Brooklyn will most solidly stand be-
hind Hon. Seth Low in his contest for
the mayoralty. Plat, with all the
state and national power of the Re
publican party at is back is working
to defeat Worth, who is the Republi-
can leader in Brooklyn who is mass
ing the Republicans there for Low.
Boss Plat says that he cares not how
they vote in the nominating conven-
ton, but he wants the primaries to
vote solidly against continuing the
power .Of Brooklyn Republicanism in
the hands of Worth. Many of Lows
friends are falling into the trap.
When Worth is beaten the Plattists
will fall upon the Low forces and beat
them in detail. This is the plan

What hurt England most in the
loss of her American colonies was
that these colonies discontinued Great
ing raw material solely, for the use
of the British manufactures, and be-
gan to manufacture themselves for

character. Nothing could more con-
duce to make the world reliable if it
is not tinged with national prejudice.

Good results will follow the attacks
that the free trade press is making on
the personal effect clauses of the

If the free trade press accomplish this
much will be forgiven them. They
build more wisely than they know.

Maher and SharIxey.

1t now seems certain that Tom Shar-
key, the sailor, will meet Maher. Shar-
key is strong man, sort of human
bull, who can stand hard knocks. When
that is said, the subject is exhausted.
He made fair showing by rough and
tumble process against CorEett when
the latter was not in condition. On the
strength of that he met Fitzsimmons
and was knocked out as fairly as ever II
man went down III ring. He now
claims to be champion of the world. He
has neither science as a boxer nor the
keen skill of true fighter. He is big
strong target for blows--only that and
nothing more. Maher should win. If
one of his good right swings lands-and
Sharkey has not the skill to keep out of
harms way-it will all be over. New
