RECIPROCITY WITH CANADA.
In Canada the issue is reciprocity
with the United States. The Liberal,
are fghtiug the Torie, and making the
campaign Oh that line. Al the Louis-
Vile Commercial Club banquet Tuesday
night Mr.. ErAsrUS WMAN, Of New
York. who is am enthusiast upon the
subject Of Canadian reciprocity. and IA,
given il much study as we'll as becom
ing very prominent through his publ,
speeches on. and agitation OF the ques
tioa, said the prospect % the Liberals
success is remarkably good Continuing
be said:
But the last formal expression Of Con
gress toward Canada Is that contained ir
the Mckinley oil. shutting out her pro
ducts bv prohibitory duties and snOrn oil
lis clauses which offered 20 Southern ma
tionalities reciprocal relation. Be
fore Congress now is recommendation
from the Committee on Foreign Affairs
iustructing the President 10 appoint CON

Canada for the purpose OF working OUT

is "A very simple ten line resolution. nut II
would be most effective in promoting pet
ter relations. IL would beget anatlOnal IN
vestication of the subject when Canada Is
ready. Its passage at this lunctCre would
make Canada ready, because 10 would help
20 elect the Liberal party, and do more "a

the Liberal party in Canada and aid il
in being victorious. Ii was further de-
cIared by Mr.. WINAN:

In Canada may be assured.
The Congress that passes ont OF exist

sins 20 answer for, and after committing
that worst OF sins, the passage OF the
Mckinley BIN. We have bur small hope
o.! it doing anything that will help recr
