The practice Of purchasing the raw

Reciprocity With Canada

The question of reciprocity with
Canada so long agitated and so
earnestly considered by legislators
in Canada and the United States
has finally been passed by the Sen
ate and President Taft has won out
in his struggle for the bill. Shoul
the Canadian Parliament decide in
favor OF ratifying the international
agreement, and there seems to be
little doubt of that, the establish
ment of reciprocal relations will
soon follow. Whether or not reci-
procity will be for the hest inter
ests Of all concerned, remains to be
seen. but the traditional friendli-
ness between the two countries
that are neighbors for 5000 miles
and have substantially the same
conditions of productions should be
strengthened and the benefits
should be mutual.

The Folly Of Getting Worked Up.

About every so often a bill is
turned loose in Co ngress, in Senate
or House. some tariff to raise or
some tariff reduce or some budding
reformer to douse; and then we
stand up on our hind legs and let
out a yell like fan at a game and
we swear and we boot and we shout
and we sweat-but the country
goes on just the same.
Did you ever recall it has always
been so since George Washington
sat in the chair? That half of the
people see nothing but woe in the
bills that our statesmen prepare,
while another contingent that's
equally vast is clapping it's hands
in acclaim Then the bill is de-
feated or the bill is passed-but the
country goes on just the same.
You remember the bill that the
Democrats had that the Wigs
knew would ruin the land? How
half of the people were thoroughly
mad while the other half thought
it was grand? Let's see, that was
back in the year '53, and all of the
folks were ahame. You remem Der
the measure? Well, neither do we
-. for the country went on Just the
same.
Now, it isn't the bills that the
orators spring. down there in our

the orators sing and shout to the
capitol walls that make us or break
