reciprocity with Canada to the
same end is much agitated in New
England. RI,
The citizens of Liverpool, Eng
land, have recently been amazed to
see their streets thronged with
thousands of men and women
anxious to secure passage for the
United States. Somehow the notion
has got abroad that this country is
forging ahead, and that there is an
opportunity to earn a living in
America.
There is a strong sentiment on
the Pacific coast in favoriCof the
policy Of the Republican party re-
garding the Philippine islands. The
merchants and business men OF
that section of the country see that
their future interests are largely
bound up with the development of
our far eastern possessions, and the
growth of trade in Asia. Until the
Panama canal is finished they can
not hope to do much business with
Europe. 1t is therefore no matter
for surprise that these gentlemen
have largely contributed, unsolicit-
ed, to the Republican campaign
fund. The lumbermen of Washing
ton and Oregon are especially in
terestes in the Philippine Islands.
A remarkable admission is made
by a very prominent metropolitan
newspaper to the effect that plat
form makers, candidates and spell
binders, are powerless in their
efforts to frame the issues upon
which, the: present campaign turns.
One who has read President Roos
svelt's letter of acceptance is certain
ly not at a loss to known what are
the issues Of the day.
In a political campaign supposed
to be serious enough to change the
policy Of the Government the
intelligent and serious American
voter will demand something better
as reason for changing his party
preferences than carping criticisms
OF the nations chief executive or
chronic opposition to the party in
power. Many once dominant issues
are now in the political graveyard.
