CANADIAN
RECIPROCITY
EXTRA SESSION ENCOURAGES
CANADIAN ADVOCATES WHO
WERE pIsHEARTENED.
SAY TAFT MADE GOOD
ENERGETIC CAMPAIGN BEING
WAGED BY CANADIAN oP-
PoNENTs OF MEASURE.

Ottawa, Ont.-President Taft's i'm
mediate call for an extra session OF
Congress in April puts a new face on
the reciprocity situation and may. in
the opinion of some of the opponents.
as well as the champions OF the pro-
posed agreement. save the cause in
Canada from any peril it may have in
CURED by the failure Of the United
States Senate to indorse the plan.
1t is generally conceded that II a
reciprocity session of Congress had
not been summoned and ratification
had been left to the session next fall.
the Canadian advocates Of the plan
might have been disheartened and
probably parliament would follow the
example OF Congress. leaving ratifi.
cation to its chances at the succeed.
ing session.
The action OF the President consid'
erably relieves the awkward situation
created here by the failure of the
Senate to endorse the agreement.
The liberal majority says that Mr..
Taft has made good for his govern
ment. the joint agreement that each
party to the bargain should use its
best endeavors to secure Legislative
approval OF the reciprocity compact,
and consequently they assert the
Canadian government must compel
satisfaction by discussion Of parlia'
ment.
However. the fight Mt Ottawa is by
no means concluded. Both sides say
the government is more than ever de-
termined to put the measure through
but the opposion continues to show
resolute front.
Quick action at INSTRUMENTATION
within a month or SO OF the converting
OF the extra session-will be neces
sary to avoid complications. II Con
gress has not paved the way for par
lament by ratification of the agree
ment before May 18th. when Sir vii
frid Laurier has arranged to depar,
to attend the coronation in London
or II the Canadian parliament should
continue to filIbuster up to the time
of the premier's departure, II Is
doubted that ratification would be at
tempted In the absence of Laurier
who not only is the official premier
but the recognized leader on all bic
questions.
The present opposition is encour
aged by an energetic campaign con

Only one local paper predicted
success for the suffrage amendmen'
on Wednesday morning; estimates
of the others ran from 5000 tC
10000 majority against it. This
morning all conceded that the 200
majority for suffrage could not be
wiped out by the scanty vote yet
to be heard from.
Returns from mountain and d
ert precincts and from the more
remote counties poured in steadily
all day Thursday and formed
almost unbroken list of suffrage
ma ajorities. The anti-maj jority vote
was wiped out and late last night
with 244 precincts missing out OF
more than 5000 in the state, sui
