RLAINE.s REcIpRocITY rRRATY.

The new republican tariff law con
rasns reciprocity clause. and 1t is
m the lines advocated by James c.
Blaine.
1t differs materially from the reci-
procfty clause as embodied in the Nc
KinBey law.
That clause was a negative. or re
saliaaory proposition. 1t threatened ne
saliation upon those countries which
refused to enter into reciprocal re-
lations with the United States.
This was not Mr.. Blaine's sugges-
tiOn; he favored an affirmative pnpo-
sstim.
Mr.. Blaine's proposition was like this:
To declare the ports Of the United
States free to all the products Of any
nation on the American hemisphere
upon which no export duties are i'm
posed whenever and so long as such
nation shall admit TO its ports, free
Of all national. municipal. provincial
and other taxes, our -four. cornmeaI
and other breadstuffs, preserved meats,
fish, vegetables and fruits. cottonseed
oil and its products, rice and other
provisions, including all articles Of
wood, agricultural implements and ma
ehinery. structural steel and iron. steel
rails, locomotives and railway cars and
supplies. street cars and refined petro-
leum.
This. it is believed. will increase ex-
ports to even a greater extent than
under the Mckinley law.
The good work of the reciprocity
clause in the Mckinley law was not
realized until it was repealed by a
democratic congress, Under the pro-
visions of that law. the export trade
Of the United States reached high wa
ter mark New markets were opened
TO American producers, and the eoun-
try was enjoying the greatest pros
perity It ever experienced when the
blow fell and ruin followed the tri-
amph of democracy at the polls.
Following the repeal OF our rec4proc-
fty laws, came retaliatory enactments
by many Of the countries with whom
We were enjoying amicable trade rela-
lions. The result was soon apparent
IN the failing off Of our exports. the
farmers more than any other class
feeling the effects Of restricted mar
ket, There was not country on the
globe in which our trade relations
were not restricted by this act Of the
democratic party.
But the scheme of the great Maine
statesman is embodied in the tariff
measure which the republican senate
is about to enact into law and which
will go into operation before the be-
ginning Of the next fiscal year. The
result win be the opening of ports in
every foneign country to American
products. The merchants of the world
VIII await the American producer. (
With better markets will come better
prices and the return of the prosper
GUS times enjoyed in 1892 The spirit ,
