Hold Up reciprocity. He says.


DALLAS. Tex, July A reader OF
the Dallas Dispatch writes: Call
upon the people OF Texas to write TO
their congressman and demand that
they not vote for Canadian reciprocity
unless Taft makes special request OF
the Canadian government for this wo-
mans pardon. I guess that would
make Taft sit up and take notice il
we threatened his little reciprocity
pet" His suggestion was printed and
many people took IL up.
For two weeks the Dispatch has
been swamped with pardon petitions.
The majority of the signers are among
the working classes.
The first installment was dispatched
by express to Earl Grey in a big box,
conspicuously labeled. The petitions
were pasted together in continuous
sheet $50 feet long, bearing 5000
names. Another week will see q
second sheet, even longer. Among
the signer2 was Edward c. Drew,
a native Of Canada, who also
telegraphed Earl Grey In part as
follows: Il claim Canada as my
home and am proud OF II, but
should this poor woman, Angelina
Napolitano. have to hang for defend
ing her honor by killing her brute or
