Vote IT DOWN
In General Election Canada R.tet.
Reciprocity Dseisively
SLAPS US IN THE FACE
Political Landslide in the Dominion
Gives the Conservatives, Opponents
of Trade Pact with the United
States, More than Fifty Majority
in Next Parliament.

Canada slapped the United States,
sQuarely in the face on Thursday
and plainly said she wanted no closer
relations with US, business or Dcliti-i
cal. In the elections over there on
Thursday reciprocity suffered an
4 overwhelming defeat, along with. the
Liberal party whick favored that
trade pact with the United States.
A dispatch from Montreal says by
veritable political landslide, the
Liberal majority Of 43 was swept
away and the Conservative party Sc
cured one of the heaviest najorities
upward of 50-that any Canadian
Parliament has ever had. Seven Cab
met ministers, who have served with
Premier Laurier, were among the de-.
feated candidates. z.
The Liberals lost ground in prac-
tically every province Of the Domin-
ion. Where they won, their majori-s
ties were small Where the Conser-9
vatives won, their majorities were
tremendous Ontario, the leading
province Of Canada, decla red almost
unanimously against the Administra-
tion and reciprocity.
Robert l.. Borden, leader OF the
Conservative party, will shortly be-
come prime minister of Canada. He
will be supported in Parliament by
working majority Of far more than
ample for his purpose.
The government defeat means that
the Filding-Knox reciprocity treaty,
ratified by the American Congress In
extra session, will not be introduced
when the 18th Parliament assemblies
next month and that a revised basis
Of trade with the United States, look
ing to closer commercial relations
will not be possible in the immediate
future. The Conservatives are COM
mitted to policy Of trade expansion
within the Empire and closed door
against the United States.
AlthOuSn reelected LII TWO cOuSsl-5
tuencies in Quebec, the defeat Of the
Liberal party also means the retire
ment from public life Of Sir Wilfrid
Laurier, who, for nearly two. decades,
has directed the destines Of the Do
minion. Several times during the
bitter campaign, which preceded the
election, the venerable premier said
that defeat Of his party at the polls
meant the end of his career.
A Liberal mem bership Of SO from
Quebec was cut down to the suprem-
acy of the party, but it was ia Ontar-
10 that the Conservatives won their
5reat victories. Spurred on BY ap-
peals to patriotism and the cry that
reciprocity was the entering wedge
for annexation, the Conservatives
swept nearly everything before them.
That province, which in the last
Parliament was represented. by 35
Liberals and 81 Conservatives, will
send a delegation to the next COM
posed of 13 Liberals and Is Conser-
vatives. A notable feature Of the de-
feat was the opposition's capture Of
two hitherto Liberal seats In Saskat-
chewan.
