Canning Fruit,

Many housekeepers are not success
full in canning fruit and frequently find
their jars running over or working" a
few weeks after being sealed and put
away. This may be due to several
causes, viz: Imperfect fruit, unsteriliz-
ed cans or tops that are imperfect and
not alright. When caused by the lat
ter it is easily remedied by melting
parafn or sealing wax and dipping the
top of each jar, after it is tightly screw
ed down, in the melted wax. After al
lowing it to cool and harden if any air
holes show, dip again.

of week in camp, 1856 happy, rollick-
ing cadets of the University of Idaho,

Immediately after the arrival of the
train, the cadets fell into line in splen-
did military form, and after a short
delay marched to Camp Lewiston on

The cadets were met at the depot
by a large delegation of Lewiston citi-
zens, and were heartily cheered as the
ranks were formed and the flag un-
furled.

lively commenced at once, and the

HARTMAN WILL
NOT RETRACT
Preparing Another Statement
Should President Come
Back Again

NEW YORK, April 3-The publica-
tion of the Hartman Webster and the
Roosevelt Sherman Hartman cores
pondence was widely discussed today
in financial and political circles.
The statement given out by Harri-
man was widely read. Hartman is
said today to be in consultation with
friends presumably with a view of
outlining a course should the presi-
dent make a rejoiner.
Not the least interesting of Harri-
mans presentation, is his statement
that he could not withdraw anything
he said in his letter to Webster. in
which he declared it was at the presi-
dents solicitation that he raised $780,
600 for use in the campaign in New
York in 1904. and that the president
agreed, 'ff necessary" to appoint
Depew ambassador to France.
1t was declared in banking circles
that light could be shown on the
question of campaign contributions ir
1904. If the books of the national re-
publican committee were thrown
open.
Harry S. New of Indiana is now act.
ing chairman of the committee.
Hartman Had Political Ambitions.
WASHINGTON, D. c., April 3.-Tht
following statement was given out a
the White House today:
The real reason for e. H. Harrl
mans interest in the election of
state ticket in 1904, reference to whicl
was made in communications whicl
passed between him and the president
was that he desired to advance hi
own ambitions.
TT is asserted that Hartman want
ed the position of senator now file
by Depew, and this was the reaso
why he was anxious to have him ap
pointed as ambassador to Paris.
"The inference from Harriman's at
titude was that If Depew could be in
duced to go to Paris, Governor Hig
gins was prepared to appoint Harri
man to fill the vacancy"
