The Difference.
From the'New York Evening Post

From the New York Evening Post.
In California where the conditions were
almost exactly the same as in Tennessee
the Republicans have promptly surrendered
the governorship to the man who was
elected, while in Tennessee the Democrats
are keeping out the man whom the people
elected, on the pretence that there were
frauds which the legislature must irvesti-
gate, and propose to have the Democratic
incumbent hold over pending such an
investigation. There is absolutely no de-
fence for this course, and it only illustrates
the fatal capacity of the Democratic party
for blundering.

The Cotton Growers Protective asso-
citation, which has just held a meeting in
Jackson, Miss, took strong action against
the pernicious single crop system in the
South. The subject was carefully discuss
ed, and resolutions were adopted by which
the members pledge themselves to raise
less cotton and to devote their energies to
diversified agricultural industries. Every
grower is urged to raise at least one fourth
less cotton and plant peas, corn, oats, etc.
Cold storage houses are recommended, and
all the newspapers in the state are asked
to keep the resolutions before the public.
To change the habits of the southern
planters will be slow work, but the only
way of bringing southern agriculture into
rivalry with that of the North lies in the
direction indicated.

If the Angel Gabriel Had Financial
From the Boston Herald

Unfortunately there is considerable truth
in the statement of the financial editor of
the New York Times that if the Angel
Gabriel came down to Washington with a
financial plan, one member would say it
did not do justice to silver; another that
it was open to the objection of imitation; a
third that its redemption features were un-
sound; while possibly the angels inter
ference at all would be resented, as repre-
senting a place with which we had no prac-
tical relations.

why the japanese Are Bound to Take
Peking.

Reports of the war between China and
Japan are monotonous in character and
not of a kind to invite study of the maps.
The Chinese get beaten regularly in every
engagement, and the Japanese armies are
still pressing on to Peking, notwithstand-
ing the wintry weather. The japanese
minister to England says with entire frank
ness that the reason his countrymen are
determined to capture the Chinese capital
and dictate terms of peace from there is
that the Chinese will not confess defeat
unless they receive blow at some vital
point. They affect to belittle the capture
of Port Arthur on the ground that the
place is only small village ignoring the
fact that it was China most valuable naval
depot and arsenal. The Chinese populace
believe to this day that they achieved a
brilliant triumph over the French at Ton
quin, and should the war with Japan come
to an end at present the Chinese officials
would claim triumph over Japan. With
Peking in japanese hands, however, the
situation would be so evident that no
amount of Oriental lying could cover or
obscure it,

As high-handed a proceeding as any Of
which we have recently read was that by
which the Democrats of the New Mexico
territorial assembly siezed the control of
that body when it assembled on Monday,
Dec. 81. Democratic members were sworn
in regardless of the majorities by which
Republican contestants had been elected,
and the House was organized by the Dem
ocrats regardless of law or equity, as is
evident from the detailed account printed
in the Santa FG Republican. A. the cul-
mination of these proceedings the - Re-
publican members left the hall in body
and remained by themselves until the fol-
lowing Friday when, all hope of justice
being done or a compromise effected,
they returned, out of regard to the ma
terial interests of the territory and the
good of their party. One of these 10 Re-
publican members was j. G. Clancy OF
Guadalupe, a prominent sheep-grower,
and man of well known Windham
county connection.

The Emperor of Germany is reported to
have said recently that, as the German
merchant marine is now the second largest
in the world, it is time for the increase of
the German navy by the addition of several
fast cruisers. He is also said to have ex-
pressed the sentiment that as his grand
father made the German Army, he wanted
the honor of making the German navy.
The young Emperor makes no secret of his
military ambition, no matter what the tax
payers think about the cost of gratifying it.

New Orleans Sports Think Corbett
Wants to Avoid Meeting

ARDMoRE, I. T., Oct 8. 5.-Enthusiasm
over the probable coming Of the Corbett-
Fitzsimmons fight was intensified in Ard
more today Some of th6 best legal talent
here concur in the opinion that there is no
law on the statute books to prevent the
fight coming off in the territory, and on
the strength of this active steps to have it
brought here are being made
An enthusiastic mass meeting was held
in the offices of United States Commits
siOner Gibbons, and as a result Judge
Moran, late United States commissioner
under Judge Stewart, was sent to the
Athletic club to represent the conditions
under which the contest can be held here.
Representatives of the Santa Fe railroad
arrived at Ardmore this morning and left
Immediately for Tishomingo, where the
Chickasaw council is now in session.
They intend, it is said, to endeavor to have
the council convert Corbett and Fitzsim-
mons into members of the tribe, in order
to escape the jurisdiction of the United
States court in the Indian Territory and
obviate the possible legal objection to the
contest

A RIn rhinr for CnlifornIn.

SAN FRANCIsCOl Oct. 5.-W. r. Vice,
ex-vice president Of the old California Ath-
letic club, believes that if the Corbett-
Fitzsimmons fight would be brought off
in California it would mean over 81, 100000
profit to the state "Dud" White, one of
San Franciscos prominent sporting men,
had a talk with Mr. Vice about raising a
purse for the fight to come off in Califor-
mia. The sporting men interested in it are
very secret about their plans just at pres
ent, and it will be some days before any
thing definite is known. Manager w. j,
Kennedy said today that he would give
Corbett and Fitzsimmons chance to box
a limited engagement before the Olympic
club. The Australian, however, would
object to this, as Corbett is too popular at
the Olympic.

Is Corbett trying to Avoid a Fight? &?

NEW ORLEANS, Oct 5.-The opinion is
expressed by certain sporting men that
Corbett is building up foundation to get
out of his fight if possible 1t was noticed
that to every newspaper man who'inter-
viewed him that Corbett harped ON only
one subject, and that is the many strings
that are attached to Fitzsimmons stake
in Phil Dwyer's hands. Corbctt very
bluntly said today that Fitz would have
to have $4,000 up in the Stockholders
hands without an attachment tied to it or
he would not fight Local sporting men
are of the opinion that this provision of
Corbetts will occasion considerable trou-
BILE before Oct. 81, The general feeling in
New Orleans is that the fight will never
take place.
