San Francisco, July s6.--Thcrc is
wide difference OF opinion in this city
as TO the contest last night between JEFF
fries and Fitzsimmons. The charge that
the fight was n fake and that il had been
prearranged for Fitzsimmons to go out
in the eighth round does not meet with
the general belief, although there is no
doubt that Mayor Schmiiz was warned
that the fight was fixed TO end in the
eighth round. Even those who charge
fraud admit that il was a magnificent
exhibition while it lasted. Fitzsimmons
was hitting Jedries almost at will, but
while his blows cut badly, they did not
seriously injure the big champion. Fitz-

The Democratic opportunitv.

The people of the state of Illinois
have an interesting political picture
before them. \ lesson in political
art is now being taught the voters
that they must never forget. The
republican party is torn asunder,
party leaders are manifesting hatred
for one another. two factions stand
ready to knife one another at the
first opportunity, men who have
fought political battles side by side
and shoulder To shoulder are now
eager to destroy one another-these
are some of the details of the pic
ture. Spoilism is the primary cause
for this situation. and internal party
strife combined with greed for office
form another potent factor in drag
ging a party TO division, and dis
grace.
Herein are two>great lessons to- the
democracy of Illinois. One is, never
to let spOilism mar its campaigns
or official career. The other is,
never to let the splitting wedge of
party strife divide its ranks. 1t
should be the duty of every democrat
to see and maintain two things al
ways-harmony and honor. The
lack of these two has placed the re-
publican party of the state where it
is today.
Democracy will surely profit by
the example and the situation. The
Mattoon Daily Star makes some forci-
BILE remarks upon the subject of
democratic opportunity as fOllows:
For once in the life of the average
man. the opportunity for the democ-
racy TO carry the state of Illinois pre-
sents itself. The dominant party is
divided into two factions-the one
representing the governorette, and
the other the old gang of Office
grabbers who began their day under
Gov Fifer, and are now hitched to the
pie-wagon of Senator Cullom. Meth
er faction has leader who can be
classed above mediocrity, and the

SAYS PHILIPPINE ISLANDS
ARE A BUNCH OF TROUBLE

Edward Kiner. of Evanston. ILL.,.
private in troop & of the 18th United
States cavalry, has written home
new and unique description of the
Philippine islands, where he has been
since May. He says that his expert
ence in the service has been so eXcft-
ing that the months have seemed like
Weeks. Kiner's letter is in part as
follows:
The Philippine islands are Il bunch
of trouble ON the horizon. They are
bounded ON the north by rocks and
destruction, ON the east by tvphoons
and hurricanes, ON the south by can
nibals and earthquakes and on the
west by sharks and smugglers
The islands are composed of mud
and mountains and are noted for mos
quItoeS. ants. feas, bats. lizards. tar
antulas and alligators, and by the
way of variety there is plenty of
smallpox. beriberi. leprosy, cholera
and bubonic plague. Malarial fever
is so prevalent that on many occa-
sIons the islands have been shaken
by the vibrations of the population.

General Frederick Funston grows
indignant over the charge that he
violated the articles of war i'm the
manner of his capture of Aguinaldo.
He disguised his men as Filipino sol
diers. The British explain recent
defeat by an allegation that the Beers
did the same thing and complain that
it * violation of civilized warfare
and that death should be the penalty
in the case of the Beers. The charge
Is not substantiated. In the ease of
Funston it is admitted. In any event
it is not particularly important how
Funston arranged the piece of police
work that resulted in the capture of

NERVOUSNESS
For 1t We Especially Rec
ommend Vinol.
Why 1t Is So High
Iy Endorsed.

There is no need of our telling you that
a nervous condition is serious.
Those who are not nervous will not be
interested in what we have to say.
Anyone who is so unfortunate, how
ever as not to be able to control their
nerves, viii realize that any advice that
can be given to help them viii be invalu-
able.
We want to impress upon our friends
and neighbors in this city that VinOl,
that great tonic reconStructor is one Of
the most wonderful nerve strengthcnerS
that we have ever encountered. In
cidentally we would like to mention the
fact that anyone who is suffering from a
depleted condition OF any Cf the organs
of the body ought not TO lose sight of
Vinol as means to tone up the body in
part or in whole.
We have hal cases come to our Obser-
walton where Vinol has been taken for
nervousness with the most wonderful
results. Indigestion, slceplesSneSs, head
aches and various other ills that are all
frequently result of diSordered nerves
vanish when the nerves are reiuvigorated
The following case is one which bears
ON this subject.
DUNKIRK, y. VI cannot speak too
highly of Vinol. For a long time | was
a sufferer from nervousness. l had neGv-
Gus dyspepsia. | tried many medicines
but nothing did me as much good as
Vinol. 1t strengthened my nerves and
gave tone to my whole system. / urge
