CANADA IS READY
FOR RECIPROCITY
Prime Minister Laurier Will Not At
ten cornation of King George V,
if Canada Needs Him.

Ottawa, Ont, April 29.-The deter
mination of the Canadian government
to ratify reciprocity was emphasized
in parliament Friday by Prime Min
lister Sir Milfrid Laurier, who declar-
ed he would not go to England and
represent Canada at the imperial con-
ference or to the coronation of King
George in June, but would remain
here to press the agreement if the op-
position persisted in obstructing it's
ratification. The matter was brought
before parliament by Opposition Lead
er Borden, who asked Sir Wilfrid
what his intentions were in regard to
London.
Il deem it my duty to attend" said
Sir Wilfrid, land have engaged my
passage six weeks ago, but have come
to the conclusion that should my pres
ence be required in Canada, and there
is every indication that it will be, it
will be my duty to forego the privilege
to attend the conference. My first duty
is to Canada"
Mr.. Borden suggested that parlia-
ment could rise for two months to
allow the prime minister to go to Lon
don. Sir Wilfrid made no reply, but
it is generally accepted here that he
will not go to England, and that the
fight over reciprocity will be prolong-
ed and marked with bitterness.

HOUSE PASSES BILL FOR
ADDITIONAL MEMBERS

Washington, d. c., April 2S-A bill
providing for the enlargement of the
national house of representatives from
391 to 433 members, and the appor-
tionment of these members to the diff
ferent states on the basis of the popu-
lation shown by the recent federal
census, passed the house early Thurs
day evening after vain efforts of men,
bers of both political parties to amend
it in important particulars
The proposed size of the house is
identical with that provided for in
the Crumpaeker bill, passed by the
house at the last session of congress,
but not acted upon by the senate. The
Houston bill, passed today, leaves to
the legislatures of the different states
the power to rearrange the congress

states, on the new population basis of
one member for each Oil ,S77 of inhab-
itants.
posed today and defeated after long
debate, were to put the redistricting
power in the hands of the governors
of states when the legislature had
failed to act; and to limit the house
in the future to a membership of 4S0
or 493, leaving future reapportion-
ments to the secretary of the depart
ment of commerce and labor
Each amendment was vigorously
championed by the regulars and had
some democratic support Mr. Sher-
ley of Kentucky first offered the
"Crumpacker amendment" as it was
known, to restrict the size of the
house to 430 in the future; and later
Mr. Crumpacker submitted it again
as a part of a formal motion to re-
commit the bill to the committee on
census to have the amendment put
into it. On a record vote on this mo-
ton the democrats voted it down, IT'S
to 80.
The amendment offered earlier by
Mr.. Crumpacqer, formerly the repub-
lican chairman of the committee on
census, which has charge of the re-
apportionment subject, to give the
governors of states power to carry out
the rearrangement of congressional
district. was declared by Mr. Hamlin
of Missouri, democrat, to be a delib-
crate effort of republican politicians
of Missouri to give the republican gov
ernor of that state power to make up
the new districts, so that republican
districts might be constructed by
gerrymandering methods"
AS Hamlin said that with the Crum-
packer amendment as a part of the
bin, the republican governor of Mis-
souri, could veto the reapportionment
made by the democratic legislature and
could then carry out the reapportion-
ment himself. Mr.. Barthold, republi-
can, also from Missouri, challenged this
statement and asserted that the last
democratic legislature that reappoint-
ed the congressional districts of Mis-
souri, had violated the federal statutes

effect Of destroying competition from
those who were financially unable to
advance the enormous sum necessary
to acquire this equipment. This ma
chine is capable, according to repre-
sentations of it's manufacturers, of
converting butter and skinned milk
into a rich cream of sufficient volume
to stand up without the addition of any
gelatin or vegetable filters of powders.
1t is claimed for this machine that
powdered and condensed milk could
be converted into a rich cream by the
addition of water Thus it was within
the power of those who owned these
machines to acquire old butter and
refuse, or skinned milk from dairy S

would produce an ice cream accept

skinned milk cannot be properly call

1.-TWO of the largest ice cream pro
ducers in Oklahoma recently equipped
their plants with these machines, and
enabled one of them to convince GER
tain local authorities that his ice
cream, being free from gelatin or other

of the homogenizer. We do not charge
that the owners of these machines are
using them contrary to law, but we
assert that the possibilities of such
use has justified the recent action OF
the federal authorities who have just
outlawed practice made possible by
this invention.
THE state food and drug commits
sion will, therefore, refuse to recog
nize the skinned milk and butter
product of the homogenizer and will
rigidly enforce the provisions of the
new standard just adopted. We have
placed the per centage of butter fat
required at o per cent, although many
of the states of the union require IA
per cent. Our reason for doing this
is to guarantee to the public an ice
cream of wholesome character, with
in the purchasing power of all. Ice
cream is one of the most essential food
products on the market. Its use as a
food product in cases of illness is in
creasing. To ice cream many of our
poorer people turn during the heated

from that union are illegitimate.
How is it in Rome? There should
not be any illegitimate births there in
the city of the Holy Father, the
Pope, but the figures show that three
fourths of the children born in that
holy city are illegitimate, while in
Protestant England it is only about
four out of one hundred. AS there
are SO many little fellows there who
do not know their Pop, they change
the name a little and call it Father
Pope ana then add little more to
it and call him "Holy Father Pope.
And the name comes on down to the
Priest who is called Father, yet
the Priests are never allowed to
marry. The Nuns also take the VOW
to consecrate themselves to the holy
Church and to never marry. They
are called Mothers. The King of
Spain closed up the Nunneries and
Monasteries in that country, and it
is very reasonable to suppose that
they were immoral institutions, or
to say the least, secret places of
Wickedness carried on in the name of
the Roman Catholic Church If they
were institutions for good they would
grow in grace and goodness instead
OF being shut out. The good people
all over the world would welcome
them instead of abhorlng them.
