Editorial Comment
Mr.. Kinds Absolutely Sincere.

consistency, thou art "a jewel" In
opposing the Canadian reciprocity
agreement Congressman Kinds is con-
slstent with his record. He opposed
reciprocity in his campaign last sum-
mer. and he opposes it now in d no.
table speech on the floor of the House
and for the same reason. In all
things Mr.. Kinds is absolutely sin
cere. He sincerely believes that re-
clprocity with Canada would not be
for the interests of the Maine farmers
and so believing he will maintain his
convictions at any cost. For the man
of sincerity every candid person must
feel respect even though differing in
opinion. 1t is evidence that the Maine
farmers, most if not all of them, agree
with Mr.. Kinds. Even the Democrat
lc Legislature declined to endorse the
reciprocity agreement. On this aues-
ton there is a difference of opinion in
the Republican party, but there is
room for difference of opinion in the

medical STAFF and attendants in the
hospital these are known as "out-pa-

their homes and visit the daily free

demand. Not only is this an inter

it is Il very important branch.
1t is for the benefit of thosn pa
tients that the daily free clinics arc
held at the hospital from 33O to 40
in the afternoon. In the beginning
these clinics We're held only three
times a week, Mondays, Wednesd sdays
and Fridays but the demands upon
them have grown so that it has been
found necessary to have them each
afternoon. The attendance at these
runs from 80 to so, and is constantly
Increasing. During tie year ending
m December. 1910 there were 1000
of these treatments given. The num-
Der given up to the present time in
.licatcs that the total for the year
which will enl in December next will
be nearly 1000
1t may be supposed by semc that all
oi these cases come from Portland and
the immediate Nleinity. This Is in
correct. The patients who receive
treatment at these daily clinics come
from ali over the State. from up in

FIGHT GAME TRvES IN new YORK AND POLICE CAN'T INTERFERE
Led by Billy Gibson. Promoters
Protected by Injunction Have
Boosted Sport to High Plane

NEW YORK, Feb. 4.--The law
Dick and Harry so Tom and Jerry
may find the errors and keep the
vulgarly rich out of jail--says
prize fighting shall not be permit
ted in New York--so the promot-
ers stage boxing matches.
You can see good fights-they
are called boxing matches only in
legal circles-almost nightly in
New York. In fact, you may see
several night, for the average
fight bill means four or five bouts.
The fight fan will never be lone
some here as long as Justice Sea-
bury's Injunction holds good. This
Injunction, by the way, is a unique
institution. Billy Gibson, Manhat-
tan's fight impresario, claims 1t
was the most quickly granted per-
manent injunction ever turned out
by New York supreme court.
Gibson and his associate pro-
moters were trying to put the
fighting game upon its feet in New
York for long time, but the po-
lice insisted on interfering. Pos
sibly the police we're actuated by
proper indignation and then may
be the money wasn't being split to
suit 1.-The big finger" But what
ever the reason, the bluecoats
raided the clubs whenever they
needed exercise.
Then Gibson, nestor of the pro-
motors, went to the mat with the
department. He appealed to JUS
tice Seabury for a restraining or
der, and eSabury granted per-
manent injunction holding the
Fairmont club was a bona fide
athletic club and that the bouts
were permissible before club
members. Now a policeman try

of Gibson's initiative, and, free
from interference, match the best

New York every week than in any
three or four western cities COM
bined. The administration is in
favor of the game because the
voters want it, so both boxers and
promoters thrive.
A fight crowd at the Fairmont
club is about as cosmopolitan a
gathering as you'd see at a re-
newal of the Suburban handicap.
In the boxes when the card is
stronger than usual you may see
men whose names make Wall
street tremble; actors known to
every city in the land; club men,
in immaculate dress; shining
lights Of the sporting world, law
yers, physicians, judges and solid
business men-and they stand up
and whoop like the Shareholders
in the back seats, forgetting their
responsibilities and enjoying
themselves to the limit.
The fighting game is at its
zenith. Its future is bright with
