PRESIDENT ELIOT A DEMOCRAT.

There are few men in the United States
who are entitled 10 higher degree OF per-
sonal consideration than President Eliot, OF
Harvard, man who has shown on more
than one occasion the boldest independence
In his political attitude and the firmest cour-
age in the expression of political convictions
that were opposed 10 the sentiment OF the
most influential portion Of the circle in
which he moved.
President Eliot was nureed IN the
principles OF the Republican party,
hut some years aso, being repealed by
the corruption that had taken pos
session Of il, he became a Mugwump, and
now he has openly proclaimed his intention
OF hereafter uniting himself permanently
with the Democratic organization, both
local and National In very recent adj
dress before the members Ioi the Bay-State
Club. IN Boston. he gave at length the
reasons which had influenced him TO take
this course, and as there are, no doubt,
many other leading Republicans OF Massa-
chusetts going through the political me
tamorphosis through Which he has passed,
il will no, De uninteresting 10 enumerate
these reasons very briefly.
81 think" said President Eliot on the
occasion referred TO, THAT conscientious
citizen should choose between the two
great parties of the country and should
habitually act with that one which best
promotes the principles which he holds
Impelled by this feeling. which was founded
in the soundest good sense, he abandoned
the Republican party, because, first, he
could no longer approve Of its persistent
support Of the protective system, 81 have
come 10 believe" said he, chat the indus
tries Of the United states are crippled and
their natural development prevented by the
heavy taxes maintained under the name Of
protection
In the second place, President Eliot de-
clared that the perpetuation Of free institu-
tions depended on the reform in the civil
service. son that ISSUE he asked, "what
is the record Of the Republican party as
compared with that Of the Democratic
partyy Have we not seen the public de-
generating more and more, and treated
more and more rs private property under
successive Republican Administration
the last of the series being the worst Of all
in this respect; And have we not seen the
single Democratic Administration in TWEEN
| ty-eight years past the best Of all American
Administrations during that period in this
respects"
And finally President Eliot declared that
he became a member of the Democratic
party because he was heartily in sympathy
with its record in connection with pensions.
lie asserted "that the pension system insti-
tuition for the benefit Of the soldiers and
| sailors of the United states had been pros
titutad and degraded by the whole series OF
Republican administrations If | had no
other motive" said he, "for changing my
party, would do everything in my power
by word and act to get a chance to vote
again for Grover Cleveland for President
because he bravely did all he could to re-
store our country to the honorable respect
Of its soldiers and citizens"

PARIS, TEX, Feb. 26.-Dr. R. L.
Wilson, prominent citizen of this city
has just returned from a lengthy visit to
the United States of Colombia, Isthmus
of Panama and the Central American
states. The object of his visit to that
country was to prospect for gold in the
mountains of Colombia. He found gold,
but not in sufficient quantities TO work.
The government of that country is called
republican in form, but he found it to be
little short of military despotism
His description of what he saw
in that country is very interesting The
country he spent most of his time in is
at an altitude of about six hundred feet
above the level Of the sea, and the tenn
perature is seldom above 90 and never
below 70. All the tropical fruits flourish
and the natives live in luxurious idle
ness. On the Doth OF last December be
climbed a cotton tree to a height of
eighteen feet and picked cotton of of
the branches that hung from above. The
tree had squares, blooms aud bolls of all
sizes on it. This tree was
about twenty five years old and
was about ten inches in diameter at the
base. The people plant them principally
for shade trees, but it is ideutically the
same plant that grows in this country,
except that il is a perennial there instead
of an annual. He visited the Panama
canal and Is confident that it can never
be completed. Alreadv $500, 600, 600 have
been expended upon it aud it is estimated
that hardly one-twentieth of the work
has been done. After looking over the
ground he thinks that It Is q physical i'm
possibility for the work ever to be ac-
complished, even if the money could
be raised 20 do the work. He found
work suspended on the Nicaragua canal,

LaBlanche Makes Proposition TO Fight Jack
Dempsey Again on Certain Conditions.
SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, Feb. 90
George LaBlanche, who defeated Jack
Dempsey at the California athletic club
several months ago, published a letter
to-day in which he offers to give Demp-
sey return battle upon certain condi-
tions. LaBlanche says that after he de-
feated Dempsey he established himself in
profitable liquor business ia this city

rarily, from the ring. He accuses
Dempsey and his friends of showering
threats and denunciations upon him I'M
til he has finally concluded 70 accept the
Nonpariel' s challenge for another con-
test. The conditions which LaBlanche
imposes are in the following languages:
My business / estimate to BIZ worth
$40 900, but in order to prove to Demp-
sey that am not afraid OF him, will
sacrifice it for one-half that
sum. Let Dempsey or his hackers
put up $1,000 IN some Sc
cure hands pending the fight, and IL he
defeats me take down $4,000 and Demp-
sey walks into my business sole proprie-
tor. Should prove the victor Dempsey
takes back the $4,000 and 1 retain the sa-
loon. Under these conditions only will
l consent to meet Dempsey before one of
the clubs for a purse Of not less than
