Hitherto, while favoring the reci-
_>ro_city agreement as one likely to be
if mutual benefit to both the United
States and Canada, and of especial
.enetit to Prince Edward Island and
;he Maritime Provinces, The Guardi-
ln has doubted whether it would re-
row short and it is_nlways risky to
rophesy, but we have modified our
:iews upon that point and we shall
.rot be greatly surprised if (Jongress
.hall sanction the agreement.
The reasons for this hope are vs-
.-lous. After the first surprise which
was caused by the unexpected extent
of the proposed changes, 'the agree-
nent has been much more generally
endorsed by the leading newspapers
of the United States than was at
_irst expected. .Iudged by these press
opinions alone one might expect the
ratification of the agreement, but it
'las frequently been found that a
popular verdict at the polls has been
.juite at variance with the weight oi
press opinion, either because the
press was in advance of public senti-
aient, or from other causes.
It is not the ordeal of an immedi-
ate election, however, but the verdict
of Representatives and Senators in
Congress which the agreement has to
face. And these Members and Sena-
tors are shrewd politicians, nearly
equally divided between the two
great political -parties, but closely
observant of popular opinion, and al-
ways having in mind the party ad-
vantage. This brings us to consider
what would be- the affect of the re-
jection of the agreement by the Re-
publican majority, 'if they should
combine against it.'
We must bear in mind that the Re-
publican party as the promoters and
upholders of high protection have
been met by the revolt of the people,
including a section of their own par-
.ty and the entire Democracy ol the
country against the high and in-
reasing cost of living caused, as the
people believe, by the tariff. From
President 'I‘aft's point of view, this
uprising must be met by some con-
eive the endorsation of Congress bc- cession, and the reciprocity agres-
ore the 4th.0f March. 'l‘h`e time isiment is s concession in the least ob-
jectionable form that it'can be made.
Even the protected interests in the
United States had rather consent to
reciprocity than to a general reduc-
tion of the tariff all around.
If reciprocity were to be now re-
jected by the Republican party, sup-
ported as it is by the Powerful influ-
ence 0! the President and his Cabin-
et, it would seem likely to promote
5 strong reaction against that party
in the minds of the great body of
consumers throughout the country
and force a large body of Republi-
cans into the Democratic ranks at
the next election. And even the pro-
tected interests rnust see that the
end would be not with such minor re-
ductions of duties as recrprocity in-
volves, but 5 much more sweeping re-
duction all along the line.
These and other considerations lead
us now to think that the agreement
may be ratified at Washington and
so go into effect at no distant date.
Of the result at Ottawa we have
never been in doubt, despite the loud
outcry raised in certain quarters in
Canada. The leading Conservative
organs are of course ranked strongly
against reciprocity, but it is note-
worthy that a good many of the Op-
position newspapers, such as the
Montreal Gazette, the Ottawa Citi-
Zen, the Ottawa Journal, the Toron-
to World and others, along with Mr.
Monk, s, leading Quebec Conserva-
tive, are so exceedingly mild in their
criticisms as to show their belief in
the general popularity of the recipro-
city compact.
The Imperial Parliament is now
open in its first session and has a
most important ministerial program
before it, including the Veto Bill, for
limiting the powers of the House of
Lords and a bill for the payment of
Members of the House of Commons.
I-Iitherto the members of the British
Parliament have been, from time im-
memorial, the unpaid servants ofthe
nation. Excepting only those holding
office in the Government the honor
and distinction of holding their seats
was their sole reward.
In other nations enjoying represen-
tative lnstitutions, as in France,
Germany, Italy, the United States
and in all the British Dominions and
Colonies over sea, the rule has been
to ay the members of Parliament
ei her an annual or Sessional salary
or 1 nity, ranging from such
small as the members of our
Provinci gislature receive, up to
the $2,500 paid to our Senators and
Members at Ottawa, and to much
larger payments in other and more
important national Parliaments.
The British system of gratuitous
service had its distinction, certainly,
and also some possible advantages,
but the disadvantages were also con-
siderable, and the plan was out of
line with that adopted and approved
by other nations of the civilized
world. It made for centuries of the
House of Commons a sort of gen-
tlcmen‘s club, and excluded almost
entirely the poor man, or the man of
moderate means from seeking or ob-
taining a seat in that body. Only
poor men of the highest talents
could obtain a seat, and if a seat
were obtained he could ill afford to
attend upon his duties during the
very long sessions.
The change now to be brought a-
bout is the natural result oi the re-
peated extensions of the voting fran-
chise and the awakened desire of the
plain people to be represented in
Parliament by the best of their own
class. rather than by the wealthy or
the titled mediocrities who had so of-
ten been chosen in the past. It means
less of culture, perhaps, in the Bri-
tish Parliamenta that are to be here-

after, but it also means a truer re-

THE PATRIOT IS WRONG.
Under the so-called modusvivendi
American fishing vessels were allowed
to fish in Canadian waters on pay-

of such vessels and were also permit-
ted to purchase bait and supplies and
to tranship their catch. This was not
free fishing, brit fishing under license.
The American negotiators were desir-

have the above Privileges without lic-

within the three mile limit and the
fish therein are ours, as much as the
soil of the shore, and the license as-
serts and confirms our proprietary
right.
The reciprocity agreement does not
give American fishermen free fishing.
It simply reduced the license fee from
$1.50 per ton to the nominal sum of
one dollar per vessel. Thus Canada
still retains control and can seize
unlicensed 'vassela and deal with
them under Canadian law. What has
been agreed to neither increases nor
diminishes the privileges American
fishermen have heretofore enjoyed in
our waters. They are granted a re-
duction of the license fee and our
tishermen are given in return a free
market for their fish. _
Fishing on the high seas, that is,
beyond the territorial limit of a
marine league from shore, has al-
ways been free to all the world. In
the nature of things n. liccnse to
catch fish can only rcfer to inshore
fisheries, that is fisheries within the
three mile limit.
SOCIAL EXTRAVAGl\N(`E.
In Europe and America ocial ex-
travagance has becontg wldesprcad
vice of the age. The 'répirf ccomu-
,quic-irened the pace 'argi"‘l'éd ‘to all
among the "new rich” 'who depended
upon a show of wealth to conquer
for themselves a place in the social
circle to which they were not cntitled
by birth or culture. The vice has
spread to the old world-or rather
gained a new prominence where it al-
,ready existed-in recent years.
"I should say that extravagance
was s, passport into society," wrote
Mrs. Asquith recently. "This is not
the language of some social satir-
ist," says another writer, “but°of
no less well-infofrmed a person than
lMrs. Asquith, the wife of the Prime
Minister. * * * But Mrs. Astpuith's
`epigram does without doubt repre-
sent the facts fairly accurately."
This then is the state of society in
the United Kingdom as well as else-
where and it is a very undesirable
state of affairs.
