WASHINGTON, u. g. June Is
Senator Lafollette is now going after
the reciprocity bill To secure a few
benefits for the common people and
working classes as he calls them. The
bill as II now stands is additional pro-
lection for the large industries. and he
will commence trying to secure free
lumber
According to I.aFollette. the mdict-
ments against some fourteen officials
OF Lumber Associations i'm Chicago by
the federal grand jury. for refusing To
allow even retailers and wholesalers
to sell a stick of timber below stated
price, irrespective of supply and demand
is enough to warrant Canadian lumber
being shipped into the country free of
duty.
The people. according To- Senator La
Toilette. want protection in their dis
organized condition rather than the
lumber trusts and other combinations
OF capital with perfect organizations.
As the reciprocity bill now stands the
lumber trusts have a tax or duty on all
Canadian lumber shipped into the Uni
ted States, claiming the lumber indus
try needs protection from the large
virgin forests Of Canada. LaFollette
takes the stand they do not need any
protection but the people need the re-
storing OF competition in the lumber
business which has not existed for sew

JOHNSON RETRACTS
CRIME CONFESSION
TELLS MADISON SHERIFF THAT
ne DID NOT KILL LITTLE
ANNIE LEMBERGER.
FEAR CAUSE OF ADMISSION
while on Way TO Prison. johnson
Declared His innocence and Said
He Only Wanted to Escape Mob
Others Doubt His Guilt.

Madison never killed the girl
any more than you did. Z
such was the declaration of John
Johnson to Sheriff Brown, made
while on his way to Waupun to serve
life sentence for the confessed muir
der Of little Annie Lemberger.
ION the trip Johnson acted as
though in mortal fear until the party
had passed Columbus, said the sher-
ia Then he talked nationally and
without evidence of mental disturb
ance.
The prisoner told the sheriff that
he knew nothing of the murder or
disappearance of the girl until the
next morning when he went upon the
street.
Sheriff Brown said that he had as
surances from Johnson that as soon
as he could he would write letter
to Attorney Emerson Ely.
johnson acted perfectly rational, :"
said the sheriff. He told the sheriff
that he saw a mob attack man at
Darlington some twenty or twenty
five years ago and that it was some
thing terrible. He gave this as the
reason for being afraid that mob
would attack him.
There is widespread belief here
that Johnson may not have been the
murderer of little Annie Lemberger,
that his confession was the result of
his fear of an imaginary mob and
that he was rairoaded to prison for
life without adequate inquiry as to
the truth of his confession. So far
as the printed reports show there has
not been discovered any evidence to
corroborate this confession, while
there are some facts that tend 30 dis
credit it.
The fact that police officers have
again visited the scene of the tragedy
gives color to a belief that even they
are inclined to doubt the confession
and that the case is not yet closed.
1t is regarded as very strange that
a window could be broken, the little
girl dragged out, and that no one
heard any outcry
