South River. Oct. 20:-Joseph
R~aksanyi, of the firm of Raksanyi
e. Luithart, met with a severe acci-
dent yesterday morning. While
driving on Ferry street the harness
became loose from the shaft and this
frightened the horse, which ran at
a terrific speed. Because OF the
condition of the harness the driver
had no control of the animal, and the
wagon WAS crashed into a pole,
throwing Raksanyi to the ground and
injured his leg. He also sustained
several bruises about his head. Med
icaf attention was summoned and
the injured man was cared for and
taken home. He was getting along
fairly well today.

RECIPROCITY POPULAR IN
CANADA

Canadian farmers are fully awake to
the advantages to be derived by
them by the ratification Of the recip-
rocity treaty, which will give them
the entire United States for a mar
ket, free of duty.
On Saturday r. L. Borden, leader of
the Conservative party in Canada,
moved on. with his l~ieutenants, to
southern Alberta to continue the
campaign against reciprocity with the
United States. Here, as in Manitoba
and Saskatchewan, he found farmers
a unit for ratification Of the agree
ment.
His first stopping place was Mac
Leod, where he received a memorial
from the United Farmers of Alberta
in that district, representing the
unanimous feeling of forty-six
branches. They desired the obstruction
to the agreement on the part of Bor-
dem supporters in the Canadian par
Lament to cease. They favored recip-
rocity as a step toward free trade in
agricultural implements and machinery
with the United States, which is the
goal of their desires.
The memorial deprecated SO much
flag-waving on political platforms and
asked the speakers to discuss practi
cal issues.
Borden, however, in reply dissented
as strongly as possible from the farm
ers' views on reciprocity. The sober
second thought of Canada, he said, had
disapproved of the reciprocity agree
ment; there were people in Nova Sco-
tia and, he believed, elsewhere who
would cut off their hands rather than
vote for it. Reciprocity, he asserted,
would re-intrOduce into Canada the
products of American trusts.
Tate, member of parliament for the
district, told Borden that, although
eastern people might not agree with
their views, yet the people of Sas-
~katchewan and Alberta as a whole
were in favor OF reciprocity with the
United States. That was shown, he
said, by the fact that the S~askaktche-
wan and Alberta legislative assem-
blies and boards of trade were unani-
nous in their approval of the propos-
ed agreement.
Secretary Fream, of the Alberta
United Farmers, said no convincing
argument for the farmers to change
their opinions had been advanced "
Borden.
At Weyburn, Saskatchewan, Friday,
one speaker for the farmers, whose
opinion was cheered, said: "The farm
ers are prepared to take the west out
OF the confederation of provinces if
reciprocity is denied u.s."
Borden has retired his lieutenant, J.
q. Bergerson, who at Moose Jaw used
the illustration Of Samson and Deliah
in connection with President Taft and
Fielding during the course of his
argument.

VICTIM OF PLAYING
 INDIAN

New York, May 20.-Dr. William Osborne Mcdowell, president of the Journal of American History. prom inent worker for international peace and member of The Hague confer ence, is under the care of physi- clans today after a narrow escape from death by buckshot fired by a gang of Eastside boys playing ''In- iian." Mcdowell, passing a vacant lot where the boys were at play, was struck by two of the shot. One struck him behind the right ear, but was deflected by the skull bones. His physicians say that if the wound had been fraction of an inch higher the result would probably have been fa- tal
