The Glove Contest Between Van Bus
Kirk and Steiner.

The glove contest between Theodore
Van Buskirk and Jack Stelzner, to be
held under the management Of the Sac
ranento Athletic Club, will take place
in the clubs gymnasium hall in the Old
Pavilion on Wednesday evening"
Van Buskirk has been doing his train
ing at his old home in Marysville, while
Stelzner is quartered at a public house
bout in the ring in San Francisco not
very long ago, and it was declared a
draw, though many who witnessed the
mill say that Stelzner seemed to have a
little the best of it.
But Van Buskirk has been improv-
ing all the time, and his frineds are con-
fldenj Of his ability to lower the colors
of Bob Fitzsimmons' sparring partner.
If he demonstrates his ability to do it,
the big Olympian will be in line
to tackle almost any of the
heavyweight topnotchers. 1t is
said that when he fought William
Johnson here few weeks ago his actual
weight was 200 pounds or more and
that, too, after long and careful train
ing.
With youth, hight, weight, strength,
seIf-confdence and a fair degree of
cleverness in his favor it looks as if
Van Buskirk ought to be able to hold
his own with anyone in the business,
unless it might be Corbett and Fitzsim-
mons and possibly Maher STILL in
Stelzner he viii meet an old and hard
ened ringster whose cleverness and gen.
eralship may give him trouble.

Tt is distinctly true that the session
of the Legislature just brought to a
close was unproductive of benefit to
the people of the State as a whole. At
this no one is surprised. It assembled
at Charleston without definite aim, ex-
cept that it was to do any and all
things calculated to advance the polit-
zeal interests of the party largely in
the majority, and no opportunity was
lost which would contribute to this end.
But aside from this, the body was rath-
er a negative one. 1t could interject
partisanship into the eleemosynary and
educational institutions of the State,
create fat positions i'm the nature of re-
wards for partisaus, and appropriate
money. but one viii look long through
the list of measures enacted into laws
before one is found which will be of
general benefit. or which will great
ly or even slightly. advance the mater
ial interests of the State. 1t was large
ly opportunity. as we'll as money, vast
ed. To be sure. there were some meas
ures passed which are not open To crit
icism. but they are generally local In
their character, and have neither in
terest for nor application to any consid-
cradle number of our people. One or
two of this c!ass apply here at home,
Others anect cities and towns in var
fous portions Of the State. but a law of
universal application and of commer-
dabIe qualities viii be looked for in
vain. The Republican Legislature of
1897 was a pickup from the political
bargain counter,vhy which the people
were badly swindled.

New York Times.
Among the questions which the Cleve-
land administration Will leave unsettled
our neighbor. the sun, includes "a revenue
sufficient for the needs Of the government
economically administered"
The sun is in error. That question has
been settled by the revenue laws at pres
emit i'm force. The revenue of the United
States for the fiscal year ended June 30,
1896. was $32G. $40 200. That sum is ample
for "the needs of the government econo-
mically administered. II would have
met the total ordinary expenditures of the
government in any year from 1868 TO 1890
inclusive. In all but seven Of those years
it would have yielded q surplus Of over
fifty million dollars.
The trouble is not with the revenue. The
administration is not at fault. The gross,
reckless. wanton extravaganza Of Congress
has disiointed our finances. Pensions
make the deficits. Pensions furnish the
excuse for higher taxes. There, in truth.
is a question that President Cleveland,
though ne has struggled with it manful-
~. must turn over to Mr.. Mckinley un-
solved.
In the fiscal year 1884, under the Nc
Kinley law, we had our first deficit since
1869. The revenue was 1921 722,0l9, the eX-
peuditure 1867. 746 S67. and the deficit $50, s03
pol. But we paid out the enormous sum
of S1H.1TI2S5 for pensions that year The
next year we had a deficit of $40. sos. 223,
caused by the payment Of Sl41395,229 for
pensions. In the last fiscal year we paid
out Sl3g. 43l. 00l for pensions, and d deficit Of
SOS. 203.2 i6 was the result. In seven and
oue-half months of the present fiscal year
We have paid out S94l02. Si5. and we have
already an excess of expenditures over
receipts of S4S,jlL92l.
In seven years and seven months we
have paid $l.O43 202.711 i'm pensions.
This is % Republican expenditure, with
Democratic collision. The Sun admits
that for the great increase in the cost of
