President on Reciprocity.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 31 The lat pub-
Hfl utterance of rrr-sldent McKlnley In j
favor of reciprocity the day before he
is assnsslnated a( Prtffalo were recalled
last night by President Taft In an adilreos
at the t)hlo anclety'a anniversary ban
ouet In commemoration of the McKlnley
birthday.
Many men associated with President Mc
Klnley fn public office and leading Ohloans
were present. Justice Day. former Vice
President Fairbanks and Senator Dick of
Ohio were among tha apeakera.
President Taft eulogized tha character
of the martyred president and paid a
high tribute to his attitude on the com
mercial expnnslon of the country, with
particular reference to the declarations In
favor of reciprocity generally, made by
President McKlnley at the Pan-American
exposition at Bufialo.
"The broadening effect of the national
responsibility McKlnley had to carry,"
Id President Taft, "shows Itself In no
respect more conspicuously than In bla
change of view regarding a policy of
which he had always been the chief ex
ponent. May we not liope that the change
he advocated may aoon find expression In
our national policy toward our good neigh
bor on the north, who has come half way
t meet us? May the fragrance of hla
bt.'loved memory lead those upon whom
la the responsibility and Incline their
minds and hearts to this end.
Flttlnu Close to Century.
"The Canadian agreement. If confirmed,
will be a fitting close to a century's con
troversies and permanently establish good
feeling and commercial union between
kindred pen1ea. We shall find a rapidly
Increasing market for our numerous prod
ucts anion tha people of our neighbor.
We shall deepen and widen the aources
of our food supply In territory close at
hand. .",..
"Canada la our neighbor for J.000 miles.
She has become a great country Indeed, a
nation. She extends the brotherly hand
of friendship and. proposes closer relatione
with mutual benefits. Ought we to de
cline? The last word of McKlnley urge
acceptance." , . ,i
President Taft In reviewing the political
career of McKlnlty spoke of the campaign
of 18 as one In which the "fair name
and credit of the nation were at stake."
Of MeKlnley'a commercial policy, Presi
dent Taft said In part:
"Ha felt the expansion of tha country
Into a -great world power. He said the
future growth of Its commerce with other
nations. He came to know that the high
protective polity was too provincial and
that It waa time to moderate It. He had
mellowed in hla views on this subject. He
continued to bolleve In protection enough
to prevent our Industries from being de
stroyed by competition under conditions
abroad that were Impossible here, but he
' proposed to mitigate the excluslveness of
' protective tariff by reciprocity treatlea
that should reduce ratea where the, reduc
tions would ' do no substantial . Injury to
any class of our producers or manufac-
' turers and would secure more favorable
' markets for ourwrt goods.
Tint, for Liberality.
Accordingly, after his Second election, at
, Buffalo .JitJttftt AjnertoB' exposition
of Industries, and looking over toward our
sister country on the north, he spoke the
words showing that he thought the time
had come for greater liberality in our deal
ings with other countries and for mutual
benefits In reciprocal reductions of tariffs.
I use his language, uttered on the day be
fore he fell by the hand of the assassin:
.jiy enMlble trade, arrangements, which
will n''t' interrupt 'our home production,
we shall extend tha outlets of our Increas
ing surplus. A system which provides a
V mutual exchange of commodities Is manl-
Vfextly ,'Kenliui to ins conunueu ana neaitn-
ful growth oi our export iraae.
" 'We nniHt not repose In fancied security
that we .can forever sell everything and
buy Utile ir nothing. If such a thing were
nosilltlo, It would not be best for us or
for'thoso With whom we deal.
" "We should '. take, from our customers
such of their products as ws can use with
out harm to our Industries and labor
Reciprocity ,! the natural outgrowth of our
wonderful industrial development under the
domestic. polio Jiow firmly established.
" 'What. we produce beyond our domestic
consumption. ' must have , a vent abroad.
The exeeas roust ba relieved by a foreign
outlr-t, -"
The ferlod ef excluslveness Is past
The expansion of pur trade and commerce
h the prvtutlng problem. Commercial wars
are '' unprofitable. A policy of good will
and, friendly trade, relations will prevent
reprlMHls. , . .
" 'Reciprocity trestles are In harmony
with the. spirit of the times; measures of
retaliation are not. If, perchance, aome
of our -tariffs are no longer needed for
l e venae sK te encourage and protect our
Industries at home, why should they not
be employed to extend and promote our
markets ebrond?'
"Thus did McKlnley In his last
utterance declare for reciprocity."

Anti-Gambling Bill
Passes in California;'
Racing Unprofitable
Emeryville Meet Will Probably Be
Closed Before it it Scheduled
to Come to End.
HAI'RAH KT(). . ,U Jan. 31 -The
Walker-Young anti-race track gambling
l'il Wtsst-d the asxembU Tupsday. M to i. It
passed the senate on January 2 and now
gore to the governor for his signature. It
will become a law fifteen -days sfter It Is
signed.
The measure amends the Otis-Walker law
enacted at the last session of the legisla
ture by prohibiting all pool selling and
laying of wagers. Including "oral betting,"
on horse racing.
The passage of the Walker-Toung anti
race track bill by the legislature today Is
generally believed to mean the death knell
of racing In California.
The bill amends the Otis-Walker law
passed at the last session In such a way
as to place a severe penalty upon oral bet
ting, as well as on all other forms of lay
ing wagers on horses.
It probably will have the effect of clos
ing the Emeryville lrack before the close
of the meet now scheduled.
Thomas II. Williams, Jr., president of the
California Jockey club, virtually admitted
before the legislative committee In Hacra
mento that the measure would make racing
at Emeryville unprofitable. The Inference
was drswn that he would close the track.
Members of Bath Tub
Trust Enter Demurrer
Thirty-Two Individual Defendants
Charge Indictment is Insufficient
and Defective on Every Count.
DKTKOIT, ' Mich., Jan. 31. Thirty-two
Individual defendants in the criminal case
brought by the government against the
so-called bath tub trust yesterday entered a
demurrer in the local federal court. It Is
charged the allegations of the Indictment
do not constitute an offense under the
Jaws and sovereignty of the United Btstes;
that no offense Is alleged or stated In
which the court has Jurisdiction; that no
particular acts are charged to Individuals
and that the indictment in every count Is
Informal, Insufficient and defective.
The grand Jury on December 6. 1910, re
turned two Indictments against each de
fendant containing six and four counts re
spectively and charged that the defendants
control 86 per cent of the annual output of
enamel Ironware, bath tubs, sinks and lav
atories, etc.. In the United States. It was
also alleged the defendants combined to
restrain the trade of manufacturers and
Jobbers of plumbing supplies by refusing
to sell to Jobbers handling the goods of
so-called Independents, by the fixing of re
sale prices by the division of the Unlaid
States Into eleven, sones and refusing to
sell to Jobbers who would not maintain the
resale prlcea established by the alleged
agreement of the defendants.
The Indictments were returned against
sixteen firms and thirty-four Individuals.
All but two of the Individuals, J. L. Mott
of New York and I.. Wolff of Chicago,
pleaded not guilty. Services on Mr. Mott
and Mr. Wolff have been deferred In
definitely owing to their illness, it was
expected that the cases would come to
trial In the term of tha federal court be
ginning March 7.
"Now or Never" Day
Without Any Result
Danville Grand Jury Fails to Find
Witness Who Remembers
Enough to Confess.
iia.nviu,e, 111., Jan. SI. The "now or
never" day In the Vermillion county grand
Jury investigation on the vote traffic yester
day and has gone and the answer of the
politicians to the investigators was
"never," according to the admissions of
grand Jurors themselves.
This was the last day on which It was
believed possible to find a witness who by
a confession of Illegal practices at polling
time, would open the way for others, and
thus make a cleanup of the county's poli
tics. Tonight's conference of tha leadlrt
figures on the grand Jury was expected to
be the last on the vote situation and It wai
expected to lay down as the policy of the
grand Jury an abandonment of the invest!
gatlon st this time.
Most of those ward workera subpoenaed
for today. It waa learned by the Invest!- !
gators, were prepared to explain their ae
ceptance of money at the polls, as exposed
by previous witnesses. They were prepared
to say to a man they got the money aa
paid workers, not for their own votes, fol
lowing closely to the route blazed by the
court's public explanation.
When this was learned Foreman Wood
yard refused to call those summoned and
began at once work on routine matters.
It Is the general belief here the grand
Jury will pursue the plan of Judge Klm
brouah of clearing up Us "docket" and
adjourning, pnaslbly Friday, until the day
before the. spring elections. This action la
expected by the Judge to frighten off those
who plan to continue the corruption of
votei a.

Ruth Paxsnn. the secretary of the organi
zation, who Is to go to China In a short
time, where she will atsbllsh the work of
the association.
The reception, which was informal, was
tven In the auditorium of the Toung
Women's Christian association building
Mrs. W. P. Harford, the retiring president
of the board. In a speech to the members
of the association, expressed the pride of
the organization In sending Miss Paxson
to ths foreign field and wished her, on be
alf of tha association, bon voyage.
Rev. Dr. J. E. Jenkins gave a short talk
tn which he told of tha Importance of the
task Miss Paxson Is to perform and com
plimented Omaha and the association on
having Miss Paxson as a representative In
ths work.
Miss Paxson was called upon for a short
talk. Bhe told of her plana to represent
the Omaha Toung Women's Christian asso

will take me perhaps two years. I was
reading a few days ago about a mission
ary's trying to learn the language. In the
Chinese language there are many words
that sound almost exactly alike and have
widely different meanings. For Instance,
the Chinese words for wife and chicken
sound quite alike. The missionary asked
a Chinaman to go out and get a chicken
and after waiting more than half a day
ths oriental returned to Inform the mis
sionary that he had made a thorough can

missionary was astounded to learn that a

Chinese upon such a wholly different
errand than he Intended. Bo you see,"
said Miss Paxson, "that I will be required

Miss Paxson said she expects to train

How one man secured the best gifts of life by the
abandoning of those things which are commonly

splendid theme of Mr. Dixon's new novel.
It is a tale of the
