The Dominion Press Already Urging o
Reduction of tie Canadian Tariff


OTTAWA, ONT, Nov. IL. The entire
dominion press is urging the Ottawa
government to prepare to meet the
Democratic tariff reform by reducing
the Canadian tariff 1t points out
that the dominion minister need not
look for any treaty Of reciprocity such
as was proposed to the Harrison admin
istration early in the present year.
1t is recalled that five years ago, when
Mr. Cleveland was President, a treaty
relating to the Atlantic fisheries was en-
tered into in modification of the treaty
Of ISIS, and at the threshold of the
negotiations Sir Charles Upper pro
posed on behalf of Canada that the
whole question of the commercial in
tercsts of the two countries should be
taken up and settlement made upon
the basis Of a broad reciprocity of free
trade.
Mr.. Bayard, then Secretary of State,
declined to entertain the proposal on
the ground that it was contrary to Dem
ocratic doctrine to usurp the control of
the tariff, which belonged to the House
Of Representatives. If Mr.. Cleveland
adops the same policy, all that can be
hoped for here is modification of tariffs
IN the interest Of freer commercial rela-
tons,

ment, but some Reasons are Given why
He VIII Accept No Otiice.

CHICAGO, Nov. IA local paper has
the following
William G. Whitney of New York
will be premier of President Clevcland's
second administration.
Benjamin I. Cable of Illinois will be
rendered the navy portfolio.
The foregoing statements are made on
the highest authority and come directly
from the President elect to u gentleman
now in Chicago and high in thc party's
councils.
WHITNEY WILL HAVE NO OFFICE.
A Washington dispatch says: "In-
formation comes here very direct, and
through reliable channel, that Mr.
Whitney will probably accept no Office
under the new administration. Mr.
Whitney prefers to be the heir to the
throne, and he believes that he can do Il
great deal more to promote his Presiden-
tial aspirations i'll private life than he
could in office.
History has shown that cabinet off.
GERS stand a very poor chance of be
coming Presidents. The SecretaryshIp
Of State would give Mr.. Whitney very
little opportunity to advance his inter
ests. The Secretaryship of the Treasury
would involve altogether too much
work, To be minister in London for
four years would remove him entirely
from the field of political manage
ment and it is there Whitney
is strong. Besides, the American
minister to England generally
gets the Irish vote down on him.
Nearly every one Of our ministers have
suffered from it. Mr.. Phelps realized u
fine piece of strategy on the British
government in the extradition treaty
negotiated in the interest Of Irish poll
ticians, but it was a matter that the gem
eral public could know little about,
| and the Irish antagonism prevented his
appointment rs chief justice of the
United States. Mr. Cleveland had de-
cided to appoint him and so told Sena-
tors on both sides of the chamber, and
the frantic appeals Of leading Demo-
Gratis not to make an appointment that
would ALLEVIATE the Irish vote NJ the last
moment dissuaded him.
| Mr. Whitney, il is said, has no notion
of exposing himself to any such posi-
ton, and he recognizes the fact that
even as Secretary Of State he would
have TO incur enmities and do some
things that would arouse opposition,
while in private life lie will BE hand.
