There are fight lans here from every part of the United States, and Columbus man agers of the championship bout are preparing a statement to be issued prior to the bout, and probably to be read from the ringside before the Stribling-Lohman bout begins. “Pa” Stribling, father and man, ager of the challenger, this morn ing stated that his investigations had convinced him that McTigue’s accident was such as to prevent his appearing in the ring today, and that there is postively no ‘fake’ or reason to charge a frame-up on the ; part of anybody connected with the . fight.

Hill, De mocratic candidate for Congress in the Fifth District cf Washington by a majority approximating 1,000 overturning a Republican majority in 1922 of 2,172, was a distinct shock to the Republican National jrganiation in Washington, D. C., but caused no surprise at Demo cratic Headquarters, where a sub. stantial victory was expected. This is the first Democratic vic tory under the Coolidge administra tion and it is significant because the contest was fought on Nation al issues with the tariff predomina ting and the Republican candidate, State Senator Myers, used as his slogan throughout the campaign, ‘Stand by Coolidge,” The Republican National and State organizations made a despe rate effort to prevent a repudia tion of the National administra tion, but the voters evidently were ware that the recent change in lie presidency had brought about to change in the reactionary lead ership of the Republican party: that the present administration as in Republican administration in cluding the Taft administration and actionary special interest group of hard-boiled Republican politicians. The sweeping Democratic victory in the Fifth Washington District is significant also because it is a continuation of the Democratic vic tories in local and Congressional elections since 1920. In practically every election that has been held since tile last National election, the Democratic candidates have either been elected or Republican majori ties have been greatly reduced. MRS.
