Ministry FOR political reasons could ho' aioi
TO hc placed in the attitude of nog.ccHnS RcH-
prociy negotiations.
What the people of Canada really want Is adj
mission f, all the commercial advantages OF
membership in tho American tnlon whlc re-
tanning their political connection with the 'h'co
Kingdom. They are convinced that II tney could
have Unrestricted trade with the nitcd state
thov would share at once in the full measure OF
American prosperity. \ customs union would
unqucstionably be great gain for Canada, bu
nothing short Of political union would over tcnc
TO equalize the fortunes Of the na..onN on each
side of the border. Canada had Reciprocity fol
a long term of yeas upon most generous terms
but while its t1adc was most fayolably affected
it could not prevent steady emigration move
ment from its own soil to the United States, MOI
could it rival the greater country in industrial
progress. Nothing could he more flaciouS than
the Dominion theory that commercial union will
confer all the practical business advantages OF
political union. Ontario "a, an American state
would be As rich and prosperous as Ohio Tho
Maritime Provinces if admitted into the Amer
can Union would double their population and
resources in a decade. Commercial union would
be most helpful to these Provinces, whose natu-
raj markets lie directly across the border, but
politcal union would transform their fortunes.
That the Canadian Commissioners have moi
hoped to negotiate an unrestricted convention OF
Reciprocity is evident from the instructions which
they have received but they we're probably aim
ing to offer some kind of bargain, and il they
failed to get anything they could n least return t.
their constituents after making Il brave show OF
promoting the business interests of Canada. What
concessions the Administration was prepared tc
grant the public is not informed hut it is not
probable that President Harrison would discuss
the repeal of the Tariff Act 50 far aS ii relates
to Canada, and that is apparently what the Of
tawa Commissioners were demanding. II might
not have been impracticlblc to work ont an cqra-
ton in scmc classes Of exchanges. The abro-
CATION of the coal duties, fer example, might be
feasible for the market which the Pennsylvania
and Ohio mines would gain across the lakes III
On;ari, would compensate them for any adyan-
tagcs acquired by Nova Scotia in New-England.
Reciprocity with Canada i, however, very
different thing from commercial union with
tropical America and Germany. 1t is Reel
procity between portions of the same zone, and
all the main advantages Of the bargain lie with
tho less populous district which coyctS the com
mc:cal privileges of the greatest market in the
world. Tho Commissioners were not sent to
Washington for any practical purpose but only
u make a political demonstration. They have
gone back to Ottawa after beating the air.

CANADIAN TONS

The Canadian Commissioners boldly went TO
Washington with instructions to offer Rcd
procity on what are considered at Ottawa equ-
table conditions. 1t is not probable that the
Dominion Ministers had even a remote idea that
the terms proposed by them would be accept
cd. 1t was necessary for them to make some
attempt to reopen the negotiations, since their
political prestige at home would be impaired by
inaction. The business interests Of the Domin-
ion are suffering from exclusion from the Amer-
can market. All attempts to repair losses caused
by the a6iogation OF the last Reciprocity Con-
venticn have been futile. Last year commits
sioners were sent to the British West Indies 70
secure a monopoly Of that market for Canadian
agricultural produce lumber coal and fish but
the ovcrtures were rejected, and series Of Reel
pioci,y conventions was concluded with the
United States. steamship lines have been
heavily subsidized on both oceans, and strenuous
efforts have been made to open new foreign
markets for Canada but the results have not
been satisfactory. Canada's natural market is
the United States, and no other base of foreign
trade can be compared with it. The Dominion

Gals of Trenton. In defiance of positive tele-

returned here two Italians whom they supposed
to be suffering from typhus fever. The Italians
arrived at late hour, and were left in the most
summary manner on the steps of DR.. Edson's
Office. Fortunately, they were not victims Of
typhus otherwise a large number of persons
would have been exposed TO the contagion by
their journey on a railway train and ferry
boat. There is no way probably of calling
