People Against Third Term.

From remarks floating around in oul
local exchanges there is determined
sentiment against a third term. The
sentiment has been growing and has
assumed such proportion that to seek
a third term is to court defeat. Men
who have tried for a third term have
found to their sorrow that it will not sue
ceed, and the outlook is no more hopeful
for others who may in the future try it.
People are considerate and do not be-
lieve, if an Office is a good thing, in
giving one man too much of it, or if bad,
in compelling him to long perform the
onerouS duties.

of which $500 went to the loser, was won by
Griffin in the fourth round. Though both men
were rated No. in their class they were COM

but few Of their intimate friends seemed to
care much how the fight ended. There was but
little money bet on the result and what little
there was was on at even money. Prof. John
Duffey was selected as referee. Larkin was the
first to enter the ring, with Tom Murray and
John Glynn, his seconds. He weighed 1872
pounds. He appeared in good condition.
Griffin made his appearance a few seconds
later, accompanied by James Carroll, the light
weight. and Jim Robinson, his seconds. He
weighed In at 1911 pounds.

Griffin, who got in three hard right-handers at

Griffin was at him again and it
was case of give and take. As Griffin
struck at the heart Larkin became dazed, but

drawing blood. 1t was Grifins round and

which Larkin was twice knocked down. The
