Let the Farmer Alone.

The Waterbury Republican, while pro-
Tossing devotion to the general policy of
protection, wants to know why the
farmers of the United States should be
protected. We can think of many an
swers to that question but the answer
that seems to fit the present case best
is that when protection shall have been
withdrawn from the American farmer it
will also be withdrawn from the Ameri-
can manufacturer. Enforce the Water
bury idea by exposing the farmers to
the competition of cheaper imports OF
foodstuffs and how long will Waterbury
retain protection for its clocks and
watches? Not four years. Best not try
any experiments with the American
farmers.-American Economist.

BUSINESS BULLETIN.
Storms at Home and Complications
Abroad Check Activity in Trade.

New York, Jan. 28.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
Storms at home and complications
abroad tended to check activity in
commercial and financial markets, but
most industrial lines continue busy,
testifying to confidence that trade in
terruption will be brief. Country
merchants at the south have large
stocks that move slowly. New En-
gland manufacturing plants are well
engaged, especially in machinery
jewelry and textiles.
Production of pig iron continues at
the maximum rate, yet there is no
evidence of a reaction. Ample water
supply has made it possible to main
tain Connellsville coke production at
the remarkable average of 100000
tons weekly
Failures this week numbered 305 in
the United States, against 302 last
year, and 43 in Canada, compared
with 2S a year ago.

NO NEED OF RECIPROCITY.
Canada Already a Good Customer
Without Amy Tariff Tinker
ing Over Here.

Canada is already so good customer
of ours that all talk about the need OF
reciprocity to hold or stimulate the de
mand for our products from our north
ern neighbOrs is really waste OF words,
says the New York Sun.
We increased our exports to Canada
from a value of $32, 100000 in 1873 to
$131 100000 in 1904, fiscal year, and
when the statistics for the calendar year
are made up they are likely to reach
$150,000 600 That ic pretty good show
ing, with tariff conditions as they are.
In 1873 the balance of trade was
toward $5,000,000 in favor of Canada
but for the next six years it was stead
lily in our favor by from nearly $4,000
900 to more than $4,000 600 yearly.
The next year, 1880, it was against us
by about So, 100000, and in 1881 it was
about even. In 1882 the amount against
us rose to more than $4,000, GOO. In the
following three years it averaged about
81 900 600 a year in our favor.
1t was then that we unwisely tried
reciprocity. What was the result? We
went behind an average of nearly
So ,00O,0 600 year for six years. Then We
found out that the reciprocity was a
better thing for Canada than for us.
Our minds have remained the same ever
since, and the conviction has been
strengthened by the increase of our year
ly exports to Canada from about SAB ,OOO,
600 in 1892 to $131 100000 in 1904, and
of our trade balance from $S,OOO,O0O to
SO 100000
This growth has been in spite Of eff
forts in the later years to turn the tide
of Canadian imports in favor of Great
Britain by tariff preferentials Of from
1212 per cent. to the present British
preferential of 33 1-3 per cent. Instead
of hurting us, the tide has been still
more strongly in favor of the United
States.
The long and the short Of the matter
is that the Canadians jump over the
imaginary boundary line between their
dominion and the United States, and
buy American goods because they pre-
fer them and get quicker deliveries-in
many cases of better qualities at lower
price, quality and delivery are more
potent factors than sentimental allegi-
ance.
Nor has Canada, considering her slow
growth and the fact that her population
is only one-siXteenth that of the United
States, with a correspondingly limited
power of production, any right to COM
plain of the volume of her sales to us.
Starting from 1873, the record of those
sales increased from S37,OO0,000 to $50,
600 600 in 1904.
On this side of the account Canada S
best year was 1882, when her sales to us
were S51000,0O0 and the balance in her
favor more than $14 100000. At no time
during the reciprocity years did she sell
us over $4,000 600 year, while since
1902 the amount has not gone below
$4S, 100000.
What Canada really needs is not reci-
procity, but a political relation Of a
more intimate character with the Ameri-
can union.
