RECIPROCITY IS
SIDETRACKED
Is In Precarious Position In Senate
Fight Against Measure Was
Conducted Quietly but Effectively
liy Standpatters.
WASHINGTON, June t. That the
reciprocity measure Is In .1 nrecnr
ioiiH poMlllan In the senate, Is nil
inlttcd even nt the While House. Prnc-
tlcnlly tho same Interests and tne
Bnmo methods that became famous
through onvlni; tho seat of Larimer,
arc- factors In the fight against re
ciprocity. Tho lumber Interests, for
Instance, aro anxious to have reci
procity defeated, and tho gigantic
paper trust Is equally hostile to tho
measure.
It has only boon within tho last day
or two that President Taft has reall
ed how serious Is tho position of re
ciprocity. Two weeks ago. and even
bb lato ns a week ago, reciprocity ap
peared to have a safe majority In
tho senate. The fight against the
monsuro was carried on very quietly.
just ns the fight to save Doss Lorl
mer was conducted. Suddenly It de
veloped that the powerful Interests
which still control the senate had ap
parently secured enough pledges to
defeat reciprocity.
Tho Lorlmcr tactics contemplate a
long delay during which time the
finance committee will ostensibly pro
ceed with Its investigation. Then,
when tho opposition sees that It has
the votes to criiBh tho treaty, they
will allow It to come to a vote.
Senators Stone of Missouri and
Williams of Mississippi, both demo
cratlc members o fthe finance couv
mlttee, aro working earnestly to save
reciprocity, nut they are finding It
uphill work In tho committee, which
is dominated by tho reactionaries.

company in what U regarded in many
quarters as the first .-top in an
other gigniilie railway merger by
which Hill will seen re control of tin
Northern Pacific and Hurling! on sys
tems. Hill in an interview today denied
that he was planning such a merger,
which he twice before attempted to
carry out.
"I am getting old and will quit tho
game Mon," he said. "1 want to
leave the road in good shape finuu
eially, so that necessary improve
ments and extensions ean be made.
There is no mystery about it."
Hill ridiculed the story that the
Great Northern was to absorb the
Burlington and that it would soon
out loose from the joint control ol
the Hurlington road with the North
ern Pacific.
He also denied Hint he was plan
ning to extend the Great Northern
into California.
In explaining the reasons for the
tremendous mortgage, Hill said that
since the inception of the (Irent
Northern, that more $400,000,000
from the earnings of the road hud
been used in construction work and
extensions. It was planned, he de
clared, to .spend .?270.000,000 for im
provements in the next oO years. n
eidentally Hill expressed his faith in
the future of the country.
"The country is all right."' he said.
"It's the people. They are lazy. It
would be better for the country if
many of them were in their graves.".

The Modern Wash-day
Time was when The Wash was a weekly
nightmare, wash-day dinner a by-word.
The New Perfection Oil Cook-stove has
changed all that. Once the wash-boiler is
on the stove, it leaves you free to attend to
the dinner or any other work.
You can move a New Perfection where you please and
light it in a moment. It requires no attention after that.
A single gallon of oil lasts all three burners seven hours or
more. No coal or wood to carry ; no fire to feed ; no soot
nor ashes. It keeps a kitchen or laundry cool and clean.
It cooks to perfection, with the least trouble and expense.
