Simmons, in Raleigh for a few' days, says there was not the least bit of politics in his vote in the Lorimer case and he knows he was eternally right in his vote. He finds, too, that his course is being heartily endorsed by the people of the state who followed the investigation. He does see the big.gest sort of a political isst:e in the . Canadian reci procity issue and insists that the dem ocratic leaders must stand out against the Taft measure until there is such amendments as will admit flour as well | as wheat; beef as ■\vell as cattle, and other like imports free and preventing the manufacturing interests from get ting all the benefits of the reciprocity scheme. “!Men are so inconsistent!” exclaim ed Mrs. Flimgilt. “I suppose you are talking about your husband?” *‘Yes.
