terest to the colored people at this
time:
First: VIII you give your endorse
ment to the effort which this league
Is making to secure the colored vote
for the democratic party in the COM
ing election?
Second: Will you use your influ-
ence to have inserted in the platform
at the democratic convention a plank
giving hope to the colored race that
the democratic party is favorably in
clined to them in their efforts to be
useful citizens?
1t is not presumptuous for me to say
that they are entitled to be mentioned
somewhere in a platform which guar
antees the rights Of other citizens.
The republican party has long enjoyed
the monopoly of this political asset
which they have abused, and it is
time the democratic party got some
of II. This new departure will give
this league a prestige and something
tangible with which to go before the
people. 1t will also be an exhibition
of the highest craftsmanship which
will attract to the democratic stand
ard not only colored but white men
who have never before voted the ma.
tional ticket.
The experiment is worth the trial
The results will be, am sure, graft
flying.
Thanking you in advance for your
courtesy, and asking an early reply,
Very faithfully yours,
ALEXANDER WALTERS.

PHILA DELPHIA. Jan. @4.-Packey
Mcfarland the Chicago boy who aspires
TO be the lightweight champion, beat
Jack Ward Of England by big margin
in a special six-round bout at the Ma
tioual Athletic club tonight.
From the start McFarland's mastery
was evident. although In the early
rounds he never cared 10 press his ad =
vantage Ward fought almost entirely
on the defensive, and Packey kept him
on the hop nearly all the time. He did
not relish the Americans rushes,
Seeing the advantage Pacl<ey enjoyed.
the crowd yelled for him to finish the
Brltshcr but instead OF increasing In
fury the battle was toned down, solely
because Of the conservatiycncss shown by
Mcfarland.
This displeascd the crowd and Packey
was the object OF Kisses in the fifth
round. Infuriatcd by the rebuke. McFar-
land charged after Ward like A mad
dcned bull In the sixth period. He jabbed
with his left and swung his right hard
10 the jaw. Ward retreated and raced
about the ring. with his relentless oppo-
nent in close pursuit,
Packey didn't give Ward an instant's
rest. but sent him bobbnC against the
ropes frequently. Once. while the men
were close. Mcfarland came up with a
right hand uppercut TO the chin and Ward
fell fiat ON his face.
The crowd believed that IL was all on
with the English lad, but with weary
shake OF his head he came up again and
ran into a cliDch.
Ward was weak, confused and badly
beaten man when the final round ended
