and a half; Bligh, the Sydney heavy
weight, in one round; Tom TAYLOR, a
pupil of Peter jackson, in two rounds;
Fogarty In three rounds; Mike Dooley
in eight rounds.
Then he fought a draw with Costello
in a battle lasting two hours and u
quarter. Afterwards, after many un-
successful efforts to get on another
fight, he agreed to stop Costello, in six
rounds and failed to do it. Then he
was matched to fight Jackson, but
having hurt his wrist in the set to with
; Costello, he was forced to lose that
honor-and his deposit.
Then he beat Laing, the heavy
weight champion of New Zealand: and
Jack Burke, OF London who went
from America to Australia) in eight
rounds. Then he went to London and
knocked ont Bill Goode in five rounds
last October. His "draw'' with Jem
Smith-when the outrageous conduct
of Smiths Brummagem heelers dis
graced their favorite forever-is ia
miliar to everybody. The fight lasted
fourteen rounds and Vas al in Slavin's
favor.
The record l have Il over rapidly in
order TO bring out the main fact which
~ hAoNAOnNo ia 9ldNAl Is a. llditl
fighter, who finishes his battles in short
time.
A sight of him shows that he is
a wonderfully good man. He is built
like a neat NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. is he
carries off his weight of 100 pounds in
condition just as easily as a good 15O-
pound carries off his.
He is a bright, sharp-looking fellow,
who evidently has brains-and brains
are a great factor in a fight. He is a
man of great courage; there is nc ques-
ton in the world about that. Then he
is a young man, a little over 20, and a
man ought to fight best at between 26
and 30.
Slavin's style of fighting is to go
ahead and set the pace. He is an ag-
gressive fighter; it is his custom to feel
a nan out until he gets his measure,
which he can do in shorter time than
most men because he has a fine idea of
time and distance. He can tell how
far a nan can reach and how quick he
is, and when he has acquired that valu-
able information he generally cuts the
pace very fast, as is shown by all his
battles, as well as that with Kilrain.
Slavin has a tremendously strong
forearm and hand. This gave him a
fearful half-arm upper cut. lie didn't
take much swing, but got In a great
force. The upper cut is the hardest
kind of a blow TO learn. A man who is
clever upper cutter has a great advan-
tage. lie has to be fought at longer
range and, consequently, doesn't get so
much punishment himself. Corbett,
as well as Slavin, has the upper cut
down to d fine thing.
Slavin is what / call a hip-hitter; /
mean by this that instead Of standing
with his hips stiff and getting the swing
with the shoulder, alone, he gets the
swing with the hips, He hits with that
100 pounds, every ounce OF it. So much
for Slayin's principal characteristics. /
might add hat he is six feet, one and a
half inches in height, and measures 421
inches around the chest. In both these
measurements he exceeds Kilrain, who
is five feet, ten and a half inches in
height, and measures Al inches around
the chest. w. ID.

Both parties are well connected.
Smith was organist Of the Moravian

The good humored way in which repub-
| licans accept their defeat is not sign that
| they were anxious to be whipped but
rather. that they have a supreme conf
dence In the republican party. AS a rule
republican voters are full of pluck and de-
termination and a political knock-down
blow only makes them the more determin-
| ed to win next time.-Boston Advertiser.
The spectacle Of the New York Times
vociferously applauding Tammany's vic
tory must be rather painful one for the
respectable citizens of the metropolis who
recall the terrific blows that the Times
dead editor once dealt that pestilent or
ganization. The Times decline and fall
is striking instance of the inevitable re-
suits of close association with the Demo-
cracy. boston Journal.
A dispassionate survey of the political
battlefield must convince every unpreiu-
diced person that the victories won, by the
Republican party on Tuesday more than
counterbalance the defeats il encountered
in this and other States. Victory perched
upon its banners in the two great COM
monwealths where the national issue of
protection against free trade was put fair
ly before the people, and where it met de-
feat the contest was waged on questions
of mere local significance which will not
be heard Of in next years campaign for

The result of the election i'm New York

The one State in which the Republicans
made great gains this year, electing n
Governor in place of a Democrat, was
Ohio. and that was the one State i'm which
the Republicans fought the campaign on
national issues. They nominated Major
Mckinley for Governor who is held re-
sponsible more than anybody else for the
new tariff, and they elected him by n
handsome majority.-New York Tribune.
Mr.. Grover Cleveland may be described
as "still harping on his grandmother"
when he says: ANY man who still
thinks that tariff reform is "a settled and
obsolete issue is either wilfuly
wrong or dangerously dull" Yet in
Ohio, where the only distinct fight was
made on the tariff issue this year, the
"tariff reformer" is lin the soup" and

AS 1 WAS SAYING.

A member of the News staff essayed TO
visit recently, for the first time, the rooms
of the Johnston Young Mems Republican
Club. Arrived at Olneyville square and
seeing no indication of its whereabouts he
asked "A policeman. That official courte-
ously offered TO pilot the writer. The
first time they climbed broad stairway
and intruded upon n prayer meeting,
where Sinners, Come" was being sung
with exemplary vigor. Down again and
up another stair. this time stopping short
at the door of a Y. w. G. Il. L. lunch
room. When they emerged again, they
were relieved from further search by an
acquaintance who met them on the street.
It is evident that the Johnston folks are a
quiet and exemplary lot:
A pretty well known church man broke
out into a rather violent expression OF
opinion about the Independent the other
he said hotly. ''It isn't possible. AS a
matter of fact the Independent is never
so and never fair, for instance, to my own
church" Its the same way in politics" !"
he went on and | began to breathe easier,
for the ground was more familiar
dependent, but you find in it the same
arsenal of Democratic weapons as in the
Globe. There's not a particle of differ
ence. Independence is impossible. A man
is bound to be either one thing or the
other"
The notions sometimes prevalent to the
effect that "women's rights women" are
undomest'c were quee.ly comment d upon
bv the scene at yeste days meeting OF the
Rhode Island Association, where more
than one woman 50 peacefully engaged
in fancy work, while the legal disabilities
of the sex were being discussed.
Once there was a paper which I'll call
the Iimbuctoo TO.atom, because that
wasn't its name. SoTe years ago, by OPP
posing the party which had built it up,
the policy by which AZ fiocrished and the
me. who had helped make it great, IL
changed politics over matter regarding
the importation of ans and bananas and
became what we would call in this coun-
try Mugwump, for which the African
term, according to NJ. de Brazza, is
''mpaAgo-mpango." A head man of the
tribe, disguised at this course, swore he
would never pay another bread fruit to
the paper He didn't for awhile but fin
ally weakened through necessity of know
ing the quotations of prime mess mis-
sionary, and to keep his oath was forced
to induce another man to bear his annual
offering of bread fruit, SO impossible did
he find IL TO get along without some di-
gest of equatorial doings. And thereafter
did the youth bear the offerings of bread
fruit. "You get it," said the head man,
for / won't" Imagine the delight of
this head man and of thousands of others
when new paper was published in Tim
buctoo, upholding the old standards of
foreign trade, SO that he could end this
pretty farce of self-deceptionl

THE NEW YORK CENSUS.

Now that the New York Democrats
have elected their governor while losing
both branches of the legislature, they
have begun again, with redoubled fury,
shrieking about the failure to take a
state census in 1885.
The situation in New York is peculiar.
The legislative apportionment Is made
upon the basis of the state census taken
every ten years, as required by the con-
stitution. The national census is not
used for the purpose. The legislative
districts are still divided upon the basis
of the state census of 1875, none having
been made in 1885.
The fault of that neglect and breach
of the constitution is Gov. Hills en-
tirely. The legislature, then as now Re-
publican, passed census bill approp-
rating sum of money not unreason-
able considering the size of the State.
Hill vetoed it, as he said, upon strict
construction principles because he held
that the legislature had no authority to
1TONlut ~
alton, counting of noses. There We're
good Democratic precedents for taking
social and industrial facts as well as a
mere enumeration. The census of 1855,
voted by Democrats, contains very val
liable general statistics.
Hills avowed reasons for vetoing the
bill were constitutional scruples and a
love of economy. A reason never
avowed, but more potent with him, was
that he wanted all the patronage of the
appointment of census agents.
Hill told the Legislature just what
kind of bill he would sign. The Leg
islature refused to be dictated to. Hill
called special session and precisely the
same bill was again passed and vetoed.
There the matter dropped.
In seeking TO blame the Republicans
for New Yorks rather antiquated APP
portionment, Democratic newspapers
seem TO hold low idea of their readers
intelligence.

SHERMAN ON SILVER.

Senator John Sherman in an inter
view on the results of the election
makes this significant statement: IL
am convinced that free coinage bill
will be passed 10y the Congress which
assemblies in December. l also believe
that such a bill will be vetoed by Presi-
dent Harrison. This will naturally
make free silver leading issue of the
next presidential fight. The financial
battle that we have fought in Ohio will
then be transferred to the nation, and a
contest such AS we have never seen will
be the result"
In such event where will the Demo-
Gratis of Massachusetts, stand? What
avail their protestations in favor of hon
est money il face of the overwhelming
sentiment of the party with which they
rise or fall? Will they invite Messrs.
Mills, Crisp & Company over the border
a second time? If they take issue with
their own phalanx do they not become a
third party, and cease To be Democrats
at all?
On the money question, rs on the
tariff, Republicans have an immeasura-
ble advantage next year. II is only the
Democrats who nun off after wild doc
trines, chasing one will o the wisp i'll
this State and another in another, all for
the sake of catching a few voters at a
single election. The Republican party
stands by its principles, and these are the
same the country over, honest money
and the protection and development of
home industries.

A DIFFERENCE.

THE Journals analysis Of the elections
is a well-worded article betokening a
desire TO avoid saying anything. The
Journal is trying to get on the fence
again, as it always does when waiting to
hear from some Democratic prophet.
1t will have it that McKinley's personal
popularity elected him, aided by un-
heard-of efforts in his behalf by the ma
tiQnal Republican committee, but Russell
was elected on account of his tariff re-
form ideas.
What were Mills, Cleveland and other
Democratic lights of greater or less mag
nitude doing then? And if this great re-
former Mr. Russell was to continue to
reform why did he not get the assist
ance of a council, senate, house, to
enable him to accomplish the reforms
for which the oppressed people OF Mas
sachusetts are signing? 1t was a per-
sonal victory, pure and simple, accorded
to gallant young man in a hard fight,

uSSc. Ills dShCi
of his opponents and it was given
enough of it to elect him, the only rep
resentative of his party on the ticket,
showing that the sympathy, or conf
dence or whatever it was, given to him,
was not bestowed upon his party.
With Mckinley it was otherwise. He
gets the election and legislature in
sympathy with his ideas. 1t isn't an
empty title. The Journal is disappoint-
ed in Pennsylvania. That is Republi-
can State, and because a trusted official
has turned out badly that is no cause
for trying to create revolution and put
in Office the party of Tammany. This
particular one is in prison, where he
. ought TO be. but there are a half dozen
or so of defaulting State treasurers at
large, which fact the Journal sees fit, in
its independence" not to mention.
They are Democrats.

THE PROGRESS OF RECIPROCITY.


The importance of the reciprocity
clause of the Mckinley bill and its effect
upon the business prosperity of the coun-
try makes il fitting to call frequent at
tention to the prospects of new treaties,
and the results of those already formed.
With the West Indies there are favor
able negotiations already pei :. Dele
gates from the Barbados and Trinidad
two of the most important of the British
West Indies, are expected to reach
Washington at an early day, with
the authority Of the Foreign Office,
TO confer with Sir Julian Paunce-
fote regarding a basis of recipro-
city between them and this country. The
Bureau of American Republics reports
that the British West Indies have a trade
aggregating $61 ,7O2, III. OF this, $30,-
j12, 600 is imports, and S31, 49, ,452 is ex-
ports. Barbados and Trinidad have
$40 ,005, ,222 imports and sci ,426,050 ex-
ports, or total of over half the entire
trade Of that section of the
island. AT present we furnish
less than one-third of the imports
of those islands and import about one
half of their exports. 1t is expected that
by means of the treaty in prospect we
can secure a large portion of the trade
which now goes TO Great Britain. When
this is completed we shall have treaties
with countries south of us doing more
than two-thirds of the export trade of
those states and about one-third of the
import trade.
The prospect Of reciprocity with Ar
gcntine Republic is not favorable, but
with Venezuela, Colombia, Peru and
Mexico the prospects are bright Vene-
zuela and Colombia are large producers
of coffee and are easily accessible from
our ports, so that our trade with them
can be ea lily and greatly increased.
