PUT MAXIM THROUGH WINDOW.
Late Albert NJ Allbe Once Boxed
DISTINGUISHED Inventor.

The death of Sir Hiram Maxim in
England Friday recalls to mind the fact
that a former resident of Bellows Falls,
the late Albert NJ. Allbe, who was
born in Westminster, once knocked the
man who later became a distinguished
inventor, through window Maxim S
uncle was the owner of a machine shop
in Fitchburg and Maxim and Allbe. at
that time both young men, were EN-
ployed there. Maxim was sturdy and
extremely proud of his reputation as a
boxer.
Allbe was fresh from Vermont and
knew nothing of the science of boxing,
although he knew something about
rough and tumble fighting. He was
over six feet in height and correspond
ingly strong. Maxim and his friends
coaxed the big Vermonter, after he had
been in Fitchburg a few weeks, to put
on the gloves. lie at last consented,
although he was not partial to the
sport. Gloves i'll those days were not
made as those in use today, fitting
the hand tight and being minus any
padding.
The bout took place in the uncle 5
al

| few moments. Maxim landed a few
| blows on Allbe's face and body and
then the six footer let loose what is
| termed a haymaker.' 1t caught
Maxim on the jaw and sent him
through larga bay window which was
built i'll the office.
Before the ,wreckage could be cleared
away and while the man who later be
came an English lord was washing
away the signs of his defeat th1
81 boss returned from dinner. AlIbe
expected to be discharged. But the
owner simply informed the nephew that
future fights must take place outside
the office, and then privately took All
be to one side and congratulated hin
on his victory.
After the boxing match the two con
tcstants became close friends and con
tinued so until the Ncrmonter returned
to his native state, where he studied Law
and practieed in Londonderry, West

tins law that no unnecessary work

supplied flowers to church, a man
who gave another gasoline for his au-

engaged in doiag sundry little things
for themselves. The courts cannot

Farmers and Free Trade

One may well believe that the Canadian farm
ers are feeling gloomy over the prospects of
Hughes election and the repeal OF the Under
wood tariff. We recently showed what an adj
vantage the Underwood tariff had been to the
manufacturers of Canada But the Canadian
farmers have prohted as much. The removal OF
the duties on cattle, swine, sheep, lambs, rye,
eggs, buckwheat, corn, cream, bacon, ham, pre-
served meats, lard, cornmeal and other agricul-
tural products was great boon to them. They
got all this without being compelled to make any
concessions to American products, as they would
have been forced to do under the proposed reci-
procity treaty. The figures on exports of living
animals are eloquent. In 1912 the total value Of
exports OF animals from Canada to the United
States was only $l.6o7,06l while in 1915 it had
jumped to $l4,052s78. The farmers along the
northern tier Of states have been naturally hit
the first and the hardest They will bear it in,
mind when they vote next week.
But farmers elsewhere are realizing what
democratic free trade means to them. H. M. Pope
of Fort Worth, Tex, president of the Association
of State Farmers Union Presidents, is sending
out pamphlet setting out just what the Under
wood tariff means, He shows that when ship
loads of corn began arriving at Galveston from
South America, after the Underwood tariff went
into effect, the price of corn fell cents bushe
lea three crops of corn are raised in fourteen
months, on cheap, but productive land. The
wages paid farm labor are also far below that
American farmers must pay transportation
except from points at considerable distance from
water, costs very little.
lust now there is an abnormal demand for
farm products, due to the great war. But this
demand will slacken at the coming Of peace. The
American farmer is just as interested in the res
toration of republican protective tariff as the
American manufacturer and the army of wage
earners in the factories.

Internationally Overlooked.

From subscriber residing in an interior
town, who was forciby struck with The Bees
enumeration Of democratic peace-time war taxes,
we have the following calling attention to an
other one unintentionally overlooked;
In the items on the first page Of The Bee
of the things "We must not forget" you left
out one item. Don't forget, the democrat adj
ministration put license tax OF $500, to be
paid semi annually on every pool table, and then
took the boys down to the border and kept
them there regardless Of their business at
home. No wonder Wilson wants to hold the
Guards on the border and keep them from vot-
ing, for he knows, il they were allowed to come
home, he would be beaten 10 to |, and he thinks
by keeping them there he stands big show
Surely there are enough relatives and friends
(of the Guards on the border) at home to beat
him anyway But what il they don'ti Then
fear he will keep the boys there just to spend
as much Of that democratic tax before next
March as he possibly can. o, the consistency
to say you must pay so much license tax for
each pool table" and then ship your boys to the
border to serve him. have three boys in one
company OF the Fourth Nebraska, and know
how much they think OF Wilson and the demo-
cratic administration,
This tells the story so graphically and so
clearly that il needs no further comment from us.
