and will thus enter hard grinding work
at once.
Next to the local fight the attention
of the sportsmen naturally is turned
toward the afternoon struggle to take
place week from tomorrow at san
Francisco. Billy Papke, the gentle
manly Kewanee boy with the mule
kick concealed under his trim hgure,
will dash into the grim destroyer OF
mfddleweights. Stanley Ketchel For
the fourth time the rugged 159-pound~
ers will settle the individual suprem-
acy argument which has Waged back
and forth between them. The smiling
Illinois fighter writes to his southern
friends in an enthusiastic vein, saying
he is sure to win this fight and Will
regain the championship speedily.
KetcheFs startling defeat of Jack
O'Brien boosted his stock more than
perhaps the middleweight champion
realized at the time. He is favorite
over Billy, of course, and probably at
least 10 to will be quoted freely at
ringside, with chances that the price
will be even better. Stanley pursues
his leonine way, tearing through his
training and disregarding all advice or
criticism, but supremely confident of
ultimate victory
Ed Papke, brother and manager of
the Thunderbolt, speaks both Tor hlm-
self and the former champion when he
gives out the following.
"Billy is going to win this fight sure
as you're a foot high. You remember
they kind of smiled when l spoke so
confidently regarding the outcome Of
the fight with Kelly. Well, events
proved l was not far wrong in my pre-
dictions and you will see it will be the
same way this time. Bill never was
in such grand shape in his life. He
has lived the simple existence so long
and carefully that he is right on his
mettle, full of dash and vim, and will
put up a whirlwind fight that will
sweep Ketchel off his feet"

THE SALARIED MANS TARIFF

The Washington Post thinks that as
long as it is necessary to lay Il reason
able tax for industries the people will
submit, but that when protection affords
extravaganza profits and compels self
denial and want among millions of
citizens it becomes brutal abuse. It
then says:
1.-THE situation in this country today
is causing anxiety to hundreds of thou
sands of hard working and deserving
people and their dependents, who find
their wages the same as many years
ago and the cost of the necessities of
life double and treble what they were
They see bursting prosperity on every
hand among those who have had the
protective tariff as an ally, and are
told at every election time of the mani
fold blessings which the protection
system brings to the country. But their
own incomes are gradually growing
less in purchasing power. although the
income in money remains the same.
They are getting less to eat, less to wear
and less in comfort for their labors than
ever before. The salaricd people of
Washington for cxamplc-nany thou

Army OF Men for Census

Plans for the taking of the thirteenth
census have been completed and the
Bureau of the Census soon will begin
the organization of an army of 60, 900
enumerators and $50 supervisors.
There will be between $500 and 1000
extra clerks engaged for the work of
compilation. The supervisors, who will
be appointed by the president on the
recommendation of the congressional
delegates, will be paid $500 a year and
81 for every thousand citizens enrolled.
The enumerators are to get cents IL
name for everyone they turn in. This
method of payment, it is believed, will
result i'll greater activity OH the part of
the enumerators. The actual work in
the field will be started April Is, 1910.
1t is estimated that the census will cost
the tax payers not less than $14, 900, 600.

DEMOCRACY AND THE TARIFF

From Democratic point of view the
only way to meet the issue is revenue
tariff pure and simple.
The Dingley bill is prohibition
tariff, and Taft was elected OH II promise
that an equal revision downward would
he and should be made. and he is fair
enough to admit this.
All Democrats should stand together
and compile all the items in detail that
have been advanced over the Dingley
rates to show the insinc"itiy and hypoc-
risy of the Republican party.
All those advanced rates i'm the
Payne and senate bill are favors dealt
out to special interests with pull and
are the results of conspiracy and
deception
Do not waste any time on any re-
duced schedules or Dingl ey rates that
have not been touched.
All the Democratic senator's should
take up every item of the senate bill
that has been advanced over Dingley
rates and let the country know all
every item that has been advanced
stating the Dingley rate in one column
and the senate rate in an oppositc
column and thn percentage of advance
in the last column. IF You go into the
