such statutes. In states lacking such
laws he proposes the senate limitation
of $4,000 for senator and $1,000 for
house candidates.
The principal opposition to the
Rucker amendments developed among
southern democrats. who do not want
campaign fund publicity applied to pri-
marles. In the south the primary gen.
orally Is the only contest in a congress
sional election. Much money frequently
is spent in primary. while practically
none is required In the election.
Politicians from the south who dis
like to disclose their campaign ex-
pense accounts are willing that such .
law should apply to elections, but they
strongly object to it's application to
primaries. They generally cloak their
objections with the argument that
primary Is q state affair solely and that
the federal government should not in
wade states rights.

CANADA EXPECTS WARM FIGHT
Aerid Cam paisn to Rssuit From Reel
proeity Treaty.

Ottawa, Ont, Aug. 1.-The Canadian
election campaign will not be in full
swing for a fortnight. AS it is nearly
seven weeks before election day and the
usual length of a campaign is a month,
both parties feel that they profitably
can devote some time to perfecting or
ganizaions before platform work is
inausurated vigorously.
Prime Minister Laurier is not expect
ed to start until the end of next week
upon his speaking tour with ratifica-
tion Of the reciprocity agreement with
the United States as the vital issue.
Opposition Leader Borden probably will
begin his public appearance a little
earlier.
Clifford Sifton. former minister Of In
terror. issued letter yesterday urging
Canandians to vote against reciprocity,
which he declared would prove injuri-
Gus to Canada and to the British ems
pire.
Supporters Of reciprocity and follow
crs of the government regard as signifi-
cant Mr.. Sifton's announcement also
made yesterday that he will not seek
reelection to parliament He was a
member of the Laurier government for
many years, but resigned when Sas-
katchewan and Alberta we're consti-
tuted provinces. because Roman Catho-
lies there were allowed to have sep
arate schools.
Mr.. Sifton's decision not to run was
taken by liberals as indicating his rec
ognition Of the popularity Of recipro-
city. in spite Of the fact that he is
fighting 1t.
They also declare that the fact that
Henri Bourassa, leader Of the national
party OF Quebec. has announced that
he will not be a candidate for election,
indicates that Quebec again will give
almost solid support to Sir Wilfrid
Laurier.
While the government will endeavor
to keep reciprocity as the dominent and
If possible the only issue Of the cam
paign. the manifesto of Opposition
Leader Borden shows that his candi-
dates will bring to the fore other is
seus. For one thing the government
will be denounced as having been a
party to various scandals which have
been discussed in parliament.
indications are that the campaign
will be bitter one with amenities
disregarded.
