AGAINST THE PREFERENTIAL TRADERS,

For a set of politicians who have played fast and loose with every other principle, it is remarkable how con- stant Sir Wilfrid Laurier and his col- leagues are in their antagonism to the idea of mutual trade preferences with- Through their other. wise amerphous policy this runs like a rudimentary structure which might some day become the backbone ofa strong anti-[mperial growth. Like some things “possessnig organic life, it now appears in its true form,and now appears in theform of something else, but it is always there. For example, when Sir Wilfiid Laurier was in Liver pool this opposition to a mutual pre- ferential arrangement was open and above-board. The Premier at that time declared that a British prefer- enceon Canadian bread-stuffs would be contrary to his Convictions; and his convictions, he proudly said, were thos: ef the thoroughgoing free trade school.

That downright manner of coming out against reciprocal preferences has given away to one no less fixed, but more deceptive. Whereas in 1897 Sir Wilfrid said that an offer of a British preference would not be acceptable to him as a free trader, it is nuw the habit of his followers to base their op- position to a Bnitish preference on every. ground they can think of in- dependently of free trade. Upon the latter basis of resistance they do fall back, but they no longer conspicuously take their stand on it. Whatever their professed objections, it is clear that these are masks for some more rooted prejudice against the policy. In the Toronto Globe of yesterday we have an example of the diplomacy that is practised to c.nceal the real motive.

The organ truly says that the Conser- | vatives adhere to the policy of mutual | trade preferences within the Empire. | If Sir Charles Tupper gets into office, | itstates, «changes will be made in our | tariff pursuance of this policy, changes | tending to protection. Then, strangely | enough, it declares that a protection. | ist Tupper Government would involve | itself in a free trade arrangement with | the various States of the Empire, a d dilates on the sad consequences to our once protected industries. In one paragraph to represent Sir Charles Tupper as a statesman disturbing in- dustry and trade by hoisting up the duties, and in the next tc picture him as a reactionary abandoning duties al- together, is rather too much, Instead of forming two parts of the same editorial these representations should have been kept for separate editorials published on different days. To ac- cuse Sir Charles of entertaining the free trade idea, even within his con- ception of an Imperial zollverein, is surely audacious. His record is too clear and tco puw)licly knewn for an allegation of that kind to be accepted by the organ’s most partisan readers. He has always consistently maintained, as Curfrepresentatives at the commercis] congresses in London have done, that the preferential arrangement must be a

Customs union, not a free trade union. He would agree to give

Britain tariff concessions equivalent to the comparatively small tariff concessions he would ask for the benc- fit of Canadian farmers, and such con- cessions on our part would mean some- thing far short of free trade. The Globe falsely accuses him of free trade intenticns, but if its accusations were tree we should think that it, of al! critics, would be the last to consider a free trade policy acause of offence. For years it was a fanatical preacher o! tree trade, and its files prior to 1896 are crowded with assurances of a free trad era under Liurier. Not content with} ttributing to{Sir{Charles both pri « te-.i1 mist and free trade designs as an Imperial Customs Unionist, the Globe tells us in the next breath that Britain will not grant us a preference any ways Thus it demolishes the vision of a pre- ferential arrangement in which Sir Charles is allowing all British goods to enter this market free ofduty. For this opinion it offers several reasons; first, the colonies are too small; sec- ond, the Mother Country is too strong- ly attached to free trade; third, she is

growing too much attached to the United States, and would not offerd that country by favouring the colonies. That Britain has any warm feeling to- wards the colonies, and that all the communities under Queen Victoria’s Sway are growing towards a more in- timate union, are facts which must b: left out of account to the Giobe’s special pleading. The movement towards mutual pre- | ferertial trade is not one limited to this conntry. It is an Imperial move- ment, affecting and enlisting Canada as it does every other part of the Empire. It means national growth and Empire growth, It is because of its Imperial character that Sir Wilfrid Laurier and his adherents oppose it? If not, why do they rack their ingenuity to find pre- , texts to cover their antagonism to it? , What other relations, what other des | tiny, for this country are they medi- tating which inspire them to fight against the idea of an Imperial zoliver- ein? They have certainly done all they could to damage the cause by both open and underhanded attacks upon | it. Sir Wilfrid Laurier struck it down just at the moment when it was all but , crowned with success, His doctored | preference to British goods has dam- | aged it. After tinkering the general | tariff so as to make the United States | the chief gainer by the revision, he| gave a fruitlesss concession to the} Mother Country. We know exactly what a preference means when we seek it from Britain. It means a tariff ad-' vantage on those products in regard | to which we meet the strongest foreign competition in the British market. Anda real Canadian preference to Britain would be one similiarly adjust- ed to favor and handicap her foreign competitors here.—Mail and Empire.
