East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1911-04-05

Washington, April 5.-The follow
ing message was sent to congress to-
day by President ~?ft:
sentatives:
| transmitted to the 61st congress
on January 26 the text OF a reciproc-
ity trade agreement which was ne
gotiatcd by my direction by the Sec
rotary OF state with representatives
of the dominion of Canada. 1t was
the contamination OF earnest efforts
extending over nearly a year on the
part OF both governments to effect
a trade arrangement. which. supple
menting as 1t did amlcable settlement
OF various questions of a diplomatic
and political character that had been
reached, would mutually promote
commerce and would strengthen
frindship existing. The agreement in
its intent and its terms was purely
economic and commercial. While
the general subject was under dis
cussion by the commissioners, I felt
assured that the sentiment OF the peo-
ple Of the L. 5. was such that they

would result In an increase Of trade
on both sides OF the boundary line
and would open UP a reserve of the
productive resources of Canada to the
great mass of our consumers on ad-
vantageous conditions and that
would at the same time offer broad
or outlet for the excess products of
our farms, and of many of our indus
tries.
Country Approves Plan.
Details regarding negotiations OF
this kind necessarily could not be
published, while the conferences were
pending. when. however, the full
text of the agreement with the ac-
companying correspondence and the
data explaining its purpose and scope
became known to the people through
a message | transmitted to congress,
It was Immediately apparent that the
fruits Of the careful labors of the
commissioners had met with wide
spread approval. This has been
strengthened by further consideration
OF the terms of the agreement in all
their prospects. The volume Of sup
port which developed shows that Its
broadly national scope Is fully appre-
clated and Is responsive to the pop
ular will.
Refers to Last Session.
The house of representatives of the
61st congress. after the full text OF
the arrangement. with details in re-
gard to its different provisions, had
been before II, as they were before
the American people, passed n bill
confirming the agreement as negotiat-
ed and transmitted to congress. This
measure failed of action by the SEN
ate,
In my transmitting message | fully
set forth the character of the agree
ment and emphasized its appro-
priateness and necessity as re-
sponse to the mutual needs OF the peo-
pie of the two countries as well as Its
common advantages. ! now lay that
message and reciprocal agreement, a:

ization; these were some of the things
which We're launched last night at one
of the most enthusiastic meetings of
the Pendleton Commercial associa-
ton ever held and it seems that at
last this city is to take her place
alongside Of other leading cities in
the northwest as a supporter of a
live boosting organization.
There was an unusually large at
tendance at the session last evening
because of the matters of importance
to come up and more was done to-
wards the arousing of the spirit of
concerted action than has been done
here for many moons 1t was evil
dent that the business men Of the
city are awake to the necessity of
maintaining a systematic boosting or
ganization and the plans laid out last
evening are calculated to secure such
an end

an end.
A Paid Secretary.

The matter of securing paid Sec
retary for the association was discuss
ed thoroughly and the unanimous
sentiment was heartily in favor OF
employing such a man. In fact, ne
gotiations have been under way for
some time towards this end and 1t
is expected that within two weeks
Pendleton will have a man in her
midst whose sole duty it will be to
exploit the resources of city and
county.

DIAz PREPARES TO
CRUSH REBELLION
MAKES BIG PURCHASE OF
CARTRIDGES AND BATTERIES
As a Result of Madero's Actions IL is
Expected Mexican President Will
Start War to End Revolution in
Northern Mexico.

Ell Paso, Texas, April 5.-As a re-
suit of the positive refusal of Madero
not to consider peace unless all de-
mands of revolutionists arc granted,
Diaz Is expected to start a was as an
determination against insurgents in
Northern Mexico.
Reports from Mexico City say Diaz
has bought twenty million OF Mauser
cartridges and ten batteries Of NOR
tars to prosecute his designs to crush
the rebellion An American close to
the Diaz administration said Diaz was
prepared to use blood and iron"
methods to smother opposition.

New Quarters.

The matter of securing new quar-
ters for the association was not
brought up last night for action be-
cause of the fact that the special COM
mittee of five appointed last Friday
to look into the matter is not yet
ready to report. However, at meet
ing of the board of managers follow
ing the general meeting, the matter
was brought up for discussion and
some action will probably be taken
Friday at the meeting of the mana
gers. The general sentiment is that
the present quarters are very made
quate and that new ones are badly
needed.
The climax of the meeting came
last evening when President Smythe
asked to rise all members who were
willing to take their coats off and as
sist in securing 100 new members by
ithe next monthly meeting. Every
man in the room Immediately arose
and a systematic campaign will be
begun at once for a greater CONNER

Talk of Peace Futile.

Madero's Camp, near Chihuahua,
Mexico. April 5.-A declaration that
all talk OF peace is futile so long as
President Diaz refuses to resign and
that the recent cabinet changes have
served only to convince the insurgents
Of their ultimate success, was made
by Francisco I. Madero. jr., the pro-
visional president, in an interview in
his camp yesterday.
The interview was an amplification
Of one which he gave to the press a
few days ago
In all Northern Mexico, he said.
the insurrecto movement was spread
ing until now the federal troops were
confined to the garfrison towns, "at
which the insurrectos were preparing
to strike a decisive blow"
Referring to his father and Gus
tavo, his brother, who were reported
to have initiated peace plans that the
minister of finance, Limantour. in
New York, the insurrectionary presi-
dent intimated they had no authority
to act for him and he would not ac-
cept proposals not addressed directly
either tG himself or to DR.. Gomez.
his confidential agent in the United
states.
Madero's camp was reached after
SO miles of travel. The building oc-
cupied by the leader and his staff is
an extensive stone and plaster palace
which he laughingl yreferred to as
his capitol"

Responding TO appears LOT as
sistance from the striking shop
men on the Illinois GENITAL and
the button workers at Muscatine,
Iowa, the Chicago Federation of
Labor yesterday gave 500 to the
latter, and planned for the imme
date contribution to the relief
fund of the former: -.
M. E. Murray, financial secre-
tary of the Burnside system fed
Grafton, asked the delegates to
make an appropriation for the
strikers, declaring that with
slight financial aid the shopmen
would be able to stay out against
the road, and force it to ask a set
Element. Many delegates took
part in the discussion, and the
sentiment was for immediate
action on the request of the shop
men. 1t was decided that quicker
action could be secured in raising
a larger amount by referring the
matter to the executive commit
tee, and this was done, with the
recommendation that the COM
mittee devise ways and means to
raise the money at the earliest
possible time.
Miss Catherine Finnegan, an
organizer of the Woinen's Trades
Union League, and in charge of
the button workers strike at
Muscatine, appealed to the fed
Grafton for funds to aid the strik-
ers, telling of the little children
who sew buttons on cardboard for
w cents gross, and saying they
had formed a union to help their

CONTENDS OVER BABY GIRL

With one-year- Dorothy Dis
mukeS as the prize, a contest, more
heated than usual because it involved
a family quarrel, was begun before
Judge Wilbur in the juvenile court
yesterday. 1t promises to take up the
time of several sessions before it is
ultimately adjusted.
The contest is between Samuel A
Dismukes of Downey and the parent
OF his late wife, Samuel M. Draper
and Nancy l.. Draper of Coachella
The latter now have the little one il
their home, from which deputy sher-
if returned yesterday with the re
port that she was i'll and could not be
brought to Los Angeles in response t(
the habeas corpus writ obtained by
the father.
The child's mother died Wednesday
at the home of her parents, where
according to their assertions, she had
lived many months uncared for by he
husband. They have placed on the
records a note written by the mother
shortly before her death. reading:
''If / don't i've to take care of my
baby she is my mothers"
Judge Wilbur made an order that
the child should remain with the ma
ternal grandparent until the case was
disposed of ana that Dismukes nigh
see her at all reasonable times. 10
