So grave a menace to her industrial
welfare is not long to be endured by
Canada. Her tariff will go up, not
down. She will not commit industrial
suicide by opening still wider her
gates to the invasion Of the American
surplus. The Mail says:
"Our neighbors have an enormous
manufacturing capacity and a greatly
shrunken home demand. Congestion
is resulting. To relieve the pressure
of accommodating stocks upon prices,
they can afford to dump enough on
this market to smash many of our in
dustries and turn tens of thousands
of our people out of employment. The
danger is urgent. II we are to keep
back the tidal wave Of depression
that threatens us from the United
States we must have our tariff wall
raised. We should have had it raised
long ago had there been men of bust
ness in the place of the squanderers
who are now in charge Of the country's
affairs"
In strong confirmation of this state
ment of Canada's growing aversion to
any and all schemes of reciprocity in
manufactured products, the Ottawa
correspondent of the Toronto Globe,
the recognized mouthpiece Of the Can
auian government, writes to that pa
per Nov. Is as follows:
Reciprocity with Canada appears
to be live topic in the United States
at present, but here nobody is wasting
any sleep over the matter. Senator
Fairbanks has not, as far as can be
learned, communicated with the prime
minister since last spring, when he
was told that the resumption Of the
Joint High Commission could not be
considered until after the close Of
Parliament.
"If negotiations looking toward reel
procity are to be opened it will have
to be on the initiative of the United
States, when any proposition which
our neighbors to the south may make
will receive fair and honest considera-
ton. It is well. however, for them to
understand that Canada can get along
without any favors from the United
States"
Herein, we think, the Canadian at
titude is accurately expressed. Can
ada is not going to wreck her indus
trial future by inviting reciprocity in
manufactured products. That much
seems to be settled. II Is we'll that
reciprocity promoters on this side Of
the boundary should know the facts
and understand the conditions.

Two Conspicuous Examples.

It is amusing to know that England
is about to discard her policy of free
trade to save herself from absolute
humiliation in the industrial world.
1t brings the tariff question squarely
down to the proposition laid down in
the Republican platforms in the past
it is better to protect home indus
tries, by means of tariff on imports.
and keep mills and factories busy
than to maintain free trade and have
industrial stagnation.
Every period Of Democratic low tar
in in American history has been a
period OF hard times. Every period
Of high protection has seen a great
industrial prosperity. In the last six
years, while the United States under a
protective tariff has been enjoying I'M
told prosperity, England under. free
trade has been struggling with indus
trial paralysis, and will try the tariff
as a cure.
Free trade and free silver are the
two conspicuous examples Of wrong
guesses on the part Of the Democratic
party.-Ottawa (Kan.) Herald.

even the selfish interests that have

This would be pleasant news II only
1t were true. But it is not Not a
single interest that has at any time op-
posed the Cuban treaty-excepting, Of
course, the beet sugar factories that
have been bought up by Havemeyer
has become convinced that no harm
will come to them because of its pro-
visions. On the contrary, they con-
tinue to assert that great harm will
come to them and to protest against
the wrong and the injustice Of the
proposition. To assert that mot an
American interest is sacrificed" that
1T will do harm to no industry" is to
assert an opinion that may be hon
estly entertained, even though based
upon a total misconception of fact.
But to state, as the Commercial Ad-
vertiser does, that all interests hereto
fore hostile to the Cuban treaty are
reconciled to its adoption is to state
a palpable untruth.

1t is best to look the situation
squarely in the face and to know the
truth regarding the prospect of nego-
tiating a reciprocity dicker with Can
ada. AS a matter of fact, there is no
prospect whatever of arranging deal
whereby the manufacturers of the
United States shall obtain larger priv
ileges in the Canadian market. Even
If it were possible to bring about
reciprocity in natural products; even
supposing that the Republican party
should be foolhardy enough to still
further arouse the resentment Of
American farmers by opening up free
trade in farm products, there is no rea-
son to suppose that American manu-
facturers would be permitted to mon
opolize the Canadian market. Every
day 1t becomes more and more appar-
ent that Canada will never consent to
become the dumping ground for
American surplus production. At this
moment Canada's iron industry is suf-
fering sorely from the invasion of
cut-price stun from this side of the
border. American brands of iron are
being offered at 50 per ton below the
lowest price Canadian iron can be
laid down at. The Toronto Mail of
Nov. 8 directs attention to- the fact
that American statesmen in Canada are
quoting cut prices on every kind of
iron and steel merchandise.
"They sell pig iron to Canadian
foundrymen and the Canadian steel
maker. Then they sell stoves and

ARTISANS AND THE TARIFF.
Why Wase-Earners Should Support a
Protective Policy.


OF all people, those who depend on
their handicraft for a livelihood
should be the most loyal supporters of
the policy of protection. This has al
ways been the contention of protec-
ton leaders in the United States,
though the success of this policy has
been due to the support given 1t by
the American farmers and business
men. Now that tariff campaign is
on in England this phase of the ques-
ton is not being forgotten.
The London Daily Telegraph OF Au-
gust 4, 1903, gave an illustration Of
the effect of free trade on labor that
should receive the careful attention Of
all American artisans, that they may
more fully realize some of the benefits
accruing to them from the operation
OF the American policy. Under the
free trade policy of Great Britain
there was a decrease in twelve years
of over 100000 In the value of man.

ish labor) exported from the United

that at least one-half of the increase
in the value of the imports would have

points. This was one of the companies in

The chief stock with which the Taylor in

and this developed further weakness to-
day. After opening up one-quarter 1t ran
OFF sharply, affecting the rest of the list and
causing recessions of l to points In many
standard issues.
The particular weakness of Reading at
tracted some attention, because Mr.. keene

Mexican Central issues. with which the
Stow people were identified, were steady
for the common, which opened q up. with
sales of 1900 shares at Is, and the first in
come bonds 1 point up. at 1512; but the
second incomes were more than points off,
with very heavy sales. One block of $4,000
of the second incomes came out at 9. These
shares held fairly well for time, but later
eased off somewhat. After the recovery in

banks was reasonably good. The late SELL
