TIE MINNEAPOLIS JOURNAL


Minneapolis. August A.-There
are several reasons why champion
Joe Louis and challenger Tommy
Farr are going to fight for the
heavyweight title In New York on
Thursday, but certainly 1t Is not be-
cause Farr Is the most worthy con-
tender.
Farr is the favored party. first
because the promoters wanted to
prevent Max Schmeling from keep
ing himself on edge by fighting
Farr in England, and secondly, be-
cause they wanted to keep champ
ion Louis busy without really en-
dangering his title.
Farr meets the requirements. He
had signed to fight Schmeling and
that was fight Schmeling needed
in order to hold good fighting
form. Promoter Mike Jacobs in
duced him to break that contract
and come to America. That made
1t certain Scheling would remain
idle and would accumulate more
rust in his fighting machinery and
that Louis would keep busy and
thus remain keen for fighting
against time when he might have
to meet a really dangerous man.
The plotting against poor Max
is deep and unrelenting. Louis and
his managers learned in their
fight with Jimmy Braddock that
a man who has been out Of action
for nearly two years has not the
accurate timing needed to make his
punches dangerous.
They are genuinely afraid OF
Schmeling but they realize that, If
they can see to it that he too, stays
out Of the ring for two years he
will not be a dangerous opponent.
1t was with that in mind that they
induced Braddock to break q con-
tract with Schmeling and gave him
Louis to fight and, subsequently
stole Farr away from the German
and gave him to Louis.
There is no sporting justification
for this maneuvering, but 1t Is
what happens when a monopoly is
established and all the power falls
into the hands Of one man who
has no interest in the sport he
dominates beyond enriching him.
self.
There have been many upsets in
boxing. Fighters who were ac-
corded virtually no chance y have
risen to unexpected heights and
dashed the favorites into defeat;
but it will be the upset Of all up
sets, the utterly incredible accident
of the ages, If Tommy Farr does
anything more than present Louis
stubborn opposition.
There are only two men who be-
long in the ring with Louis and
Louis is lodging them both. The
first is Max Schmeling. The second
is Bob Pastor. It is probably that
the cunning campaign by which
Louis handlers are stealing
Something's opponents away from
him will ultimately dull his fight
ing keeness and make him ready
victim for Louis. Certainly it Is the
plan to keep the two men apart
until the promoters know Schmel-
ing is ready to be beaten.
Maybe the time has passed, any
way, when Schmeling could beat
the Bomber. just the same, the
very actions of the Louis faction
in keeping away from him as long
as they can is clear proof that
there was no element of luck in
the first fight and that the Louis
boys themselves realize Schmeling

urgent needs of these growers
Mr.. Farrell thought 1t would be
possible for the government to go
into the northwest and buy ten mill
lion bushels for export which they
would pay a bounty Of twenty
cents. II this were done 1t would
mean about SIC. 100000 additional
for the entire 1887 crop and It
would cost the government two
million dollars to put this policy
into effect. Think what this $10,-
100000 would mean to rye grow
ers and those engaged in business
in the rye growing districts.
In talking with Mr.. Farrell he
expressed the opinion that few
members Of Congress or so-called
experts Of the Agricultural Depart
ment know enough about the agri-
cultural problem from practical ex-
perience to solve 1t and I asked
him why 1t would not be a good
plan to hold meetings Of practical
farmers in all parts Of the country
and get their views on what should
be done. He thought 1t would be a
fine idea and I asked him II he
would be willing to come out to
Minnesota either in September or
October If I arranged for several
such meetings and he said he
would be glad to do so.
I have confidence in Mr.. Farrell
because he is practical and what Is
equally important, he Is sincerely
DESTROYS Of finding a solution.
Frankly speaking, the agricultural
question has been more political
than economic. BY that I mean
that there has been a tendency to
approach the question from a pol
itical angle. We are never going to
get anywhere until we face the
problem without regard to politics.
Chinese Eggs
I am a member Of the sub-com-
mittee Of the Ways and Means
Committee appointed to consider
the advisability of imposing an ex-
else tax on eggs and egg products,
and we held meeting one OTTER
noon not long ago which developed
some startling facts. For instance,
we found that there is difference
of nearly II cents per pound be-
tween the American dried yolk as
compared with Chinese imported
yolk, including the tariff, and the
dried Chinese egs are gradually
displacing the American product
Notwithstanding the import tax
that is imposed upon these pro-
ducts. The figures submitted at the
hearing show that from January l
to May 81 we imported 100000
pounds Of dried yolk which Is
equivalent to 11,2O5, 900 pounds Of
whole egg and 1,270,0O0 pounds Of
dried albumin, equivalent to IL,
$4,000 pounds Of whole egg. Last
year we imported less than one
half of this amount so it can read
lily be seen that importations as
Stunning alarming proportions.
Congress Adjourns
After running the national debt
up to new high Of more than
$37, 900, 900 the first session OF
the Seventy-fifth Congress came to
an end last Saturday. Unless some
unforeseen event Of national mag
nitude should arise there Is little
prospect Of a special session be-
fore the next regular meeting of
the Congress scheduled for JAN
uary 3, 1888.
We are all glad to get away from
this sweltering heat and it will
seem good to get back to good old
Minnesota.

Here Are the Perfect

BY ELSIE PIERCE.

FROM time to time I have letters,
chiefly from very. very young
things, asking what the ideal dimen-
sions are =. what should ones bust
measurement be, and ones hips, and
ankles and so on.
I usually hesitate to give the So
called ideal dimensions. First, be-
cause they vary from time to time.
Second, because there is too much
danger Of their being taken too seri-
ously. I can't see that it matters
very much If the uaistline is one inch
more than It should be- or the ankle
half inch less. The general impress
sion OF proportion, the picture you
flash as well-molded, well-made
figure-that's far more important than
perfect dimensions. Then too. remem-
Der that ones build must be taken
into consideration. The short. stocky
person naturally will measure more

proportion enters So long as YOU
