passenger agent of the Denver & Rio
Grande, who is In charge of tha Colorado
exhibits. "As to the matter of results, I
look for a greater return from the Omaha
show than from any of the others that I
have attended. Dig land shorts were given
in Pittsburg. Chicago and St. I.ouls. and,
while the attendance was great, they did
not draw the class of visitors that we
have been getting' here. In these larger
shows many came as sightseers and were
not especially interested In the exhibits,
but those who attended the Omaha show
were largely persons who are seeking
homesteads In the west and northwest.
They are' the people we Btrive to interest.
The Colorado delegation cannot say too
much of praise of the management of the
Omaha Land Show,"
Montana la Happ.
"Our commercial clubs at Great Falls
and Helena sent us here with a double
mission," said Ham W. Teagarden.
"First, that we might get Into touch
with the younger generations of farmers
and demonstrate to them that Montana's
cheap lands, with their proven capacity to
give high yields of the grain and forages,
gave them their opportunity to get a start
as actual home-owners, with a certain
livelihood and Independence later on to
come from a moderate investment of capi
tal and the application of Intelligent In
dustry. "etecond. to call the attention of the
younger men of the cities and towns to
the fact that opportunity awaits them In
Montana to engage in industry and mer
chandising. Lobs capital is required In our
new towns than here, where the Individual
Inlutlve In buslnesa Is becoming more and
more restricted by the big concerns.
"From the number of Inquries we have
had from both classes, we feel that our
work will be productive of splendid re
sults. We have done much to remove the
erroneous Impression that Montana has
been held back In Its development by for
bidding conditions of weather, etc., for
the truth Is that we have had Infinitely
mora resources than people to develop
them, attractive and healthful as our cli
mate unquestionably Is.
."The Bee may say for Montana that wa
have been accorded every opportunity to
forward our purposes In coming to the
Western Land Products exhibit; that we
feel our mission has been a success, and
that wa ahali so report to our people."

"Ten persons are producing tha food
and raw materials of the farm for a
thousand In the cities," said 8. Arlon
Lewis In an address at the Land show
yesterday afternoon. Mr. Lewis' lecture
la entitled "Back to the Land." Ha set
forth a review of the conditions In the
congested centers of population and the
opportunities offered to the poor of the
cities on the broad acres of the west.
"W ahould make some provision, for
the proper location of the immigrant,"
aald Mr. Lewis. 'The government ought
to be able to ask the man landing on our
shores where he Intends to go and what
ha Intends to do. Tho problems that arise
where tha foreigners are crowded to
gether In the cities would not develop In
the western fields. The Mafia can exist
in the Italian quarter of New York, but
It cannot exist out on the Nebraska farm.
On the farm wa can assimilate these for
eign peoples, In the city they assimilate
us."
Mr. Lewis, has a project for the spread
ing of farm gospel among the prospective
Immigrants abroad. Ha would Invade
Europe with a corps of lecturers armed
with atereoptlcon views showing the ac
tual conditions which they can expect to
meet.

The exhibitors at the Land show from
the towns of Cody, Basin, Thermopolts
and Sherlc'an. Wyo.. before leaving for
their homes lust evening expressed their
gratification at their participation In the
show and are very enthusiastic over the
Interest that has been aroused In those

to Omaha and are full of Omaha. Nebraxka

Wyoming, and Just now similar capital is
being Invested In the Big Horn bas'n. Just
across the Big Horn mountains from Sher

Vwunst (Iea to Wnshlnaton.
Senator Lafayette Tounst started for
Wa.'hlngton tonight, where he will go for
the special purpose of aiding others In op
posing the bill which has bepn proposed,
looking to the reciprocity arrangement with
Canada. He declared before going that he
will fisht the measure In the Interest of
the western people. He may not return to
take part In the senatorial election.
Conaliis Hill Xpeak.
Kobert G. Cousins of Tipton today notified
tha Dolllver memorial committee of the
general assembly that he accepted their
invitation to deliver the memorial address
on the life and character of the late Sena
tor Dolllver. The services will be held in
the house chamber some time early In
March.
la Ferrets Opposed.
The house has passed by a vote of 8.1 to
18 the Fulton bill to abolish tha law au
thorizing the employment of tax ferrets.
There was Introduced In the house a bill
to apply the Wisconsin preferential pri
mary law to the senatorial elections in
Iowa. It was sent to the elections com
mittee, w hich is considering the . various
bills that have been Introduced looking to
a special primary to advise the legislators
on the vote for senator.
For Death of Wife.
Senator Clarkson has started to pass his
bill defining the measure of damages for
loss of a wife In an accident, but objec
tion was raised by Saunders to Its con
sideration, and It was made a special
order for next Thursday. The bill pro
vides specifically for a measure of dam
ages not to exceed 15,000 for death of a
wife, something not now provided in the
Iowa code.
The senate passed Saunders' bill to re
quire In water works condemnation cases
that notice must be given to Junior lien
holders before such condemnation may be
legal. This applies especially to the case
In Council Bluffs pending. In the courts.
The senate also passed A legalizing act
relative to Centervllle school district.
New bills Introduced In the senate:
By' Proudfoot. giving the parole board
right to review cases Involving life sen
tence. ,
By Allen of Pocahontas, authorizing In
crease In pay of secretary of department
ut agriculture.
By Hunter, permitting free passes to be
given mail carriers.
By Htuckslager, amending the coll -eral
Inheritance tax law.
By Balkema, raiMng pay of county audi
tors on graduated scale.
By Francis, permitting jail sentence for
forgery.
By L.innan, to authorize normal course
work In the high schools.
By Whitney, to enlarge the list of of
fenses 1n which Immunity may be granted
a witness.
By Fraioy. providing for sanitary condi
tions in restaurants and bakeries.
Corporation Klitht to Be Warm.
The Indications now are that the fight
over various bills In the legislature affect
ing corporation Interests will be exciting.
The senate Judiciary committee lias set
February 9 for a big public hearing In
regard to various bills looking toward reg
ulation of the public service corporations.
It Is evident that the representatives of
the cities snd of the corporations will
clash seriously, the former favoring one
bill and the latter another. The proposal
to establish a public service commission
will be bitterly opposed by the representa
tives of the cities and towns.
May Hals Salary of Secretary.
The salary of the secretary of the state
department of agriculture Is the subject
of a bill pending in each house. It la pro
posed that the legislature authorize the
department to fix tha aalary without any
restrictions and it Is argued that only In
this way can tho department be safe In
securing a good man. Secretary Simpson
has returned from St. Paul, where he yes
terday took charge of the state fair.
Wattia for Contestant.
The contest committee In regard to a
contest for a place in the house from
Lyon county is waiting fon the coming of
Mr. Boomgarden of Kock Rapids, who
claims the seat of Representative Olsen,
democrat. As soon as he comes an effort
will be made to have the two men fix up
the matter in some way satisfactory to
both, as the count showed a tie vote. If
they can adjust the matter tha committee
will be spared much embarrassment
RECIPROCITY IS

against the free fish provisions of the
agreement.
Mr. McCall declined to declare himself,
but made no aceret of nls approval of
the plan for reciprocal arrangements be
tween the two countries.
Several members of the committee whose
positions have also been In doubt have in
dicated the fact that the waya and means
committee will under no circumstances fall
to report the bill promptly and have given
Intimation that tha report Is likely to be
favorable to the treaty.
The McCall bill, after Indicating the
dutlea that are to be levied upon Canadian
products, provides these shall become ef
fective as soon aa the president ascertains
and Issues a proclamation showing that
Canada la levying similar duties against
American products. The free Importation of
certain articles Is to become operative as
soon a sthe president becomes satisfied that
Canada Is making similar concessions to
the Ignited States.
The senate was not In session today and
there were few members of that body at
the capltol. It was Impossible to learn I
If there had been any change In the open '
hostility with which tha measure waa re
ceived on Thursday.
Aim of President Taft.
WASHINGTON, Jan. (Special Tele
gram.) If the Canadian reciprocity ar
rangement is ratified by congress and the
Canadian Parliament works out aa well
In practice as the admlniat ration believes
It will, alml'ar arrangemenia will be made
with 'Mexico and other Central and South
American countries.
This la the firm belief of men who are
la a position to know what Is In the mind
It Anifr-
vln.
Air. i an e ultimate im li i aiea
lean lolvetetn. or tariff union, which will
UK- In all tha countries of North and
south .vmrti.a.
The encouragement of closer financial
relations with the Central and Sou t It
""""'n cinmncj. as innicaieu in me
recent Honduran triaty. is In line Willi
this policy. So is the encouragement of
'meiican Investments in that section of
the world.
It Is felt we are not getting our shaie
cf the Central and South American tmde,
and Mr. Taft is ambitious that his admin
istration shall place us in firat pnition In
thai line. I'nder the Impetus of mtst fa
it table reciprocity arrangements, aided by
the fact that the Panama canal will place
lis In closer and more direct touch with
the west coast and better banking facili
ties, he bel.eies we can get the prire. And
that Is a prize worth striving for. The
foreign trade, of 1-ailn America is more
than IJ.OOO.cuo.tmo. nearly two-thirds Ihe
foreign trade of the't'nlted States. Of
this we now get only about one-fitirth.
President Is Hopeful.
The president Is very hopeful that con
gress will lose no time In making effective
the arrangement with Canada.
Senators and representatives are quoted
as saying that the agreement cannot pos-
if the president and his mml trusted ail
ably be enacted Into law at this session ment. waa forced by the supreme council
of congress, but these declarations appar- to show her hand. To that end she pre
ently have no effect on Mr. Taft. He ' ferred charges against Mm. Manchester,
is looking for action before adjournment 1 nd witnesses were called before the coun-
on March 4. and while he has not au
thorized such an announcement, the sug
gestion Is made that if the agreement falls
at this time, congress mty be called In
special session early In March. If the
president should call the lawmakers In
session In March, It would be up to the
democrats to begin work on a revision bill.
They would subordinate the Canadian
agreement as such, but would probably
feel constrained to Incorporate Its pro
visions. In part at least, In their relvsion
bill.
The Canadian agreement Is popular with
the democrats. Practically all the mem-
hers In the party In the house Indorse
It. Most of the democratic senators ap
prove the agreement, although Senator
Bailey has announced that he does not
like it because of the provision placing
cattle on the free list. Senator Bailey
will probably lead the opposition In the
senate.
Some Proteata Are Made.
Very strong protests were heard from re- I
publican members representing northwest
ern interests of an agricultural nature, such
as those of North and South Dakota and
states farther west. The feeling of the
group Is that the treaty is intended to,
or at all eevnta does, trench very seriously
upon the barley, flax and cereal interests
of the northwest, and that these are prac
tically sacrificed In order to get conces
sions from Canada that .would be pleasing
to Interests which have been causing
trouble to the administration. Very much
the same state of mind exists among the
lumber Interests. As for the New England
Interests, they are Intensely stirred up
over the proposal to allow the mutual free
admission of fresh and salt fish.
A serious feature of the situation is that
a considerable number of Insurgent re
publicans, who have been clamoring for
reciprocity, are now taking the view that
they don't want reciprocity of this kind,
and will not ovte for it. This seems to
be frue of the northwestern members par
ticularly, and several were today ridiculed
or rebuked by other members because of
their change of front.
Aa Viewed In England.
LONDON, Jan. 2R (Special Cablegram.)
British experts In International politics be
lieve that In the Washington-Ottawa reci
procity negotiations Mr. Taft has won, not
only a distinct triumph In a field where
he has desired to excel, hut also a larger
advantage In tha general relations between
the United States and Its northern neigh
bor. Congratulations are extended to Messrs.
Bryce and to Mr. Knox as the "president's
far-seeing adviser."
It Is assumed that so far as the Ameri
can congreas la concerned, the strictly limi
ted arrangement will be ratified by legisla
tion without much ado.
Less confidence Is felt aa to the reception
Canadians will give tha proposals after full
consideration. It Is worth noting that the
doubt Is most pronounced In the circles
of tariff reform propaganda, where there
is a tendency to deplore any colonial dis
position to assert the principles of reci
procity. Chamberlalnltes would prefer a Canadian
movement calculated to exploint fiscal pre
ference and closer connection between the
Dominion and the United Kingdom. Several
papers published despatches from Toronto
and other points alleging that outside of
organised farmers, no special enthusiasm
Is displayed over Mr. Fielding's announce
ment of a "moderate reduction" of duties
and that tha Canadian conservatives re
gard the schema "cooly, if not coldly."
Blewa of Conservative Press.
On tha other hand, It Is predicted that,
aa Sir Wilfred Laurier Is seeking a cam
paign cry against the conservations he will
go to the country soon "brandishing the
text of the agreement and asking for the
farmer vote."
The conservative press Is taking' tha
most doleful view of the agreement. The
Telegraph hints at the approaching union
of Canada and America.
The Times Is doubtful of the endorse
ment of the agreement by the American
congress.
The liberal press takes a cheerful view,
believing that the agreement portends a
closer union between American and Great
Britain and the letter's conversion Nto free
trade.
The Pall Mall Gazette today says:
"Is It for the ultimate benefit of Canada
that its resources should be thrown open
to exploitation by southern trusts; that Its
career should be deflected Into the walks
of a mere producer of raw materials?"
Sir William Mackenzie, the Canadian
railroad man says:
"I am dead against any such agreement,
being convinced that such ties are antago
nistic to the best Interests of the dominion.
Canada la prosperous enough at the
present time. Its handa ought not to be
lied.

The rerent unpleasantness which Inter- I
rupted the quietness of the supreme grove ;
of the Woodmen circle, tha women's ;
auxiliary of tha Woodmen of the World. Is ;
In a fair way to be cleared tip within the '
next week. Mrs Emma B. Manchester, j
supreme guardian of the circle, has proven j
herself equal to the occasion, and has been '
Slven a rlenn hill hv the nr ..n.,n..u '
which has been going Into the affairs of
the organization for ten days.
Whatever may have been the origin of
the trouble, it Is apparent that no scandal
attaches to the difficulty and that differ
ences of opinion have been the principal
causes of dissension. Mrs. Elizabeth Sears.
supreme clerk of the circle, and about
I whose authority as regards department
management there has been a disagree
ell by both sides. The council listened to
the charges and promptly dismissed them,
clearing Mrs. Manchester of every shadow
of suspicion. In fact, these charges were
taken at all times with a grain of salt
by those who were in a position to know
of them.
t'sie Cones I p Monday.
i ne case before the district court will
come up Monday, at which time It la prob
able the entire matter will be dismissed
and sent back, to the supreme council for
settlement. Circle politics has been very
lirely recently, but the trouble Is sp-
parently about at an end.' It Is not un-I
likely, however. It is stated, that Mrs.
Sears will be called upon to "square" her- j
self for bringing unsubstantiated charges j
against the supreme guardian. I
Few women have made a auccess of
business life such as has Mrs. Manches-
ter. Nine years ago w hen she undertok j
the management of the Woodmen Circle j
that Institution was 40.000 In debt. oT- j
day It has a reserve fund of nearly two 1
million dollars and the membership had
grown from 11,000 to 95.000, a showing
the equal of which no fraternal organ-
Ization lias before made. Mrs. Manches- I
ter Is highly esteemed by all connected
with the organization, and has always I
had the respect of the great army of i
bureau and department workers who have !
assisted her In building up the Circle. !
Few women have been able to conduct j
an Institution with the quiet dignity j
which features the supreme guardian's
management. Surrounded by a council of
brilliant women, she has ever had the
confidence of her associates, and for the
few unpleasant spota which have marred
the progress of the Circle there have
been a thousand brilliant achievements.
The dignity with which the recent mis
understanding has been, adjudicated in
dicates what a brilliant organization of
women with a strong leader can do.
While at times those who opposed Mrs.
Manchester attempted to create Internal
dissension, their efforts have been far
from successful. A remarkable Instance
where her fine personality has shown It
self was when her character was assailed
during the recent Investigation. She
quietly invited . a full Investigation,
turned over everything to the supreme
council, not hesitating; even to give them
access to her own private correspondence
relating to business affairs purely per
sonal to her. A prominent bank cashier
was called to the stand to confirm sev
eral of her transactions snd the council
found that they had been carried out in
the clean-cut manner which could result
only from a straightforward conduct of
business. It took the council but a short
time to discover these facts, so the
charges fell flat.
For the benefit of Omaha it la sug
gested that It would be a very fine bit
of Juggling by which some Influence of
this nature might stop the construction
of a $1,000,000 structure In Omaha.

LINCOLN. Jan. 28. ( Special. ) Senator
Banning came back from the Inspection

of anything that happened on the trip,
but because of the aotlon of hla colleagues
during hla absence. Senator Banning la
Interested In the senatorial fight on rais

is of the opinion that this Is one and he
la chairman of tha oommlttea on employes
and resents Interference. So when Au
ditor Barton refused to recognize the sal

officials he shouted bravo and is now de

the generosity of Bartos to evade tha
