whether this will be possible at the pres

til Mr. 'Balfour returns from the Con-
tinent at the end of the week.
The reciprocity agreement continues to
excite keen interest Sir Gilbert Parker
the Canadian member of Parliament for
Gravesend, publishes a statement Oh this
subject. After referring to the strong
opposition by Sir John \. Mcdonald, the
Canadian premier, and Edward Blake,
leader of the Canadian Liberals, some
- years ago. to commercial union with
the United States. because that would
mean political union, Sir Gilbert said;
."rhe agreement is desperately seri-
Gus thing and will eventually mean that
the Canadians have lost their grip on
their own independence. Canada's fight
for two generations against American
commercial tyranny was the source of
her progress and wealth. 1t gave hef
energy, resourcefuIness and determining
ton, but under this agreement, the Unit
ed states seeks a new field for exploita-
ton for American finance, new opportuni-
ties for the overow of American energy

fishing List of COntribu-
tors to 1911 Events.

Special efforts are being made by SsnA
son to make the parade this fall the big
gest and best in all the history of the
numerous dynasties of the kings of Ak
Sar-Ben. A letter has lust been issued
with a plea extraordinary for the BUSH
ness houses of the city to make their con-
tributions as liberal as possible.
Although many have rallied to his aid
in the past with contributions that have
been most generous, there have been
some business houses which have sub
scribed for amounts less than those sub
scribed by individuals of limited means,
returning only a nominal sum. A few have
not had their names on the roll at all.
The management is now seriously con-
sidering a plan to publish the subscription
list. should II appear likely that the same
state of affairs is going to prevail this
year.
All who have seen the show at the
den this season. and the number is a
large one, as the great building is packed
to capacity every Monday night are en-
thusiastic in their praise Two of the
songs OF the Gymkhana have been put
into sheet music form. and went on sale
