A Direct Primary Campaign.

AUGUSTA, April 81. Representatives
of the Maine State Grange, and Direct
Primary League and the Maine branch
of the American Federation of Labor,
at conference held here today, decided
to make vigorous campaign in behalf
of the Davies general direct primaries
bill, which the 18th legislature declined
to enact though it was initiated by the
people. 1t was also decided to formally
request Governor Plaisted to issue the
call for special election to be held on
September IL, 1911, that the people may
complete the enactment of the initiated
measure. The legislature enacted the
Pencil direct primaries bill, which ap-
plies only to candidates for governor and
representative to Congress and provides
for an advisory vote on candidates for
United States senator.

OUR HOME-MAKER.

Where the mountains slope in the westward
And their purple chalices hold
The new made wine of the sunset
Crimson and amber and gold
In this one wide-opened doorway,
With the elm-boughs overhead
The house all garnished behind her,
And the plentiful table spread
She has stood to welcome our coming,
Watching our upward climb,
In the sweet June weather that brought US,
Oh, many and many time!
Again is her doorway opened,
And the house is garnished and sweet;
But she silently waits for our coming,
And we enter with silent feet.
A little within she is waiting;
Not where she has met US before:
For over the pleasant Threshold
She is only to cross once more.
The smile on her face is quiet,
And lily is on her breast;
Her hands are folded together,
And the word on her lips is "rest.''
And yet it looks like welcome,
For her work is comprised and done;
All things are seemly and ready,
And her summer is just begun.
1t is we who may not cross over;
Only with song and prayer,
A little way into the glory
We may reach, as we leave her there.
But we cannot think of her idle;
She must be home-maker still,
God giveth that work to the angels
Who fttest the task fulfill.
And somewhere yet in the hilltops
OF the country that has no pain,
She will watch in her beautiful doorway
To bid us welcome again.
Mrs. A. D. T, Whitnev

PRESIDENT TAFT
Talks Reciprocity. Tells Newspaper Men
Why he Favors the Bill

Why he Favors the Bill.
NEW YORK, April 81. Reciprocity
with Canada must be adopted now or
never and must stand or fall by its own
terms. Amid tremendous applause, so
declared President Taft in an address at
the Waldorf Astoria tonight at the
fourth annual joint banquet of The AS
ISOLATED Press and the American News
paper Publishers Association.
His address was the first of series in
which he plans to evoke public sentiment
in support of his policies and he appealed
to the company of editors and newspaper
owners, gathered from the length and
the breadth of the land, to,impress in the
public mind that reciprocity should stand
alone and fought not to be affected in
any regard by other amendments to the
tariff law His recommendations were
warmly cheered.
All talk of annexation he character
lied as "bosh" and he said that the
United States has all it can attend to
with the territory it is now governing.
He praised the House of Representa-
tives for its passage of the agreement;
asserted that it would not injure the far
mer or any special class; touched briefly
on the matter of a general arbitration
with Great Britain, which, he said was
progressing, answered in detail the OBJ
jections that have been raised to reci-
procity and begged for at least "a kind
of test to dispel the ghosts exhibited
to brighten the agricultural classes"
Il have said that this was critical
time in the solution of the question of
reciprocity concluded the President.
1T is critical, because, unless it is now
decided favorably to reciprocity, it is eX-
ceedingly probable that no such oppor-
tunlty will ever again come to the United
States. The forces which are at work in
England and Canada viii derive an i'm
petus from the rejection OF this treaty;
and if we would have reciprocity with
all the advantages that | have described,
and that earnestly and sincerely believe
will follow its adoption, we must take it
now or give it up forever.
Other speakers of the evening were
Manuel De Zamacona, Mexican ambassa-
dor to the United States, who urged in
tellig mt and deliberate consideration of
the forces which have shaped the present
Instruction; Hon. William Baron Nor
thrup, Kings counsel and a member of
the Dominion Parliament, who paid trib-
ute to the power of the press, reminded
it of its responsibilities and analysed
Canadian sentiment with reference to
reciprocity; Nicholas Murray Butler,
president of the Columbia University
and j. F. Mackay, president of the Cana
dian Press Limited

more distinctly pastoral pleasure. Each
Sunday afternoon there came the duty
of sailing the sheep. With the owner
of the 400 acres, in his black clothes and
white shirt, but by that time Of day apt
to be collarless, the boy went to the
north, or was it the south, pasture where
the sheep were kept.
To that weird call, which sheep will
answer but cattle will not, the sheep
came running from all quarters and push
ed and scrambled for the salt. 1t puzzled
the boy then and it puzzles him now to
know how sheep can live without access
to water. But they can, or least did, Tor
there was no brook in that pasture and
they were never watered. The dew was
all they wanted, his mentor explained:
In its more or less primitive simplicity
that farm depended for most of its work
on oxen, and it was then that the boy
learned to drive them, and learned also
that the average OK of the New England
farm pays far more attention to the goad
or the whip than he does to word or
mouth. Say "Come here, haw," or
Gee Buck, gee Broad" as much as you
will; unless you accompany the call with
gesture of the goad, neither Buck nor
Broad is apt to bother. This of course
applies to the ordinary yoke, not to the
pair that were in training to be shown at
next falls fair.
This lesson the boy learned sharply one
day. In his pride he was driving yoke
of oxen to a two-wheeled hayrack and
ran one wheel over haycock.
Back 'em," said the man on the load,
bracing himself against his pitchfork.
The boy hit the nigh OK on the flank
and yelled "back!" The oxen started
forward in obedience to the goad, and
the surprised man on the load fell off.
Then he chased the boy from the meadow
and he can't remember that he has since
driven oxen.

PRESSING THE CHEESE.
The next step was the pressing. An
ld-fashloned hand-press, which somehow
seems oddly suggestive of an old wood
cut of the beginnings of printing, save
that the cheese curd was in round re-
ceptacle.
1t was when the cheese came out of
the press that it furnished its third thing
good to eat. That was the edge that was
trimmed off before the buttered cloth
was frightened about it and it was put
away to be turned daily and ripen for
months. After that it lost interest, for
the cheese that grown folks eat was
strong and disagreeable, but the edgings
of that day-old cheese still tasted of new
milk.
There were other features of life on
that survivor of the colonial farm that
had Vaccinations. Even then sheep were
less and less common, but this farm still
had them and still sent its wool to the
railway station some miles away. Shear
ing the boy never saw-that was done at
another season-but sacking the wool he
knew, for from shearing time to late
summer the wool had been kept in an up
stairs room in the extension that opened
out of the kitchen. The long sacks were
hung in the stairway and filled from this
room above, the contents being crowded
in by jumping in them.
That led to the rare delight of ride
on load of sacked wool to the railroad.
just why any one should care to ride in a
blazing sun stretched on a load of ex-
tremely smelly wool is not easy to UNDER
stand, but boys do-at least one boy did.
But sheep growing had a finer and

DIGNITY OF PUBLIC OFFICE
Debate by New York Law makers.

For the benefit of the large num- Der of students of parliamentary practice, senatorial procedure and all the dignified details of lawmaking as conducted in this state, we have collected from various reports of the recent debate in the state senate over the highway bill the following gloss ary of words useful in orderly dis cussion: Snake, hyena, swine, bull, squealer, welcher, liar, thief, hog, mug, swill, flipAap.
 For the purposes of accuracy 1t should be noted that the "hog" was "blind," the bull "red-eyed" and that "black perfdy" was honored by distinguished mention. Nor should there be the slightest suggestion of any partisan or geographical su- periority in vocabulary. Saratoga and the Bowery divided the honors.
 Such debates as this permit pa- triotic people to behold in its proper setting the true and inherent dignity which public office bestows upon all those who, even for the briefest time, occupy it-New York Sun.

SWINDLERS USE OLD TRICK
Tenderloin Character Pays $500 for Six GIitterlng Pieces of
 Glass.

Two smooth swindlers, who posed as thieves, but were really patrons of Market street dealer in cheap jew elry, have fleeced a number of Ten derloin characters of large sums of money in the last two weeks through applying modern methods to an old trick. One of their victims, William Snyder, proprietor of resort in North Ninth street, has appealed to the police for the arrest of the men, in hopes of recovering the $500 they got from him for six pieces of glass, which he mistook for diamonds.
 At the suggestion of the swindlers Snyder took two of the diamonds to 8 pawnbroker, who offered to lend him $350 upon them. Snyder has, tened back to where the swindlers were waiting and said that he would buy the six for $500. But one of the rogues, pretending to suspect that Snyder had carried information to the police, snatched the two stones from his hand and moved as though determined to depart.
 Snyder, fearing to lose the chance to buy the diamonds, hastily bor- rowed $500 and gave it to the strangers. In return, they handed him six glittering pieces of glass. It was not long after their departure that Snyder discovered that he had been swindled.-Philadelphia North American.
