From present appearances, we will
soou see the end of the obnoxious i
w'alking delegate. New York has
Laken drastic neiisures to climinate
him in that statd, and the oflicials of
other comtmuniti.s are keeping their
weather eyes on the eastern authori
Lies with a like end in view. In New
York some of the dishonest "walkers"
aro .being convicted of their hold-up
methods aid aro being sent to the
penitentiary to ke)ep company with
the rest of the rogues. This is about
the only way in which the delegate
can be eliminated, and the authorities
ol' other states should not be slow in
adopting the course bewg pursued
by New York. The walking dele
gate has been the causo of much in
necessary troublo and sorrow in thts
coutitry, and he should be made to
wialk the plank. There is no longer
a place for him in the ranks of hon.

Sir Thomas Lipton is in despair
and intimates that there may never

his defeat, but would retnind him
that the American people have a very
high regard for a gentleman who has
shown so much pluck and determi
niatio), and whether he ever races for
the cup again or not, he can point to
us and say that we are his friends in
all truth and sincerety. Ho has
mado a gallati fight and defeat but
raises him inl our estimation.
