''Fight?" said old Fitz, az the re-
porter fired the question at him from
the buggy. Sure. I'll glove any of

he is too old for the game now. IT'S
true that the long rest has restored

to meet me for the middleweight cham

There seems to be penchant for new

A great deal Of money is being trans

editor of the Toronto Evening News.
were the principal speakers tonight
at Il dinner given by the Wholesalers
and Manufacturers association OF De
troit for the purpose at discussing bet
ter trade relations with Canada. Mr.
Garfield declared that the relations be
tween Canada and TIN United States
are of a peculiarly close and intimate
character, racially. geographically and
politically.
The enormous development in the
United States of water for power and
irrigation" he said. has brought up
a serious question. The distribution
of the water power in streams flow
ing back and forth across the bound
AIRY cannot safely be left to the tenn
porary selfish interest of either
country"
Mr.. Wilson said: Canadian re-
strictions upon the export of pulp wood
and sawlogs cannot be properly de
scribed as discriminatory, although
they do chiefly affect the United
States, because they apply alike to all
countries. And | am bound to say
that the provinces are unlikely To CON
slider any reversal of policy. and there
is no doubt that the movement for a
federal export duty will become more
formidable
1t is, perhaps. a natural expectation
that the intertrade relations between
Great Britain and her colonies viii not
expose us to retaliatory action. II the
presidents decision should be other
wise. the Canadian surtaX of SO l3 per
cent will take effect against this
country; trade will almost cease to
flow from north to south and all our
relations will be profoundly and de-
plorably estranged."
