arrange
ments, said there would be at least
three and one-half hours of argument.
Walsh taking two, Walker one or more
and Sapiro about 80 minutes. Walker
explained time would be saved by hav-
ing walsh open, as the veteran counsel
or could recite the chronological order
more rapidly than the mayor, much less
familiar with it's ramifications.
There will be no session at San QUEEN
tin. where Mooney is imprisoned under
a life sentence. The hearing will not
concern itself with the case of Warren
K. Billings, also serving a life sentence.
Gov. Rolph will be flanked by several
well known California lawyers as ad-
visers when the hearing is held.

Max Schmeling may have gotten some of his bright ideas about fisti- cuffing from the champion he re- sembles, Jack Dempsey, but the Germans werkmanlike style is fashioned more upon the Gene Tun- ney pattern.
 Max is not the killing puncher that Dempsey was. He is short, sharp and punishing hitter, how ever, with style calculated, like Tunney's, to wear down an oppon- ent over the route. Tunney bat tered Gibbons and Dempsey much the same way that Schmeling beat down Stribling and Risko.
 Max is not the finished boxer that Gene was. Probably he never will be as clever or as fast. Never theless, Schmeling has remarkable endurance plus an instinct for rat ing his pace well and natural abil- ity as a blocker. He took most

 Stribling will not quit the ring, but by now 1t seems clear his championship ambitions are behind him. The lean Georgian fought himself out over the short, two or three week circuit.
 He has never shown his ability to go the full championship dis tance against first class opposition. His worst two setbacks were at Is rounds against Berlenbach and Schmeling. In the language of the turf he appears strictly a sprinter.

 Considering that Schmeling had fought less than four rounds in nearly two previous years, his showing against Stribling was lit tie short of remarkable. He had youth, of course, in his favor. Ap- parently he learns quickly, by ob- servation as well as experience.
 He was smartly handled, too, and climbed into the ring in Cleveland's magnificent lake-front stadium in as prime condition for the fight as was Twenty Grand for the Bel mont Stakes.

Well folks, just KUN up from
Reno Nevade, to make my home on
Vashon Island, and am goin ia be
here fer some time chat is, if the
people here don't get in hurry fer
me ia leave) fer / think 1t is about
the best spot in this section. I left
Reno because tina citizens down thar
wanted ia have gamblin, and between
me and the preachers and gamblin' I
decided that some one ought ia move,
so 1 did the movin I have enough
horse sense Ia move when I can't
boost tina place I live in, some people
don't. Wen enyway, 1 like Vashon
Island, and I'm glad I'm here.
Tina tother day walked in that
place they call Tins Place and a
little baldheaded Teller waited on me
and during our conversation he told
me that thar was goin' TIA be a big
meetin' of tina Kommercial Klub at
the high school that mite, and they
were goin' ia have some eats, I al
ways like ia eat so decided ia go.
About 800 o'clock I meandered down
ia tina meetin' and met lot of nice
people and enjoyed tina meetin', it
was good one too. Tina Puget Sound
Ct Light Company put on good
program and Mr.. McKinnon told how
he managed ia get tina Island 100000
for road construction, which we ought
ia have caus tina roads need fixin'.
Thar's just one thing bout tina meetin'
I didn't nderstand-durin' tina presi-
dents talk bout little hand circulars
bein' sent out he said that was tina
only direct means of reachin' the
public.-Well rite after tina meetin I
went right down ia tina editers home
ia find OFT why tina president of tina
Kommercial Klub couldn't get that
stuff in tina paper and she told me
that she was always glad ia print
Kommercial Klub news-so then /
jest drew my own conclusions
New folks I don't think thar ought ia
be any friction on this wonderful
little Island, I think that tina Kom
mercial Klub ought ia try and CO.
operate with tina whole Island and tina
people with tina Kommercial Klub. Ii
I have got eny thing ia say believe
me I am goin' ia say it if I have ia
call special meetin'-an that amt
