Heyburn's remark, which he later ex'
planned extended only to government
al acquisitions.
Senator Gallinger brought on the
controversy by asking If this nation
did not owe more to England, lin the
way of reciprocity, than 1t did to Can
ada, because OF the free trade market
that England had always given to this
country and the rest Of the world.
Senator Nelson, Of Minnesota, de
clared that his only hope Of benefit
from the Canadian reciprocity agree
ment was that it might lead to annex
alton Of Canada. He met Senator Gal
linger's argument. mat reciprocity
ought to be given to Melco and all
other nations, If given to Canada, by
saying that this country could not
hope to annex the rest Of the world.
"But il we can accomplish the an
nexation Of Canada we will have done
a great DEAL" said Senator Nelson.
"Canadlan annexation at this time
Is an iridescent dream" said Senator
Gallinger, who is a Canadlanby birth

Senator Gallinger, that when this
