TUFT'S ADVICE
President Opposes Change
in Proposed Reciprocity
Agreement.
CANADA GOT ALL SHE ASKED
Taft Sj Proposal Placing of Mv-e
Canadian Article on Frr List
Would 'ot Aid Consumer and
but Hamper Government.
rCnnttno-d rrora First Psce.
th already lartte Car.aJlan dvniami for
thm
Vm tendered to th Canadian com
mlsstoners absolute, free) trade In all
product of either eoantry. tnanufac
tared or natural, but the Canadian com
itiluioiuri did not frei Justified In
going ao far. It la only reasonable t
Inf.r therefore, that with wpwl t
those article! upon which th-y refuse
trmm trade to ui they fell that th
orofltable nrlce at whl.h thev could be
eolrt b our manufacturer. In Canada
was Irn than the price at whli-n theii
manufacturer could afford to aril the
uma -iih-r to their own reople or to ua.
"Hence It follow that their refusal
to acres to free trade In these articles
a we propoed la the strongest kind
f .violence that. If we should take
off the existing d'itjr from such, articles
eomlns Into the t nlted States. It wouaa
not affect In th sllKhtest deuree the
price at which those articles could be
famished to the public here.
Thitt the reason whr meata wera
m nut mi the free list In this Cana
dlan aareement was because Canada
felt that the competition of our pair
era would Inlurtnusty affect the prod
vctm of their packing houses. If that
tv. fm how would It help our on-
timer or lower the price of meat In
our mmrkeis if we let their meats In
free while thev retained a duly on
our meat?
The same thins; la true of flour.
nd yet some irentlemen Insist that the
firxfr has been unlustly treated oe-
rause we hare not put Canadian flour
and meal on the free list. And It is
proposed to satisfy the proposed
grievance of the farmer by now doing
a- without any compensating conce
elnns from Canada.
-This proposal would be legislation
pasd for polltlral platform uses.
without accomplishing any real good.
In another aspect, however, the ef
fect of the proposal might be serious.
Of course a mere reduction of our
tariff, or the putting of any article on
our free list without Insisting on a cor.
responding change In the Canadian
tariff, will not Interfere with the con
tract as made with Canada. Hat If
we do make concession without any
consideration on the part of Canada,
after the contract has been tentatively
agreed upon by those authorized to
make contracts for ratification In both
Governments, then we are In danger
of creating an obligation against us in
favor of all the foreign countries with
whom we have existing treaties con
taining what Is called the 'favored na
tion clause.
liars Tli row n Down to World.
"This clause la been construed by
our statesmen not to Involve ua In an
obligation to extend a privilege to all
nations which we confer upon one na
tion In consideration of an equally
valuable privilege from that nation.
Hut the s-rlous question would arise
whether, tf now that the contract has
been tentatively agreed upon and I
about to be confirmed by Canada, we
should grant to Canada more than the
contract requires, we could claim that
this extra concession was not a pure
gratuity and one which was necessar
ily extended to all ether nations under
the favored nation clause.
"There are two objections therefore to
Inserting In the bill confirm Ins this Ca
nadian contract additions to our free list
from Canada. The first ia that they are
a concession that Is of no value to those
whom it la proposed to propitiate by
adopting It: and the second la that It
may Involve us Indirectly In a doubtful
obligation In respect to trade with other
countries.
"If we desire to put meal and flour and
other commodities on the free lift for
the entire world, that la one thing:
and we ran do it with our ryes open and
with a knowledse of what It entails after
an Investigation. Hut to put such a pro
vision In a Canadian treaty and have It
operate aa a free list for the entire
world la legislation necessarily Ill-con
Mered.
Treaty Ioe Xo Injury.
"More than this, theae rroposed gratu
Itous concessions are In the nature of an
admission that In some way or other
we have done an Injury to a particular
clase by this Canadian reciprocity agree
menu I deny IL It Is said that It In
jure the farmers. I deny It.
"It la etrictly In accordance with th
protective principle that we should only
nave a protective tariff between us and
countries In which the conditions are so
dissimilar aa tJ make a Inference In the
coet of production. Now, It- la kno
of all men that the general conditions
that prevail In Canada are the aame aa
those which obtain In the United State
In the matter of agricultural products.
Indeed. If there I any advantage the
advantage Is largely on the side of the
i nlted Slate, because we hare much
greater variety of product. In view of
tat varieties of our climate, than they
ran have in Canada.
"U raise cotton as no other country
do-i Of course they raise Don In Can
ada. "We raise corn and hoca and cattle
fed on corn and. with the exception of a
small part of the acreage of Canada, la
Ontario. It la not poaelble to rata corn
at all in the I-omlnlon."
"VVIth rpect to wheat and barley and
oat, conditions differ In different part
of Canada and in different parta of th
I'ntted States. Classing them together,
on the whole the conditions are sub
stantlally th same. On the price of
farm land the differences are no greater
between Canada and the United States
than between the different states In the
United States. On the matter of farm
wage, on th whole, they are about th
aame.
Irloe Steadied. Sot I-owrrrd..
"It Is said that this Is an agreement
that affect agricultural products more
than manufactures. That la true, but If
we are to nave an Interchange of prod
uct a between the two countries of any
substantial amount, the chief part of It
must necessarily be In agricultural prod
wets. "As It Is. w export to Canada more
agricultural products than we receive
from her and so It will be afterwards.
The effect Is not going. In my Judgment,
to lower the specific prices of sgrt
cultural products In our country. It Is
going to steady them, and It Is going to
produce sn Interchange cf products st
a profit which will be beneficial to both
countries.
"If objection caa be mads to th
treaty on the ground that a particular
class derived less benefit from
any other class, then It Is the ma
turers of the country who ought to ob
Ject. because the treaty In its nature will
not enlnrge hU market as much as It will
that of the. farmer.
"I am aware that with some motive
or another, a great deal of effort and
money have been spent In sending circu
lars to farmers to convince them that
this ranaritan treatv. if n. 'tinted, will do
them injury- I do not know that It is
possible to silay such rears by argument,
pending the consideration of the treaty
by the Senate. '
"Hut there Is one way and that a
conclusive way of demonstrating the
fallacy, the unfounded character, of their I
fears, to the farmers or to any other
class thrtt believes Itself to be unlustly
affected bv this treatv and that la to i Fifth Week
try It on. I "Tlorenee
There Is no ohllgatM- on either "na
tion to continue the reciprocity arrange
ment any longer than It desires, and If
It be found by actual practice that there
la an Injury, and a permanent injury,
to the farmers of this country, everv
bodv knows that they can sufficiently
control legislation to bring about a
change and a return to the other condi
tions. These of ua who are responsible
for the Canadian treaty are willing and
anxious to subject It to that kind of a
test.
"Another and a conclusive reason for
closing the contract Is-the opportunity
which It gives us to Increase the sup
ply of our natural resources, which,
with the wastefulness of children, we
have wantonly exhuueted. The tim
ber resources of Canada, which will
oten themselves to us Inevitably, un
der the operation of this agreement.
are now apparently Inexhaustible and
we may derive ample supplies of tlm
ber from Canadian sources to the profit
of Canada and .for our own benefit.
There are other natural resources
which 1 need not stop to enumerate,
which will become available to us aa
If our own. If we adopt anil maintain
commercial union with Canada. . ,
But there are other even broade
grounds than this that should lead to
the adoption of this agreement. Can
ada's superficial area la greater than
that of the United Statea between the
oceans. Of course, it has a roxi oral
of waste land In the Far North, but It
has enormous tracts of unoccupied
land, or land settled so sparsely aa to
be substantially unoccupied, which In
the next two or three decades will rap
Idly acquire a substantial and valuable
population. Canada haa now between
.000.000 and 1.000.000 people. They are
v hearty, temperate, persistent race.
brave. Intelligent and enterprising.
. Tbey are good neighbors: we
could not have better neighbors. They
offer to any nation with whom they
have sympathetic relations and with
whom It Is profitable for them to deal
a constantly Increasing market and an
cver-lncreasintr trade.
As between Canada, and the United
States, the trade and the mutual bene
fit from th trade will Increase.
It Is amusing and 1 am not sura
hat It baa not aome elements of con
solation In It. to find that all the bun
combe and all of the exaggeration and
misrepresentation in polltlca and all of
he political ghosia are not confined to
our own country. There has entered
nto 'he discussion In Canada, as a
reason for defeating the adoption of
his contract by the Canadian Tarlla-
menu that we desire to annex the Io
mlnlon: the dreams of Americans with
responsible imaginations, who like to
talk of the stacxy flags floating from
Panama to the Pole, are exhibited by
the opponents of the Canadian treaty

Talk of Annexatloa Rosh.
I am not an antl-lmperlallst. but I
have had considerable experience In the
countries over which we have assumed
temporary control. I do not know
when that control will end, but I do
now that. In respect to those coun
tries, we have taken over heavy duties
nd obligations, the weight of which
ught to destroy any temptation to
further acquisition of territory.
It would be invidious to Institute a
comparison between the government of
Canada and this country, but there Is
one part of our Jurisdiction and that
of Cniiada that come together su Si
lently close to enable the Canadians
lid ourselves to realize that the sample
of government that we exhibit la not
llurlng. 1 refer to the control of
Alaska as compared with the control
by Canada of her northwest territory.
The talk of annexation Is bosh. Every
one who knows anything about It
realizes that It Is bosh.
Canada Is a great, strong youth,
nxtoua to teat his muscles, rejoicing In
he race lie la ready to run. The
United states has all It can attend to
It ti the territory It Is now governing.
and to make the possibility of the an
nexation of Canada to the United Statea
a basis for objection to any steps to
ward their greater economic and com
mcrcial union should be treated as one
of the jukes of the platform and should
not enter Into consideration of serious
men engaged In so sertous a problem.
"Why should we not have a closer
union with Canada? Think of the
absurdity of separating Manitoba and
Minnesota by as great a distance as
Manitoba and Liverpool when certain

ration socially and commercially should
only be that of their geographical dis
tance. "Canadians have furnished us a large
number of our best cltlsens. We are
giving them a large number of the

open the gateways between ua Let us
give to both countries the profit of the
trade that Ood Intended between us.
Let the political governments remain
as they are. Let us abolish arbitrary
and artificial obstructions to our asso
ciation with our friends upon the north
and derive the mutual profit that It
will certainly bring.
"The Canadian contract baa passed
the House substantially aa introduced
and In such form that If adopted In the
same way by th Senate. It would go
Into effect as soon as the bill now
pending In the Canadian parliament
shall be passed by that Parliament.
I desire to express my high appre
ciation of the manner In which the
present House of Representatives haa
treated tne reciprocity agreement. It
haa not 'played polltlca. It haa taken
the statesmanlike course In respect to
It. 1 am hopeful that the Senate will
treat the agreement In the aame way
and that no amendments there will be
added to the MIL For the reasons
given. I think they are dangerous.
"It may be that the Canadian con
tract does not go far enough. In
making It we were limited by the
reluctance of Canada to go as far aa
we would wish to have ber go. but
the fact that It does not go far enough
la the poorest reason for not going as
far as we can.
"We were making a contract, we
were balancing considerations; we
were not making a general tariff law
or a general tariff revision. it was
no part of our duty to reduce the tariff
generally In this contract with other
countries. If that la to be done anil
If there la a sincere desire to have It
done, then It ought to be done by sep

"I appeal to thla company, repre
senting as It does the press of the
Vnited States, to sea to It that It Is
made clear to the public that thla con
tract ought to stand or fall by Its own
terms and that Its passage or defeat
ought not to be affected In any regard
by other amendmenta to the tariff law.

for revision of the tariff, schedule by
