THUKSDAY, JULY 7, 1910
Announcement
I hereby announce myself as a
candidate for State Representa
tive of the 8rd representative
district of Nebraska, subject to
the Primaries of the Democratic
and People's Independent Parties
to be held Aug. 10, 1910.
.1. A. Kobbutson.
We're glad it didn't happen at
Reno, Nebr.
After which comes the big
Box Butte county fair, Sept. 21,
22 and 23, 1910.
A great many San Francisco
people were bitter in their de
nunciation of the governor of
California because he forbid the
Johnson-.Tefferies mill to disgrace
that state, but it is probable that
some of them are now glad that
he did it. After all, we're glad
it didn't happen in Nebraska.
One of the most hopeful signs
of the times in political affairs is
the pronounced tendency among
leading statesmen, who are
laboring for the good of the mass
of the people, to endeavor to se
cure needed reforms by means
of nonpartisan efforts. One of
the best things about direct
legiHlation.iSvthut it is nonparti
san in its working, That is one
reason why direct legislation is
so detested by party bosses and
political schemers and tricksters,
and so much in favor with men
of all parties who have tho in
terest of the country at heart.
The Alliance Herald
To the Front
The Herald never before had
a better organization for getting
out a first-class newspaper and
giving satisfactory service in do
ing job printing than it has right
now, The addition to our force
of Lloyd C. Thomas as business
manager and Mrs. L. C. Thomas
as bookkeeper and stenographer
gives us the help that the paper
has needed most recently, and
assures success in every way.
Briefly stated The Herald's
line-up as follows:
Tho editor, who homesteaded
in Nebraska twenty-five years
ago, is thoroughly familiar with
the state. A reasonable degree
of modesty forbids us saying
anything too commendatory in
this article, but we venture to
say that many years' experience
in newspaper and school work
should be some help in conduct
ing the editorial part of the lead
ing paper of this part of the
state.
In regard to the business
management, those who ai-e ac
quainted with Mr. and Mrs.
Lloyd C. Thomas will agree
with us that under their efficient
work the business will be placed
on a basis that will enable us to
push the circulation and increase
the usefulness of The Herald as
never before.
In the mechanical (or printing)
department we have a force that
for efficiency is not second to
that of any similar printing office
in Nebraska, so far as we know.
Fortunately for us, we have a
reserve force that we can draw
on in emergencies that enables
us to get out work that It would
otherwise be impossible at times
to handle.
In addition to the above, im
provements are soon to be made
in the office equipment that will
help us in getting up a larger
amount of local news than ever
before. The principal one .of
these improvements is to be- a
typesetting machine -of the lat
est pattern,.

George Hartlng, olllclal time-J!

njent: "Time was called at 2:45 ! I

rounds. The thno for the last ! !

doubt that Independent of this Jef- '

Reno, Nov., July 5. Jack Johnson
Is still tho world's heavyweight cham
pion. Ho defeated James J. Jeffries
In the fifteenth round here.
Tho light was oue-sldod from tho
start. The negro blocked tho old
champion's uIowb at every stage of
the game nnd punished him severely
in the last live rounds of the fighting.
At the beginning of the thirteenth
round the experts at the ringside
passed the verdict that if Jeffries
would simply stand and not fight ho
might stay the limit. As they carno
up for the fifteenth round Johnson
went at his man savagely. He sent
Jeff down tho first time with a rain Df
lefts and' rlghu to the jaw, and Jeff
Vhoto by American Press Association.
The Smile That Won't Come Off.
took the count of eight twice. Each
time Jeff fell outside tho lower ropes
on the platform.
As Jeff staggerod to n foothold after
the third time he had been sent to
the floor Johnson sprung at him like a
tiger, and with a succession of lefts
ami rights to the Jaw sent him down
nnd out. As Jeff was helped to his
corner he said:
Crowd Breaks Through Ropes.
"I am not a good fighter any longer.
I could not come back, boys; I couldn't
coma back. Ask JoluiHon if he will
give me his gloves."
Ah Jeff hung through the ropes, a
hundred of his friends and admirers
rushed close and cried: "Don't let
the old nian got knocked out; stop it."
Hut the timekeeper's inexorable
count went on to tho fatal ten.
When the count of soven had been
reached at least a hundred people
broke tluough the ropes and Hartlng
was screened from the ring by the
crowd, The confusion was so great
that no announcement fiom'the ring
ofllcials was audible.
Jeffries was picked up by his broth
er. Jack, and Corbett and carried back
to his corner, still In a dazed condi
tion. Johnson stood In tho center of
the rln,; nnd receivod the congratula
tions of BIMy Delaney and his other
seconds. As he talked to Delaney he
was breathing absolutely normal.
Slg Hart said to the champion:
"Go over nnd shako hands with the
poor fellow."
Jack said:
"I don't owe him anything now."
1 nter he went to the Jeff coi ner,
but Jim Corbett and Jack O'Brien
wave l him awny. Then he 'returned
to his own corner. The crowd was ho
deno that the police had to keep the
people hack.
Jeffries was tnken, to Moana
