Sharkey Whips FitzsimmOns.

The ShaIkey and Fitzsimmons fight
in San Francisco, California, on We'd
nesday, resulted in decision for Shar-
key on foul by Fitzsimmons in the
eighth round. All the time Sharkey
had the tall man at his mercy. The
result will be surprise to many, who
thought that Fitzsimmons was irwin
chile. He will hardly want to fight
Corbett now. The purse was for ten
thousand dollars.

The Cuban Situation.

The condition of affairs in Cuba is
fast approaching direct and perma-
nent contamination. From meager
and often unsatisfactory reports from
the island, it would seem that Spain
was about to crush the rebellion with
one mighty blow, and that Weyler,
the butcher, the man who makes war
on helpless women and children, is in
the field looking for the insurgents and
so far has not encountered them. We
are inclined to think that as a most
rigid censorship is maintained over the
news not surreptitiously Struggled
into this country, it is well for us to
take all that comes from that source
with pinch of salt. The Cuban
forces now number over 60, 900 men and
they could not take care of more than
that number. The men are all now
thoroughly disciplined and have their
whole heart in the cause. They are
now inpregnably intrenched in the
highlands of Pinar del Ray and with
mines and countermines and every
means at hand to repulse the Spanish
onslaughts. 1t is not likely that Maceo
can be dislodged from his position.
So far the Cuhans have outgeneraled
their opponents and now the troops
under Weyler are foraging the coun-
try with orders to kill all Cuban SYM
pathizers, women and children, and
all manner of fiendish atrocities are be-
ing daily committed. Spain is finan-
cially embarrassed and driven to des-
peratiOn. In New York the Cubans
have hosts of friends who supply them
with plenty of money, food and am
unition. Filibustering parties are sent
to the island frequently and every
means are being used to help the in
surgents in their strike for liberty.
Great interest is centered in the coming
Congress of the United States as to
whether they will demand the recog-
milton of them as belligerents. The
sympathies of our people are with the
struggling Cubans, but by many wise
heads, any interference with their af-
fairs under present conditions by this
country is looked upon with growing
apprehension. But Cuba should be
free.

A Bridge over the Hudson River.


Secretary Swami, of the New York
and New Jersey Bridge Company,
said Tuesday:
1.-THE New York and New Jersey
Bridge Construction Companies have
to- day made contract with the I'm
ion Bridge Company, of this city, for
the building of bridge over the Hud-
son River, at a cost not to exceed
SIS, 100000 The bridge will be mar
vel of modern mechanical engineering

ton of the travelling public superior to
anything now existing. At the ter
minal in New York City will be a
grand Union Station into which all
express and accommodation trains on
all roads now coming INTO Jersey City
will run. This will obviate the tr0u-
Bile and delay Of the present ferry sys-

BALTIMORE DEMOCRATS are quietly
discussing the possibilities of the two
factions of the party getting together
in order to make a successful fight in
Baltimore and throughout the State.
Many are waiting to hear the PROPOSE
tons which are to be presented in Or
der to bring about the desired harmony.
There can be no question that the par
ty should get together, but harmony
can only be accomplished by all get
ting together on the same platform.
Harmony must include all in the new
deal, else the talk of harmony is all
nonsense.

SENATOR CHANDLER boldly comes
to the point and urges an international
conference on bimetallism. He be-
lieves it should be held at an early date
with all nations represented. Mem
bers of the conference should be hon.
orable men, who would not allow the
subject to drop. The Senator thinks
If something is not done in this line
soon there will be split between the
countries of the earth. The New
York Journal gives Mr.. Chandler's
views at length. These are the first
fruits of the recent silver agitation.

THE Democrats in Frederick County,
who got up such hue and cry about
the six year County Commissioners,
will now see the great advantages
the county has derived by having set
of thoroughly competent men, who
have become perfectly acquainted
with the needs and requirements of the
people. The present board has been
able to deal with important questions
with knowledge and understanding
which has been beneficial to the tax
payers of the county.

we should not involve ourselves in a

Which Is Your Way?

The man who is satisfied to let some
body else do his thinking for him will
read but one or two papers. He will
gulp down what the editor of his party
paper tells him, go to the polls and vote
the party ticket, and then retire within
himself, quite sure that he has done his
duty. But the man who wants to know
the "other side" and be able to make up
his mind for himself will not be content
with this plan, least of all during great
political campaign like the present. He
will read PUBLIC OPINION (published
at New York;, get all sides of every i'm
portant public question political, social,
religious, educational and others. And
then he will form his own conclusions
and act upon them. Specimen copy free.

Church Notes. DR.. Sarkis M. Hago-
plan, an exiIed Armenian from Aintab,
spoke most interestingly at the South
church Sunday evening He character
lied this century as the century Of mas
sacres. Since its beginning 100000
Christian subjects Of the sultan have
been massacred, $4,000 Armenians being
slaughtered within two years. The
speaker predicted that Armenia would
eventually come under Russian rule. If
this happened there would be material
progress for the Armenian but no relig-
ious progress. In closing, he made a
stirring appeal for money, saying that
Armenia's greatest need today was
bread. A collection of over $27 was re-
ceived and forwarded the next day to
the American Board. DR.. Hagopian is
