equivalent to vote

progressive nge
sentiment in regard 10

opposition to reciproc-
ity, as expressed in
the National legislative
meeting. nothing but
machine politics and it
does not affect in the
least the sentiment OF
the Maine Oranges re-
garding reciprocity with
Canada, which the
Progressives of Maine,
1 dare say, believe in
thoroughly. The
great section at our
doors opens to Maine
the most inviting field
for development or
trade and we should
not hesitate to take ad-
vantage of it by urg-
ing Congress to pass
the reciprocity treaty.
President Taft is right
when he says our trade

be gagged by custom

line will begin In a short time and
completed in seven months. We re-

would be if we had them running
now to move our bumper grape crop
This line when completed will be one
of the best paying ones in the United
States for the same distance. Il

Centerfielder Edward Reichle, draft
ed by Utica from Keokuk, refuses to
sign with, the eastern club until his
differences with the local team are
settled. According to word from
Utica, there is no written agreement
at hand to substantiate Reichle, and
d the matter awaits adjustment at the
hands of President Farrell OF that
league.
Reichle was drafted by Utica after
the close of last season, the regular
draft price of $500 being paid. During
the winter Reichle came to Keokuk
and filed a claim with the Keokuk di-
rectors for SIS, stating that he had
verbal agreement with ex-Manager
Frank Belt to the effect that he wac
to get one-fourth of the money obtain
ed either through his sale or draft.
The Keokuk directors had several
meetings at which the matter was
discussed, but as far as was known
here no settlement was made. 1t wat
