THE biggest, broadest and most pa
triotic statesman in America, is Sena-
tor John T. Morgan, Of Alabama. This
fact has been recognized and apprecia-
ted by fair-minded people Of intelligence
for years. Had the fact not been ap-
preciated before, there would be but
little reason to doubt it since the late
developments in connection with the
passage of the isthmian canal pill. Sen
ator Morgan has devoted the best years
of his life to this gigantic enterprise.
There was a time when most politicians
looked upon his life-purpose as ridic-
ulously absurd. AS the result of careful
study, he decided that the Nicaragua
route was the best for most purposes,
and that it is the route that should be
adopted. The advocates of the Panama
route, or at least the majority Of them,
were really not in favor Of the canal at
all. Their principal object in support
ing that route was to defeat the whole
undertaking. They calculated that
with his complete knowledge of the ad-
vantages of the Nicaragua over the
Panama route, Morgan would try to
prevent the construction of the canal
at all rather than consent to the adop-
ton of the Panama route. But Morgan
was even larger than his opponents
had calculated upon, for to their very
great chagrin, he decided, if he could
not get the best thing, he would take
the next best thing, and that is how it
happens that the canal Is to be dug.

The next bout was a four-round anaar

Fall River was originally scheduled 70

not come, and Ashley was substituted
The latter was much heavier than FREE

guessing all the time and made the bout
a most Interesting and exciting ono. The
decision was a draw.
The last event on the card was ~
round bout with Young Kelly OF Boston
and Tom King OF Fall River as principals,
and a splendid event IL was. King was
considerably the heavier. but Kelly made
up for this by great cleverness In blocking
and c,ountering. From the third to the
seventh round King had all the lest OF II,
and every round looked like rhe Boston
mans finish. but he kept coming. The
bell apparently saved Kelly In the sew

Kelly came back hard in the eighth
