What the Editors Say

We note with sincere satisfaction the
feeling of good fellowship that exist
ed between the two principal guberna-
'torial candidates at the editorial meet

each other on the back and spurred

The United States supreme court
has handed down a decision to the eff
feet that a passenger riding on, rail-
way trains on a free pass cannot col
lect damages for any injury sustained.
When we read of that decision and
read of the ever recurring railway &C
cident, we are glad that We are not
in the legislature. In fact, there are
many other reasons. but one is enough
at time.-St. Peter Herald.

Ray Jones appears to continue to
have smooth sailing for the presidency
of the next state senate. The trouble

The integrity Of China.

A plain statement Of fact-the in
tegrity of China has not yet been
saved. So far as Manehuria is con-
cerned, China has already been par
titioned to degree, unless Russia can
be driven out of Japan. If China is
kept intact the credit will be due to
the power that does the fighting, and
not the power that writes the notes.

The attitude Of Germany continues

Graft in Chicago is only sporadic.

PILGRIM JOE.

L left the town of Last Chance the
other mornin' jest as the autumn sun
was glidin' the dewy grass and the
buzzards, were twitterin' their early
lays, and as I driv along and reflected
that my old boss could strike 2:4O
gait any day in the Week-my fightin'
dog under the wagon was good fur
twice his weight in any kind of live
meat; my bottled grasshopper was
turnin' handsprings in the eXuberance
OF his speerits, and my wad of the
long green counted up over $200-I say
that when 1 reflected on these things,
and that 1 was alive to enjoy them, 1
gin the old equine a cut with the CAD

He that is too good has nuthin'; he
that is jest good huff is like the farm

SUTHERLAND is SORRY.
AIutineer VIII Have to Spend Three
Years More in Prison.

Leavenworth, Nov. s. = The Times
says: There is one prisoner, at least
in the federal -penitentiary who re
grets that he ever attempted to es-
cape. The prisoners name is Lol
Sutherland Had he not escaped with
the other prisoners during the mu-
tiny of Nov z, 1901, at the new site.
he would have been released on the
21St of this month, but now he will
have to serve an additional three years
for taking part in the mutiny, this
sentence beginning the .21st and with
good time he will be released in about
two years, making a total of over sew
en- years he had to serve for five
years sentence he received at Ard
more, L. T., for larceny.
Sutherland was received at the fed
eraI penitentiary Nov. 81, 1899, and
would have been released ten months
ago had he not been in the mutiny.
He was tried at Topeka, Kan, and
sentenced to a term of three years
with several other mutineers.
Sutherland had a miraculous escape
from DEATH AS the bunch of prison
ers went out of the west gate at the
the guards, Sullivan, who was sta
toned in the box at the northwest
end of the wall, shot at the gang of
prisoners and succeeded in hitting
Sutherland. The ball, which was from
a krag-J OrgenSen rifle, entered Suth-
erland's stomach on the right side,
and instead of passing through,
glanced off and passed on around the
front of the stomach, just under the
skin, and came out on the left side
of his body. The rest of the pris-
oners, after seeing that he was shot,
did not want to take him along for
fear that the guards would trace him
by his blood, and left him behind.
Sutherland was captured three days
later near Lawrence, Kan, where he
had succeeded in getting without the
help of his comrades.

sHARKEY is OUT OF 1T.
The Sailor Says He Will Never Fight
Again.

New York, Nov. S.-Tom Sharkey
the fighting marine. who has never
quailed before the best fighters OF
the day, who has met them all, and
the only man who ever stood Jenries
OFF for 25 rounds, gave him the tough
est fight of his life and came out with
his senses about him, has retired from
the ring.
The lighting marine has just recov-
cred from an attack of typhoid fever
He said today:
II know my fighting days are
over. and although l feel good and it
seems as though L could fight as good
as ever, know that am not there.
After my fight with Munroe I knew
that I had gone back. You know a
man has his day, and if he doeSn't
get right to the top then there is no
use keeping at it until you are old
enough to play Santa Claus.
Il m satisfied with my record. None
of those fellows ever gave Jeffries the
fight l gave him. They may all be
great men, but l have yet to see the
man who has gone the limit with him
and have a close decision given. I've
lost fights, too, yes, but / have no kick
coming.
They never give newcomer credit
for his fighting. i had to go with JET
fries for Is rounds before they would
believe that 1 could fight. It's the
same way with Britt On the level,
they can't believe that he licked Cans.
You see, they get the idea in their
heads that the champion of a class
must be good forever. and no matter
what sort of a. fighter beats him the
sports think it must be a fluke or
something on that order
II have kid brother here now
who will surprise some of them soon, "
continued Tom, looking around. 81
won't let him go in any of these six
round goes, though. No, he must
fight > or 20-round fights. L don't
believe in the short bouts. A man
cannot get along in that time. l hope
the game starts UP here in New York
soon, and then I'll get that kid going.
Do 1 think there's a chance of JEFF
fries ever losing his title? No, sir;
not yet Not a chance in the world.
The only one they have in view is
Johnson. and he has no more license
boxing Jeffries than one of my bar
tenders has. I used to spar with that
he doesn't like the game. Every time
1 hit him in the ribs he yelped. That
sort of man can't beat the big fellow.
1t looks to me as though Jeff would
carry the title to his grave. He's too
good a man for the fellows nowadays,
know the game is quiet now. and when
they have boxing so limited there's no
chance of young fellows coming up.
They don't get the chance. don't you
see.
well. III never bother him for an
other go. This sickness put me out
of the game. I weighed 2O6 before I

than / was in my first fight years ago.

MCLEAN AFTER TEAM WORK.
Missouri Coach Getting Into Shape
for WaShburn.


Columbia. Mo. Nov. S-The practice
of the Missouri Tigers during last week
has been directed wholly toward the
development of team work The pre-
liminary training, such as Coach Nc
Lean had to give to a team made up
for the most part of first year men, is
over, and tackling of the dummy and
individual coaching has given way to
the training of eleven men to play to-
gether as one.
Last season Mclean had to go
through such course of preliminary
instruction, and it was not until the
last two weeks of the season that he
could give all his time to the develop
ment of the team as a unit. 1t was this
training of the last two weeks that put
the aggregation in a position 10 play
Kansas to standstill on last Thanks
giving day, when, by a comparison of
the records of the two teams. Kansas
appeared to have a walkover. This
season Mclean has four weeks for the
final training in teamwork instead of
only two weeks, as during the last sea-
son.
Superior teamwork is the hope of the
Tigers in the WaShburn and Kansas
games. Lighter even than last years
team, the average against Purdue be-
ing only 159 pounds, Missouri Will be
at a great disadvantage against her
heavier opponents. By superior team
work Missouri must overcome superior
individual strength and knowledge OF
the game possessed by the opponents.
The next two games Of the schedule
are to be played on the home grounds
Next Saturday st. Louis university
will play in Columbia, and on the fol-
lowing Thursday Washburn college will
be here In these games the students
will be with the team, and if they do
not play football it will not be on ac-
count of lack of support. There is no
spirit of quitting in the student body
While they are disappointed, they are,
not discouraged, and there will be no
give-up till the season is over and the
last game is won or lost. In the re-
manning games the students will be
there, and it is hoped that the team
will show the best that is in them.
There will be no thought of staying
away from the Kansas game on ac-
count of the showing that has been or
may be made.
