CUSTOMS RECEIPTS
LESS THAN IN 1907
Corporation Tax Included in
treasury Statement Re
gaTding Tariff Law.

Review OF tue figures issued by the
Treasury Department on the revenue
returns for the first operative year
Of the Payne-Aldrich tariff Jaw shows
that the customs receip IS zIone for
the year were not as great as the re-
ceipts from customs for 1907. They
were, iu fact S3,l16.15f less than the
receipts for that year.
The Treasury statement was 10 this
effect
The ordinary receipts for the first
fun year OF The new tariff law were
greater bE almost $4,000 600 than
the ordinary. receiutS during the Fsra
year 1909. when the total was $685.
Vow the Treasury Is getting criti-
ciSeu sharply in some quarters for
putting Out statemen. that mfabf
be- taken ID indicate that the customs
receipts alone under the new law had
caused q heavy revenue
The stft-menI showed the returns
from custo rs were S3ZgzIi7.2Og. This
IS S-.00v00e less than the customs re
CeiptS f1r 1907 But in the Treasurs
tatemCIL il is made TO appear that

the Germans have been given the as
surance of the International Olympic
committee for the fixture. When Swe-
den was given the meet for 1912 1t
was understood that Germany with

it will not do Cleveland the least

all interest centers about the great
game of the year with Co. F. to
night. ~ "a
The Co. F champion A. A. U. team
claim that Monday is always an off

will play no more Monday games. They
will undoubtedly come back strong

doing every moment of the time.
It is said that the Co. F team plays
strong side line passing game and
that they were handicapped last even

This trouble will be eliminated tonight
and If they have the strong team play
for which they have been touted, it
should be seen to advantage in the

Badgers Want King.

From far-off Oregon comes wall
about Wisconsin's football team, so it
is evident that the miserable record
of tie badgers on tie gridiron is caus-
ing a pang even outside of the state.
The correspondent. j. f. WALL wants
to know what's the matter. Mr.. Wall
is not the only one. There are thou
sands of alumni in Wisconsin who are
asking the same question. Mr.. Wall
writes as follows:
'La Grande, Ore, Nov. Is, 1910.
Sporting Editor Sentinel, Milwau-
kee Wis: Is not the poor showing
of the University of Wisconsin foot
ball teams for the last Ave seasons
due in a very large measure to the
failure of the athletic authorities at
Madison to retain PlTT King as coach?
wisconsin was always Wisconsin
when King was on the job as football
mentor. and no such adverse scores
as 2S to were known to cardinal
teams in his ten years as coach
THE athletic bosses at the univer-
sity should bestir themselves, secure
King for next fall in order to have a
creditabIe football team. or else drop

seed MEN WANT ACTION
North Dakota Seed Men Will Ask for
a Strict enforcement OF Noxious
Weed Law.

AS a result Of meeting held in
Fargo Saturday by the North Dakota
seed men, Ii is entirely probable that
the next legislature will be urged to
support a strict compliance with the
state weed law.
The state has a very good weed law
on the statute books but there Is
seemingly no effort to enforce it to
any degree. The seed men have come
to the conclusion that II is unfair
and unjust TO ask them to throw away
their impure seeds, because Of the
weed mixture In them, when the over
seers of the roads and highways are
doing practically nothing 10 prevent
noxious weeds growing along the
roadside.
AT the meeting Saturday Professor
Bolley of the A. C. gave an address
urging all the seed men to pull for
greater cooperation and in this way
they could more easily secure meas
ures that would be desired. He also
urged the orga nization of a state as
sociatiol OF seed men, to further pro-
mote purity along the line of seed
products.

CLEVELAND AFTER
OLYMPIC Event

Cleveland, Ohio, Dec. 13.-The city
of Cleveland Is taking up the project
OF holding the Olympic games of 1915
here, and for the last couple of weeks
nothing else has been discussed by the
sporting fraternity of the forest city.
1t has been decided to send an ennis
sary to The Hague at the next con-
ference of the International Olympic
committee, and he will have power to
lay Cleveland's ofeAz for the fixture be-
fore the conclave.
If Cleveland cannot land meeting
for 1915 1t is probable that the au-
thorities will go ahead and schedule
meeting for 1914. There Is nothing
to prevent a big olympic celebration
being held here then, and there need
be no consant asked of the interna-
tionai Olympic committee of which
Baron de Coubertin Is the presidep.,
One thing might crop up 20 interfere
with the Cleveland fixture. II the
Greeks pull themselves together and
want to hold an in between meet that
same year America might want TO
send a team 10 Greece. and foreigners
| m gIt not want to. come to America
| for the contests.
When the regular Olympic meet was
held at St. Louis in 1904 there were
very few men from the other side OF
the pond, those to show being couple
OF Greeks. couple Of Germans and an
Australian. For the Cleveianders Ic
annex the regular Olympic meet Of
1915 Ii means an awful amount OF
| work, and with the chances decidedly
against the project. 1t would all de-
pend on the help given the stars and
stripes by j. Allison Armour and Prof
Sloan, the American Representatives
on the committee. Though this meet.
i ing Is six years away, there has beer
Il a iacit understanding that It will u
to Germany and he held at Berlin.
In fact, the plans Of the Berlin sta
