By JOHN V. HORNE. In reality there is not much differ- ence between ‘fLet Laurier Finish His [ET WELL ENOUGfl ALONE Means Just About the Same as “Let Laurier Finish His Work" Sir Wilfrid Laurier had led the Lib- rals who in 1891 desired unrestricted reciprocity. Mr. Fielding when Pre- mier of Nova Scotia had kept an open door for his Province’s withdrawal from Confederation, because it was thought 'hctter to ‘rade with the United States than with the rest of Canada. Especially to them, there- fore, the new transcontinental railway scheme was a confirmation of the abandonment of the reciprocal idea; and their assertion of the Fiscal Inde- pendence of Canada was consequently all the more definite and clearcut. POINTS ABOUT THE NINE It could only be because some con- dition that formerly affected the re- lations of Canada with the United States had undergone a change. What was it? You may search the records of the times in vain for the slightest proof that. there had been any ques- tion between the two countries which could be a factor in Canada‘s embarka- tion on a vast commercial enterprise, except oneâ€"â€"~and that was the ques- tion of reciprocity. _ ‘â€"--G v; m Jul. way that was not {6 approach the United States border line?

There had been an immigration from Canada to the United States. Gradualiy it dawned upon discerning people that the incoming Canadians “ere fewer and fewer and that manufacturers were beginning to talk about their branch plants in Canada. And, in a little While, good farmers began to go north on trips that led them to sell their farms and take carloads of stock and implements away up to the Sas‘ hatchewan countm. - - The United States grew accustomrd to answering Canadian seekers after reciprocity with cold water and a few civil words, and continued to beiieve that Canada. being only a country 0f woods and wastes and waters, would surely seek the shelter of the United States. Nothing more remarkable in inter- national trade has ever been seen than the complete change in regard to rec-i- procity that has.occurred in Canada and in the United States.

Mr. Richard Grigg, in a re- port issued April lst, 1911, states that Consider the investment of and as an effect, of that dec offiir Wilfrid Laurier. The connection between the immi- grati‘on of British people and the im~ migration of. lritish money is clear. Money follows people, as trade follows the flag. People will not continue to come if their friends send bad ac~ counts of how they are getting,r along. Money will not continue to come if the earning power of that which has been sent is weakened, and especially if there is a failure in the under- taking which the Government said is part of the fundamental commercial policy of the nation, and if that failure 'is even partially attributable to the substitution of a foreign country for the inter-Imperial trade on which the Prime Minister has declared “We set our hopes." See how it works in immigration, without which our lands and other natural resources availed us little, and the absent-e of which had much to do with the old-time desire for Recipro- city. In 1910, over a hundred thou- sand people came to Canada from the British Islands. A poll of them would show that one of the chief reasons why they are here is that this is a British country. all the same; and it has had a good deal to do with the expansion of mod- ern Canada. on the borrower to do more than earn and pay the interest on his borrow- jugs.

There are two dominant reasons why the Government’s predictions about its great railway should be rea- lized, both of which make the earning capacity of the railway a matter of extraordinary importance to the Cana- dian pe0ple.

The President, of course, used extremely diplomatic language, but he could not help showing themltimae The utmost expected was a few un- important changes, sufficient to save the President’s face once more. The agreement was disclosed simultan- eously at Ottawa and Waghington. To everybody’s surprise, it was seen that not merely the President's face, but his whole body had been saved. A prospect had been opened up to the United .States which put the Payne. Aldrich Bill into the shade, and turned public contemplation towards the natural resources of Canada. In Canada a preponderance of Opin- ion had declared against any subs at; tial concession to ‘ nited Sta es senti- ment. For instwante, Senator Sir George W. Ross, the Liberal ex-Prezn- ier of Ontario, in a very able speech, contended that Canada did not need a reciprocity treaty, and declared that any pmposals should be made “as openly as if they were submitted to Parliament.” paid a return \ sit and made the a meat in Washington without (:0; back to Ottawa to consult their leagues. In the fall of 1910, two emissaries went to Ottawa from Washington and conferred with the Dominion Govern- ment with a View to making a Recipro- city Agreement. When the year-had turned, Mr. Fielding and Mr. Paterson Canadian Representatives Saved His Whole Body, Instead of Face On!y, as Expected POINTS ABOUT THE DEAL. fOURTEEN [0 ML? PRESIDENT IAN There was another reason. Con- gress had planned a blow at Canada which it left the President to deliver, and which he did not want to deliver. Canada had made a family preferen- tial trading arrangement with Great Britain; which had operated for thir- teen years as an equalizer of the ad- vantage enjoyed by the United States manufacturers on account of their close proximity to the Canadian mar- ket. As a blow against British Pre- ference on this continent, Congress devised a maximu’m tariff which the President must enforce, whenever it appeared that any country gave to its allies something it did not give to the United States. The President turned to Reciprocity with Canada as a means of relieving everybody. Ft would relieve the Pre si- ‘dent of the worsening incubus of the JPayne’Aldrich 'l‘arii'f Bill, would re- lieve the consumer of his sense of 0p- pression, and it would relieve Canada of the natural resources whose enor- fmous value was beginning to be ap- preciated in the United States. In fulness of time this new song reached Washington, and a President who was in sore distress because his people hated a tariff bill which he had described as the best ever, and complained, like the children of lsraeh that it. was getting harder and harder to live.and that they must be relieved of the afflictions of the trusts and .combines. A few years ago Canada began to look like a promised land to the peo- ple across the border. Men began to say that the statesmanship which first gave and then took away Reciprocity, and then aggravated the taking away, was not statesmanship at allâ€"it was dog-gone foolishness. Nothing like this had ever been said about the United States statesmanshipn-in the United States. A call arose for access to Canada, by offering Canada access to the United States, by a return to the Reciprocal idea formally abjured by Canada.
