Paris. Dec. 30.--The petition of Count

MED today. The court ruled that the
Children remain in the custody of their

The court ruled further that the chill

The court did not uphold the con-

FRANK COTCH
ON HIMSELF
THE BIG WRESTLER WRESTLES
WITH HIMSELF AS A SUBJECT
IN A LONDON NEWSPAPER
IS GETTING POPULAR.

Frank Gotch has been talking to
London reporter about his expert
ences as wrestler. He seems to be
getting fairly popular over there.
The impression that GOtch has crea-
ted in London may be understood
from the interview, which is report
ed verbatim.
Il am hoping quite a lot that
Hackenschmidt will meet me again."
he said. because 1t will put things
straight all around. At present
you've got his opinion and you've got
mine. and you're not satisfied. But
II we make another match Of It,
you'll have your own-and then will
be satisfied"
Gotch started out in life as a
farmland in the States. but caught
the gold fever. badly and went to
the Klondike
Seeking for gold. however. proved
in his case to be an unprOfitable
pursuit, and. more by accident than
design. he drifted into wrestling for
a living.
At Dawson City he met numerous
men of local reputation and tri-
umphed over all of them. The re-
suit was that wrestling as specta-
Gle became as much Of fever with
the miners as the search for gold.

quently paid for single seat in the
hall where the matches were held.
Coin being an unknown commodi-
ty in Dawson City. admission. like
everything else, was paid for in gold
dust. This form Of money naturally
had its Inconvenience, and Gotch
declares that the bartenders at the
| bi gsaloons often made as much as
80 shillings a day out of the floor
sweepings.
Gotch has suffered three beatings
altogether in wrestling contests. and
it was at this period that he expert
| enced the first Of them.
| He met Farmer" Burns. wrest-
Ter we'll known in the states. who
had at one time followed the occu-
patton implied by his nickname.
Burns quickly knocked all OF
Gotch's recently acquired conceit out
Of him, but after the match he came
up and said:
Lad, you're a wonder. but you
want science. Come with me and
III teach you something"
Gotch went. He was with Burns
for several years. and confesses te
having learned much Of his present
skill in the sport from the old
farmer.
At one time Gotch had a fancy
to combine the art OF boxing with
that of wrestling: but an encounter
with Slavin in Alaska. decided hin
that the combination was impossi
bic.
In this contest there were to have
been Is rounds. with four-ounc'
gloves, but the unequal struggle
ended with a seventh round. And M
wonder! For as Gotch humorousl!
puts it, "Slavin made 800 hits at me
and never missed once"
His second wrestling defeat oc
Cured at the hands Of man name
\ Dan Mcleod. The circumstance
|, were noteworthy.
There was a kind Of fete on Il
town, and the two wrestlers. cult
lunknon to each other. were bot
present. Under the assumed name o
REYNOLDS" Mcleod entered TO
nearly every kind of event on tn
program. and Gotch followed sui
the laurels generally falling to tn
latter.
Lewiston evening teller. [volume] (Lewiston, Idaho) 1903-1911, 1908-12-29

Someone suggested that the two
should have a wrestling bout and a
match was speedily put up. The
contestants decided to tussle in their
socks and running costurZr. and as
the ground consisted simply Of Gin
ders. these garments soon were re-
duced to shreds.
Mcleod was an hour and 20 min
utes obtaining his first fall. but It
was more than enough for, Gotch.
Gotch's third defeat in wrestling
was a triumph for Beel. another
wrestler better known In America
than out Of it.

NO. IT,.

AS a nation increasesl in popu-
lation, wealth and power, its in
fluence spreads apace and cannot
be limited by artificial means.
Every nation of any prominence
is world power and its power
must be il proportion to its
wealth and strength. We cannot
escape the exercise Of our power
or our responsibility, whether in
Cuba, IN Panama. in Venezuela,
or in the Philippines. 1t is neces-
sary to our own peace and pros
perity that we do our utmost to
make our neighbors peaceful and
prosperous. The conditions now
prevailing in Panama are such as
have, at various times, existed in
Mexico. in Cuba and in the South
and Central American Republics
whenever there was president to
be chosen. The President of
Panama seems to have been some-
what initiative in his methods,
and has used the Tammany plan
of fixing things and has employed
his Office to deprive the opposition
of their votes. This sort of prac-
tical politics is not rare in the
western hemisphere or even in
the United States and it has been
a fruitless source of revolution,
for what the other side is unable
to get by votes, it usually tries to
obtain by guns. If the United
States must interfere in Panama,
it will have to maintain control
just as England has had to main
tain control of India, in the
Transvaal, in Egypt, just as we
are now controlling in Cuba, and
in all probability will have to
continue that control. Our canal
interests in Panama are too great
to have them subjected to per-
petual political earthquakes.

The Philippine Congress, by
vote of 81 to Is has declared for
independence. They, of course,
do not know what independence
means. The Philippine popula-
lation is formed of a large mum.
Der of different races, each with
different language or dialect
and each animated, in a certain
degree, with a spirit of hostility
to the other. They want inde-
pendence. OF course they do!
What child does not want inde-
pendence? The children of India,
meaning the entire population,
want to be independent of Great
Britain. The tribes want the
privilege of scrapping with each
other as they did for centuries
prior to British dominion. The
Cubans want independence,
which means a banditti pande-
monium. All children want in.
dependence, or anarchy, ingorant
of the fact that in the strong hand
of government by law their only
safety lies. AS for the United
States, the true policy lies in tax
