In 1864 congress gave the Northern Pa
cifc railway company $4,000, 900 acres OF
the public domain. When that company
went into the hands of receiver and was
recognized under another title by the
laws OF Wisconsin. it is claimed that the
land grant lapsed to the government.
Senator Turner defeated the efforts OF
Senator Wilson to have congress validate
the land grant in behalf of the new CON-
pany and asked that action be deferred
until the next legislature of Washington
met to memorabilia congress on the sub
ject. The Spokesman-Review points out
that prominent citizen Of The Northwest

The desperate straits the Republican

The desperate straits the Republican
leaders are in is shown by their campaign
lie that the fusion party platform en-
dorses the single tax propaganda. The
fact remains that the amendment to the
constitution regarding local option in tax.
atlon. falsely called single tax, was voted
for by nearly all the republicans in the
last legislature, and the majority Of the
votes cast against it in both houses were
cast by populists.

Up to the time of the present county
administration those doing business with
Yakima county found it necessary to add
from 20 to 80 per cent to make up for the
discount on the warrants which they re-

the county secures Its supplies and work
as cheaply as anybody else and pays in
those same warrants-but they are worth
100 cents on the dollar.

The conquering nation generally sb-
serbs the vices of the conquered. The
Hispano-Am war has revived the
ancient art of gambling in all its spice
and variety in this country. Even in
Yakima county the nickle in the slot
machines are multiplying with such ra-
pidity that Uncle Sam has caught the
craze and established one Of the machines
in the postoffic. The school boys have
the fever and scores OF little chaps may be
seen on the campus, shooting marbles in
rudely designed cigar boxes with slots,
which the Yakima youth daily gamble
with on the green. 1t is to be hoped that
the fad may not spread to the ordinary
forms of social entertainments gotten up
for revenue only.

Game Is Dead Beyond Reconsideration
i'm the Quaker City.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 1-Boxing is dead
beyond resuscitation in Philadelphia. Joe
Butler knocked out Doe" Payne with right
elbow blow on the jugular vein and put him
so soundly asleep that he babe fair never to
awake. Mayor Warwick was notified of the
TACT and he caused note to be sent to the
manager of the Arena Athletic club telling
him that he would not be allowed to hold any
more bouts until not fed to the contrary. This
note is as follows: 10 esr
Lee Myers. Arena A. c., Broad and Cherry
Streets: Acting under Instructions from Hon
Charles F. Warwick, mayor of the, city of
philadelphia, l beg to inform you that box
ing contests at the Arena will not be per-
m1tted unless otherwise ordered by the mayor
or the director OF the department of public
safety James Hoyt Secretary"
The general opinion g that Joe Butter was
out of his mind when he dealt Payne that
awful blow. In the first round. --hiss ia tics
were foul all the way, and every one wonder
ed why the referee did not interfere He
threw mis- man three times, fell on him a.,d
hit him once when he was down. To top mat
tiers off, Butler struck Payne after the gong
had sounded. Such tactics would not have
been permitted in street brawl- r.
Payne was weak in the second round and
Butler put him to sleep with right elbow
hook back Of the ear that broke the ear
drum. The injured man remained uncon-
scious till morning, when he came to and was
allowed to go to his hotel. 1t was feared for
while that he would not recover.

CORBETT WAS WORsTED.
Tried an Old Scheme and Came Out
of II Second Best.


NEW YORK, Oct. Late developments In
tho Gilsey house brawl between James ].
Corbett and "KidP Mccoy throw much new
light upon the disgraceful affair. Corbett
tried an old scheme OF his-the same scheme
that he endeavored to work off on Bob Fitz-
simmons at Green's hotel in Philadelphia not
so long ago. With Mccoy his scheme was
a decided failure. He assaulted Mccoy, and
friends who were with him attempted to aid
him by holding Mccoy. 1t all occurred In
a moments time. Corbett struck at Mccoy and
missed him. Then the Kid smashed him
twice, quick as fash George Considine, Corr
belts manager. and other friends of Corbett
caught hold OF Mccoy and held him fast.
While they were holding him Corbett at
tempted to strike Mccoy, McCoy's friends,
excepting w. B. Gray, his manager, were
not with him when, the fracas opened Nc
Coy's friends had passed on into the cafe of
the Gilsey when -Grany and Mccoy stopped
to speak to Considine and Corbett. They got
to Mccoy quickly after the trouble started
They found the Kid firmly in the grasp
OF Corbetts friends. and Corbett trying to
land on him. Then Mccoy started to rough
1t. He threw his knee into Corbett at the
same time guarding his face with his arms.
The knee landed in Corbett's groin doubling
him up like jack knife. McCoy's friends
quickly split him away from the hold Cor
belts friends had on him. =
