The Buckeye Wrestler Bests the
Buffalo Giant.

ERIE, Pa, March 8.-Harry Parker,
of Akron, O.. won the handicap wrest-
ling match between himself and Hugh
Leonard, of Buffalo, taking the second
fall in 15$( minutes. Leonard was to
throw Parker five falls in an hour, for
feiting the match if Parker won fall.
Leonard took the first fall on hammer
lock in 20 minutes. The second bout
was made interesting by Parker break
ing a full Nelson after superb work and
tripping Leonard by accident as Leon
ard was trying to throw him bodily over
his head. Leonard was OFF his balance,
and slight kick from Parker's foot as
he left his feet sent Leonard on his
back. The men signed articles tor an
other match OH the same terms, to take
place within two weeks, for $50 side
and Is and 25 per cent of the receipts.

WASHINGTON, March 8. 8.-Representa-

Gen. Greely, chief of the signal service
bureau, this morning, over the proposed
removal of the station from St.Vincent,
Mimi. Gen. Greedy believes it should
be put in some larger place, and had
about decided to remove it to Min
neapolis. Mr.. Comstock objected to
this, claiming that station at St. Vim
cent, or some point in the far northern
part OF the state, was OF great impor-
lance TO the balance of the state. Mr.
Comstock made the case so strong that
action will be delayed, at least, and pos
sibly NJ change may be made.

Unlimited Quantities of Coal on

CHAMBERLAIN, S. d., March g.
There is now no doubt that coal exists
on the Sioux reservation in unlimited
quantities. Sheriff Vanhorn and two or
three other prominent men have Just
returned from prospecting tour along
White river in the Sioux reservation.
The brought with them about three
hundred pounds of good quality soft
coal. which they found near the mouth
of White river. The samples found
were sticking out of the bluffs, and,
owing to the exposed position, are
rather dry and light in weight. The
prospectors will at once secure machin-
cry with which to fully develop the
vein and they are confident that the
further they sink into the bluff the
harder the coal will be. This discovery
is hailed with great delight by all the
people in this section. as it means cheap

The Meet,ng of caneress.

The second session of the Fifty-frst Con-
gress begins next Monday. 1t ends on the
fourth day Of March, 1891. So there are a
little more than twelve weeks in which to
pass the necessary appropriation bills, and
the other measures that call for immediate
attention. From this period must be de-
Quoted, however, the holiday recess, which
generally consumers about ten days. Ten
weeks, therefore are about all that can be
counted on for business. There are pending
now before one or the other houses the cleo
tion bill. the shipping bill and the national
bankrupt bill. These measures are all of
great Importance, and the passage of the
frst two will certainly meet with vigorous
8 resistance. The election bill is now in the
Srnate, but 1t has been so altered from the
House bill that should it pass it would have
t. 90 back to the House for concurrence.
The shipping bill has passed the Senate and
is now In the House. Whether the election
bill will be pressed to vote in the Senate
cannot be determined now. There was
sort Oh understanding among the Republi-
can Senators at the close Of the last session
that the Dill would be taken up Immediately
on the re-convening Of the Senate and
pressed to passage, but it is doubtful If this
understanding was of nature to bind the
Senators, and events have happened since
which may change the minds Of several who
were In It, On one plea and another we
think it is more than probable that the cleo
ton bill will be shelved. II this bill is put
aside other pending measures will probably
give comparatively little trouble. The ship
pingbill meet vigorous resistance, but the op-
position will not probably 60 to the extent
OF resort to fibusterlng or other revou-

But there Is new measure to be intro.

Democratic leaders have already proclaimed
to the country that rather than permit the

1t is frequently urged in opposition to the
theory of protection, that the greatest scnol.
ars declare the principle unsound. Such an
allegation cannot be proved, it Is true, but
1t carries with 1t some weight on account of
the great activity of certain free trade pro-
fessors like Prof. Sumner, of Yale College.
Mr.. Gladstone has declared protection sim
moral;" and score Of imitators decry it as
robbery" "spOliation," etc. But on the
other hand very many able scholars hold to
very different views. Prof. Ely, of Johns
Hopkins University, occupies an enviable
position among the practical scholars of
America. His work upon taxation is at this
time doing great though unobtrusive work
in this country: and the opinions ad-
vanced by him may be detected In the pro-
gramDe of nearly all the projects for tax
revision now afoot In this country. Prof
Ely has lately turned his attention to politi-
cal economy, and has written IAN Intro
duction TO Political Economy" Upon the
tariff question he takes an independent posi-
tion, and, like nearly all political economists,
he sometimes advances theories which do
not correspond with facts. He declares for
instance, that the argument that protection
benefits the laborer does not seem conclusive,
since it is not commodities but labor that
comes in competition with labor. The ex-
periences Of the laborers in American
worsted mills. who have been thrown out of
employment because of Treasury ruling al
lowed English woIsteds to come in at free
trade rate, shows that commodities do COM
pete with labor. But upon protection as
policy of right and wrong Prof. Ely adj
vances an argument which deserves consider
alton when the initators of Mr.. Gladstone
are putting forth their varied assortment of
epithets:
1t is frequently alleged that Protective Tariffs
are violation Of an assumed natural right of
every man to buy his goods where he will and to
sell his product whei ever he sees fit, untrammeed
human laws. This argument, based on natural
rights, may be dismissed as a "dOgmatism III dis
guisr," as an English jurist calls this sort of
reasoning. High sounding phra-e s are substi-
tuied tor arguments, and under their cover
oplnions are thrust upon others without real
effort to substantiate them. How prove the
natural right? IL does not appeal 10 the majority
OF mankind as thing riphtin itself TO buy and
sell wh-re enc pleases, regardless Of the common
veal, and all history is against such exorbitant
claims OF indiyiduasm. IL appears to most men
that The public welfare must decide questions of
this nature. Protection is thus called robbery
because IL violates an assumed natural right, 1t
Is much 10 be desired That arguments of this sort
should cease to be heard so frequently.

Yesterday morning the Argus again proved
itself tn be free trade paper when it said:
The Democratic policy, as advocated by the
Argus, is TO tax the importation of foreign goods
for revenues sake.
Perhaps the Argus does not know it, but
this is free trade, when tariff is imposed for
revenue simply with no idea of protection.
The Argus will admit that England is free
trade nation, and EOgland has just.the tariff
that the Argus advocates,-one levied for
revenues sake" We cordially thank our
neighbor for the aid it is giving us in the
difficult work of explaining to the public its
political principles.
