Reciprocity.

The republican Senators In caucus to-
night will consider. with other things. the
question of reciprocity. 1t is most i'm
portant question. and well worthy of their
best deliberations. Reciprocity. indeed.
wisely employed. is the complement of pro-
lection. and enables that policy to be APP
piled with increased benefit to the country.
1t has commanded. and row commands.
the support of the ablest of the republican
leaders. and in the preparation of the Nc
Kinley bill there was something of con-
test for the credit of grating the reciproc-
ity provision on that measure. 1t was
claimed for President Harrison. for Mr..
Blaine. for Mr.. Aldrich and for several
others. but at last the main point came
TO be that every man of note in the party
approved cordially of the provision. and
thus it received definite party sanction.
The free trader who has the courage of
his convictions is opposed to reciprocity
because he regards il as merely a qualified
protection. He is against all trade bar
riers. of whatever height or thickness. He
wants them all removed. and trade with
ali countries in everything made as free as
possible His theory is that people should
he permitted TO buy in the cheapest and
sell in the dearest market wherever found
without regard to any other consideration
than the mere price of things. That is his
recipe for business and prosperity
the protectionist considers that the mar
kets of the United States of very great
value. and should not be opened to out
siiers except upon terms carrying profit
to the whole country. He sees that they
are highly valued ny the outside world
and his contention is that therefore they
should be- treated part of the country :
assets. He holds that they should not De.
cs' ned TO the country's competitors except
upon the couEtrys own terms. The coun-
try. he has seen, can regulate the matter
TO its profit. and by means of reciprocity
