willing to admit great many articles
free. or at the lowest possible tariff and
+ secure the necessary revenue. If goods
are admitted from England free into
Canada, that would not allow that they
shall be admitted to the United States
free. That is very different PROPOSE
ton, and the delegates to the conven-
ton should understand the difference.
for a great saving of unnecessary expla-
nation would be saved thereby.
Judge +. E. G. Bryant, of West Su-
periOr, says that he has thought great
deal of the subject to be considered by
the convention. His views are that the
wheat, barley, horses and farm products
of the Canadian dominion might be ad-
mitted free in exchange for the manu-
featured products of the United States.
He believes that the great advantage of
reciprocity is with the dominion. but
that some advantages may be at
tanned by the United States. In
case free trade should be advo-
Gated to an unlimited extent he would
feel that he ought to enter protest. He
favors the Hudson river deep canal
scheme and opposes the WelIand canal
scheme. He thinks that the United
States should have her own independ-
ent waterway to the ocean, even if it
should be more expensive than the Wei
land canal scheme, as it is more calcu-
lated to build up American commerce
and the country. Judge Bryant is a
cousin of the late noted poet William
Cullen Bryant, and is a well-informed
gentleman and an intense American.
j. w. Scott. eXmayor of West Supe-
rior, is in favor of the fullest freedom
OF trade and reciprocity in its widest
sense He would even go far enough
to make the two countries an unit. He
favorS the Wellahd canal, and declares
that the Hudson river route is delu-
sion and too remote to waste time upon.
He regards the Welland canal as expe-
dient and susceptible of easy and rapid
completion, and thinks it useless to
waste time Oh the Hudson river route
when considering the ShOrtneSS OF life
and the progress of the age.
E. q. Mills, an ex-representative of
the legislature of Wisconsin. from West
Superior, believes that reciprocity will
be chiefly beneficial with Canada. He
favors a limitation in the freedom of
trade and approves the Hudson river
canal system.
w. Perkins, of Winnipeg. is a court
stenographer and also connected with
the Free Press. He favor5 reciprocity
and the deep waterway scheme by way
of the proposed Welland canal.
Il. Cowan, of Winnipeg, is in favor of
a sweeping reciprocity. and promoting
the interests of the two countries as if
they were identical i'll aims and pur-
poses.
Thomas Dwyer, mayor of Everett,
WASH, is progressive man. who wants
to see the Northwest developed and
favors reciprocity and the shortest
route to the ocean. He is willing to
meet the Canadian more than half way.
and to take hold of the country and IN
ject into them the progressiveness of
the American and develop their agri-
culture and make the world greater and
{. broader in common brotherhood, and
at the same time be forced to pay trib-
ute in free exchange with Everett by
patroniZing the resources of the state of
Washington.
Sam Nichols, formerly of st. Paul,
but now of Everett, WASH, says that
reciprocity can't hurt the country, and
is in favor of general reciprocity as
being beneficial to the Northwest. He IS
in favor of a liberal policy of reciprocity
because it will be beneficial to the gen.
eral public in this country.
