New Bedford, by winning all the home
games and showing up strongly away, con-
tinues 10 cling to the lead in the National
Polo League. 1t is q great struggle fol
honors and never before in the history OF
the popular winter sport have the teams
been more evenly matched. The Tigers
are out TO regain the lead this week and
with Capt. Whiting playing in such bril-
liant form, the cranks are hopeful of suc-
cess in this respect. New Bedford will
meet Fall River twice this week and
Tommy Cote says all that one will have
to do is TO put their ears to the ground and
listen for the thud he is going to give the
Whalers.
The Grays have been showing up in bet
tar form, lat with Capt. Hobe in the game
they will iot terrorize Pawtucket. The
SaIems are playing pluckily and are max
ing q great cifort to emerge from last posi-
tion. The Grays will have to keep on their
mettIe from this out or else sink into last
place.
Some great struggles will be witnessed
this woek- holiday week-the Providence
and Pswtuckets and the Fall Rivers and
New Bedfords exchanging games al usual
ON Christmas day, while Salem will have
Providence and Pawtucket will 60 to New
Bedford ON Christmas eve.
The work of the players up to date Is as

Manager Carroll's Witches went dowI
before the Tigers at the Auditorium Sat
urday night i'm well played game. Ther'
was a good sized crowd in attendance
which goes to show that the cranks are be
ginning to realize the fact that the Salem
make the best of them hustle to record |
triumph.
The Witches played great game a
times. and their work in spots excellet
that of the Tigers, but Capt. Whiting anC
his men evidently tantilized the visitors
for no sooner would the Witches get with
in speaking distance than the home team
would take squirt and place the fruits o
victory few notches higher.
The play in the third period was terrific
Griffin scoring twice for Salem within
minute and half and tieing the score
After this Capt Whiting opened the throt
tie to the limit, and the Pawtuckets cam'
under the wire mt two-minute clip, leav
ing the Witches and big Dick Furbish b,
the wayside. The summary:

WHY BUY PIANOS.

And Organs from commission
agents? Why take chances in buy.
ing Piano or Organ from strang-
ers? We have been established in
Texas for thirty years. ALI our in
terests are here and we cannot af-
ford to take advantage of you. We
will sell you a Piano or Organ
without notes. Commission men
demand notes, because the manu-
facturers demand them OF the COM
mission agents. These notes are
either deposited in bank for col.
lection or are discounted by money
lenders. Notes are exacted for the
sole purpose of being used
as collateral. We exact no notes
on time payments, and charge nc
interest where payments are made
promptly. We again say, why buy
from stranger a Piano or Organ
whose name you never heard be.
fore and take chances of being de.
ceived and of getting a poor In,
strument for which you pay a big
price You can get better instru'
ment from us accompanied by an
unquestionable guarantee for less
price on easy payments without

republican party is responsible for
the deplorable condition Of the
colored men politically.
Col Newcomb says to reporter
of the LIGHT: "The republican
party promised the negro forty
acres Of land and mule, as sub
stantial start in the race Of life,
but failed to keep the promise.
We gave him liberty and the
right to vote and showed him of
the plank to sink or swim, so far
as making living went, but we
took charge of him politically and
made him look to us for political
support; he must earn his own
cornbread and bacon, but we were
to furnish him with political sup.
port; we passed the force bill; we
denounced the southern white peo-
pie for bulldozing; we denounced
them for llynching; we were all
froth but the negro became the
victim of local surroundings
and voted the democratic
ticket; we toted him to republican
conventions and allowed him tt
howl for the republican party, but
turned him loose to vote as he
pleased; he has never learned tt
take care Of himself politically
and don't blame him. We owe Il
to the negro to put him on hi:
metal as a man; if he is capable o
self-government as he is of self
sustenance, he is capable Of max
ing a political choice without be
ing wet-nursed by the republican
party. A proper understanding o
this important question will b.
good for the country.
