Fusion

Two things are essential 10 any re
spectacle fusion--two parties TO the
arrangement and some principle or rs
sue in common which forms the basis
OF the fusion. Nothing less than this
can warrant political party in de-
parting from the straight line OF party
conduct.
Both these things are wanting IN
The case OF Mr.. Clement and the Dem
ocra,a, between whom some people
are anxious 10 arrange fusion, but
between whom no fusion is possible.
There Is nothing 10 fuse and nothing
" form the basis Of fusion. Mr..
Clcmen, has no party. He has no or

only party 10 which he belongs or with
which be is identified il the Republican

MAIZE FTRELEss COOKERS.
Captain Murray, OF Fort Riley, Given
More Army Orders.

Junction City, Kan, March 5.-Cap-
tain Michael S. Murray. conmissary at
Fort Riley, has Just received orders
from the war department to make plans
and designs for two more freless cook
ers for army use, the cookers to be Of
a nature similar to the one that has
been used at Fort Riley since last jan
uary. Captain Murray's work with the
freless cooker at Fort Riley has proved
it to be q thing Of great advantage in
the uses that It can be put to in the
army. One Of the new cookers will be
sent to the Presidfo and the other viii
be sent to washington garrackss indi
eating that the war department favOrs
this method of cooking, and will grad
ually adopt-it for the use Of the various
branches of the service
This method Of cooking by retained
heat by the use of the patent box that
is called a freIess- cocker has been given
every kind Of a practical test at Fort
Riley. Troops have used it on practice
marches by carrying 1t IN a wagon, and
1t has proved to be up to every require
ment. It has been used in the open on
cold and wet days with very little diff
ferenees in results.

way it goes. When Delaney looks him
over and sees what ma gnif1cent shape
the big fellow is in he is perfectly will
ing to have him come back. Jeffries
himself hangs back a bit when it comes
to fights, I think. You know he didn'
draw with Jack Monroe what he
thought he ought to and his show life
disappointed him and he got sore on
the public game. think If a big
conner showed up and some talk was
started about his being a wonder JEFF
fries would come out He would have
to be shown that the fellow would
draw before he could get interested.
He looks good to me right now. I met
him out there and had a talk trying to
get him to shake hands with Hart.
"I think right now that JEFF could
beat a half dozen of the alleged big
7 fellows at once he looks so good
Some of the papers gave Hart q
roasting for that fight Of his, and I
don't think he deserves all he got. He
fights and IS willing to meet any of
the big fellows. No matter who may
question that Johnson decision, they
can never deny he did not go twenty
rounds with him and that fact alone
shows he can fight some. He beat
Root, and Chicago people know. what
Root is. He made a poor fight against
Burns, but you've seen many q big
fellow sewed up by another who
would not fight and who cliHched at
every move Hart made. Every round
was alike and he hasn't got Ryan,
tactics in a ring to switch with.
Ryan and Hart are good friends
and there is no truth in the story they
( had a split up. Hart is an old fighter
and it is hard TO teach an old dog
/ new tricks. don't think they worked
/ together three times. Ryan was only
down to Harris training quarters three
times at Los Angeles. He can't stand
1 for the water there, says it gave him
| rheuma usm- Ryan was in Harris cor
ner and they both objected to the big
( bandages. Burns being a smaller
man naturally won every argument.
/ ThenFhef got Hart mad by calling him
names. and there's the story of IT.
Hart used a crouch in that fight that
Ryan taught him and did not have his
usual style with his left high in the
air.
