The campaign is no joke with the two

the business interests of either of the

frontier, says that general strike has
been declared in CATALONIA and will be
proclaimed through the whole of Spain

is rapidly spreading, but no disorders
have been reported.
Madrid advices to the same paper state
that the government is exceedingly anX-

from other sources, but Madrid dis

FEAR OF LOSING CANADA.

London, Nov S.-The movement for
closer trade relations between the
United States and Canada is being
watched with some uneasiness here,
reciprocity would not only be re-
sal ded rs Dangerous to British trade,
Dat as the first step toward pol
ltical union between the republic and
the oomlnlon. The Standard says
The fundamental point to bear in
NINA Is that a reciprocity treaty can
not end as d mere commercial ar
ranSement There is so much close
ihter-communication between the two
English speaking federations of North
America that an economic alliance is
bound to extend into other spheres.
1t seems impossible that Canada can
remain connected with the country
beyond the ocean when she has united
ferse.i for purposes which affect the
daily life Of all her citizens with an
other and larger community at her
side
Loyal and British in sentiment as
most Canadians are, we doubt whether
they could in the long run resist the
strain of this powerful magnet. Gradu-
ally. perhaps imperceptbly, they will be
drawn closer and closer to their neigh
bors, until the weakened strands of i'm
perial connection are broken asunder.'
This subject is almost certain to have
an important bearing on the results Oh
the imperial conference next year, for II
is recognized by the tariff reform party
that it would hardly be reasonable 10
suppose that Canadian feeling would con-
tinue indefinitely to defend British pref
erence from external attack, if that pa
triotic defence met no responsive recog-
milton from the mother country.
