SPRINGFIELD.' 111.. Feb. ll.-Senator
Bailey, of Danville, made public today
a letter directed to him by Speaker Can
non. In which the Speaker strongly op
poses reciprocily with Canada. -
The Speaker s followers in the benate
and House, according to the Senator, will
put up a hard tlvht on tlic floor when
i me anacilan recinrociiy resolution i
unrirti im wren.
Following Is the text of Cannon's let
ter:
"It Is reported In Washington that you
are about to consider In the legislature
at Springfield a resolution indorsing the
commercial agreement with Canada which
is now ppnilng before Congress.
"That proposed agreement provides
substantially for free trade between Can
aila and the United 8tates in agricul
tural products. In addition, it Includes
wheat, barley, corn, potatoes, dairy prod
ucts, eggs, poultry, cattle, hogs and other
animals on the hoof.
Theory and Ynct Dlsanree.
"Of course free trade In these prod
uch Is by Itself one-elded, because we
give Canada an Immense market for
farm products both In theory and ln fact
while she affords us practically no mar
ke for farm products ln fact, whatever
may be the theory.
"If there can be any advantage given
ua which will compensate for tlie burden
of competition thus placed on our farm
era. we should be able to And It in the
terms.
"I have not found It so far, and I
note that tne Canadian envoy, Mr. Field
ing, explains to the mother country that,
while Canada is gaining a large market
in the trnlted States, the t'nlted States
la not to gain enough market in Canada
to Interfere . with KngllFh trado, since
few reductions are made on our products
that would seek a Canadian market.
and tl:ese reductions are small.
I note also one conspicuous dlscrimi
nation. Food animals on the hoof, such
as our farmers have to sell, come Into
this country free, but on the meats man
ufactured I hereof, there is levied a duty
of one-half cent a pound.
Protection Denied Farmers.
'I have no time to enter Into com
plete analysis of the agreement, but I
send you under separate cover a copy
of the President's message containing
the proposed agreement and schedules.
Th agreement, to me. and to many
others, seems substantially to den' pro
tection to all agricultural products.
treating them aa raw material, and to
accord protection to all who use such
products In. whole or In part as a basis
for some manufacturing purpose.
'My object In writing la to say that.
If any action la made to secure aid for
this agreement while It Is pending be
fore the Congress, It ought to be done
after only a most careful examination.
ICepitblU-aiis Don't Agree.
"There Is a marked difference of
opinion among Republicans In the
House and Senate touching the wisdom
and the Justice of the proposed agree
ment as a whole.
"The Democrats III the House have
held a caucus In regard to the matte
and have resolved to support the agree
ment on the ground that, while it 13
not all they desire to accomplish. It Is
a long atep In the direction of free
trade.
"That Is not. as I understand, the
position that the Republican party set
forth In its platform and outlined In
Its policies, and. for one. I cannot
agree with the Democratic caucus."
Employers Hpsolve to Kntcr State,
National and City Politics.
The Employers' Association of Oregon
decided last night to take active part in
municipal, state and National politics, in
the interests of announced policies of
the association. It was the annual meet
ing of the association anil the ha'.l was.
comfortably filled. The following resolu
tion wa adopted:
"That It Is the unfliiiinous sense of this
meeting that the Kmployers" Association
of Oregon hereafter take active Interest
In politics on the 'open shop' basis, be
lieving that tills action is necessary for
the promotion of Its interests and those
of the Stato of Oregon."
President M. C. Banrield presided: M.

progress to follow the extremists or
the John Brown and Wendell Phillips
type. These two men rendered at times
good service. But if Lincoln had fol
lowed In their steps the result would
have been death to the Nation.
'We must not he misled by mere
names. As compared with Buchanan
and Fllmore. Lincoln was a radical and
an extreme progressive. As compared
with John Brown and Wendell Phillips
he was a sane conservative and he was
right ln both positions.
Klex-t Senators Directly.
"One of the progressive policies upon
which I think th great majority of
progressives are agreed Is that t'nlted
Stales Senator? should be elected by
popular vote. The Constitution should,
in my judgment, be so amended as to
provide for this.
'The insistence upon the election of
Senators In some way which shall not
permit the people to pass directly upon
them Is merely a relic of the same feel
ing which made the founders of the
Constitution entrust the election of the
President to the electoral college In
stead of to direct popular vote. The
same fears of the neople expressed now
by those who are against choice of Sen
ators by popular vote were expressed
a century and a quarter ago by the good
and wise men who erroneously felt it
was not safe to entrust the election of
the President to direct popular vote.
"A comparatively short experience con
vinced the Nation that the President
should be voted for directly by the peo
ple. And although the form of an elec
toral college had been retained, the
actual fact is that the vote for Presi
dent Is a direct vote, the electors having
no functions except formally to ratify
the popular decree and If it were pos
sible even this slight function could with
advantage be abolished.
None of the evils prophesied have re
sulted from the change ln the case of the
President, and the same thing, 1 am per
fectly sure, will happen when the change
Is made as regards Senators. But the
United States should under no circum
stances surrender one particle of the
control It now has as regards the elec
tion of Senators.
1 feel that we are to be congratu
lated as a Nation upon the likelihood
of obtaining a closer reciprocity of
tariff and trade relations with Canada
Among all the powers of the earth
there Is none with which we should de
sire to be upon more Intimate footing
of equal rights, to which we should be
more closely bound In relations of mu
tual helpfulness, esteem and good will
than In the case of our great neighbor
to the north, whose prosperity and
growth should- be a matter of pride to
all who dwell on the American contl
nent. I welcome the proposed reci
procity treaty as marking a signal ad
vance In bringing about the closest and
most friendly relations between the two
countries."

term of the Superior Court of this
county has been postponed by Judge
McMaster. A law making the day fol
lowing a legal holiday also a holiday
waa passed and became effective yes
terday by the Washington Legislature.
The Superior Court's February term
was called to begin yesterday and
jurors were summoned to be here at

the holiday observed, legally no court

As the term had been postponed once

ELMS AGAINST K ECI PJIOCITY
Orcpon Man Says Lumber and Grain
Interests Arc Injured.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, Feb. 11. Representative Ellis
today voted against the bill ratifying
the Canadian reciprocity agreement, on
the ground that tiie agreement would
operate to the detriment of several Ore
gon Industries,-notably lumber, grain
and salmon.
Not only, lie says,' would Canadian
products enter Into competition with
Oregon products In the West, but much
of Oregon's trade In the East that Is
shipped by sea would be destroyed by
Canadian competition, as the products
of British Columbia could be sent to
New York and other Eastern ports ln
foreign bottoms and at less rates than
are charged by American ships now
engaged ln the coastwise trade and
which handle all Oregon products going
by sea to Eastern markets.
Ellis has received muny petitions and
telegrams from Oregon urging him to
act as he did. and he feels he Is Justi
fied ln opposing the agreement.
Hawley probably will Join Ellis ln
voting against the McCall bill when it
comes before the House, for be is par
ticularly opposed to the lumber and
wood pulp features of the agreement.

D.. archbishop of Philadelphia and one
pf the reat Archbishops on the Ameri
can continent, died at 4:0S o'clock this
afternoon, at the archlepiscopal rcs1
dence ln Logan Square.
For weeks the archbishop, who would
have been years old had he lived
until February 20, fought off death, but
a weak heart, enfeebled by the arduous
duties of his office, could not stand the
strain, and he passed away breathing
the benediction. "God bless you" upon
those who stood about the bedside.
The four attending physicians an
nounced at' 3 o'clock that the end was
not far off.
About this time the stricken prelate
roused himself and murmured the dy
ing words of St. Paul:
"I wish to be dissolved and be with
Christ."
An hour later the final struggle came
and messengers hurried to summon
priests from the nearby cathedral.
