He had a slight cut on the inside Of
his lip but that was all. Fitz said;
1--WE got very little to say other
than I'm glad l won and won quickly.
/ am also glad for the sake of my
wife and children, and am going to
hurry home to them with all possible
speed. / will look for Jeffries next
and will be ready to meet him as soon
az arrangements can be made. l am
an old man but I'm not a has been,
and l feel that l can take care of
myself against all comers for some
time to come"
In an adjoining room Sharkey was
being rubbed down by his handlers.
He seemed to be crestfallen at his
defeat. He said: "Well, l got licked
sure enough but I've got myself to
blame for it, | should not have mixed

take. l wish the opening round had
lasted about fifteen seconds longer and
would have finished him, as l am
sure l had him going when the bell
separated us"

bloody nose as the result of his meet

When we look at the 20, 900. 900 of our

sure as that the sun shines, whenever
any institution becomes anwieldy be-
cause of it's size and bulk, it will hn-

/ am an expansionist, and | believe
that one Of the causes Of the stringsn-
CIV and shrinkage Of values in this
country is because we have not gene

as we should have done. Willie
there is a demand for our products of
the farm and manufactor of this COIN
try there will always be plenty of
money; but when wheat and corn md
cotton and all kinds Of manufactures
are q drug on the market, and no te-
mand for them, then we have sthn-

highways over the seas shall be lac len
with our products into foreign col in
tries, and the gold is brought back in
the ships, then shall we flourish be-
rennially. These great combinati. ns
are the the only powers in this com
try that can do this thing for US. A
negro and an old mule can make corn

The Northwest has recently lost a
firm friend in the death of Henry
Willard, the great New York fnan-
cier. Mr.. Willard died last Monday
evening at his country home near
the city Of New York. He will be
remembered as one of the promoters
Of the Northern Pacific and other
gigantic transportation companies,
which centered in Tacoma a few
years ago, the collapse of which caus-
ed untold distress to fnanciers in
this section. As president of the
Northern Pacific, Mr.. Willard at
tempted to make Tacoma the great
est city on the Pacific coast, but in
this he most signally failed. How
ever, he was not unkind to the city
of Seattle, and did many things after
he had retired from the road to push
Seattle ahead.

DEMOCRATIC REORGANIZA.
TION.

According to the Associated Press
dispatches, many Of the leading
Democrats of the United States ia
vor the reorganization Of the Demo-
cratic party. There is always much
room for recognizing party that
has always been wrong on all politi
cal questions. Talk about a party
being conceived in sin and brought
forth in iniquity, but the Demo
cratic party is the very quintessence
of such a condition! Jefferson and
Jackson may have been true and
loyal citizens to the best interests of
this country, but followers Of the po-
litical principles laid down by them
have certainly depressed very widely
from their principles. Since the
days of Jackson the Democratic
party has apparently taken the
wrong side, as said above, Of every
public question. They have opposed
every public measure and every pub
lie character in this country who has
made his country's interests public
study and succeeded. The Demo
cratic party reached its climax Of
opposition to its country's best in
terests when it brought on the great
civil war and drenched the United
States in blood at an expenditure of
millions of dollars Of the public
funds. Since the civil war the Dem
ocratic party has opposed the pro-
lection Of American industries, it
has opposed the rights Of man, it
has opposed an honest currency, it
has opposed the expansion Of our
country and it has opposed every
measure that has been advocated b,
the Republicans, all of which meas
ures, when they were carried
out, have proven to be most excel
lent ones for the whole United
States.
So long as the Democratic party is
made up Of such men as come from
Louisiana, Mississippi, North Caro-
lima and Ben Tillman Of South Caro-
lima, so long will it be party of dead
issues and fossilized politicians, who
live in the past, who advocate dead
and forgotten issues and will con-
tinue to be made up Of fogies and
fools, who like the famous Don
Quixote, will expend its force in
charging windmills for armies and
fighting fancies for facts.
If the Democratic party wishes tc
continue a factor in the politics OF
the United States, it must reorganize
and take up the live issues Of the
day, concede to all men, regardless
of their color, creed or their ma
tionality, the absolute right to be
men, and to participate in the af-
fairs Of this government the same as
themselves; concede to all men the
right Of being their own free moral
agents, pry itself out of the ruts of
"agin the government" whether right
or wrong. When it shall have done
this, then it will be in a condition to
cope with the advanced ideas of civ
ilization, and to do this it is abso-
lutely compelled to reorganize, and
reorganize less the greatest nuisance
Of all, his niblets Bombast Bryan.
