Chicago, March 1. Sir Donald Mann
in an open letter to a Chicago asso
ciate in the building of the Canadian
Northern railway declares for the re
ciprocity program between the United
States and Canada. He said: i
"I do not say that the people (over
60 per cent of our -total population)
who are engaged in producing are the
greatest in the country, but they cei
tatnly are engaged in the work ot
latest benefit to the nation the ere
ation of wealth.
"The products of the farm, of the
sea, and of the mine are entitled to
especial consideration. Nor should
the lumbermen t overlooked. Tim
ber Is & crop which rlrtpnu. nrf "V?
be reaped. If it la not It deterior
ates. He who cuts down one ripe
tree and plants one more In its plac?
is a producer of wealth.
"If we have seven or eight millions
of people in Canada, with a free mar
ket for $he producer, and to that num
ber we add the 93 millions of the
United States, we are assisting the
most important Industries in Canada.
"Next in Importance to the producer
comes the manufacturer and It Is U
duty of the government to provide
Increased mark facilities for both.
The United States has ceased to ex
port cattle and may soon. cease to ex
port" wheat. The balance between
production and consumption is draw
ing nearer adjustmnt If it were
possible to prevent grain from going
south, without injury to the producer,
I would say avoid a treaty or other
reciprocal arrangement, but it Is be
yond our power to hold our wheat
within British territory. The Uniteu
States can remove the tariff when
ever it suits her convenience to do
so, without consulting us.
"with regard to the exoort of the
wheat crop. Canada will have her owu
lines of railway across the continent
as well as . ships upon the sea. This
will ennh'e them to take grain for
export from producer to the consumer
witnout any at vision or rates, ana.
In the same way, manufactured goods
as return cargoes from the producer
to the consumer In the west. On
the Other hand, going south through
the United States, wheat for expoiv
would have to pass over three pr four
lines of railways, and thence by va
dependent vessels to European mar
kets. This through rate, which Is
necessarily low, would be divided be
tween three or four transportation
companies, making It impossible to
compete with Canadian through Jines
Depend upon it. Canadian railways
handling natural products of tht west
for export will retain the traffic on
tneir own. tracicsana in tneir own
vessels to destination.
"Personally I would prefer to have
e. preference between the United King
dom and the Dominion, and between
the Dominion ard other colonics
This preference should be increased
from time t. o time, until, say in 25
years, the coBt of production would
reach a common point throughort the
Emolre. Tlrn we would be able to
have free .trade wlth'n, the Empire
and protection against non-British
nations." , ' '.

, Chicago, March 1. (Special) Who
will become that International figure
to Bucceed Senator Lorimer, if thi
toga be taken from him by the pres
ent Senate or the now Senate which
will come Into being March 4? This
is a problem that underlies not only
the Chicago mayoralty contests but
a hundred other issues. The grow
ing, conviction that failure to unseat.
Lorimer, not only would create wide
spread" trouble for the ' republican
and also the democratic parties has
made the need of a successor who is
thoroughly trusted as to integrity anu
ability peculiarly Important. The
revelations concerning the patronage
and other inducement offered by for
mer Senator Hopkins, whom Senator
T "Hrr-r .cT..I. i rinnvri rum
from among the possibilities. Con
gressman George E. Foss was found
politically weak and former Senator
William E. Mason, whom Chicago
calls "Billy" Mason in much the same
way that the country calls Roosevelt
Teddy," may occupy the seat. His
strength with the labor unions ana ;n
th? rural counties is due to the popu
lar measures he sponsored in con
gress, rural free delivery, pure fooa
laws and the postal savings bank bill.
Whether he would leave a lucrative
law practice, his friends refuse toscy,
Republicans leaders recall, howevei
that In 1896 Mason debated the free
silver Issue with Bryan and won bacli
thousands of votes. He Is one of the
sturdy old-fashioned "spell binders"
and was the last senator from Illinois
whose elections never were attributed
to a "barrel."
Safety League to Work.
That . proposed railroad ' retrench
ments must not be at the expense in
safety of the public or employes is the
contention of the League for Public
Safety, the advisory board of wh:cn
will m-et In Chicago soon. The de
cision against rate advances called
forth statements from railroad execu
tives that expenses would be cut.
President Bear, or the Philad lphla
& Reading said: "There will be a
curtailment of railroad expenditures
and if the result shall be to bring
about a general reduction in wages
and in material and supplies. In the
end the railroads will suffer no mor
than the general public. "Some of
the roads have betrun retrenchment
In previous cases by reducing track
Inspection and lessening other safe
guards against accidents and wrecks.
Reducing the wreck wast' is one of
the most fruitful f'elds for railroad
managers who need more net earn
ings, according to the bulletin or w
League. Only 30 per rnt of tne
roads have advanced beyond the "twin
order" system Inaugurated when the
telegranh came into use In 1845. Those
which hav adonted signal safeeuards.
such as thp Hrriman lines. hv very
ereatly reduced accidents and Iopp or

movement and revenue per day over
their tracks.
