A DUTY.
Oakland Times: 1t is unquestionably
the duty of the residents of a locality
to patronize their local dealers. This
is not alone moral obligation, but it is
one also from a reciprocal business view
as well. 1t is what makes the life and
activity of a community. If it is not
done trade languishes and finally dies
and all the material interests thereof
pass with it.

Any delay on his part in proceeding in

LET THEM FIGHT.


Stockton Record: The Record hum
bly, rises to suggest that instead OF
passing laws to prevent Corbett and
FitzsimmonS from fighting the Texas
Legislature would have been entitled to
the heartfelt thanks of the general pub
lie had it passed a law compelling
them to fight. This eternal and internal
monotonous telegraphic repetition of
Yes, they wilF'; mo, they won't"
Now, they cam: Now, they can't :"
etc, is grating on the nerves 1t would
be Il blessing to the country If they
would fight and be done with it. 1t
seems rank nonsense, anyway for the
Lawmakers of a commonwealth TO
pass laws against the comparatively
harmless pastime of prize-fighting
while the healthful and promising
young collegians are daily allowed to
kick each other to death on the football
field.

BILE to arrest for "scorching"? Is the
bicycle rider to be jagged in groups,
and are the fiendish drivers of milk
wagons, butcher carts and other horse
pulled vehicles who slam through the

hour to go unscathed? Is there to be
one law for the devotee of the wheel
and another for the drivers of the gen

impact of twenty pound wheel
against the anatomy of pedestrian
more dangerous and deadly than is
the combined heft of two sixteen hun
dred- pound horses and a wagon loaded
with newly slaughtered hogs? Are the
police able to see the speeding wheel

RYDE, Isle of Wight, October 1S-The
steam yacht Valhalla, owned by Mr.. Jo-
seph Frederick Layccck, and having Lord
Dunraven on board, arrived here from
Newport, R. l., this morning, having left
the latter place on September 2S. The
craft anchored close to the Royal Yacht
Squadron club house at about $50, and she
was soon afterward boarded by a small
brigade Of interviewers deslrous of obtain
ing, direct from Lord Dunraven, his ver-
sion of disappointing races for the Ameri-
cas- cup He said. in substance:
|. Il have no statement to make on the
subject What I would sey has been well
threshed out of me during the fortnight I
stayed in America after the races"
He declined to answer a question as to
whether he had any i'll feeling toward the
New York Yacht Club, and he refused to
comment upon the statement made by Sail
maker Ratsey's men when they arrived at
Cowes recently, that the last race was not
sailed because the buoys had been changed
during the second race, adding:
1T would not do any good to discuss
such unpleasant Matters
lsegarding his plans for future racing,
Lord Dunraven said: Il have no plans. I
have just arrived home after long voyage
and am going to London, and from there
to my estate in Wales. I do not know
what shall do later on"
Touching upon the acceptance by the
New York Yacht Club of the challenge of
Mr.. Charles D. Rose, through the Royal
Victoria Yacht Club for another series of
races for the Americas cup, Lord Dun
raven remarked:
THE matter was practically settled when
I left the United States. Personally I am
glad that it has been 50 easily and quickly
settled.
1--WE had pleasant and uneventful voy-
age and am glad to be back In England" "
Shortly after the Valhalla anchored Lord
Dunraven and Messrs. Laycock and Wood
went ashore to the Royal Yacht Squadron s
club house, where they were soon bdsily
engaged in answering questions about the
recent International yacht races.
