THE OREGON DAILY .JOURNAL, PORTLAND, WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 21, 1914. i i FREDDIE VELSH FAST 3jC 66 - GROWING UNPOPULAR csim ASA RING CHAMPION Briton Flatly Refuses to Jeop ardize Jitle With More Than 10 Round i Go, IS SIDE-STEPPING RITCHIE Doubtful If Champion WU1 Ever Con Mst to Meet Man Prom Wltom He ' Took Title In London. By Hal Sheridan. New York. Oct. 21. Freddie Welsh, world's lightweight champion, is rap Idly becoming the most unpopular scrapper now seeking public favor. This is due entirely to the fact that he flatly refused to jeopardize his title In a bout of more than 10 rounds. He has offered to fight Willie Ritchie, the former champion, in a finish fight, but the offer was all bluff. In the first place he stipulated that Ritchie must guarantee a purse 'for him alone of 125,000. Then he insists, or says he does, that Willie must bet him (25.000. Welsh would just as soon tackle the Belgian army as Ritchie in a finish fight, lie knows, and his manager, Harry Pollock, knows that Ritchie would have flattened him had their London bout been for 25 instead of 20 rounds. In the closing rounds of that clash Ritchie chased Welsh all over the ring, the Welshman unable to do more than clinch, oldesteps and runaway, His attack was gone. Referee Corri gave 'Welsh the championship because of the points he piled up in the first 10 rounds, but unbiased spectators as serted that Ritchie's showing in the closing sessions entitled him to at leant a draw. It is doubtful if Welsh will ever : consent to meet Ritchie again. He uays he will, but talk is cheap. Promoter Coffroth of San Francisco offered Welsh $50,000 for three 20 round bouts. It was more money by at least J30.000 than Welsh was ever offered before for a similar number of contests in hla life. The offer lis tened fipe, until Welsh learned that Ritchie was to be one of his opponents. Then Weluh and Pollock turned up their noses and insisted on the J25, 000 side bet. If Ritchie should, put up $25,000 to go as a side bet for a finish fight, it is a 10 to 1 bet that Welsh and his manager would find some loophole by, which to avoid a clash with the former champloit ANGELS BEAT H0GANITES Los Angeles, Cal., Oct 21. Bunched hits in two Innings gave the Los Angeles team a 5 to 2 victory over the Venice Tigers yesterday. As the result of the victory the Angels tight ened their hold on second place. Singles by Kills and Johnson, Mag gert's triple and an Infield out re sulted in three runs for the Angels In the fourth inning.

"Declaration of Principles" Signed by Nearly 60,000 People of Oregon We, the undersigned, are OPPOSED TO STATEWIDE PROHIBITION, for the following reasons: There is already in existence a law which permits ANY COMMUNITY to decide this question for ITSELF, known as the LOCAL OPTION LAW. STATEWIDE PROHIBITION deprives communities of HOME RULE AND LOCAL OPTION. CONTINUED AGITATION of the liquor question and its injection into active politics is HARMFUL, not only to the cause of TRUE TEMPERANCE, but also to the BUSINESS INTERESTS and INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT OF OREGON. Placing Oregon among the "dry" states would RETARD ITS DEVELOPMENT and give COMPETING STATES TO THE NORTH AND SOUTH Washington and California AN ADVANTAGE IMPOSSIBLE TO OVERCOME. STATEWIDE PROHIBITION would throw TEN THOUSAND MEN OUT OF EMPLOYMENT in Oregon. ' STATEWIDE PROHIBITION would CONFISCATE much valuable property and DEPRECIATE THE VALUE OF ALL PROPERTY. STATEWIDE PROHIBITION would DECREASE CITY REVENUES and thereby MATERIALLY INCREASE GENERAL TAX ATION, t STATEWIDE PROHIBITION would TURN AWAY FROM THE STATE MANY DESIRABLE SETTLERS, who are SO MUCH NEEDED to improve our WASTE LANDS. STATEWIDE PROHIBITION would cause the VACANCY IN PORTLAND ALONE of not less than FIVE HUNDRED STORES AND FIFTEEN HUNDRED DWELLINGS, which, at a moderate estimate, are now paying yearly rentals aggregating ONE AND ONE-HALF MILLION DOLLARS and in ALL OTHER CITIES would result in a PROPORTIONATE AMOUNT of vacant store? and dwellings and LOSS OF RENTALS. We favor the STRICT REGULATION of the liquor traffic WHEREVER LICENSED and STRICT ENFORCEMENT of the law IN ALL COMMUNITIES, but are OPPOSED TO CONTINUED AGITATION of a measure like STATEWIDE PROHIBITION, that can accomplish NO USEFUL PURPOSE.
