KEATING BILL
PUSSES HOUSE
Measure which is Aimed at Curtail
ment of Child Labor in Fac
tories Meets with Favor.
WASINGTON, D. C. Feb. 4.—
The measure Introduced into the
House by Representative Edward
Keating, of Colorado, which protest*:
against the shipment interstate com-1
mercial goods manufactured by chil
dren under the age of sixteen years
has passed the house.
It is expected that a fight will be
made against the measure when 1*
comes up in the Senate as under its
provisions interstate commerce laws
wr .Id be invalidated. The measure,
ii passed, would result in thousands
of articles which are manufactured
in eastern factories where children
are employed being excluded from
other states and would bring ruin
to the eastern manufacturers, as the
field for their products would be
limited to the state in which they
were manufactured.
OiLLION AGREES
TO FIGHT MORAN
Contest will be held before Milwau
kee Club at Date to be Arrang
ed for Next Month.
Chicago, Feb. 4.—Jack Dillion has
accepted the offer to fight Frank
Moran before a Milwaukee club at
jome date to be arranged later. Both
men have posted forfeits to be in the
ring on the date set for the contest.
It is understood that Dillion in his
anxiety to secure a match with Moran
has agreed that the latter should get
the lion’s share of the purse no mat
ter what the outcome of the contest.
Dillion is regaiu^u by many sport
ing writers as a possible champion
as he has met a number of contend
ers for high honors and in each case
secured a decision. His victory over
Joe Mace at Munlce, Ind., last July,
when he scored a knockout in the
third round brought him up among
the few men who are entitled to be
regarded as possible champions.

. K
“I have been investigating several of the
recent makes of machines, seeking for one of
simple construction for ordinary manuscript
. and letter writing. I was nearly read y to buy
a machine of another make when 1 just hap
pened to see for the first time the Remington
Junior, and found it to be the very thing I wanted; !
and that was a typewriter built simpler and ;■
not incumbered with fixtures not needed for j
writing ordinary manuscript or letters.”
The man who wrote this is the post
master of a small Southern town. He is
r
only one of thousands who have recently
bought a Remington Junior. But his
