It is almost universally conceded that our present constitution is unsatistactory and that the same should berevised. A constitution should be a simple declaration of fandamental principles of law, whereas our constitution is 0 incumbered with details as to be in effect statutory provision rendering it almost im- possible to enact laws thereunder which shall not in some particular conflict therewith. In some countries there is no written constitu- tion, and in view of the ease with which the Supreme Court of our State decrees the uncon- stitutionality of desirable statutes enacted by our Legisiature I have sometimes thought that it would be greatly to our advantage if we also were without an_unchangeable document Accused of Fraternizing With the Adherents of the De- The plain duty, then, of all persons who {endant. favor constitutional amendments in our State, whether in the matter of tax reform or upon other subjects, is to bend every energy 1o se- curo the majority of the votesat the next elec- tion in favor of caliing the constitutional con- vention, and as the people ol this State are progressive, intelligentand thoughtful I have Do doubt that two years from now they will vote in favor of such convention and fn pur- suance thereof will elect men of sound judg- ment and progressive ideas who will assume the duties of delegates o that convention in & spirit of earnest desire to 80 amend our or- ganic law as 1o abolish the numerous evils which exist thereunder.

INFANTS’ Irish heavy-weight champion, Peter | Maber, in a contest of twenty rounds be- | fore one of the boxing clubs of New York, ! and rumor says that Sharkey will insist | that Mr. Earp must act as referee, but it | is presumed that Mr. Earp will not accept | the “honorable” position for reasons that | are best known to himself. | Anyhow Sharkey is traveling eastward, | ostensibly for the purpose of proving to | Peter Maher that ae can hit harder and stand more solid punishment than eithar | Corbett or Fitzsimmons. Thedispatchesdonotsay whether Maher | is really afraid to meet the sailor, or | whether he beiteves in silence as being a | cardinal virtue at this juncture, when loud talking may be a means of drawing the wrath of the powers that be on the heads of the boxing club managers who have made arrangements for the contest. Sharkey may whip the Irishman, but the general opinion of all ring-follgwers is that Tom will run against a game this time that will surprise him. It can be said, and without the least fear of contra- diction. that if Maher lands one of his pet rizht-hand punches on the jaw of the | man who stood before *‘Fitz" and Corbett | the receiver will be afforded an oppor- | tunity of feeling the sensation that arises | from a knock-out blow. As the matc: between Maher' and | Sharkey has not been consummated as yet, and as there may be many obstacles thrown in the way of a meeting between the two heavy-weighte, Sharkey can rest | as3ured of one thing, and that isa passage- | at-arms between himself and Jim Jeffries, | the champion heavy-weight of Southern | | California, who made short work of Van | Buskirk last Friday evenine. | ~ Jeffries’ manager, Tom McDonald, has | authorized the publication of a challenge to Snarkey. Mr. McDonald states that if Snarkey will consent to meet Jeffries in | this City in a contest of from ten to | twenty rounds there will not be any d 1 | culty in signing articles of agreement, | | provided that the entire purse will go to | the winner and each principal deposit $5000 as a side stake two weeks bsfore the day of the fight. Jeffries’ backer states further that be will not permit his charge | to fight a colored man; he draws the line | there; but any white man, excepting Cor- bett and Fitzsimmons, can have a brush with the new aspirant to bigh honors, pro- vided that a side wager of $5000 will form | apart of the agreement over the signa- tures of the contestants. from the existing personnel.
