NEW CANADIAN
BECOMES BIC
United States, the Domin-
ion and England Stirred
by Agreement For
Reduction of Gus
toms Duties.
By JAMES A. IDGHRToN.

~ ANADIAN reciprocity as agreed
A upon by President Taft and the
~ Dominion government promises
to be one Of the biggest ques-
tons injected into American politics
for many years. Already 1t is agltat-
ing the entire country, and especially
that portion of 1t along the Canadian
border, and is forcing new alignments
in congress. There is serious doubt
as to whether the presidents recon-
mendation will be approved by both
houses at this session. 1t may not get
through either house. The general
opinion In Washington is that 1t will
be passed by the house of representa-
tives, however, and will be hung up
without action in the senate.
Properly speaking, the agreement is
not a treaty at all. 1t is simply rec
ommendation by the two governments
that their respective legislatures enact
into law certain tariff provisions af-
fecting the two countries. The bill en-
bodying these recommendations must
take exactly the same course as any
other tariff measure. In the case Of
our own congress this means that 1t
must originate in the house and be
passed by that body before it goes to
the senate. A majority vote in each
house will carry it to the president for
approval.
If the understanding were really a
treaty 1t would not go to the lower
house at all, but would require ratifica-
ton only in the senate, which would
have to pass it by a two-thlrds vote.
Under the circumstances it is extreme
ly fortunate for the reciprocity agree
ment that It is not q treaty.

kinds of machinery, coke, wood pulp,
print paper and other kinds Of paper.
Articles not on the free list, but con-
siderably reduced, with the same rates
applying TO both countries, include all
kinds Of meats. flour. clocks and
watches, automobiles. farm machinery
and building stone. Reductions are
also made on bituminous coal and 9th
er articles, but with different rates be-
tween the two countries.
There is confusion as to the wood
pulp schedule for the reason that some
of the Canadian provinces require that
timber cut from crown lands must be
manufactured into wood pulp in the
province. An effort will be made by
the Canadian government to have
these restrictions removed. John Nor
ris, representing the American News
paper Publishers association, believes
the agreement If ratified will material
ly reduce the price of print paper.
The part President Taft has played
in the negotiations has been notable.
1t win be recalled that last year he
spent a memorable two days at AL
bany in consultation with the governor
general Of Canada, the minister Of
finance and other Dominion officials.
1t was then that the general outlines
of the agreement were fixed, the COM
missioners from the two countries
afterward working out the details.
Second 10 the president perhaps the
most important figures In the nego-
tlations were w. s. Fielding, minister
OF finance for Canada, and Philander
@. Knox, American secretary Of state.
The presidents second big play was
his special message TO congress recon-
mending the approval of the agree
nent. The third move was HIS Nc
Kinley day speech. in which he quoted
the dead presidents reciprocity sentl-
ments uttered the day before his as
sasslnation In Buffalo.

Success Seems Assured.

with the large Democratic aces
sions in both houses in the new con-
gress there is belief that the proposal
must ultimately go through. AT least
a part of the progresslves are certain
to favor It. and It is even possible that
n majority will take that course. In
addition many Of the regulars will also
line up with the administration.
The exact status of the agreement
seems to be this: 1t must be ratified
as n whole or rejected as a whole.
There can be no amendments. II must
receive a majority in both houses of
congress. The new Democratic house
will pass it without question. and It
Is probable that the present house will
do the same. So far as the attitude
of the present senate can be arrived
at, it is hostile. The new senate will
be more favorable. the only question
being as to whether there will be
enough new accessions favoring the
proposal to carry it.
There are two views as to the eff
fects of Canadian reciprocity on Amer
lean farmers. One is that the tariff
on farm products is of little or no
benefit to the farmer since he pro-
duces a surplus above the amount
needed for home consumption and the
prices received are therefore fixed in
the markets of the world. Advocates
of this theory believe that the adoption
of Canadian reciprocity will have a
negligible effect on our farmers. At
the same time it will not materially
reduce prices to consumers. 1t will
tend, however. to prevent grain corners
and stock market manipulations.
The other view is that the free i'm
portation of Canadian farm products
will reduce American prices and will at
tract hosts of American farmers to the
cheaper lands Of the Dominion. Sup
porters of this idea aver that the only
American benefciaries of reciprocity
will be the consumer, the railroad and
the manufacturer. In the matter of

RECIPROCITY
POLITICAL ISSUE
Democrats and Progressive

Liberals In Support
of President Taft's
Measure.

assorted varieties Of verbal taffy. Here
is a sample: In fifty years the Domin-
ion may so far outstrip the mother
country that the king himself will re-
side in Montreal. This sort of pabu-
lum does not go far with the hard
headed Canadian farmer, however.
He smiles cynically as he reflects that
in the past the Dominion has given
Great Britain everything and has re-
ceived In return nothing but three
cheers.
The Liberals in England take a far
more composed view of the situation.
Many favor the proposal of Canadian
reciprocity with the United States on
the ground that 1t will be step in the
direction Of freer trade. The same
general alignment is observed among
the Canadians themselves. The Lib
erals support the measure: the Con-
servatives oppose. As the Liberals are
in control both at London and Mon
treal, the groanings of the opposition
will probably have little effect on the
outcome. 1t is not without significance
that it should be the Conservatives in
Canada and England who fight the
proposition and the standpatters who
are against it in the United States.

American mill to be ground.
On the free admission of live stock.
supporters of reciprocity assert that
the adoption of the agreement will ac-
tually help American farmers. AS
there is little corn grown in the Do
minion. Canadian range cattle will be
brought across the border to fatten.
Fishermen Object.
Farmers are by no means the only
ones Directing to the proposal. The
fishermen of New England are up in
arms. At Gloucester the flags were
put at half mast on the announcement
of the plan. The New England pulp
mills are also in opposition. 1t seems
a foregone conclusion that most of the
senators from this section will vote
against ratification. Yet, strangely
enough, the man who is leading the
fight for reciprocity In the house is
Representative Samuel w. Mccall Of
Massachusetts,, regular Republican.
Back of Canadian reciprocity is a
larger question which everybody rec
ognizes, but which nobody talks much
about. In England IT furnishes one of
the grounds for opposition to ratihca-
ton of the agreement In America 1t
is supplying just as powerful senti-
ment the other way. In Canada, If rec
ognized at all. It is brushed aside.
This is the question Of Canadian an
nexation. Is 1t only dream. or is 1t
a possibility Of the near future? Can
ada is more nearly related to us than
to Great Britain. Her interests are
identical with ours Her natural out
let and market are through the United
States. The natural corrse OF trade is
north and south. Even Dominion poll
tics is rapidly becoming more Ameri-
can than English. Is reciprocity an
entering wedge? Is the last great Eu-
