A reciprocity arrangement between
Canada and the United States was on
Thursday of last week laid simultane-
ously before the parliament at Ottowa
and congress at Washington. In
special message to congress President
Taft urged the confirmation of the
agreement. Had the agreement taken
the form of treaty it would
have gone to the senate only, where a
two.tbirds vote would be required.
AS it is majority vote OF both
houses will be necessary, and in this
lies the only hope for its ratification.
But even at that there is much doubt
expressed in Washington whether any
thing can be accomplished prior to
March l.. The basis of the agreement
which will meet with much bitter Oppo-
sitlon, is reciprocity on leading food
products, such as wheat ard other
grains, dairy products, fresh fruits
and vegetables, eggs and poultry, fish
cattle, sheep. and other live animals.
Also certain commodities now free In
one country are to be made free by the
other, and rates mutually reduced or

Naturally we may expect democrats
to line up in favor Of reciprocity with
Canada. This state and its agrarians
have little, indeed, to fear from our
neighbor. The amount Of imports OF
all articles on the free list is insight
fcant in comparison with the total
consumption. The truth is abundant
ly emphasized in considering one ar.
ticle by itself put on the free list.
The benefit resulting to the state as a
whole far exceeds Any possible harm
that exists under present conditions.
In truth Canada wipes out large
share of the grain trade and hands
over to this country far more than 1t
gets 10 return. That Dominion has
two continental railroads whose future
usefulness will be predetermined. The
great elevators at Port Arthur may as
we'll close down for good, and Cana
dian bottoms must seek cargoes at the
ports OF this state. Naturally enough
opposition comes from agrarians
alone, but THAI will cease on reflection
and turn into dem and for ratification.
1t will tend TO Americanize the western
provinces and particularly those de-
vtt,d to agriculture. The St. Paul
Review thinks that the immediate
benefits to the two cities can scarcely
be conjectured at this time. Neces-
sarily it will take some time before the
new law will show its effects, but these
will be as certain as death and next
years taxes. The politicians need
time to find a place TO land to hold
their jobs.

Human Life for February

Mental Swine.

There is class of human beings
Says the Duluth Herald who have the
most perverted sense of humor that
can be imagined. They revel in the
things that decent people shun and
abhor. They take the same delight in
the lewd and filthy story that III
scavenging bird or animal does in an
unsavory mess of carrion. But there
is this difference-the bird and
animal are so constructed physically
that they get the kind of nourishment
they need out of the food no other
creature will touch, whereas the man
who feeds his mind on filth only de.
grades his mental and moral power
by every such indulgence.
There is another difference. The
scavenging bird and animal will
fight to keep others of its kind frou
sharing 10 the mess of carrion it ha:
discovered but the human swine VIII,
finds what, to bis rotten mentality
seems q choice bit of filth, rushes OF
to pass it on to somebody else. I
makes no difference to him whethe

him is of the same degraded class a

stuff on the most decent. cleaneminde

with delight as he passes it on.

Other merchants smiled grimly and
chuckled to see how the young fellow
was burying his advertising. But the
young man in three weeks had the wO-
men of the place TEARING OPEN
HIS INSIDE PAGE THE FIRST
THING, even before looking at the 10
cal news items. The advertisements
were filled full of the crispiest news.
The copy was not the general, lazy
kind to which the paper had been ac-
custOmed for so long. The articles Of
merchandise were listed one under an
other in readable tpye, and the PRICE
WAS PRINTED IN SMALL BLACK
FACE LETTERS OPPOSITE. Each
week a new advertisement appeared.
In prominent letters at the head of the
advertisement, just under the name Of
the store, appeared this phrase, Your
money back if you want it.
AS was ordained, the young man be-
gan to prosper. The older rival mer
chants looked on perpleXedly as their
oldest customers fell into the habit of
making part of their purchases at the
new store As the advertising of the
new store began to appear in the pap
ers of two neighboring towns five and
six miles away, buyers who had for
years traded at the other villages
drove in the other direction to investi-
gate the interesting proclamatiOns of

The crash young man had not only
established himself in place 'where
there were too many stores" but he
had extended the trading name of that
town farther than it had ever been ex-
tended before. And his advertise
ments so attracted attention that final
ly the other merchants insisted upon
having their ads removed from the loc-
al news-page to the patent inside sec
ton, near the "young fellows" adver-
tisements.
