EWRHARDT DEFEATED.
Beaten in Twenty-Five Rounds by Kid
Lavigne Last Night.

New York, October 27.-The Bohemian
Sporting club held its first contest of i'm
pertanoe tonight. when George. better
known az 'Kid" Lavighe of Saginaw,
Mich, and Jack Everhardt Of New
Orleans. the we'll known lightweight met
in twenty-five round bout at 1888
pounds. for purse of $500. The con-
test was advertised as being for the light
weight championship Of the world. but
the weight at which the men fought,
precluded any suoh conclusion, the legal
weight limit being 1873 pounds. In the
24th round, right swing on the jaw,
sent Everhardt reeling and another
straightened him up. A third staggered
him again, when the referee jumped be-
tween them and stopped the bout,
awarding the fight to Laviane. Ever
hardt took punishment enough to have
finished half dozen men. His frequent
reooveFies were surprising.

Minneapolis, Mimi, October 27.-Sec-
retary Lynch of the Peoples party state

past 4s hours l have received 500 letters
from different sections of the state say

gagees that in case Bryan Is elected that
they will promptly foreclose every mort

Gel all policies in the same event. The
letters state that in every township in
the state where farmers are heavily mort
gagged, and where the silver sentiment
Is strong, one of these agents can be
found.
The Republicans have made careful
poll of these townships and know who
have mortgages when they aresdue, how
the mortgagor intends to vote, his ma
aionalty, whether he can be Influenced,
eto. This information is given to this
agent, so he knows how to work each
person. Some he tells that Bryan in
tends to denlonetizs gold and there will
be no gold with which to pay gold mort
cages. He tells others that II Bryan liz
elected, gold will go to premium and
it will take two silver dollars to get one
gold dollar, that therefore it will take
twice as many dollars to pay mortgages
if Bryan is elected as it would If MoKin-
ley Is elected.
:" He tells the farmer that nothing but
pure love for the farmer induces these
banks, loan companies and insurance
companies to call on him and warn
him against the danger. These compa-
MES are opposed to any law THAT would
compel the farmer to pay them twice
as many dollars as he borrowed. "
"What effect do you think 1t will have
on the election?" was asked.
Mr.. Lynch replied: 1T will give the

Four Years. Misery Such as Bryan
Promises-Wise Words From Chief
Arthur and His Associates.
Chicago, October 27.-The Republican
National committee today gave out the
following:
Peoria. ILL.,, October 26
10 the workingmen of the United States:
To refute the fals3 statement as we be-
lieve it to be, and to correct the impress
sion that our friends and acquaintances
may have formed concerning our singa-
lures to a campaign document going the
rounds of the press and circulated broad
cast on the streets entitled 'tProolama-
tions," in which we are made to appear
that we are in favor of free silver at any
ratio and su bstantially the establish emit
OF two standards of money, contradictory
as terms may be, we wish to be recorded
by all interested In our position as being
emphatically and unequivooally against
any such measures but are for the sound
money plank promulgated by the Re-
publican convention at ST.. Louis.
Our signatures were obtained nearly
three years ago to document pretending
to be memorial to Congress then in
session, which in our belief and memory
was much milder paper than this
" PROCLAIM alton" referred to. No matter
what our opinions may have been on the
money question at the time of our sign
ing the memorial nearly three years ago.
we have learned enough since on the
sn bjeot to warrant Us in denouncing the
attempt at the free coinage of silver at 16
TO l, believing it to be directly against
the interests of labor and believing that
under the condition of free coinage, this
country will be subjected to one of the
most frightful panios that any country
in this world has ever seen.
Our belief in this statement is
strengthened by the admission made by
VIM. ]. Bryan, candidate for President,
in a recent speech Ia thB Northwest,
wherein he Is reported to have said that
he thought the free silver condition
would bring for the present ataRnation
and panic, but from which in four years
we would recover. We do not believe this
country can stand an additional four
years Of misery and distress, and are
therefore opposed to the sentiment con-
tained in the aforesaid Proclamation. +"

December Goth next. I believe you
celebrate the 376th anniversary, of the
Landing of the Pilgrims. The shades OF
three centuries are looking down upon
You and us. With the Pilgrims came
the glorious institutions of freedom OF
speech, freedom of faith and worship,
individual responsibility and inviolabls
personal andhpublio honor. With then
came the priceless gem of American
liberty with them came the love of fam1-
ly, church and school and the blessed In
stitutions of public law, and order OF d
reverence for courts and respects for
constituted authoIity.
These are to this day the leading
characteristics of our people. the very
corner stone of the national structure.

love for any of theseP Shall we turn
our old time respect into contempt LOT

Bryan Clubs in BernaIillO.

Tuesday, September 2, was gloomy
day for criminals in the territory Of New
Mexico, also for :goldbugs IN Bernalillo
county. Four Bryan clubs we're organ
lied with most fattering memberships.
One of said clubs was organized in pre-
cinct No. II, Pena Blanca, one at Allerton
and one at Lajabada. The clubs were
organized by committee sent out by
Bryan club No. Of Albuquerque, and
Bryan club No. 2 of old Albuquerque, and
consisted of Hon. Nestor Montoya, Mr..
Simon Sandoval and s. B. Gillette. The
committee reported having been warmly
received and that each of the clubs have a
large and enthusiastic membership. One
of the committee remarked that ''if they
tell you the native people are in favor Of
the single gold standard tell them we
could not find any goldbugs and that we
were looking for gold bugs, that the
clubs consist mainly of natives, who are
sincere and will work for the advance
ment of the silver cause regardless of
party lines. They have earnestly en-
gagged in the work and will build up the
cause should any weak places be found

SWAN SINGS TO SLOWER.
Another Republican Smashes the Ex-
Governors Arguments
Hard Hit.

As ex-Gov. Slower "awaits reply" to
his article "Protection vs.. Free Trade" in
last Tuesdays citizen, Capt. A. M. Swan,
a lifelong Republican, tries to accommo-
date him thus:
$50 far as devotion to both protection
and free silver is at issue. governor, am
in full accord with you. agree with you
that we need both protection and the free
coinage of both gold and silver. How
can we best promote the cause for which
we mutually striveP You seem to think
that vote for Mckinley would solve the
problem. do not careful study OF
the political situation now existing con-
vinces me that there is absolutely no
chance for the passage of any laws look
ing toward protection during Major Nc
Kinleys term of office should he be elect
ed. It is not conceivable that the sena-
tors, a majority of whom are for free sill
YER as condition precedent to any
change in the tariff laws will, at Major
McKinley's behest, change their convic-
tions and vote to suit US, governor.
I see no possibility of any change
within two years and do not believe
any will occur in four years. Now, gov
ernor, it is almost certain that the ele,-
ton of Mr.. Bryan would give us free sill
YER, which you and I both desire. We
certainly could not expect this from Ma
ior McKinley's administration. Major
Mckinley, in recent speech, is authority
for the statement that a premium on gold
gives incidental protection. All the
great Republican papers assure US that
if Bryan is elected gold will 60 to pre-
MUM. If they are correct, and Bryan is
elected, we secure free coinage of silver,
one of the two things you and desire,
and we also secure incidental protection
(which is the other thing we seek), If not
in full, at least in part. Your tariff argu-
ment is all right, agree, but the tariff
can not, in my judgment, be an issue
with the senate as now constituted, how
ever much we desire it. When the time
comes that tariff legislation is among the
possibilities I will join you in working
for its accomplishment, but ! can not
join you in refusing to accept the good
we can attain because we can not get as
full protection as We DESIRE"
