Mahout of Mat Game Says

wrestling game. He says quite casually
that they are harder Of head and thicker

The cause OF the great mental anguish
OF Wild William Is the mere insinuation
that there is a wrestling trust or COM
bine in restraint of the h-as-catch-

charge has been made that William will
not permit any of the trained pachy-
derms in his stable to play with Marin

KILBANE'S CROWN
SOUGHT BY DUNDEE
Italian Boxer Posts Check for
$4,000 to Bind Match With
Featherweight Champion.
BY CHARLES F. MATHIsoN.

Johnny Dundee has gone over the
top in an effort to dislodge Johnny Kill
bane from his championship citadel.
check for $4,000 with Tex Rickard to
bind a match with Kilbane at the pres
ent limit of the class of 126 pounds at
. p. NJ
Dundee adds that if Kilbane ignores
the challenge he will appeal to the box
ing boards throughout the country pro-
testing against Kilbane's refusal to de-
fend his title. Dundee says he will be
justified in claiming the featherweight
championship, basing his claim on the
showing he made against Kibane when
they met at Vernon, Cal. In this bout
Dundee. weighing 121 u pounds, battled
Kilbane twenty rounds to draw; II
was referees decision.
Dundee can easily make the feather
weight requirements, 126 pounds. He
plans to rest a bit now and will not be
seen in action again until February "a.
when he is booked to box Hanlon in
Scranton. Pa.
Possibly the boxing boards of the
country will succeed in compelling Kill
bane to get into the ring in defense of
his title, but it is not probable.
KiIbane Won Title mt 122.
Kilbane won the American feather.
weight title from Abe Attell at 122
pounds ringside, and the Clevelandef in
sists that no power exists that can CON-
pei him to fight for his crown at 126
pounds. Klbane declares he does not
recognize the authority of the Interna-
tonal Boxing Union OF Europe and the
National Boxing Association of America
in changing the limit of the feather
weight division from 122 pounds TO 126
pounds, and he defies them to take his
championship away from him on any
weight pretext.
So far as Dundee claiming the title is
concerned Kilbane would merely giggle
at the Italian. and the only chance of
the championship changing hands will
be due to extreme old age on the part OF
Kilbane or his voluntary retirement from
the ring. Dundee's $4,000 check
threatens to become desk worn waiting
for reply from the champion.
Dan Morgan announced yesterday that
he had received a big offer to match
lack Britton with the winner of the
coming Carpentier-Ted Lewis encounter
in London, the contest to take place in
May.
"Britton feels that IL Lewis is not
afraid to battle the Frenchman,' de.
clared Morgan, "why should he refuse
to fight the winner? Although Jack is
welterweight he has whipped more
middleweights and light heavyweights
than he has men OF his weight. He is
rot holding Dave Shade cheaply.
The welterweight champion makes
next Tuesday his second appearance in
the Garden, since the inception of the
Walker law. Last year he whipped Ted
Lewis in fifteen hard rounds.

in the case Of cotton, and speaking
generally, it is true with reference to
nearly all of our staple food products.
We must either export our enormous
surplus of food products or curtail the
production of them, else the surplus
will swamp the American market, and
reduce below the point of profit the
domestic price.
TT therefore, is evident that the
prosperity of the farmer is depend
| ent upon our export trade, and it is
too self-evident to require elabora-
ton that the volume of our exports
is directly dependent upon and
largely measured by the volume OF
our imports. 1t is a tfuism which
nobody disputes and truism which
! even the President of the United
States has emphasized that no nation
| can expect to sell abroad, even un
der normal conditions, unless it /:

basis upon which our internationa
trade rests.
Before the war we were a debtol

then depended upon Europe for oceal
transportation, which made us fur
ther debtors to them. So that, withou
selling us any great amount. our an

and greater. Owing to the expansion
brought about by war conditions it is
difficult to measure the present de-
gree of dependence of American pros
perity upon foreign markets.
mo part of our population is more
dependent upon foreign markets for
the sale Of their surplus products than
the American farmer. 1t is true that
we produce a number of farm pro-
ducts which are not exported, because
the amount of them is unequal to the
American demand for them, but the
production of many'of the staple agri-
cultural products in this country is
enormously in excess of the domestic
demand.
"Our exports of cotton head the
list. We produce under normal con-
ditions more than twice as much cot
ton as we need or can use in this coun-
try. If we cannot sell abroad that
part of our cotton production will
become vaiueless, and the congestion
which will follow in the American
market will so reduce the price of the
half consumed product as to render
it impossible and Improbable. to con
tinue its productions

of being given protection for the
first time in the history OF tariff
tinkering says Senator Simmons of
North Carilona, the farme" is hand
ed 'gold brick" in the new tariff
bill which will undo any benefit he
may have derived from the legisla-
tion fostered previously by the "Agri-
cultural Bloc"
Most of the effective duties in the
bin are applied to products of uniVer
sal consumption, which are produced
by Il relatively small number of farm
ers," Senator Simmons contends.
'"They are only produced by farmers
in certain sections and in certain
groups. Take sugar and wool for in
stance. Sugar and wool are consumed
by all the people. Sugar is produced
in Louisiana and few Western States.
While wool is produced in good
many States it is only produced on a
large scale in certain sections of the
country.
'The number of warmers producing
sugar and wool compared with the
total number of asricuturists is small,
and yet as the farmers of this country
purchase from forty to fifty per cent
of all OF the products consumed they
will have to pay one-half of the duty
on these products plus one half of
the increase in the prices of woolens
and refined sugar as a result of the
additional compensatory duties allow
ed the manufacturers of woolen goods
and the refiners of sugar.
Estimates of Experts
at is estimated by experts that
the producers of wool stand to gain
something like $45,O00,00O for their
wool, but as a result VI the increase
in the rates of wool manufactures
the additional amount which the
farmers of the country will have to
pay for their clothing and other
wooden purchases will be from three
to four times as much as the wool
growers gain. In other words, the
American farmers as a whole will be
taxed four dollars, while a relatively
few of their number who are engaged
in the production of wool will get one
| dollar.
american prosperity has been
! largely dependent for many years
| upon our finding foreign markets for
our exportable surplus, as we have
expanded our production of agricul-
tural and manufactured products.

toward the payment of their annual
purchases from us. Besides, the
treasures of Europe were then full
of gold, and any balance of trade
against them could be readily liqui-
dated without embarrassment
THAT situation is entirely different
now. We paid off our European in-
debtedness during the war. Europe
owes us, in round figures, about, $l1,-
900, 100000 II, under such changed
conditions, we cut off, by prohibitive
tariff rates, imports from abroad or
materially reduce importations below
the present level it will inevitably be
impossible for our European debtors
to continue to buy our products large

have of paying for them is by an ex-
change of their goods for ours. And

WIFE AND CHILDREN

In the prison dock there stands
One that sin and folly brands:
For a term of years he'll dwell
In bare and narrow cell,
And the law, with judgment grim,
Gives the punishment to him,
But the wife and children share
Every stripe he has to wear.
Wife and children! Oh, take care,
They must suffer all you bear;
There is nothing you can do
But they share its burden, too.
One you are In thought and deed,
One in every hour of need,
Make no pitiful mistake
For your wife's and children's 3 sake.

Always wife and children bear
All the shame and hurt and care.
