WASHINGTON, Dec IA Congressman But
lRrworth, OF Ohio, is the first man TO officially
Nggest negotiations with Great Britain and
he Dominion Of Canada for the admission Of
canada into the Union. He introduced a
Soint resolution in the house yesterday to
that effect
The preamble TO the resolution recites that
the strained commercial relations between
the United States and Canada, as also the
geography Of the two countries, suggest the
impossihility Of a just and permanent settle
ment q the controversies pertaining to the
fisheries, boundaries and transcontinental
trade, except by blending of efforts and in
terests under one governmental system. and
point logically to the necessity and proba-
bility OF a unity and assimilation between
the two nations under one government.
1t also recites that the bonds OF sympathy
eesulting from ldnship race, language, ira
1dtion and substantial identity Of govern
mental systems, together with a community
81 interests based upon commerce and its
aids and agencies are Of such character that
G1ch union and assimilation is being dis
.assed and fayorably considered by tho citi-
zens Of both nations and il is believed that
its early consumnation would be OF great
advantage TO all the citizens and subjects of
the two countries provided the same can bo
attained in a manner consistent alike with
the honor and dignity Of the United States
and Great Britain and the Dominion of Can
ada The resolution in full is as follows:
Be It resolved by the senate and house of repre
sentatives Of the United States, in congress as
sembled, That The president be, and he Is hereby
authorized and empowered to invite negotiations
looking 90 the assimilation and unity Of the
people of the Dominion OF Canada and the United

sinilation TO be based on the admission Of the
several provinces of the Dominion or any one ~
them, into the union of states upon the same
terms and equality with the several states now
composing the Union. and the assumption bv tho
United States Of the Indebtedness of the Domin.
ion Of Canada or a just proportion thereof. and
such other equitable terms and conditions as
justice 70 the high contracting parties may de.
mand; and
Resolved further, That with a view To such
negotiation, the president invite the appointment
Of commissioners by the government OF Great
Britain and the Dominion Of Canada 10 consider
the wisdom and expediency Of settling and ad.
1usting all controversies and differences which
now exist between the two governments growing
out Of the fisheries, otherwise, by such a union
and assimilation is hercinbefore suggested
either as TO the whole OF any province or several
provinces Of said Dominion; such negotiations
