privilege The country feels that they have shown a curious inability to realize that the Government should be conducted in the interests of the average man-who is a poor man with an annual income of less than seven hundred dollars a year on which to house, feed, clothe his fam fly. The country feels that the Re publican administration in most, if not all, questions where there was conflict between the special inter- ests and the people. has sided with the former as long as public opinion allowed it to do so. More and more the conviction has taken hold of the people that the administration has been under influences which have pre- vented it from considering the poor.
 When Reciprocity was introduc- ed to the people it was with a flour ish of trumpets.
 It was announced by the President, the Cabinet, and the Capitalistic press to be a remedy for the alleged in justices of the Payne-Aldrich Tariff, and a great act of constructive states manship.
 The political leaders pointed with pride to Reciprocity as a proof of their popular and progressing ideas on tariff. The bill itself, Hike all tariff bills, was not read by the peo- pie, and what was learned about 1t from the daily press was on the whole in line with the claims made by politicians The very name "Reci- procity with Canada was enough to disarm criticism.

part of the injured classes against the favored classes, resulting in real tar if reform in the interests of the whole country. From this point or view Reciprocity is strangely enough likely to prove break in the solid tariff wall which has exist ed so long in favor of the manufac- turing interests-the very same 1n- terests that the Reciprocity sched- ules were so carefully calculated to protect.'f
 when the record of the Sixty-sec- ond Congress takes it's place in his tory, the intelligent public of the United States will have understood the "Reciprocity" bill much more fui- ly than it understands it now. The one-sided and wholly unjust nature of the measure will have become matter of public knowledge, and the efforts of the Insurgents to embouy common justice and common sense into the bill will be fully compre- hended by the country.
 In the meantime, the so-called "Reciprocity'' bill should be read by all who are interested in current poi- itics The gospel should be view ed at close range. Whatever may be said of it as d tariff measure, it was a masterpiece of machine politics.
 Nevertheless, by playing politics Tn "Rectprocity," the administration has not permanently improved MT. Taft's position as a candidate.
 The regular leaders of the Repub- lican Party are now on trial charged with undue sympathy with special

Nevertheless 1t th now highly probable that not ever the Payne -Aldrich Tariff, the Presf- dents Alaskan policies, or his recep- tion of the wool, cotton and farmers free list bills will prove so formid- able a stumbling block to the plant for his denomination and reelection as this "gospep' of Reciprocity For, added to it's injustice to the far. mer and its betrayal of the interest," of the consumer is a peculiar and sin. ister element of danger, the danger that the country will at last read thu Reciprocity" bill and see that no even the Payne-Aldrich act was % conspicuous an example of a tarif measure framed in the interest sos special privilege, and realize that C. has been egegriously fooled
