HALIFAX, Nov. 25.-By the fight of
Allen Mcleod of Melville to the United
States long series of forgeries has been
brought to light. He was apparently q
prosperous farmer and carried Oh large
produce business. He had many transsc-

that he swindled the Bank OF Nova Scotia

Merchants Bank P. E. 1. and wise versa.
The names alleged to be forged are those
of Malcolm, A. Mcleod, John Mcleod,
John g. Mcleod ana others. The parties
victimized include Hon. Neil Mcleod, ex-
encouragement, w. Norton & Co., Nc
Kinnon and McLear and others. On the
night of the forger's fight his heavily in

Our Relations With Canada.
From the Baltimore sun


The efforts of the Canadian commissioners
TO induce the administration TO improve the
commercial relations of Canada and the
United States by entering into reciprocity
arrangement are to be prejudiced, if possible,
in the eyes of the public, it is stated, by
message from the President to Congress pro-
posing retaliation for an alleged discrimi-
nation made by Canada against United States
vessels passing through the Welland aud st.
Lawrence canals. Another lingo movement
is to be inaugurated, the CHILEAN war message
and the bellicose Boring sea dispatch having
failed to fire the American voters heart.
This time the object, it seems, is not only to
twist the British lion tail, but also to distract
attention from the evil effect of the Mckinley
tariffupon our trade with Canada. That tariff
went upon the Misrepresentation that Canada
sent us agricultural products TO much
greater extent than we sent them to Canada.
1t assumed also that Canada sent us vast
amount of manufactures, while we sent her
but little. The statistics OF our trade with
Canada show the talSity of the pretenses on
which the law was urged. Our total Of im.
ports from Canada in the year ended June
SO, 1890, was $50, go, 2f2, of which am punt
81, 30, 272 consisted of manufactures aud
miscellaneous articles and SIS, 900, 900 con
sisted of raw products of the farm, forest aud
fisheries. Canada imported from the United
States in the same year $40 1880, 1898 worth OF
merchandise, of which So, 953, 1893 consisted
of manufactures aud SIG, 943, S95 consisted OF
raw products OF the farm, the forest aud the
fisheries. Canada was, in fact, one OF our
best customers as respects both agricultural
products and manufactures. But the Mchin
lev act was framed, it appears, to destroy our
commerce with Canada. Our duties on
Canadian products were put higher than Can
ada's duties on ours. As respects many
articles our duties were made prohibitve.
This was reciprocity with vengeance. We
are to go to great expense cultivating recip-
rocal trade relations with the far off and slow
going countries ofSouth and Central America,
but with Canada, our next. door neighbor, we
are to have no dealings. Canada offers us
reciprocity ON favorable terms, and MIR. Blaine,
it is said, lavors it, but the President,
seeing that it would give a fatal wound to the
Mckinley act, prohibits it. Canada proposes
free trade in raw products-of which we sold
her about AS much as we bought of her-equal
rights in the fisheries and use of waterways
and duties on manufactures not higher than
the duties on English manufactures. 1t is a
fair offer, and only laundering policy can
prevent its acceptance.
