MUCH ACTIVITY IN THE MATTER
OF RECIPROCITY.
PREMIER ON THE FIRING LINE
Grounds Taken for and Against Re
ciprocity Coming From All Sec
tions bf Dominion.
Ottawa, Ont. Reports coming in
from all parts of Canada show the In
tensity of the election struggle, which
is now under full headway, and they
reflect also the position and progress
of the various elements on the main
issue, reciprocity between Canada and
the United States.
Although the campaign comes while
harvesting is at its height, conven
tions and political meetings are draw
ing audiences unparalleled for size. It
is conceded that a greater percentage
of votes will be polled than ever be
fore in Canada.
Reciprocity has continued the domi
nant issue since Premier Laurier and
Opposition Leader Borden made their
initial addresses. Since then Mr. Bor
den has remained in Ontario, speak
ing daily, while Premier Laurier. after
one Ontario meeting, has swung over
to the French-Canadian province of
Quebec, where he has been addressing
from one to two meetings each day,
including Sunday.
Meantime, the premiers of various
provinces and other leaders have been
ranging themselves on the firing line.
Premier Whitney of Ontario, Premier
McBride of British Columbia and Pre
mier Hazen of New Brunswick, have
taken the stump in opposition to rati
fication of reciprocity and in opposi
tion to the return of the Laurier can
didates. Clifford Sifton, formerly a
member of the Laurier ministry, is
holding meetings in Ontario, at
which he denounces the reciprocity
agreement and the government for
having made it
The grounds taken for and against
reciprocity are shown in the reports
coming from all sections. The fight
against reciprocity is made on both
economic and sentimental grounds by
the opposition speakers. They declare
that agriculture in the United States
is so much beettr developed than it
is in Canada that the Canadian farmer
will be swamped by the arrival of
food products from the United States.
The sentimental ground raised
against the return of the government
is based on the report of President
Taft. in which he said that Canada
had come to "the parting of the
ways." as justification for having
pushed the reciprocity agreement
through congress.
A BOY SHOUTS FIRE.
The Result of Which is that Twenty
five Are Dead.
Canonsburg, Pa. Twenty-six per
sons were suffocated or trampled to
death, twenty-five were seriously, in
jured and thirty were less severely
hurt Saturday night in the senseless
panic at a moving picture show iu the
Canonsburg opera house, according to
revised figures. How foolish the fatal
panic was developed more fully when
those involved returned to their sens
es enough to relate just what had
happened. It transpired that there
was no fire. The fatal rush for the
exit was due alone to baseless fear.
Hospital Corps Lacking.
Washington. The United States
army in case of war would be seri
ously hampered because of an in
adequate number of men in the hos
pital corps, according to Major Gen
eral Frederick D. Grant. In this
branch of service no progress has
been made, he says, ince the out
break of the Spanish war.
President Speaks in Kansas City.
Kansas City. Mo. President Taft
will address the National Conserva
tion congress in Kansas City on Sej
tember 25. This information was con
veyed in a telegram received at the
headquarters of the congress from
Henry Wallace, president.
Lawson Held for "Raffling."
Boston. Mass. Charged with vio
lation of the Massachusetts lottery
law by "raffling" off a horse and
phaeton at a county fair, nf which he
is chief officer. Thomas W. Lawson,
financier, was served with a summons
to appear A in the Plymouth county
court to answer the charge.
Cigarets Cause Suicide.
Chicago. HI. Forty empty cigaret
boxes were found near the body of
Gaylord Thomas, who committed sui
cide by shooting himself. A revolver
was found near the corpse. Thomas'
wife told the police that her husband
had been an inveterate smoker and
that this had unhinged his mind.
DISCHARGES ARE PURCHASED.
Reasons Which Prompt Soldiers
to
to Seek Release.
Washington Reasons which prompt
soldiers to seek release from the
United States army by purchase of
their discharge are inexplicable to
Major General Frederick D. Grant. He
commanded the Department of the
East during the last fiscal year, and
in a report to the War department
says that f.23 applications for dis
charge by purchase were acted upon
by his department during the year.
Congressman Latta's Condition.
Rochester, Minn. Considerable im
provement is noted in the condition
of Congressman Latta of Nebraska
and it is thought by Monday that the
change for the better will be marked
enough to almost insure his complete
recovery. He suffered less pain on
Sunday and rested quite well. While
another operation will be necessary
to make restoration complete, if he re
covers from the first ordeal, there
will be little cause to worry over the
second, as it is considered a minor
operation.

A WONDERFUL CHANGE.
Mrs. R. Cronse, Manchester, lewa,
ays: "For two years my bask, was
weak. Rheumatic pains -racked
lower limbs day and night. The
sages or the kidney
secretions were an
noylagly irregular.
When I started using
Doaa's Kldaey Pills,
these troubles sooa.
lessened and the dull
backache vanished.
My kidneys now act
normally and I give
Doan's Kidney PUls
credit for this wonderful change."

CHILD'S HEAD
A MASS OF HUMOR
MI think the Cutlcura remedies are
the best remedies for eczema I have
ever heard of. My mother had a child
who had a rash on Its head when it
was real young. Doctor called It baby
rash. He gave us medicine, but It did
no good. In a few days the head was
a solid mass, a running sore. It was
awful; the child cried continually. W
had to hold him and watch him to
keep him from scratching the sore.
His suffering was dreadful. At last
we remembered Cutlcura Remedies.
We got a dollar bottle of Cutlcura Re
Bolvent, a box of Cutlcura Ointment,
and a bar of Cutlcura Soap. We gave
the Resolvent as directed, washed the
head with the Cutlcura Soap, and ap
plied the Cutlcura Ointment. We had
not used half before the child's head
was clear and free from eczema, and
It has never come back again. His
head was healthy and he had a beau
tiful head of hair. I think the Cutl
cura Ointment very good for the hair.
It makes the hair grow and prevents
falling hair." (Signed) Mrs. Francis
Lund. Plain City, Utah. Sept. 19, 1910.
Although Cutlcura Soap and Oint
ment are sold everywhere, a sample
of each, with 32-page book, will be
mailed free on application to "Cutl
cura," Dept. 12 L. Boston.
Emerson's Story of Gratitude.
There is a beautiful little story In
Emerson's recently published "Jour
nals," of which his son, the editor.
Dr. Edward W. Emerson, said the poet
was very fond. '
A certain widow was so poor that
she eked out the one thin bed cover
ing by laying an old door over herself
and her little children.
"Mamma," one of the children said
one bitter night, "what do those poor
little children do who haven't got a
door to cover them?" Youth's Com
panion. Lively.
"Is this the kind of cheese that you
want?"
"Keep it still, so that I can look at
It."
