Tho Knockout Blow.

The blow which knocked out Corbett
was revelation to the prize fighters.
From the earliest days of the ring the
knockout blow was aimed for the jaw,
the temple or the jugular vein. Stomach
punches were thrown in to worry and
weary the fighter, but if scientific man
had told one of the old fighters that the
most vulnerable spot was the region of
the stomach, he'd have laughed at him
for an ignoramus. DR.. Pierce is bringing
hoYe to the public a parallel fact; that

Fifty years ago, on August II,
1858. the first cable message was sent
across the Atlantic. The message
was of 80 words. from Queen Victoria
to President Buchanan. It took 81
minutes to transmit. But it was
the little message sent fifty years ago
that afforded the first tangible proof
that one of the greatest attempts Of
man in the field of science had sue

world has built more than 200. 900

attended as it should have been in
view of the Importance of the question
now presented to the voters of this
state. Mr.. Skeel is not an orator but
he is calm, logical and convincing
speaker and is Thoroughly posted on
the temperance question as it relates
to the moral and material welfare of
the people. He spoke from the
standpoint of the local optionists and
gave numerous instances of the bene-
fetal results of local option leqisla-
tion in various states. He stated that
Washington is one of only eleven
states in the Union in which there is
not local option law in force and
he added that the local option bill
introduced in the legislature at the
last session was defeated in the lower
house by only one vote and that vote
was cast by the representative from
this county. He read letters from
the three candidates for the Republi-
can legislative nomination in this
county in which they all unequivocal
ly pledged themselves to support local
option in the legislature in the event
of their election.

AS Mr.. Cleveland Saw 1t

President Cleveland had planned
to write three articles on the present
Presidential campaign. One of them.
which he finished. and which was
published in the New York Times.
of August 20, contains this interesting
political forecast:
"When it became apparent that
Mr.. Taft would be the nominee of bis
party. that Mr.. Hearst and his party
would make a clean-cut effort for
emplacement as a national factor. and
not endeavor to gain any immediate
advantage for themselves by any such
process as fusion-in fact. would
seek to destroy Organism. or rather
Mr.. Bryan's hold on the Democratic
party. not by forcing the hold to
relax. but by lessening that which he
had to hold conjecture as to the
result in the November conclusions
could be of but one sort among sensi-
BILE men. With the several other
parties disorganizing, redeveloping.
and pro-creating. the Republican
party is certain. though with con-
siderably lessened strength. to move
on to a safe victory sustained by the
popular support of reforms which
should not rebound to its glory
solely. those reforms having been the
work of decent men of all parties.
Mr.. Cleveland did not hesitate to
disclose that he viewed this prospect
with resignation. He went on to say:
''There is fear on my part of being
misunderstood in what l am about to
say; but surely the fair-minded man
must realise. when he considers my
attitude toward my own party. all
now a matter of immutable record.
that it is prompted by a sense of
simple fairness. Personally and off
cially l have had the opportunity Of
knowing many things concerning
Mr.. Taft that we're not a matter of
general knowledge. and with keen
Interest l have watched his large
share in the conduct of our national
affairs in very recent years. His
excellence as a Federal judge in
Cincinnati is something not to be
underestimate or overemphasized,
for should he come to the Presidential
chair the qualities which made him q
judge of high ability, which l know
him to have been. will be the most
needful to him as President of the
United States. His high ideals of
honesty and of relative justice. his
great capacity for severe labor. and
his humorous wisdom in the face of
the, serious problems are attributes
equally valuable and commendatory
to a people seeking him in whom
they may repose the trust of their
collective interests while they turn
their increased attention to their
pressing individual demands.
