Articles Signed Yesterday.

The articles of agreement were signed
yesterday afternoon by Heagren as pro.
moter and by Fred Windsor for Coffey
and Sammy McClintic for George. Kid
George is in Reno at the present time,
but will be sent transportation at once
so that he will have plenty time to
reach here and train properly for the
bout.
While neither one of these men ia
what can be termed champions. it takes
a champion TO beat either one of them.
They have both met all the crack mid
dleweights in the country and have al.
ways made a creditable showing. They
have both met such men as Klaus. Dill
lon, McGoorty and Gibbons, and while
these topnotchers were able to win a
decision over them, they were ALWAYS
there at the finish and going good.
They have both gone the twenty round
distance with Sailor Ed Petrosky.
The. sport-loving public OF this city
has always shown their eagerness to
patronize high-class bouts Of this kind.

Must Be Work OF Experts.

There will never be a consistent
uniform and scientific tariff revision
until the rule is adopted that congress
shall enact the principle on which the
tariff shall be framed and non-parti-
san experts shall fix the rates which
conform to that principle. 1t Is the
function Of congress to say whether
the rates shall be for revenue with
Incidental protection. for protection
only to the wages of labor, or for pro-
lection to exclude all foreign compe-
tition. That is the part OF the tariff
question that cannot and should not
be taken out of politics.
But when that principle is enacted
the labor Of settling what rates carry
out the principle is for experts. Under
the present system no tariff bill for
decades has been true to its professed
principle in all It's parts.
The L'Anse sentinel. (L'Anse, L.S., Mich.) 18??-current, 1913-10-11
Plain Fact Remains.

Existing conditions do not lead rs
to believe that free trade will bring
about any different results now from
those which have appeared in the past
A policy which is intended primarily
to expand imports must necessarily
limit the demand for homemade pro
auctions. This Is the avowed object
Of the new free trade tariff. The
president SO declares. II is, he tells
US. the emancipation Of the business
Of the country from oppression. This
is the academic view.
But the fact remains that trouble
begins when our wage earners face
closed workshops and factories run
ming on half time. The president will
live long enough to ascertain this fact
and possibly to realize that only when
our wage earners are wen employed
can our country be prosperous.
The L'Anse sentinel. (L'Anse, L.S., Mich.) 18??-current, 1913-10-11
The Backward Trend.

A year ago the army OF Armageddon
prided itsclf on being good first in
many sections and a strong second in
others. Its followers were encour-
aged to the point OF holiness, and pre-
.dicted greater growth. thus insuring
its permanency as political power.
In less than year II is trailing third.
with prospects Of dropping notch
lower. Instead of growing bigger 1t
Is shrinking with rapidity that Is
significant Recent primaries in the
northwest found II In third place: In
Michigan the same result was re-
corded.

Calls for Explanation.

While the banana tax Is being set
tied by President Wilson. If he is to
settle II. we hope that he will also
undertake to make perfectly clear the
real reasons for taking the banana
duty out OF the tariff measure. SO
far as we are concerned We think that
the masses who eat the bananas daily
ought to have the benefit of the doubt.
II there is any possible chance that
the banana tax or any part Of It would
como out OF the pockets of the poor
man, we should be in favor Of avoid
Ing the risk by killing the banana
duty. But the Democratic senators
who passed the tax said there was no
risk. Yet they were making tariff
for Mr.. Wilson. who undoubtedly
thinks there Is a tax.
