and corn,—though there can be no doubt that, in view of the importation of there American articles in the face of heavy duties, they would overflow our markets if the duties were taken off. Would it pay us to give up the Nova Scotian and New Brunswick

beef and pork on the chance of obtaining

markets for oats, the privilege of free competition in the United States market in respect to cate, potatoes, horses, and eggs? That is the question to be considered by our farmers. There are other considerations, but that is the point upon which the representa tions of our farmers to the ministers onght to centre.

Is it, then, probable that the present government of the United States will reduce or abrogate the duties which, at the present time bear so heavily upon the commerce of this Province? We regret at the of such an im

is, indeed, redue-

tion of tariff applicable to all the world except Canada, and Mr Atkinson, | ardent free trader and doctrinaire as he is, casts aside his dogmas when he takes up

his scheme of

the case of Canada. In tariff reform at Washington he says :-

“ Upon an analysis of the imports and | revenue of the fiseal year ending June 30, 1892, it appears that in class A, articles of food and live animals, the following ar- ticles, to wit, vegetables, breads«tutts, fish, animals, provisions, salt, hay, egg*, and a few other petty articles, were valued and subject to duties as follows: Value of imports, $17,921,342.91; revenne, $5,005,- 445.21. As these imports were mainly from Canada, it woud, perhaps, be jude ciows to set them apart, to be dealt with under a treaty of reciprocity, and not to complicate the reform of the tariff by treating them at present.”

All countries are to be invited to enjoy |

:

the benefit of trade with the United States under a revenue tariff or free import sys tem, always excepting Canada, as to which ecuntry, even in the opinion of a dogmatic free trader who sacrifices his principles to hie American jingoism, the policy of co- | ercion is to be employed in order that a | market for American manufactures may be | obtained as a preliminary to political anion The Democrats are known as free-traders, | many of their most influential leaders openly advocating a tariff framed on the | lines of the British system. They are, | aleo, consistently with their principles, opposed to the negotiation of reciprocity treaties, the Democratic platform, a= laid | down at Chicago last year when Mr. } Cleveland received the nomination for the | Presidency, containing this clause :—

“We denounce the sham reciprocity which juggles with the peoples desire for enlarged foreign markets and freer ex- changes by pretending to establish closer trade relations with a cowntry whose | articles of export are aimost exclusively | agricultural, while erecting a custor | house barrier of prohibition tariff taxes | against the richest countries of the world, | that stand ready to take our entire snr: | plus of products and to exchange there- for commodities which are neces*aries and comforts of life among our own people.”

This clause of the Democratic platform | is pointed directly at Canada, and is decid- edly opposed to the negotiation of a treaty of reciprocity with Canada. What does it allmean? Free Traders of the United States desire that the free trade tariff of that country shall apply to all countries exeept Canada, and the democratic party in convention is pledged against a treaty of reciprocity with a covn- try “almost exclusively agricultural.” Are we to conelnde that all parties in the

Pnited States have resolved upon a plas of campaign against this coun-

try having for ite object her absorption by coereon into the American union? Is it, to use a eporting phrase, a game of | freeze out our neighbors are playing 7 | And have the periodics) visite to Wash- ington of Liberal politicians and renegade Canadians, or the eternal reiteration of the | statement that limited reciprocity of trade with the United States, involving all the | term jmplies, ix vital to Canadian prosper- ity, & potent influence in shaping the views | aud the legislation of the Americans ?

In any case we ought not to assume too quickly that the United States will re- move their hostile tariff as against €enada. They may dose, We sincerely hope that they will do so. But if no aret, our people prepered to give up the un- doubted advantages which they enjoy in their own country? We hope that the ministers will be able to arrive at a clear understanding upon this point, as well as as upon points in reference to our fishery interests, about which the ministers are soliettous,
