|CANZONERI FIRST
DRAW, THEN
DECLARED WINNER
LOcateIIi on Small Crowd
of Fans Fail to Under.
stand Official Mind :
By JACK CUDDY


Omitted Press stan Corresponding
New York, Feb 3-(UP)--Ink is
drying to-day on the duplex de-
cision," another goofy chapter In
the book of boxing plumbers that
may rank in beak- busting history
with the memorable Chicago long
count"
This double-barreled verdict was
rendered last night after the H.
round bout in which Tony Can
zoneri, former lightweight cham
pion, beat CIeto Locatelli of Italy
for the second time In six weeks.
Nearly 5000 fans in Madison
Square Garden heard ancient Joe
HUMPHREYS announce the decision
was a draw" Uncle Joe an
nounced 1t clearly and distinctly
into the loud speaker and with the
appropriate side split Of the hands.
About Is minutes later, after
Canzoneri and Locatelli were in
their dressing rooms and after q
pair of curtain troopers had boxed
three rounds, Uncle Joe again
strobe to the center of the ring
and announced, clearly and disc
tinctly, that Canzoneri was the
"winnah."
The fans were nonplussed. They
had witnessed many lintoward IN
cidents at New York boxing bouts,
but never before had they been
treated to the duplex" Taken
aback, they instinctively seized
upon the fans only weapon, of self
defense. They booed Justify and
lustily-not at Canzoneri's victory
but at the official boner.
Dizzy Business
II the error had occurred in q
small club or one Of the armories
1t would have been lamentable in
deed. But to have their tntelli-
gence SO affronted In the Garden
worlds largest punch emporium
-verged on the tragic. "What the
h." they asked. us nothing
sacred?"
The error was explained like
this. In collecting the judges bal
lots, HUMPHREYS glanced at Abe
Goldberg's slip and saw the first
words contest draw" without
reading further, he picked up the
slip of the other Judge, Leach
Cross, who voted for Canzoneri.
This made O disagreement. So he
called upon Referee Willie Lewis
who voted for q draw.
Unfortunately Judge Goldberg
had filled out his slip as follows:
Contest draw-Canzoneri doing
the best work in his winning
rounds. Conzoner wins"
Canzoneri was electrified in his
dressing room. He turned hand
springs. He had intended to retire
unless he won. But the changed
decision instead made him the un-
disputed challenger for Barney
Ross lightweight crown.
The United Press score sheet
showed that Tony won six rounds
Locatelu five, and the eleventh was
scored even. Tony fioored Cleto
for no counts in the second and
third rounds with hard right hooks
to the jaw. He had him groggy
and hanging on the ropes In the
eighth, and was walloping him al
will in the 18th. A persistent bod,
attack weakened Locatelli in thu
late rounds.

Another year has rolled around with all its hopes its discouagements and its experiences of e We are again looking into the beginning of tomorrow What will it contain for you and you and ourselves? The past year has been filled with many emotions both enlightened and somber but with the approach of each we a ways look into the future with eager look, hoping that this will bring greater opportunities and knowledge than the just past.
 Why not every citizen of Nome look toward the New Year with pridefu and ambitious gaze? We suffered severe catastrophe in September and goody portion of the business section has been rebuilt during the winter months We have everything before go ahead and make Nome better and cleaner city than before The mistakes of the past have taught lesson which in their plans of rebuilding, is hoped will be remembered and the dangers avoided
 Many merchants have already sgnifed their intentions of rebuilding in the spring and next summer Business conditions bright and the economic situation will beyond doubt be higher plane than has for many years
 If that is good indication that the New Year will hold many good promises of prosperity then the person who denies it, is not of discerning character
 In wishing your neighbors and freinds Happy and Prosperous New Year remember to say And For Bigger and Better NOme."

Farm Records Aid
In Income Returns

Hard times notwithstanding, some
Minnesota farmers have to make out
income tax returns this year. The new
state income tax law requires every
individual whose gross income for
1888 exceeded $1,000 to file return
even though his net income was too
small to require the paying Of q tax.
c. B. Cleland, farm management spec
ialist of the agricultural extension
service, University Farm, thinks this
is a good time for farmers to give
serious thought to the matter Of farm
accounting records.
"Most farmers" says Mr.. Cleland,
"do not have accounting records on
which to base their income tax re-
turns, but those who do have a spec
ial advantage. Particularly, such rec
ords enable the farmer to make a
full statement of expense that should
be deducted from his. gross income to
determine the net income upon which
the income tax, if any, must be paid"
Says Mr.. Cleland, gross income is
usually made up Of relatively few
large items that are much more read
lily remembered than are the dozens of
smaller items that make up the ex-
penses. Mr.. Cleland cites the case of
one farmer who had gross income

e<C ONE of the papers in the state are trying to

quarter they dub us 'Woodpeckers,' and in an
other place, Leatherheads.' We respectfully decline
both; but would remark that it is about time were
taking the matter in hand ourselves. Who will sug-
gest something neat and appropriate? ?" This brief
notice, which appeared July g. 1885, in of Min
nesota's earliest territorial newspapers, the "Mnne

peared in the paper few weeks later 1t came from
William R. Marshall who later became governor OF
Minnesota. Marshall proposed the Beaver" for,
he said, "there peculiar fitness in the name.
The valuable fur of this animal first attracted Euro

the habits of large class of citizens, umbermen

The name Beaver State" was however, not
widely approved, for it argued, beavers not
sufficiently in Minnesota to enttle them to
symbolic the state. So it that competitor ap-
peared-the gopher. That animal abundant in
the region, but advocates Of the Gopher State
met with the objection that the animal was too
