merely brought forward to show many
good people who do not believe in
prize fighting that the love Of a fight is
deeply ~ingrained in the masculine
heart, to such an extent that, as we
have shown. several hundred men in
San Francisco-many of them profess
sional and other men of high STANDING
went to the trouble to organize a
club merely to be able to see fair fights
honestly contested. and t see them
under comfortable conditions.
Doubtless there are many worthy
people who look upon prize fighting as
low, brutal and barbarous. 1t may be
all Of these things, and still men may
have a strong desire to gaze upon a
fight. Man is a fighting animal. Until
terrestrial conditions change, he will
nave to remain SO. So long as he re-
mains SO, he will always take pleasure
in seeing a fight. and there are very
fights. Those who would bring about
The abolition OF prize fighting must
bring about the abolition of the fight,
ing instinct in men.
For that matter, we believe that wo-
men like to see fights. Many Of them
have a natural feminine shrinking
from the sight Of blood and bruises, but
we have observed at football games
they speedily recove from this weak
ness, which is temperamental as well
as feminine, and that they will gaze
with breathless admiration upon a six
foot full-back with a bloody nose and
black eye. This being the case, there
is no reason why men should not gaze
with equal interest on a pugilist with
a black eye and a bloody nose.

Gormully & Jeffrey Manufacturing
company. The machine that they sold
last year for 800 will be listed this
duced to $3.50. As this company is one
of the largest makers of bicycles in the
world. employing more than 1900 men
in its two factories, its declaration will
cause a stir in the bicycle industry
which will rank in Importance with
that created by the Overman Wheel
company two years ago, when it re-
duced the price of high grade bicycles

Mosaic law didn't hit young Mr.. Reed,
so no jumped up and drawled: Sup.
posing, sir, we take the law which the
gentleman has quoted and see where the
logical deduction would bring us out.
For instance, one man kills another,
and another man jumps in and kills the
nan who killed the first. and so on I'M
til we como to the last man on earth?
Who is going to kill him? He can't COM

the same law forbids it. Now, deacon,
what's tho last man going to do? Must
he wait until he is struck by lightning?'
THE logic vas unfair, but it won
the debate. "-Lewiston Journal.
