Over Progress Being Made
For Canadian Reciprocity
TO START NEW CAMPAIGN
Cabinet Ministers to Go Out Advocating
Proposed Agreement--Taft Feels
That Fight Has Been Won
in the House.

Washington, d. c., Feb. l3.--President
Taft arrived here this morning from his
trip to Columbus. Ohio, and Springfield
Ill. He was in high spirits and showed
no i'll effects from his trip, 1t is de-
clared that President Taft will push the
fight for Canadian reciprocity with re.
newed vigor. A number of important
conferences have been planned for this
week, particularly with reference to the
situation in the Senate. since he feels
that the House problem was solved with
the reporting Of the Mccall bill Satu-
day
In furtherance Of his campaign, Presi-
dent Taft will send several cabinet mem
bers out into the field Secretary Knox
is toepeak "Wednesday at Chicago. Sec
retary Nagel will speak next week at
Akron, Ohio. Secretary Wilson will
speak at Buffalo February %, and At
torney General Wickersham has several
speaking engagements this week. All
these cabinet officers will make reci-
procity their theme
The president is as sanguine that reci-
procity with Canada will prove sue
cess as he was that practical free trade
with the Philippines would do so, He
advocated radical tariff concessions to
the Philippines upon practically the
same grounds that he now is urging
reciprocity with Canada Free trade
with the Philippines, however, was Bit
terly fought and did not become a law
until little more year ago IT was
pointed out on the presidents train that
the ghosts of injured interests" raised
up against the Philippines proposition
soon vanished into thin air and that not
single interest was injured. On the
other hand the people Of the faraway
islands were distinctly benefited, the
trade between the United States and
the islands rapidly increased and the
American customs receipts during the
first year OF the new law showed a
distinct gain through the increased inn
portation of articles still dutiable or ar
ticles imported in excess Of the amount
admitted free.
At every station here the train
stopped yesterday great crowds were
gathered at the stations. The president
appeared on the rear platform at several
of the larger cities, but made no
speeches.

-ries in Concord, will be used, and it will
cover an area Of 1850 feet The build
ing operations have reached an interest
ing stage, as set forth in the st. Louis

flee. The work Of constructing the
wooden forms upon which the great con-
crete dome is to be molded in one solid
shell, are nearly completed, but it will
be several months before the dome,
which is by far the most difficult prob

to contend in the work of construction
will be completed and ready for the
stone, lantern, or cupola, which is to
surmomt it. to serve as an observatory
TO be in turn surmounted by huge
gold cross that will easily be seen from

within this huge dome, IT'S feet in dia-
meter, will be a second concrete DOME
forming the eoncave ceiling, which will
