The Canadian Situation

Ottawa. Ont. July 24.-The favor
able action by the United States SEN
ate on the reciprocity agreement puts
the government in somewhat
stronger position but it is conceded
that it will not prove a. factor in
breaking the present deadlock In the
Canadian commons. The leaders Of
the opposition profess to see no
change in the situation, and assert
that they will continue the fl
ibuster against a. measure which they
claim is the entering wedge looking
to dissolution Of Canada's ties with
the mother country.
Under parliamentary rules the ma
jority cannot force closure on a ques-
tion Of this kind. The opposition can
delay a vote indefinitely by provid-
ing speakers to continue debate and
this line Of. attack will be continued
when parliament reassembles this
week, It 10 asserted.
A dissolution Of parliament and an
appeal to the country IN q general
election with reciprocity as the, issue
is the only course left to the govern
ment and it is expected that Premier
Laurier, who conferred. with members
of the cabinet on the subject this aft
ernoon, will take advantage Of the
first opportunity to bring about, pro-
rogation, perhaps within fortnight.
Thirty days will be required to get
the election machinery in order and
