WHY SILENCaY

New York Tribune
We regret to notice the silence of the
free trade press respecting the reciproc-
ity treaty with Germany and the nego-
tiations now practically concluded with
the British sugar islands. The subject
does not seem to interest them. OF
course, the advantages of these CONNER
cial arguments are so unmistakable that
we would not expect free trade editors
to argue, that either American exporting
interests or the foreign consumers, who
are to have cheaper food, will suffer
from the work of the State Department.
But they generally feel at liberty to as
sumo the constitutionality of the reci-
procity amendment, and to charge the
State Department with foul play on the
strength of strictly private and confiden-
tial information in their possession.
We cannot understand their self-re-
straint on this occasion.

TO BE EXPECTED.

Cleveland Leader.
As was naturally to be expected, the
great daily newspapers of London criti-
else with severity President Harrison's s
message. If he bad reiterated at every
few lines of his message 'the tariff is a
tax" interlarded his utterances with
such wisdom as unnecessary taxation
is unjust taxation" the English press
would have declared it the greatest of
American state papers, and showered
upon him as much laudation as they used
to bestow upon Jeff Davis. Well, Presi-
dent Harrison's message was not written
to please English editors or their Mug
wump and Democratic coadiutors on
this side of the Atlantic, and the fact
that it does not conform to their wishes
is sure sign that it thoroughly repre-
sents the best interest of their great
competitors in industry and commerce,
the American people.

RECIPROCITY WORKING WELL.

RECIPROCITY WORKING WELL.
Pittsburgh Dispatch.
The conclusion of reciprocity treaty
with the British West Indies is important
in itself, for the trade between them and
the United States amounted during the
past year to about thirty million dollars,
of which one-third were exports from
this country. The indirect results of
the treaty will not be less important.
Hitherto the tariff of the West Indies
favored Canada at the United States
expense, in regard to agricultural prod
ucts. Now in return for the free entry
of sugar and coffee grown in the British
West Indies into our ports these English
colonies have agreed to enlarge their
free lists and reduce the duties on the
leading agricultural and other products
of the United States to a large extent.
This means that our farmers and manu-
facturers will be able to compete with
the Canadians for the West Indian
market, and it is good news for Ameri-
cans generally.
Canadians can't be expected to view
the treaty with equanimity. They will
not see their monopoly of the West
Indian market smashed for our benefit
with complacency. When they think it
over the beauty of sticking to selfish
mother country will not be SO apparent.
Reflection may lead the Canadians to
banker after little of the same reci-
procity with their big neighbor. Perhaps
in this way the commercial union, if no
closer one, will come between this
country and Canada.
