EFFECT OF IMAGINATION.

Many years ago man condemned
to death was told by the king that If
he would occupy bed in which man
had died from the plague, and sur
vived the ordeal, his life would be
spared. He agreed, but although no
one had died in the bed, his expert
ence so worked upon his imagination
that he died. Better always be mat
ter-of-fact, and don't let your imag-
ination run away with you. Trust
your actual taste, and it will always
tell you that golden grain belt beers

CANNON ON FLOOR
EX-Speaker Attacks Canadian
Reciprocity Treaty.
Charges That 1t Was Drawn Up
in Secret.

Washington, April 19.-Former Speak
er Cannon, in the house today, vigor-
ously attacked Canadian reciprocity.
Aided by a large map of the
United States and Canada he played the
role of a schoolmaster to crowded
floor and filled galleries. His remarks
followed those of Representative Gud-
ger. Mr.. Cannon assailed the proposed
agreement as dangerous to American
trade, inimical to the best interests OF
American farmers and certain to re-
suit in depreciation of American farm
lands.
Not since the war with Spain AMI
all that followed it, has there been con-
sidered by the house so important d
bill as the one now pending" he de-
clared.
"On the action of the house rests the
wellbeing and the prosperity of all the
people of the United States. Is it prop
er on slight consideration to vitalize
into law an agreement that affects the
prosperity of every home in the land?
MI. Cannon declared that the
treaty had been made in secret. The
had actually nothing to do with the
preparation of the agreement with
Canada he said.
mo member of this house, de-
clared Mr.. Cannon, had opportunity
to know anything about it until the
house received notice in the presi-
dents message accompanied by the
bill itself that it was expected to pass
the measure
Mr.. Cannon review the developm ent
of middle and western America dur
ing the last century.
Il am not an old man. he said,
amid the laughter of the house, but
can remember when this country
had but seventeen million inhabitants.
Now it has close to a hundred mil
lion.''
immigration and DEVELOPMENT had
brought rich new lands into cultivation
he said; railroads had by cheap freight
rates placed them in touch with the
great eastern markets and the value
of New England and New York farm
lands had gone steadily down, unable
to meet the competition. The opening
of new Canadian lands with American
markets open to their produce. would
have today the same effect ON the west
he believed.
Mr.. Cannon declared that the infiu-
ence of the cheaper Canadian lands
would be felt as keenly in the south as
elsewhere If the tariff restrictions on
farm products We're removed. 'What
is this bill going to do to us?' he
asked. 'They say there's no danger
to our wheat from a market open to
Canada. The president says it will re-
duce the cost of living without i'm
pairing the farmers market. The
president is a great man; I have great
respect for him; I voted for him, and
apprehend I will vote for him again,
but L would like to see him demon
Strate how it will not impair the
farmers prices and yet Will reduce the

company of Kansas City. The state
charter board has granted nearing

forfeiture of the charter. The second

featured by this company was
specifically asked for. This is a viola
ton of the law and the charter board,
