The sporting fraternity expect to see a splendid contest of gloves between these two men. Green in the past has alway: been an agressive puncher, and will doubtless mix things up in a most inter- esting manner with his antagonist.

Senator Boyce Exposes a “Fake” Letter to Poor 0l1d Simpson Applauding Him for His Treachery. CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRAMENTO, Feb. 19.—Senator John J. Boyce has exposed another one of the schemes of Dan Burns and the Southern Pacific Company to decelve legislators for the purpose of pro- moting Burns' candidacy for United States Senator. He has not only exposed the scheme, but he has laid the lash on the back of the Sacra- mento Record-Union, the railroad paper, which is responsible for the dis- semination of this latest falsehood meant to delude legislators. Senator Boyce makes the expose in a letter addressed to the Los Angeles Times. It is as follows: SACRAMENTO, Cal., Feb. 19, 1899. Sycophantic mendacity usually chacterizes the utterances of every pub- lic journal that surrenders its independent manhood as a guide to public opi fon and becomes a mere bulletin-board, on which Is recorded “train order: from the Southern Pacific dispatcher's office, and is used for the convenience of carrying on the details of the system. . I am told that in the past the Record-Union, or its predecessor in journal- ism, wielded an immense power and Influence in-this portion of the State, and carrled on a “battle royal” against the growing arrogance of the old Central Pacific combine, which sought to fasten upon the people of Central California the shackles of despotic monopoly. The advance of material development in time strengthened their enemy until the paper was obliged to surrender at discretion, and the raflroad people bought the paper and *good will” of the journal which had so long protected the rights of the people in this vicinity, and henceforth it became but the servile creature of its master and has ever since taken orders from the Central office. Since this paper became the chat- tel of the Southern Pacific Railroad it has become the spokesman of that cor- poration for the purpose of molding public opinion and “setung the pace” for all other journals upon the Southern Pacific payroll. This judgment has been slowly formed by careful observation of the course of the Record-Union for the past few years, but never couid be based upon any conerete proof available to me until, in the course of the develop- ment of the preser* Senatorial contest, one of the tentacles of the octopus reached out into an obscure locality, where my absolute familiarity with men and things brought the proof home to my mind. In the puerile attempt on the part of the Record-Union, in its issue of Sunday, February 19, to show what it is pleased to call “the other side,”” the opportunity is offered, and I avail myself thereof. In this article the paper says: n view of the fact that some of the newspapers of the State have been loud in their abuse of Senator Stmpson who recently changed his vote from Bulla to Burns, it will be interest- ing to note a few of the many letters received by the Senator from Re- publicans throughout the State.” TUnder this heading we find the following: ‘Jacob Sharp, the Common Council of Santa Barbara, wrote as follows: « ] have just been reading an account of your change of vote in the Los Angeles Times. If you fail to make them retract, or fall to sue them a member of for criminal libel, you will disappoint your friends. D-—n it, T am mad enough to demand satisfaction myself.’” My personal famillarity with Santa Barbara and its inhabitants, and representing them in the public office of Senator from that and the ad- joining County of Ventura, imposes upon me the duty of exposing the meth- ods resorted to by this great journal. There is not now, and never was, since the existence of a Common Coun- eil of Santa Barbara, any member thereof named Jacob Sharp. There is a man who has resided in Santa Barbara some years, known as “‘Jake Shope.” He formerly was a deputy constable in a Justice court and a collector of bad debts. This man ascertained the extent of his popularity in Santa Barbara by having been defeated at the last election as a candidate for Justice of the Peace on the Republican ticket, when the city was carried by from 200 to 400 Republican, being defeated for that office by “Old Tom Curley.” who has lived some years in Santa Barbara, and gained a precarious existence as con- stable, deputy constable and auctioneer. The people of that community, when thev chose “Tom Curley” over “Jake Shope,” set their estimate on the character of Shope in a most em- phatic fashion. In the opinion of the writer, Shope’s communication, if any such is in existence, received its inspiration from a certain lawyer in Santa Barbara, who travels on an annual pass and has usually delivered that coun- ty delegation in State conventions according to the orders of the Southern Pacific political bureau. These historical facts serve to show the value of such communications as the Record-Union quotes to bolster up its desperate cause. JOHN J. BOYCE. A FENDERLESS CAR CRUSHES A CHILD the ground.
