"It promises prosperity to the people
of Canada, ami this house would muko
a grave mistake, and do a grave wrong
If It refused to take advantage of it.
Will l?o Their Port.
"I have very strong hopes that Pres?
ident Taft will be able to oVercome
the opposition at Washington, but
whether he succeeds or not. we In
Canada will do . our part, and by so
doing will Had our position stronger
foi ail future negotiations."
"The reciprocity measure is so far
reaching." declared Mr. Borden, oppo?
sition leader, "that no man can tell
what It- consequence will be. For
forty years we have been seeking and
the United States has been .denying
reciprocity. And now. when their nat- {
nra) resources of timber, minerals and
Agriculture arc being overtaken by the j
demands of their population, they turn
to us." I
Some of the results of the agreement,
which Mr. B?rden foresaw were the
abandonment ><t the British markets
which Canada had built tip with effort;
and treasure for forty years, the I
growth of commerce with the Unttea
Statesi which would eventually lead to
commercial union with that country.,
lb summed up the opposition- position j
by declaring that Canada should fol?
low the paths she is now trending
without regard to the United States,
whoso favor ? to-day might be with?
drawn to-morrow.
AS WILSON SEES IT
Sccretnry of Vgriculture Tell* Grnnnc
Reciprocity Is .Needed.
Washington, D, C., February ft.?
"The pending reciprocity treaty with
. mada will go seme distance towards
meeting the demands of the people at j
the list election without interfering
with the policy of protection as ap?
plied to tin- whole world." j
This Is the declaration of .lames Wil- .
son"; Secretary of Agriculture, in an j
answer n!1 behalf of the Taft admin-1
I shall on to the National Orange's de-|
clared ' opposition to the proposed |
agreement. The answer is in the form
61 p. open letter, made public to-night,
addressed to the legislative commit- !
tec <>:' the National Crange; Concord, I
N> II. I
Secretary Wilson argues that the cost !
of production in the United States aha
Canada is more nearly identical than
it Is between the United States and any
other country; that the samo difficul?
ties with regard to farm labor exist on 1
both sides of the international line,
and that Canadian and American farm?
ing methods are virtually the same.
Election Demand.
"Our town population has grown
much faster than our country popu?
lation." writes Secretary Wilson.
"Prices for the necessities of life
have been high, and wages, stipends
ami salaries have not kept pace with
the increase in the price of food. There
::,<?? a demand for lower tariffs during
the. last election by the population of
the towns. That interest carried the
? election by default; the farmer either
sympathized with the town dweller or
he staved at home on election day and
! husked corn. A new Congress was
; elected along lower tariff tines, if it
had any instructions from the people.
.The Republican party is a protection-;
".'1st party; the Democratic party wants
"revenue tariffs.
": ?There is quite an element In the
'Democratic party that believes in pro?
tection, and there always has been, and
. that may be the reason why that patty
favors this reciprocity treaty. That
element in the Democratic party may bo
willing to go as far as this reciprocity
treaty- goes in letting the natural pro?
ducts of Canada into the United States,
and that may be as far as a great many
people in Congress and out of it think

"This treaty is not one-sided, giving |

Canadians, with nothing in return. Wo'
get in the Canadian woods. 90,000.000
or more of us, for timber products
things very much needed, as o?r home
supplies are so much reduced that
prices have gone up markedly In the
last few years, and our development in
the future will draw heavily on what
remains. Much building has halted on
this account. The Southern States
have a new market for their cotton?
seed oils, which will be valuable to them.
Canada opens her doors to our fruits,
which will give to our orehardlsts a
growing market for their products.
Fish comes Into the United States free,
which will mean quite as much to our
people as the opening of our markets j
to Canadian poultry products. We are
to have free trade in seeds, which Is
well, because many seeds are more val?

??Reciprocity with Canada must bo
considered from a viewpoint somewhat
different from .hat of a tariff act af

"There is just as much opposition in
localities there now to letting in Amer?
ican manufactured goods at lower rates
as there Is in localities on the American
side to letting in Canadian farm pro?
ducts at lower rates or without duty,
ilf this reciprocity treaty becomes one
of th( laws f,f both countries, our rela?
tions with Canada will become inti?
mate, and our trade with her will ex?
tend and increase."
Secretary Wilson concludes that If
the United States handles Canada's sur?
plus wheat. American transportation
facilities will tend to reduce the price
of bread to the American consumer.
He suggests that the Canadians also
will he able to furnish cattle feeders
for the com belt of the United States,
find that meals will be reduced in prices
by the activities of the American
ram-her and homesteader.
"These coi{slderalions," says Mr. Wil?

the conclusion thai the adoption of the
Pending reciprocity treaty would, from!

an act of wisdom as was the adoption]

Health Department Could Care
f<_?r More Patients Who
Want Treatment.
NEW INFANTRY COMPANIES
State May Secure Portion of
Unallotted War Depart?
ment Funds.
In view of the increasing demand
for accommodations at the State San?
atorium at Catawba, the State Health
Department is rather hoping to hear
of donations from Philanthropie persons
to permit of the erection of additional
pavilions. Although the capacity has
within the past two months been
tripled, the institution is full, and there
is a waiting list of about thirty. Some
of these lives will probably be lost as
the result of the necessary delay.
Cures of tuberculosis are necessarily
slow, and for this reason vacancies n''e
nol frequent. It follows thai many of
those who are willing to help them?
selves by paying part of the cost of
their maintenance and treatment, or
who have friends who will pay for
them, must go without taking the cure.'
The appropriation for new buildings
has been exhausted. But if some per?
son or some group were to build pavil?
ions, the Slate Health Department could
probably take care of the rest of the!
expense. As the attendance increases,
the per 'capita of cost constantly de?
creases, and with the appropriation'for
maintenance, supplemented by the pay
ments from patients, the department
can care for more patients than it now
has. A pav'l'on, built and ready, for
use, with a capacity of sixteen, costs
approximately $3,200.

the policy of Adjutant-General Sale to

and that the regiments should be com?

In addition to the new company at
Reesbttrg, which is almost ready to be

twelve companies in the First Regi?

allowed to organize commands at Bris?

them for four years. 1 tried three

While months will elapse before the county
elections enough candidates have come out
to promise a warm campaign. The fight for
