Reciprocity as a Confidence Game.


From the Chicago Record Herald.
There is no hope for any of the reel
procity treaties now pending in the Sen
ate" writes William E. Curtis "The re-
publican party is not in favor Of reciprocity,
or else it Is not represented in that body. :"
The truth is that this session of Con-
gress goes by and thej treaties are still
ignored, the party wal BID fully convicted Of
using reciprocity as fraudulent Campaign
cry. 1t is now some twelve years since it
was employed with dramatic effect by Mr.
Blaine during the debatst on the Mckinley
bill. He forced reciprocity into that bill,
and before its repeal1Gs beginning was made
in the negotiation Of treaties and their
adoption which wasf fullfpf promise. Since
then the party has converted that promise
into political capital many times over. Its
platform of 1896 said:
1--WE believe the repeat of the reciprocity
arrangements negotiated by the last repub-
lican administration was a national caiam-
ity. and we demand their renewal and ex-
tension on such terms as will equalize our
trade with other nations, remove the re-
strictions which now obstruct the sale Of
American products in the ports of other
countries and secure enlarged markets for
the products of our farms, forests and fac
tories" go
The calamity, 1t will be recognized. ia
now perpetuated by those who bemoaned 1t,
and the very organization which demanded
the renewal and extension Is incapable of
enforcing the demand though 1t is in pos
session of all branches OF the government
Five years after the passage Of the Dingley
bill, with its enabling clause. there Is still
no progress beyond the executive and the
prospect is that the treaties will fail and
reciprocity remain dead letter, though 1t
was applauded by the late President is in
dorsed by his successor and was used to
placate tariff reform republicans SO late
as the campaign Of last fall.

they have been satisfactory. The writer
