sheedy tnen eombats Corbett's statements IS
TO the earnings OF clubs giving fights by an array
OF what be asserts 10 be authentic figures, and
continues:
One word by way Of conclusion, and think
II will prove painful surprise TO C0rbett. That
gentleman assails nv infallibility a. Al oracle,
and says predicted his defea. by sullivan in

must have become impressed with the bel ef.
for he. so I an reliably informed, forwarded
5000 70 san Francisco 10 bet agai nEt e. 500 that
Sullivan would de eat him. He apparently did
not have that supreme confidence n himself
tnat ne now possesses and he cast an
anchor to windward. This assertion is not
mere hearsay: 1 obtained this knowledge

Tho Case Of Belknap and Speck.
Davenport Times.


The Spokane daily press has coolly arrogated
TO itself ana its candidate all the virtues and in
dependence Of thought and action worthy OF
the name IN the present campaign, and those
who presume 70 fer are dismissed as personal
tools Of senator Allen bound by some obliga-
ton. The Tins l. given 10 understand that
there Is great difference between the relations
Of Beiknap an speck to spokane county ami
knneaI 10 King, and that Allen supporters are
not competent judges OF the situation. l. is
fret claimed that Kipnear wa elected two
years ago when the present senatorial contest
was not sn is-ue. and, therefore, Was not bound
by the resolutions OF the last cam paign. We are
told tia, kinnear was favorable 20 Turner two
years ago, when his candidacy was in no sense
an issue. Now the Alien supporters may be
yery dull people, but il would seem to them that
If Aliens candidacy was not an issue then, but
had become since. and DIR. kinnear had
been plainly informed as 10 the wi hes OF his
conhtltuenc' that he was IS morally obligated
to regard their wishes any Candidate elected
upon them.
