AMENDMENT FAILS
Attempt to Change ReCi-
prOCity Defeated.
VOTE WAS Not TAKEN
Steps Looking Toward Fixing q
Date For Voting on Pact and
Other Tariff Measures Taken
in the Senate.

Washington, June 27.-The Cana
dian reciprocity bill emerged from its
first ordeal in the senate unscathed.
The Root amendment, proposing
modification OF the wood pulp and
print paper section OF the agreement,
was defeated after seven hours OF de-
bate, by an overwhelming vote. The
friends OF the amendment were 50
satisfied Of It's defeat that a roll call
on the vote was not demanded.
This leaves the reciprocity measure
open TO the general fight that Is to FOL
low for amendment Of important pro-
visions Of the Payne tariff law. Sena-
tor LaFollette announced in q speech
opposing the Root amendment that he
would give the senate chance to pass
on general tariff amendments for free
paper, free lumber and lumber pro
ducts, and for reductions In many 9TH
er schedules. Senator Clapp also an
nounced his intention OF Offering a
free paper amendment later. and other
senators gave evidence OF their pur'
pose TO force. from now on, consider
alton OF tariff revision on the widest
plane.
Steps were taken looking toward the
fixing OF a date for voting upon the
reciprocity and other tariff measures.
An agreement was drawn up by Chair
man Penrose, OF the finance commit
tee. and submitted to a number Oh
senators on both sides Of the cham
Der.
This agreement proposed that
vote should be taken by immediate
consent on the Canadian reciprocity
bill on July "a. on the farmers free
list on the following day and on the
Underwood wool bill on July 26.
There was considerable interest
manifested on the floor when Senator
Penrose produced this document. He
took It to the vice president and the
two retired to the rear OF the senate
chamber and began summoning sena'
tors TO take a look at It.
Senator Martin. Of Virginia, the MI
norlty leader, was called In, but was
not very much disposed to acquiesce
in II. other Democratic leaders, in
cluding Senator Williams. Of Mlssis-
sippi. we're consulted. Senator Smooe,
OF Utah: Senator Root and Senator
Sutherland had a look at the docu-
ment. Senator Penrose felt rather
cheerful when the senate adjourned
and said he would probably submit the
agreement to the senate and ask Tor
unanimous consent that 1t be made
the standing order Of business.
The progressive Republicans when
they learned OF the agreement were
somewhat startled. They held hurried
conferences, and the indications are
that even II the Democrats acqulesce
in the agreement number of the pro-
gressive senators will stand out
against II. In such a contingency the
agreement will fail.

RUSSELL COUNTY EXCITED OVER
REPUBLICAN TREASURERS ACTS

Russell county is simmering with ex-
citement because Of an alleged attempt
of the Republican treasurer to disfran-
chise about 800 voters Of that county.
The reported action Of the Republican
ring is being repudiated by some of the
leading Republicans Of that section.
The Democrats will begin within the
next few days action to seek redress in
the courts. Just what form it will take
is as yet unknown, but it will doubtless
be a mandamus compelling the treas
urer to accept the money Of voters
offered in time and TO certify the names
of the voters to the county clerk and
have their names placed on the voting
list for this fall.
There are said to be about so Repub-
ican voters caught in the Republican
treasurer's delay or refusal to list the
voters, while there are about 75O Dem
ocrats 80 held tp.
Lawyers have been engaged and are
now in consultation. The Republican
treasurer of Smythe county was come
time ago removed from office for tam
pering with the voting list and it is
possible the same course may follow an
investigation in Russell county.
