me if I will be successful in getting
the money that I let out?

later date for you are not losing so
very much.

Ans.-You have disguised him .
he won't enter MATRIMONY with
you. Give him up and get out and
make other friends, for it is just a
waste of time to continue with this
man. Change your habit of running
after your friends.

Baseball officials long have
uzzled over the problem of
poor attendance in St. Louis,
out SO far they have done
nothing about the fact that
he two Mound City clubs vir-
Tally bar one-fourth of the
city's population from Sport
mans Park by discriminating
against the Negro !. At the
PRESENT time Negroes, who be-
come far more rabid fans than
whites" if given half the
chance, are allowed only in
the bleachers However, by
being barred from the grand
stand the gates might just as
well be closed to them all
around, because nothing hui
man can survive the hell such
as only the St. Louis bleachers
can be under a broiling Sum-
mer sun
The entire population of
St. Louis, according to the last
official census in 1880, was
S21 $50 -. Of this number ap-
prox5mately 100000 were'
Negroes Thus by slamming
the door to Negroes the St.
Louis club owners reduce
their city, as far as drawing
possibilities are concerned, to
a population of 581, 800. f.
And that ranks it along with
such cities as Milwaukee,
which numbers 578,249, and
Buffalo, which totaled $751;
076 at the last count But
we hear rumblings that the or
binary shrewd st. Louis bosses
finally are getting hep to
themselves in this matter and
may lift the ban on the q. {.
in 1897.

would carry automobiles, trucks, pas
sengers and freight, but that it will be
necessary to discontinue the present
service until the ferry boat is avail
able.
The delay in starting ferry service
is said to be due to the fact that the
company is determined to operate a
boat that will afford fast communica-
ton between the Eastern and Western
Shores and will not start until they
are in position to give this type of
service.
It will be remembered that COM
munication between Colchester and
Baltimore was discontinued at this

MANY IMPROVEMENTS
MADE AT The LOCAL
MILE HIGH DOG TRACK

The locally owned Mile High Dog
Track on the flat, south of Butte, has
made many improvements, such as
a new grandstand, regarded the
track, reinforced the fence, a new
road that connects from Harrison
Avenue to the new entrance on the

faced, with flood lights and neon
lights to mark the new road. These
together with many other improve
ments help to make it nor con-
venient and attractive for the public.
A six-piece band has been ar
ranged for, and other entertainment
features along with attendance
prizes will be some of the attractions.
There are a good number of local
dogs ON hand, with quite a few from

James Orr of Havre made a talk

reporting that Havre had Is unions

more were in the making. The
clerks have 225 members. A COM
pliment was also paid to the Farm
Labor Council which the speaker
stated had proven very valuable in
the political field.
WhitmOre Draws Comparison
Secretary Whitmore made a nice
talk on a comparison of the Utah
Legislature with that of Montana.
He stated that the last session of
Utah's Legislature had passed u la
Dor measures and that the state had
appropriated $4,000 for the Indus
trial Commission which is similar to
our state labor department. It had
also appropriated $4,000 for the
operation of the Women's Minimum
Wage Law and $4,000 for the Labor
Relations act. Secretary Whitmore
pointed out that while Montana has
Sc senators and I02 representative
in the House Of Representatives,
Utah has only "a senators and 81
House members. It has often been
thought by the union organizations
that the Montana Legislature is toe
unwieldy. As a matter of fact some
of the unions have officially en-
dorsed the plan for abolishing the
Senate of Montana.

FANS BEWILDERED
AT FIGHT VERDICT

In one of the greatest fights seen
in Butte in many years, Wesley
Ramey was given the decision over
Hubert Dennis at the Broadway The
atre, Monday night, June 7th.
Not until the decision of the ref
cree and judges was given could the
crowd determine the winner. Every
round was hard and viciously fought
and decided by the narrowest of
margins. A majority of the crowd
thought hal the fight should have
been a draw and the uncertainty as
to who would be announced as win
ner was evidenced by the manner
in which the crowd waited after the
fight for the announcement of the
decision. Then after the decision
had been made they still waited
within the theatre and around the
ringside trying to convince them
selves that Ramey had been award
ed the fight.
