highest degree to promote that freedom OF inter-
course and good nelshoorhood which are the best
securities against national prejudice and the strong
est barrier against hostile collisions.
Resolved That while we do not expect the one
Government to depart from its fixed policy OF impos-
ing duties upon impoations for revenue we believe
that many articles OF commerce may be made free to
both countries on the northern frontier without
materially affecting the revenue OF either and at the
same time the labor and expense OF distant and
circuitous transportation, and exempt our citizens
from an indefinite amount OF personal annoyanees,
and remedy all the evils Of a contraband trade:
Resolved That in the opinion OF this Board, tho list
OF articles to be made free should be such that tho
average value OF q number OF years OF those going
from tue States to Canada, should DO as near As pos
sibe equal to those coming from canada 20 the
States during the same PERIOD and that would NOS
