WASHINGTON: SS Ministers Macdonald and Bowell are making desperate attempts to prove that the govern- ment party in Canada are willing, even anxious to secure @ liberal reciprocity with ‘the United States. Their pretentions do not accord, by any means, with their arguments when sifted. They denounce the liberal posi- tion as treasonable on the ground thet unre- stricted reciprocity may levi eventually to an- nexation. They present the bugaboo of a foolish charge of treason to frighten the Cana- dian voter into rejecting a business proposi- tion that is inir, advantageous and in accord- ance with modern progress. There is consid- erable doubt on this side of the line as to which policy tends more strongly to bring about annexation, reciprocal trade with- out political union. or retention of the trade barrier until it m removed by political union. ‘There is good reason for contending that the Canadian who iabors to keep the Dominion in ‘the disadvantageous commercial position which it occupies by treating commercial union and political union as practically equivalent is a more effective worker for annexation and by consequence more of & traitor than the Cana- dian advocate of trade reciprocity. For eventi- ally Canada must and will have the latter. while political union is not +0 important to her, is not so mneh desired, and does not promise to be accompliched in the immediate future un- less it is made the inseparable accompaniment of the commercial union, which is inevitable. ‘The Canadian advocates of reciprocity ure in a position to “hurl back the charge of treason into their defamers' teeth” with great dramatic effeet. —— The elections bill and the free coinage project continue to perform each toward the other the offices of Kilkenny ‘There is between them reciprocity in destruction. The former was knocked ont to make way for the latter. The latter cannot now be pushed without reviving the former, and the ghost of the elections bill ob- structa free coinage. Are the democrats who have “fought, bled and died” to stave off the measure that would “stop the wheels of prog- ress in the southern states for at least a quar- ter of acentury,.” now ready for the sake of paltry silver to put theit own shoulders to the aforesaid «heels? Mr. Dingiey's proposed little amendment to the rules whereby the elee- tions bill could be tacked to one of the appro- priation measures is a Roland for Mr. Bland’s Oliver. If the silver men are to press their rider then the elections bill men are to imitate Wx H. McKszws Dany Lerren.

Mr. Fland and the southern silverites want both silver free coinage and the continued sleep of the elections measure. Either they will have to take renewed consider- ation of the elections bill or the delay of free coinage. They cannot have their cake and eat it. It will be difficult to force a republican majority to submit to more than one great de- feat in a session. It will be most advantageous for the business interests of the country to lay free coinage on the sifelf with the elections bill. —_» +e The copyright bill fared badly yesterday. It is earnestly hoped that some time or other the American Congress can be induced in both’ its branches at the same time to see the wisdom of justice to the authors. The most serious ob- jection to the Senate's action of yesterday is that the adoption of the lithographers’ amend- mentat this stage in the session jeopardizes the passage of the measure. ‘The national pean over reciprocity achieved shakes the solid Americas. To those acid- minded erisies who recall the fact that it re- quired some effort to secure the adoption »? the reciprocity :mendment to the tariff bill it ix suggested that there is now nor:> #0 poor ar to fail to do it reverence. Reciprocity is seated astride of America; politics and ite hold on the reins is the grip of mastersbip. ee An important change in the German colonial policy has been outlined by the chancellor. Hereafter measures in contempiation to settle Africa will be taken after consultation and in concert with Great Britain. This isa nullifi- cation of the late Bismarckian program, and | notice to the world that Germany is not going as extensively as was supposed into the coloniz- ing basinesa, ——iaonnigngea a It im said that 46,000 or more Canadians fought in the Union army during the rebellion, many of whom were killed or wounded, and it is from the survivors that most of the annexation agitation comes. Ix it possible that annexa- tion is another pension scheme? - So ‘One line that may be drawn on the national democratie candidacy of Senator Gorman is Mason and Dixon's line. He was born on the wrong side of it, but near enough to hang his shirt on it, when as a boy he went swimming in the streams “green walled by the hills of Maryland.” ee Democratic leaders ought to make the south at lest doubtful. so that a southern man might have acharce at national office. As it now stands the south is too solid to need any- thing to keep it im the traces. pentose enn Mr. Jobu C. New in London denies that he has been asked to the Secretaryship of the ‘Treasury, but inadvertently and innocently winds up bis interview with the statement that Le is opposed to free coinage. If the Washington correspondents have con- censussed am opinion that Mr. Crisp is to be the next Speaker of the House. then Mr. Crisp will be Speaker awl further debate is unneces- sary and irrelevant. ee If it be true that ex-Senator Ingalls ean make 100,000 4 vear by bix pen and otherwise, why doem't he doit for two senatorial terms and resume business at the old stand as « million- aire Senator’ + The F.M.
