CHOYNSKI AFTER CORDETT
Thinks Jim Made Match With
Sharkey Only to Bar
Him Out.
Van Buskirk Is in Need of a Heavy
Man to Box With While in
Training.

Now that Choynski has managed to Sc
cure fight with McAuIiffe it seems that
he is yearning for yet more gladlators to
conquer. Choynski says that after his
battle with McAuliffe, on August %, he
intends going East to challenge Corbett at
the time the Iatter's contest with Sharkey
is declared off, for the 'Chrysanthemum
is confident that such will be the case.
Moreover, Choynski says he will agree to
put Corbett out inside of eight rounds.
In fact be believes and many of his
friends go so far as openly to avow that
the erstwhiIe champion signed articles OF
agreement for hnish-ighr with Sailor
Tom" in order to prevent Choynski from
meeting him in finish-hght.
The demand for tickets to the McAuliffe-
Choynski contest is very lively and when
the box sheet opens to-day the sale will
certainly be spirited. Many applications
for tickets have been made by women, but
their adnittance will be discouraged by
the management. 1t was decided yeste r
day that Barney Farley wish be gratifie d
and the fight be for decision.
According to the reports given by Wal
ter Watson, Van Buskirk's trainer, the
latter is rapidly acquiring the finer scien-
tiic points of pugilism, but the need
of some large man to box with him Is
badly felt. Many clever men box with
him daily, but they are not OF sufficient
weight TO make him hustle.
Watson will probably De in Van Bus
kirk s corner the night ne meets Steiner.
IF the com plimeuts paid Steiner by FItz-
sim mons are taken into consideration he
will evidently make Van Buskirk hustle
all he wants at least one evening.

II belong TO the Republican party be-
cause under its inspiration these United
States, once wrangling and discordant
com monwealth: these United States, once
shamed with slavery and deoreplt with
the disease OF secession-these United
States have become a country where no
slaves presence dishonors labor, where no
freeman's utterances are choked by the
hand OF power, where no man doffs his
hat to another except through the eour-
tesy of equals, where education is free,
where manhood is respected and where
labor is protected.
Under the patriotic rule OF the RepGb-
lican party these United States have be-
come a Nation whose credit reigns at the
head of the worlds finances, whose flag
floats proudly upon every sea and whose
armies would come at the drumbeat out Of
the hives of industry to swarm in defense
of the country on every shore.

National Republican League.

The Executive Committee OF the
National Republican League neld meet
ing last night in their new quarters on
the first floor of the Pioneer building, a
Fourth street. TREY L. Ford was in the
chair and considerable business was trans
acted.
Colonel Dibble on behalf of the Bear
Uniformed Club offered the services of
the club TO act as escort OF the National
Republican League at all their meetings.
This and other propositions were re-
ferred to com mittee consisting OF Messrs.
Castle, Backus and Bert.
Eugene F. Bert was appointed COM
mittee of one to have the banner of the
league stretched across Fourth street.
The following were appointed q COM
mittee for the purpose of decorating the

DAILY.
A communication was read from Frank
R. Handley suggesting the formation of a
drill corps regiment divided into companies
and headed with a grenedier company Of
forty or fifty picked men.
II was decided that the new quarters of
the club should be formally opened on
Saturday night of next week. And in
speaking Of this hilarious event Chairman
Ford, who used to live in the wild noun
tains of California where they do those
things, suggested that big punch
bowl should be procured and ap-
propriateIy filed for the entertain
ment of the guests. When this sugges-
ton was made, Harbor Commissioner
Daniel T. Cole, with an expression OF
horror on his face, arose and opposed the
puuchbowl proposition. People would
drink too much punch and would get
drunk, said Mr.. Cole, and that would not
be desirable. It would be too expen sive,
besides. 1t was decided to keep sober and
rule out the punch.
It was decided to hold the regular meet
ines of the club on Tuesday evenings, the
first regular meeting TO take place on the
second Tuesday after the opening, which
will be on Saturday night, August %.
Vacancies in the list OF vice-presidents
were filled as follows:

Tuesday evening. The vice presidents
will also meet at the same time.
An evening newspaper contained in its
last nights issue an article to the effect
that Edward DonnelIy, eattle-dealer. had
assaulted Alva Watt. Mr.. Watt said last
night that no such event as that had taken
place.
The work OF enrolment in the RepupIi

Dmocrats Catspawing PopuIfsts.
Advices from the East continue TO show
that the Democrats in many OF the
Southern States have spurned the offers of
the Populists to fuse. The latest is a dis
patch from Fort Worth, Tex, stating that
q committee of the Peoples party men
called upon Chairman Dudley of the
Democratic State Executive Committee
and requested him to appoint similar
committee to confer on the proposition to
fuse on an electoral ticket composed of
seven Populists and eight Democrats.
Dudley fatty refused, and the Populist
visitors, losing their temper, threatened to
fuse with the Republicans for Mckinley
i3 the Republicans would support the
Populist party State ticket. Tbs Democ-
racy have no use for the Populists when
the Democracy feel that they have no need
for the votes of that organization. They
are in this fight for the offices. Principle
does not cut any figure in the matter at all.
