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

Canada is already SO good custome,
or ours that all talk about the need OF
reciprocity to hold or stimulate the de,
mand for our products from or north
ern neighbors is really waste OF words
says the New York Sun.
we Increased our exports to Canada
from value OF $50 900 900 In 1873 to
| $iSl.O0e.O0O in 1904. fiscal year. and
when the statistics for the calendar year
are made up they are likely to reach
$l50,00O.0 900. That ic a pretty good show
ing. with tarifr 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 1t was stead
lily in our favor by from nearly $4,000
600 to more than $4,000 900 yearly.
The next year, 1880, II was against us
by about $500, 900. and In 1881 1t was
about even. In 1882 the amount agains,
us rose to more than $4,000 900. In the
following three years 1t averaged abou,
$2,0O0.000 year in our favor.
1t was then that We unwisely tried
reciprocity. What was the result? We
went behind an average OF nearly
$3.000,000 year for six years. Then we
found out that the reciprocity was q
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 $l31 100000 in 1904. and
OF our trade balance from $4,000 900 to
SIS 900 900.
This o. hoc
forts in the later years to turn the tide
OF Canadian imports in favor OF Great
Britain by tariff preferentials of from
l2h2 per cent. to the present British
preferential OF 33 Ia 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
prices. When 1t comes to buy goods,
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 $37 1000, 900 to $751;
600, 900 in 1904.
On this side of the account Canada's
best year was 1882. when her sales to US
were $57,O00000 and the balance in her
favor more than $14 100000 At no time
during the reciprocity years did she sell
us over $42.OOO.O0O year, while since
1907 the amount has not gone below
$4S,000.000.
What Canada really needs is not reci-
procity. but political relation OF a
more intimate character with the Ameri-
can union.

The stock Market.

New York. Jan. 3O.-A seven point
fall in the price of Northern Securities
on the curb this morning discounted the
effect o. the decision of the United States
Supreme Court granting the Hartman
interests writ Of certoliari fora revision
of the decision of the Court of Appeals
for the Third district, which held that
the Northern Securities Company was
not obliged to return the identical stock
deposited in the pool.
When the news came from Washing
ton, Northern Securities was selling for
1881, a decline from 1855, the open
ing price. The stock held steady and
suffered no further loss. An effort to
take profits on Union Pacific, on the
news favorable to the Hartman interests
caused that stock to sell of two points.
The whole market was unsettled because
the decision means further prOlongation OF
the fight between the Morgan-Hill interests
and the Harrimans.

The PROCEEDINGS of the mass meet.
ing Of organized labor at the Opera
House last Saturday night were in marked
contrast to the turbulence and radical
ism so manifest in some gatherings in
other cities. The speakers were earnest
in setting forth the principles of trade
unionism, but avoided the use of Ian
guage to which exceptions might have
been taken. Representatives of the
brain and Drawn of the community were
present, and the best Of feeling prevailed
throughout the meeting One OF the
speakers voiced the truth when he ex-
claimed that the laboring element has
no issue with capitalists, but with monop-
olists. This was a common sense OBJ
seryation. Capitalists are as essential
in keeping open the channels of trade
as the artisan or the laborer. The man
who risks his capital in manufacturing
plant is by no means an enemy of the
working classes on the contrary, their
best friend. Should the venture prove
A failure he will be the greatest loser.
There never has been any good reason
why both cannot goarm in arm and real
iEe that what is for the good of one is
equally for the welfare of the other. But
amalgamations, monOpOlies and trusts,
which absorb the smaller capitalists and
manufacturers and become soleless cor
porations, regarding men as automata,
naturally incur the hostility of their
victims

MONDAY EVENING, JAN. 80, 1905.

For fifteen years the tariff rsiOrmers
have been charging that manufactured
goods were sold abroad at lower prices
than at home. This was not only an
entrsee on the American consumer, out
il DESTROYED the only foundation upon
which the tariff rests as an economic
proposition, and its champions do not
dare to confess that it is plain system
of grab. At first the protectionists de-
MED it then they said there was only a
very little to it, and now they are going
to investigate the United States Steel
Corporation to punish it for doing this
yerv thing. Concerning this proposed
investigation the Philadelphia Record
says
o.The stand patters are evidently rot
immovsble. but what is ii that has prod
ded them into this actual, though very
moderate, progress? A quarrel among
themselves. Last summer they sent q
commission around the country to ind
excuses for granting public moneys to
the owners Of ships in order that These
NAV spend the money with the builders
Of ships. Incidentally this commission
found out more than it wanted to know.
II found out that the Steel Corporation
was selling ship plates to British builders
fora good deal less than it would sell
them to American builders for. The
main purpose of the commission was to
create business for the American ship
builder. and this disclosure was little
more than it could stand. In its report
the commission says;
"'When American steel mills, long ana am
nlv protected. sell material TO foreign ship
tYards at eight or ten dollars below the price
asked from American yards, these steel mills
simply heap an unjust and intolerable burden
unon an interest now well nigh PROSTATE.
Gas mark of its displeasure at the
sale of ship plates abroad cheaper than
at home the party Of protection will have
the Steel Corporation investigated by
Commissioner Garfeld's bureau. 1t IS
10 he ascertained whether, as matter OF
fact. the Corporation controls the iron
and steel industry of the country, and
whether it is selling abroad cheaper than
at home and this is the significant thing
whether il is violating the interstate
commerce and the antitrust LAWS. "

The Oregon Short Line Case.

Washington, Jan. 30.--The appli-
cation tor a writ of certiorari made by
Edward Hartman and Winslow Pierce,
of the Oregon Short Line, for revision
by the U. s. Supreme Court of the
decision of the Court of Appeals for the
Sd district, holding that the Northern
Securities was not obliged to return the
indentical stock deposited 10 the original
Northern Securities pool, was granted
by the Supreme Court today. The effect
of this decision is to throw into issue
again the question whether or not the
original acquisition of stock by the
Northern Securities was legal, although
the purpose of the corporation was later
declared so illegal as to make necessary
the dissolution of the company. In case
the Supreme Court in the later proceed
ings to be taken under the writ of
certiorari granted this morning, further
supports Harrinan's contention, j. Pier
pont Morgan, James j. Hill and other
hackers OF the Northern Securities Co.,
will not be permitted in the dissolution
OF the company to sell all the stocks
held by it in the open market, and dis
tribute the proceeds to the share holders,
but will be forced to return the original
stock to the original holders there of.

Do Not suppress a Cough.

When you have a cough do not try to
suppress it, but remove the cause. The
cough is only symptom ofsome disease,
and the disease is what you should cure,
then the cough will stop of itself. The
most common cause of coughing is a.
cold. Anodynes will promptly suppress
the cough, and preparations containing
chloroform, opium, etc., are used for
that purpose, but they do not cure the
cold. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy on
the other hand does not suppress the
cough, but relieves it by removing from
the throat aud lungs the mucus which
obstructed the breathing and allsying
the irritation and tickling in the throst.
1t also opens the secretions and effec-
tually and permanently cures the cold as
well as the cough. For sale by Gibson

by the clergymen and Mr.. Stetson.
They insisted that he had stopped in
Reading only to discuss certain N alters
