TAFT AT INDIANAPOLIS.
President Declares His Canadian
Agreement is Essentially the Blaine
and Mckinley Policy.

Indianapolis.-Pres Taft put
the parting touch on his part of the
celebration of this citys safe and sane
Fourth in speech on Canadian reci-
procity at the Marion club banquet
Tuesday night The president made
his answer to the argument of other
Republicans that reciprocity, as he has
proposed it, is not good Republican
doctrine, but Democratic doctrine.
He showed that reciprocity as pre-
sented to congress by him differed, If
at all, only slightly from reciprocity
as advocated by James G. Blaine, and
former President Mckinley. He de-
clared that the contention of oppo-
nents of his reciprocity plan that the
doctrine is un-republican because it
affects articles that are competitive
and not merely non-competitive arti-
eles, is not sound.

H. s. Matthews, now vice president and general manager of the Alabama Consol- dated company put before him the de- tails of the construction of The Birming- ham and Warrior River Railroad"
 This was a pet idea of MT. Matthews and practically the germ of the Lake Borgne canal business, now under con sideration.
 The proposition was simply to build a low grade railroad in connection with a barge line on the Warrior river be- tween Birmingham and Mobile.
 This proposed line included a portion of the Mary Lee railroad, in order to effect entrance to Birmingham without great expense, and to take in various of the industrial plants.
 All costs and estimates were carefully worked out by engineers, and the de- tailed statement presented to MT. Hoad- ley two years ago. Control of the Lake economical entrance to New Orleans. as developed later.
 The great plan Is no sudden born scheme, but has been carefully wrought out.
 Senator Shaw has purchased the rail- road in question, and. as just stated, the Shaw-Hoadley syndicate now owns the Lake Borgue canal. With such men, builders and promoters, back of the plan, important events are to be looked for in the Birmingham district within the next few months.

 An Early Beginning
 Before he was old enough to vote he was running a mine of his own in south ern California. Then he took contract to construct a big factory in Oakland. Cal, after which he branched out in all directions throughout the west; building power house plants. electric lights plants. plants for mills. breweries, hotels, saw mills, street railway companies, through out points in California, Oregon, Wash ington, Idaho, Texas, and even in Alaska. His energy then. as now, was tireless. Said friend of his: "He is built of live wires and steel springs"
 Before his thirteenth year he was on the road to being millionaire. and was known in a business way all over the west
 When he came to Chicago to built the 10, ,0O0-horsepower plant of the Chicago city railway. the first consolidated plant in the world. he was counted among the industrial captains of the United States. One big work followed another. Eastern companies engaged his services and iv was not long before he had the oppor- tunity to shape out some of his own big designs independently

As the Wild Geese Fly
From the Toronto Globe.

From the Toronto Globe.
 There can be no more impressive sight than a straining line of wild steady strokes. their rigid necks pointing steary strokes, their rigid necks pointing to their northern summer home, their outlines slowly diminishing until, as a row of floating dots. they vanish in the uncertain distance.
 As they scan the continent in their northward sweep the feeble efforts that dot it here and there with cities must seem to them helpless presumption. They call in the joy of their strength and the poor prisoners of gravitation fency that the resonant tones from the vast airy dome are a special message to their own little worlds. More im- rressive than this voice of the open day or the sight of the vigorous and steady forms coursing the air Is the sonorous mingling of cries in the starry dcme when the lofty way of travellers is concealed by the enshrouding night.

day In my opinion, the greatest me- chanical genius in America" From a Technical Viewpoint Comparatively few people know, for instance, that Joseph H. Hoadley is a mining engineer of marked ability, that he Is the inventor of more mechanical appliances than any other man in Amer ica, with the exception of Thomas A.
