The Paramount Issue.
One day during the campaign of 1900
Major Henry Newman was at Poplar
Blur, Mo, preaching Democracy pure
and indebted in his best form, but re
framing from any discussion Of the
paramount ISSUE Among the majors
auditors was citizen in a policeman's
helmet who marked the omission and
interrupted
How about the PhilllpayinsT he
asked with brogue which left no
doubt as TO his nativity
Major Newman continued without
appearing to notice the questioner.
How about the Philippians" came
again at TIE end Of one Of the majors
best periods.
Half dozen OF these Interruptions
followed with no apparent let-up to the
Irishman's persistence.
my friend, said Major Newman a
length, ''rll tell you about the Phillip
ayins."
The imitation OF the brogue was per-
feet. and everybody chuckled.
I'm tell yoa eonfdentially, said the
major seriously, what I'm in favor OF
doing with the Philippians. I'd trade
the Philippians to Great Britain for
Ireland, and then we could raise our
own policemen"

Diversified FARMING.

The reasons for diversifying in farm.
ing are many. First, it enables the
farmer to grow the greater portion Of
his own living with but little cash
outlay; second, 1t puts him In posi-
ton in which he is much less at the
mercy of adverse seasons. as, though
certain crops which he grows may
fail, other crops may yield well; third
II enables him the better to maintain
the fertility OF his soil; fourth, 1t brings
to him other benefits growing out OF
rotation, such as distributing labor
over the whole year and more effec-
tually keeping at bay certain trouble

Of a score or more oarsmen who have
gathered here for the thirty fifth an

which were on the program for this

finals and the long-looked- for cham
ptonships. Those who did not go out
for an early morning spin gathered
along BathhOuse row and discussed
the chances of the Germans and other
aSDirants for championship honors as
wen as probabilities of some of the
present holders retaining their titles.
international in scope, the senior
four-oar,d shell race is planned as the
special feature of the regatta, a place
usually allotted to the senior eight
cared shell contest In addition to the
senior tours the Germans are entered
in the senior singles and senior dou-
bles. They will go against the pick of
the amateur oarsmen of the Eastern
clubs, as well as several crack oars
men from the far West and from Can
ada. That the German crews will prove
formidable opponents is admitted, and
it is thought that for the first time in
the history of rowing in the United
States one or more national associa-
ton trophies may go abroad.
The annual meeting of the National
Association of Amateur Oarsm takes
place at the Athletic club tonight, when
the question of returning the visit of

decided, The ACCESSIBILITY of entering

DAYS CHALLENGE
is ACCEPTED
Can Easily Find a Match
and Name the Dis
lance

SEATTLE, Aug. 7.-B. r. Day,
champion Splinter of Great Britain,
who arrived here recently from Aus
ralIo, whare he had lost to Postle, the
champion of the big island. several
days ago posted $1,000 with the Seattle
Times for a match at any of the
sprints with any American runner.
There was some doubt expressed as TO
the possibility of an American profess
sional turning up who would care to
pick up the gauntlet. However. he has
turned up-or, rather, they have turn
ed him up-and Seattle will in all
probability see the British sprlnter and
an American on the cinder path within
the next few weeks.
Sea tile has had as a resident for the
past five weeks no less an athletic cell
ehrity than NJ. H. Butler (Mike), who
for 10 years was athletic director and
matchmaker for the Chicago Athletic
association. Either Mike or his protege,
Joe Sullivan, whom he has developed,
are ready to meet Day on the cinders
at any distance he prefers and for any
amount he cares to chance on the re-
suit
Butler would run the British
champion, preferably, at any distance
from 600 to $50 yards. while he will
back Sullivan to meet the Englishman
at from IS to 100 yards.
Either Butler or Sullivan.
In order to get prompt action, But
Ter would like to meet Day and his
manager, RUFF Naylor at the, Times
office as soon as it is convenient for
them. The sprinter and his trainer
could not be found last evening when
Butler made his call.
Mike Butler is, possibly, one of the
best known athletes and trainers Of
athletes in the country. He severed a
10years' connection with the Chicago
Athletic association about two months
ago and moved to Seattle, where he in
tends to permanently reside. His name
was an open sesame to all the clubs
IF the city, and he has been received
enthusiastically in all these quarters.
There are many who will recall him
here through his appearance at Seattle
and along the coast more than 10
years ago, when he cleaned up the path
with every aspiring sprinter.
