PREPARING FOR
The mill"
OyerdOrf and Reilly Are Both
COnfidant of Victory in the
Next Contest

The coming fight between OYerdorf
and Reilly which is scheduled 10 come
off at the opera house on the night of
February 10th is exciting great deal
of interest. \ considerable crowd con-
gregates every afternoon at Reilly's
training quarters over the bowling alley
to see him work. Overdorfs training
quarters are in the opera house where
he does his work each forenoon.
Both fighters have been in training
for week or more, and both claim to
be in perfect condition. While it is
known that Reilly is a good man,
speculation as to the outcome would be
something of a hazard, for it has been
evident in Overdorfs battles here that
he has not as yet had to fight very
hard to win.
A considerable delegation will ar
rive from Spokane, Colfax and other
tributary points to witness the mill. as
it promises to be of unusual interest
to the sporting fraternity.

casion of Placing Parkers Name Formally
Before the People

Parker fairly before the country as a
receptive candidate in a manner that
would make it possible to show that he
is popular with, all classes.
Much work in a quiet way has been
done for Judge Parker, among his most
ardent supporters being Mr.. Sheehan
and August Belmont. First to be done,
in the opinion of those most practiced
in the arts of politics, was to convince
the business public that Judge Parker
is safe man. 1t is said that to this
end his position on many subjects of
interest to the business world may be
explained at the dinner to be given
after the Sheehan luncheon, at which
Judge Parker and his wife will be the
principal figures.
There has been much discussion as
to whether in the event of the nomina-
ton of Judge Parker by the democratic
national convention. his campaign
should be directed by a business man
with no political Affiliations or by a
politician of the old school, such as
German or Smith Some thought it
would be better to make a complete
turn, placing the management of the
campaign in the hands of some shrewd
man better known in all street than
elsewhere. Other counsel is said to
have prevailed however. with the re-
Sultt hat it has aready been decided
so it is said, to make a compromise.
and, should Judge Parker be his partys
choice, his campaign is to be directed
by August Belmont, who is closely con-
nected with most of the great corporate
interests and who is no novice at the
game Of politics.
