Protectionists Should Favor It
Finally, there is one fact that should have
great weight, especially with protectionists,
Every free trader in the senate voted agninst
the reciprocity proposition. The free trade
papers throughout the eountry are showing
determined hostility to it. It is evident that
the free trade senators and the free trade
papers have a specific reason for their course.
They know and feel that with a system of
reciprocity established and growing, their
policy of free trade receives a most serious
blow. The protectionist who opposes recipe
rocity in the form in which it is now pre.
sented Knooka away one of the strongest sup.
ports of his aysten. The enactment of recip.
rocity is the safeguard of protection. The
defeat of reciprocity is the opportunity of
free trade, Yours very respectinlis,
