The Republicans aie quarreling among themselves ove. the authorship of the reciprocity clause in the McKinley tariff. It was known at the time who the author was.— Blaine was the man and he said that without reciprocity the McKiniey law would not provide a market for another bushel ot wheat or barrel of pork. Reciprocity is nothing more 'than fr.-e tiade in spots,and the more i eciprocal ti ade we can have with the nations of tne earth the greater and richer will our own nation become. The more goods we can sei abroad the more work for the mil lions of people coming to our shores. We now produce of farm products 25 per cant more than our own people can use. Ln manv lines of manufacturing our facilities for production are ample to produce a year’s supply 'll six months. The more reciprocity the more markets for our surplus productions. If the Republicans keep on as they are gun g now it will only be a few years until tliay will be quarreling among themselves as to who among them was the first to advocate free trade.—Logansport Pharos.
