"a PACT OF HONOR"
Minister Fielding Says Canada Made 1t
to Pass Reciprocity.

Ottawa, March 0.-'We have made
pact of honor in the name OF the
people of Canada with the United States
to pass upon this agreement as soon
as we reasonably can" was the an
swer which Finance Minister Fielding
gave to r. /. Borden, leader Of the OPP
position, who yesterday moved that
as Congress failed to carry out the reci-
procity agreement and considerable time
must elapse before Congress can deal
with it at the special session, the Can
adam parliament should not proceed
with the agreement until the electors
shall have had an opportunity OF passing
upon its merits"
The motion of Mr. Borden is re-
garded as the first step in an opposi-
ton plan TO delay ratification OF the
agreement by parliament until Congress
shall have finally pronounced upon it.
In support OF his motion Mr.. Dor
den said that nothing would be lost by
delay The Democrats. who We're COM
ing into power at Washington, were
pledged to lower the American tariff
and it was most importune Tor Cam
ada to confirm the agreement. He read
a letter of Sir William Van Horne con-
demning the agreement.
THE president Of the United States
is loyalty keeping his compact with
Canada" replied Finance Minister Field.
ing, "and he has even gone to the ex-
step of calling an extra SEES
sion of Congress to keep faith with the
of Canada. For parliament
to accept the motion made by Mr., Bor-
den would mean that we should have
our own honor. Shame on the
suggestion. 1t would be childish to say
that each country should wait upon the
action by the other II Is our clear
duty to 90 ahead and pronounce upon
this agreement"
Mr.. Fielding declared his belief that
a majority OF the United States senators
had been in favor OF ratifying the
agreement last session, but that its
passage had been blocked by the meth.

the House last night on a motion made
yesterday by r. L. Borden, leader Of
the opposition, that as American action
on the agreement had been delayed the
