PRIZE FIGHTtNG.-From the Quarterly
Review we see that Mr.. Hunnicutt is opposed
to ''prize fighting in the schools, '' and we are
in agreement with him. He deals with the
system OF bestowing prizes, medals, etc., upon
successful competitors in our schools. He
claims that the system is unfair an positively
injurious, cultiyating an unholy ambition in
some and discouraging Others. He deprecates
the plan of measuring one by another, claim
ing that it engenders a heartless and Unsuitable
ambition, which only feed upon victory, not
over self, but over ones neighbor

REVIVAL MEETINCs.-By an oversight we
failed to mention last week that the revival
services by Rev. Hobart OF East Portland are
still in progress at the Presbyterian Church.
This week many are in attendance from night
10 night and considerable interest is taken in
the meetings. Rev. Mr.. Hobart is an earnest.
sincere worker, pointed and fluent. and his
theology is of the soundest type.

SOUND ADvIcE.-Peter Cooper was great
man, and sometimes gave very sound advice,
but neTer anything more sound than the fol-
lowing: "In all towns where newspaper is
published every man should advertise in it,
even if nothing more than card stating his
name and the business he is engaged in. 1t
does not only pay the advertiser, but it lets the
people at a distance know that the town you
reside in is a prosperous copanasr.isz Of -l~s;
ness men. As the seed is sown the fruit
recompenses. Never pull down your sigr
while you expect to do business"
Roseburg review. [volume] (Roseburg, Or.) 1885-1920, 1886-03-19

To speak of the LIE Blanche Dempsey mill
as one Of the ''most manfully fought fights on
record" shows a strange misunderstanding Of
the meaning OF words. "One of the most
brutal and disgusting fights on record" would
convey a more intelligent idea Of contest
that left both of the human brutes that en-
gagged in it battered, cut, swollen and bloody
as ''stuck pigs -Oregonian.

Gulf & Pacific.

For several days news concerning
this enterprise has been scarce, howev-
or it has come to the surface again.
Judge Burke received telegram yes
terday from Mr.. Henderson, who is
one of the leading men Of this road, to
the effect that he henderson, would
be in condition in few days to de-
post 100000 in Dallas bank, and
that 100 miles of the road would be
let at once. Now it is asked by Mr..
Henderson that Dallas come to the
front with her SAC, 900 subsidy prom
ised, provided the Gulf & Pacific
meant business and really meant to
build the road. Again, there is ru-
NOR which has been floating about for
several days, but which reporters fail
ed to catch, it was SO shadowy, that
the Texas Trunk and Gulf & Pacific
were likely to become one. 1t is said
that the re is meeting at the Grand
Windsor, or some place elesr, this eve
ming, for the purpose of making ar
rangements for consolidation.

Railroad Men.

1t seems that the appearance OF Gen.
G. M. Dodge, of the Panhandle Con-
struction Company, and Morgan
Jones, president of the Fort Worth Il
Denver, in the city yesterday created
a little furore in railroad circles. 1t is
true they had consultations with GER
tain parties; in fact, it is true that
their business here was purely of a
railroad character, but it is not advis-
able to divulge the secrets of "deep
laid plans" and if these gentlemen
mean anything they mean that there
are to be more railroads, the facts of
which will appear in due time. Da!-
las attracts the attention Of both local
and foreign railroad magnates. Each
is anxious to know the wish of the
people of Dallas; each is ready with a
proposition. 1t is a known fact that
Dallas is in the lead. and that fact
alone brings such men as named
above to this city. Sometimes our
people cannot, at the moment, realize
the Importance Of certain movements,
and being naturally conservative, they
are little slow to move; but it is a
fact that when they come to the
scratch" it is "go," and If these
gentlemen mean business they can be
accommodated. ,r-...-t

After Something.

just what w. II. Newman, general
traffic manager of the Missouri Pa
ciac Railroad, was after in his con-
situations with some of our leading
citizens has not yet come to the sur
face, but it is presumable that Mr..
Newman means business, as he is not
given to such idle converse" or $50

on the right side that Mr.. Newman is
after something.
