"I admire the Oreat American Republic.-

ter friend and furnish an example of
srreat peoples living on either side of
an Invisible line In peace and amity.
Touching upon the opposition to rec
iprocity noted In industrial centera.
Mr Wilfrid declared that the manu
facturer oas. to say the least, short
sighted. If the manufacturer per
sisted In refusing to accede to the re
quest of the farmers for reciprocity and
should make their refusal effeotlve. he
said. It would not be at all surprising
if the farmers s'lould refute to bear the
burden of the protective tariff which
was fostering Canadian Industries.
The farmer might go even a step
further snd ssk for more drastic tariff
eftanges." said the Premier.
Tne irerater concluded his sddress
by referring to his career aa leader of
the Liberals and Prime Minuter. Ha !
declared that he made aa appeal to the

HIGH RATiNGKOT ASKED
COAST I.EAGCE DIRECTORS 8 AT
CLASS A IS ALL, RIGHT.
Important Business Not Transacted
at Special Meetlns; Because) of
Three Magnates' Absence.
SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. I. (Spe
cial.) The failure to have a full rep
resentation of all the clubs prevented
ths Coast League from transacting any
Important business at the special meet
ing; called tonight In thla city. -Happy
Hogan and Ed Maler. of Vernon, and
ex-Judge McCredle. of Portland, found
It Impossible to attend the meeting,
owing to pressing; business at home,
and only Henry Berry, of Loa Angeles,
Frank Ish. Cal Ewlng and Danny Long,
of San Francisco: Ed Walters, of Oak
land, and Charley Oraham. of Sacra
mento, were In attendance.
One of the most Important reaolutlons
adopted wss the determlnstlon of ths
Coast League to remain In the same
class as at present. In other words,
the Coast League doea not desire a
higher rating, but doea not want to be
classed lower than any other minor
league. The talk of the American As
sociation and Eastern League of get
ting a higher classification than Class
A was discussed and It was decided that
the Coast Leagne would not "atand"
for the move. The Coast League will
Insist on remaining on even footing
with the other Class A organisations.
A couple or changea were also made
la Coast League rules. It was decided
by vote that a club has a right to re
call a waiver after it has been asked
on a player. Previously a club had to
deliver a player once a waiver had
been asked. it waa decided to sus
pend that rule, which prevented a club
from using a player If he was not In
the lesgue before September 15. which
rule was adopted to do away with us
ing big league players after the sea
son In the East closed.
A resolution was adopted to nave a
committee of six. a director of every
club In the league, to act on the ached
ule at the annual meeting of the league,
the date of which will be named later.
No official action waa taken on the
manner in which the major leagues

TACOMA. Sept. II. In aa interview
tonight. Qovernor Oswald West, of
Oreston. who came to this city to at
tend the wedding of his niece tonight,
declsred two women and not a poem,
caused him to save Jesse P. Webb, tha
Oregon murderer who was reprieved on
the way to the gallows.
-It has been said I was moved to
reprieve Webb by reading Stanton's
poem. They Are Hanging; Bill Jones.
The truth Is. Webb's wife and daughter
kept on my trail until I felt like a dog.
But Tve felt right ever since, and that
shows I did the right thing. When I
saw those women In my office the
morning set for the hsngtng I knew
Webb should never swing.
-I didn't have any sympathy for
Webb.' said Governor West, "but his
wife and daughter kept on my trail
day and night and auch loyalty to the
man who had been good to them In his
sober moments, the man who waa their
husband and father, seemed to me to
demand some return. The morning of
tbe hanging they were In my office to
make a last plea, wet and ao forlorn. 1
told my aecretary to give the newspa
pers some resson why I reprieved
Webb. He did. But the real reaaon
waa because hla wife and daughter
asked for It. And Tve felt right ever
since. Before I reprieved Wm I used to
feel like a dog.
