Unwise and Unfair Agitation,

For many months preparations have
been under way for a fistic encounter
at Jersey City between the American
world champion" and a French con-
tender for the title. An immense guam
tity Of lumber has been 2ase@sEei and
wrought into a gigantic arena. Tickets
have been engraved and printed-and
counterfeited-and sold by tens Of
thousands throughout the country
The fighters have been in training for
weeks The whole preliminary pro-
cedure has cost a great sum of money,
50 great that the finances Of the bout
are reckoned in hundreds of thousands,
the fighters to split purse Of half a
million. All Of these preparations have
been with the full knowledge and ap-
proval Of the public authorities in New
Jersey, who have read from the law
Of the state their sanction for permit
ting and in effect officially supervising
the enterprise. Practically at the last
moment, only a few days before the
fight, an effort has been made to stop
it. First an appeal was made to the
federal Secretary Of State, who has,
however. nothing whatever to do with
the matter. and then an effort was
made to secure injunctions from New
Jersey courts. One after the other
these courts have refused action. A
last appeal is to be made to the secre.
tary Of state Of New Jersey, for pro-
csdure against the promoter Of the

law in the one case, and the Payne
Aldrich law in the other, caused sor.
row to the authors and those they rep
resented.
The fundamental proposition is pro-
lection. The existing difficulty arises
out Of conflicting opinions about ap'
plying the policy. A good deal depends
on bringing the two republican fac
tions together. The country needs a
better tariff law than the one now on
the books, and if the party in power
fails to provide such a law it will have
to answer for its delinquency as early
as next year.

A CHANGED Dream of Empire.

Even dreams change. A few years
ago the fashionable dream Of en-
pire" was an "Anglo-Saxon' one. and
the hyphenated word was interpreted
with a liberality that included the
Teutonic peoples. The world was to
be governed and made to do right by
a triumvirate or "dreibund" COM
posed Of Germany. ENGLAND and. as
bad or tolerated third, America. The
parceling of what Admiral Sims SO
strikingly describes as "the round
globe" had already begun.
Well, that dream was shattered in
the early morning. And such new
dreamers as Sims and host Of kim
dred spirits are reviving it in an
amended form. 1t is. of course. the
same old dream-Caesarean, Alexan-
drine. Barcan, Eapoleonic; but the
world is utterly weary of dreams,
this little thumb-ring Of an earth,"
and sighs for the unmartial con-
quests Of the mart"

Traders who have been up to recent
ly identified with the selling eide of
wheat were big buyers today on cvety
downturn. Sentiment in favor OF the
bull side gathered forco chiefly from
the unusual amount OF export busi-
ness, but much notice also was taken
of renewed misEiyinCs about crop
damage from green bugs in the south
west. Gossip, however. that Argentine
wheat was coming to New York led
to something of a bear reaction at the
last.
Corn and oats borrowed strength
from wheat and were also bullishiy af-
tested by a falling off in receipts OF
corn.
Provisions altho at first weakened

Trailing Pine.
Large quantities of trailing pine, also
known as princess pine. and ground hem
lock are used at Christmas time. These
plants really are not pines or hemloeks,
but are closely related to the ferns.
AS Christmas trees can be raised at
a profit, so it is also possible to raise the
Christmas holly and the mistletoe by
artificial means. In that way an ade-
quate supply may be insured for the fu-
ture, and all those who contribute to-
wards the developing of successful
methods of prOpagating these plants will
insure the welfare and happiness of fu-
ture generations.
