swelling the refrain that sent It rever
berating through the rooms, corridors
and corners of the clubrooms. Hut tle
chorus was different from that which bas
made the rafters tingle on so many oc

of feminine voices that sounded clear
and overbalance- the antlered herd, it
was ladies- night at the Elks Club, the
only occasion of the season of 1910-11

on band at the door and hurried about
the club with reception badges flutter
ing from the lapels of their coats. The
women were received cordially and given
the hospitality of ESkdom. Tables were
scattered through all the rooms lor
cards and refreshments.
Between TOO and 800 attended and wo
men were In the majority. Special mu
sical numbers were given. Miss Lulu
Dabl Miller waa the principal soloist.
She sang. "My Heart Sings." "Three
Roses Red. "Love In Southland." "Ich
LJebe Dlcti." "My Hero" and 'The Elf
Man." Thomas Dobson waa her accom

Miss &-ssie Kciry sang -Hoses Bring

kind ever given by the ESkei and Its suc

ALARM IS SOUNDED
Upton Fears Canada May Be
Chicago's Backyard.
ANNEXATION CRY RAISED
Opponent of Reciprocity Quotes
Clark's Speech to Scare Canadian
Parliament Invasion by
Beef Trust Predicted.
OTTAWA. OnU Feb. 2S. "The best
years of my life were given to the work
of settling the Canadian Northwest, and
I cannot express my feelings at the pros
pect of seeing that country made the
backyard of Chicago, declared Clifford
Slfton, ex-Mlnlster of the Interior for
Canada In the Laurler government,
condemning; today the reciprocity
agreement and breaking away from
the Liberal party.
Because of the great Interest In the
speech, the floor and galleries of the
house were crowded.
"What is the reason being given by
the representatives of the United
8tateaT" asked Mr. Slfton. "for prof
ferrlng us the terms they doT I de
cline to entertain the suggestion that
Champ Clark, leader or the Democratic
party, waa not speaking seriously on
annexation.
Spread of Annexation Seen.
"If It had not been for Mr. Clark and
the Democratic party, this reciprocity
agreement never would have passed
the House of Representatives. It was
he who put It through. Let him apeak
for himself. He says he and his party
were in favor of this proposal, because
It leads to annexation. What did Mr.
Taft, leader of the Republican party,
sayT
"Canada ta a strong country. It has
a great, storehouse of natural re
sources. He says that It has been pur
suing a strong and successful policy
of development, but Is now at the part
ing of the ways. Therefore, he says,
before Canada Is Irrevocably fixed in
the policy, leading to the consolidation
of and strengthening of the British
empire, we must turn her from her
course."
Mr.. Slfton uttered a comprehensive
condemnation of the agreement. Among
the undesirable results which Mr. Slf
ton foresaw waa the destruction of the
Canadian meat-packing business by
the American combine, against which
Australia was taking action. Every
hoof in the Canadian Northwest would
be controlled from Chicago, he said.
Cheaper Wheat Predicted.
Instead of the price of Canadian
wheat being raised to the American
level, he said, the great Canadian sur
plus would lower the price of Amer
ican wheat to the Canadian level.
The pulp and paper provision In the
agreement. Mr. Slfton affirmed, was
an adroit bonus to the provinces to
abandon the regulations they had made
to prevent the exportation of pulp
wood.
Last Spring Canada was being men
aced by the United States with a club.
Now tliere was good feeling.
The defense of the Government was
made by Sydney Fisher, Minister of
Agriculture, who asserted that the out
look of Mr. Slfton and other critics. In
cluding some manufacturers, was nec
essarily constricted. The men who had
the broad outlook, he said, were the
men who had the specific Information.
These men were Messrs. Fielding and
Patterson, who bad negotiated the
agreement with the United Stntes after
having heard every Interest In Canada
on the subject.

SALEM. Or., Feb. J8. (Special.) Dr. R.

Free Trial Package.
The instant relief afforded poor over
burdened stomachs by the use of a
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet should be a
reason for constantly keeping a box
on hand at home and at the office as
well.
The .Stomach Welcomes Quick RaBet,
A Stuart's Tablet not only aids diges
tion but It actually does the digesting
itself. In other words it furnishes ex
actly the same elements for the diges
tion of food as the natural juices of
the stomach. The stomach, therefore.
Is not called upon to do any of the
work except to churn the juices fur
nished by the tablet and then push the
digested food along into the Intestines
where it will be still further digested
and tho strength taken up by the blood
to be carried to the muscles and nerves
of the body.
So by taking a Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablet after a meal you give the stom
ach the rest It needs In which to mend
Itself and grow well again. And you
absolutely prevent the souring of any
food, the formation or any poisonous
gases, belching, foul breath or consti
pation. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have done
mere for humanity and have caused
mere rejoicing than any other one
agency that can be named.
Every druggist everywhere sella and
personally recommends Stuart's Dys
