BIT OVER REGULAR WEIGHT
Bob MOha to Cross Gloves with
Roy Kenney in Ten-ROund
Bout at Browns.

Jimmy Clabby. the sterling boxer Of the
Middle West, demands recognition among
the list Of aspirants for the wclterweight
title. Clabby is out with challenges to
Mike Gibbons, the wizard of St Paul.
who is conceded to be about the best man
OF his class, and "Packey' Mcfarland,
rated by many as without a superior In
the roped arena. Neither of these men has
shown the slightest disposition TO argue
the question with Clabby in the ring, al
though much airy persifage has been
hurled back and forth around the tri-
angle.
Clabby declares that he can box at l8
pounds in the ring and be strong. This
weight IS slightly outside the true weller
weight limit as insisted upon by the later
day Shylocks Of the ring, and probably
explains the reason for Mcfarland de-
clining the issue Gibbons however, has
no legitimate excuse. Mike has boxed his
best battles in this city and in the East
at about las pounds, which is hi. natural
weight.
Gibbons had a practical demonstration
OF the skill OF Clabby in ten-round bout
in ST. Paul on March u, 1910, and also IN
no decision contests in Milwaukee and
Winnipeg later. Clabby received the Do
clsion in the first contest, and easily hsld
his own In the other two. His ability 70
fight in close as we'll as stand of and
box cleverly bothered Gibbons TO no end.
Clabby has met many OF the best men
in the ring. both in the welterweight and
niddlewelght divisions.

WITH the close of the first
month of President Wilson's
administration general salts
faction is expressed by men of
all political parties. The
American people have, clearly,
implicit faith in the new presi-
dent. The Boston Mass
Traveller recently printed this
editorial:
president Wilson closes the
fourth week of his first term.
Thus far he has not done many
unusual things, but he has
done some usual things in an
unusual way. 1t is too early
to say that he has made good.
but it is not too early to say
that he is beginning like a
president who will make good.
There is not a lingering doubt
that he will be his own man,
and the number of democrats
who have not already learned
that fact is few, as far as prom
inence goes, and unimportant
as far as numbers go. He is
acting every day like a presid-
ent who intends as far as posi-
bic to live up to his reputation,
as we'll as to the platform of
his party, and it is no more
probable that he will bunco
the people than that he will
allow himself to be buncoed by
so-called friends of the people.
So far he has made mighty
few mistakes. Every patriotic
citizen, regardless of his
politics, will rejoice that this
is So"

THE GROSS OF GOLD'

The Literary Digest, in it's
reproduction Of newspaper
comments upon what it calls
'Rescuing China from the
Cross of Gold,' says: The
crucifixion of China upon a
Cross of gold would naturally
be repugnant to an administra-
ton whose foreign affairs are
in the hands of the present
secretary of state, and our keen
editorial observers see in the
disapproval of the Chinese loan
a similar chilling attitude to-
ward the entire Taft program
of dollar diplomacy BY
dollar diplomacy" the press
means the use of government
influence to aid and protect our
bankers and traders in their
transactions with Latin-Ameri-
can republics and with
China, a striking example be-
ing our armed interference in
the revolution in Nicaragua.
In China's case it now appears
from the presidents statement
that the Taft administration re-
quested our bankers to join in
the "six-power" loan to China,
a loan so onerous in it's terms
as to touch very nearly the
administrative independence of
China ITSELF" and it has been
openly charged by our advo-
Gates of recognizing thee Chinese
republic, that recognition has
been delayed by all the powers
to put the screws on China and
force acceptance of the loan.
Now the Wilson administration
explicitly disapproves the en-.
tire Chinese transaction, and
most of those who were wait
ing for an unequivocal declara-
ton of the new administrations
attitude toward dollar diplom-
acy" are satisfied by the presi-
dents statementthat this policy
of the Knox regime has been
definitely repudiated. T h e
change of front is made more
emphatic by the resignation OF
Huntington Wilson, assistant
secretary of state, who was
closely identified with the
development of dollar diplom.
acy' under Secretary Knox.
Az the Springfield Republican
sums it up, the present admin
istration takes the stand that
banking houses making foreign
loans cannot have Uncle Sam
as their collecting agent.
