Washington.-By . vote Of S. to -
the reciprocal trade agreement b.
tween United States and Canada en-.
bodied In the reciprocity bill that

A majority Of Republicans voted
against it. OF 53 votes for 1t. 80 were
Democrats and 21 Republicans; of the
81 against. "a were Republicans and 3
Democrats.
This action settled the whole Ca
madam reciprocity question 10 far a.
Congress is concerned, and save for
executive approval and the Canadian
parliament's ratification. virtually
made the pact the law Of the land.
Congressional practice will delay the
affixing Of the Presidents signature.
The bill. having originated In the
House. must be returned there for
engrossment and for the signature OF
Speaker Clark while the House 10 sit
ting.
The Canadian parliament has not
yet acted on the agreement and with
one exception, the provisions of the
bill as passed by Congress, will not
become effective until the President
issue q proclamation that Canada has
ratified the pact.
The exception to this procedure Is
in the paper and pulp section Of the
bill. which 1t ID announced will become
Immediately effective when the Presi-
dent signs the law.
An analysis Of the vote showed that
twenty four Republicans voted against
the bill and twenty-one in favor of it,
while three Democrats voted against
and thirty.two in favor of it.
Il am very much gratified and de-
lighted that the bill passed." said Pres
ident Taft. "It indicates the increase
Of ltually beneficial relations be-
tween Canada and this country"

cially among the Democrats. and
suggestion for a caucus was made.
Nothing is settled, but the indica.

A FRIDAY RUNAWAY

Friday, the 18th, proved a most un-
lucky day for Mr.. J. F. Luffman, a
well known farmer, who resides near
this city. He was on his way to
town just before noon, and when near
the Baptist church the shafts of his
wagon broke and his mule became
frightened and ran away. Mr.. Luff-
man was thrown out of the wagon,
and his foot caught in the reins, and
he was dragged for quite a distance
before he could extricate himself He
was badly bruised and shaken up,
but luckily escaped serious injury.
The wagon was quite badly broken,
and four dozen eggs, that he was
bringing to town to a customer, were
smashed.
