CANADA TALKS PROTECTIVE TARIFF
So Says F. X. Clark Of Winnipeg, q
Visitor In Grand Forks,

F. K. Clark of Winnipeg was in the
city today enroute to Minneapolis. Mr..
Clark was greatly taken in by the city
of Grand Forks. 1.-THE only thing lack
ing In the city is good paving" he ex-
claimed to an Evening Times man.
When the tariff question was broached
the reporter quickly disccSered that
he had attacked the vital" spot.
The Manufacturers association of
Canada has long been aggitating
protective tariff similar to the one in
force in the United States," said Mr..
Clark. IF the association keeps on
hammering away in the future as it
has in the past, believe the desired
end will be accomplished. At its re-
cent convention in Winnipeg the mat
ter was taken up and discussed quite
thoroughly.
"a great deal has been said about
the United States being the natural
market for Canadian farm products,
yet per head of population the Ameri-
cans bought only little more than 8
cents worth of Canadian farm pro-
ducts during the year 1904. while Can
adam per head population bought of
the United States just thirty-four
times as much Of the same kind of
farm products. There is no reason TO,
this extraordinary difference other
than that the United States has high
protective tariff, while Canada has a
low one. The figures are not very en-
couraging to people who believe the
United States is the natural market
for Canadian farm products"

The First Duel.

The origin of the duel dates back
to the year 1868, B. C.
The first duel on record was fought
between David and Goliath. David,
being the challenged party, chose as
his weapon slung shot. Goliath was
armed with sword, which was about
fifteen feet long and very broad. There
were no seconds.
Goliath intimated to David before
the duel began that there wasn't go
in to be no core.
The duel was fought in the open at
a distance Of perhaps a quarter of a
mile between the contestants. Goliath
had the longer weapon, but David
had the longer reach.
hath he was full of hope. AS for
Goliath he was full of hot air.
When David got within long-dis-
lance reach of Goliath he slang stone
which struck Goliath just above the
bridge OF the nose.
Goliath cried foul" because the
only belt he had was a table cloth
tied about his head Then Goliath
sank down and took the count. The
next day he took his way to the ceme-
terry. There were no flowers.
David was not even pricked.
Following the meeting between
David and Goliath the duel became an
established institution. Although the
duel Is in decadence. France and Ger
many still have their affairs of honor.
