NEW YORK CONGRESSMAN WILL

well Known Democrat Will Fight for
the People at Large and
Against Trusts.

WASHINGTON. D. c.. Dec. 90
Asked concerning the published re-
port that he was a candidate for MAYOR
of New York, Representative w. r.
Hearst said:
L am not a candidate for mayor of
New York, nor for the presidency of
the United States, nor for any other
office. l intend to serve my term as
congressman and then retire. not from
politics, but from office-( gliding.
do not purpose doing this through
lack of interest in political matters.
for think that the duty of every man

controlling the policies of newspapers.
is to take most active interest in the
politics of his country.
Il will retire because l think nv
political work will be less subject to
Misrepresentation and consequently
more effective if l am not myself a
candidate for any office whatever.
Case In Point.
An article in The Tribune is an
example of the point 1 wish to make.
The writer goes to some trouble to
find reasons for my attitude in regard
to the New York administration and
the gas steal. There are no personal
hov
simply desire on my part to prevent
the people of New York from being
robbed by the gas trust and betrayed
by their own representatives 1 do not
know anything about Mr.. Murphy and
l do not consider his plans and pref
erences any more than if he were not
alive. The only question is one of
trust eXtOrtion and public corruption.
l purpose doing all l can to prevent
both, no matter whom it affects, nor
whether the individuals concerned are
democrats or republicans.
Being a democrat myself, deem it
unfortunate that l had to fight one
democratic administration for betray-
ing the people to the ice trust, and
now a second democratic administra-
ton for betraying the people to the
gas trust. But l shall not allow that
regret to influence my course in the
slightest
Turn the rascals out is a good
motto for democrats and let us first
turn them out of the democratic party.
For more than twenty years l have
given my most hearty moral and ma
terial support to every honest demo-
cratic candidate and | shall continue
to do that, but 1 prefer to do it in the
ranks"

WILL FIGHT FOR LIGHTWEIGHT
CHAMPIONSHIP IN SAN FRAN
CISCO TONIGHT.
The "Dope" Makes Nelson the Better
Man, but Despite This He Is
Shortender.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Dec. 90
For the first time in years bonafide
lightweight championship battle will
be fought tonight when Jimmy Britt,
the acknowledged champion of the
class, crosses arms with Battling Nell
son, the Great Dane" the little
whirlwind, who has, within six
month, laid low Martin Candle, Spider
Welch, Eddie Hanlon, Aurelie Herrera
That is to say, it is conceded that it
will be a legitimate lightweight fight,
strictly to Hoyle in the matter of the
weight. They will be so close to the
figures prescribed by the Queensberry
rules, however, that there will be small
room for clubbing. The articles say
they must weigh 1872 at six o'clock
The true weight for the class is 1873
ringside, therefore the fighters will
have about three pounds the best of
the rules.
The weight is decidedly to Britt's
advantage as Nelson can easily make
12S at and be as strong as an OK.
Putting aside the matter Of weight,
there is little to choose between the
boys. Britt is a fast, slashing fighter,
game as a pebble, capable of taking
unlimited punishment but not partic-
ularly hard hitter. Science and
speed, not the wallop have carried
him to the top of the ladder, and his
admirers hold that he has enough
goods in the shop to hold his place
against the attacks of Nelson, who
fairly eats up every punch in the book.
Britt, in his memorable, but malodor-
| Gus battle with Cans, had the strength
of lion at 1873 ringside, and the nat
| ural deduction is that he will be
| stronger when he faces Nelson. On
the other hand to offset the advantage
| that this weight will give him, he
will find that the man before him will
be far from a replica of the weak, slow
and spiritless Cans. Neither will the
| Nelson, slow, plodding and almost de-
