The difference In cost of production va
ries In the different countries with whom
we trade." he said. "If the rule announced
by the last, republican platform Is the cor
rect one, then the only scientific manner
of dealing with this tariff question la to
perfect a trade agreement with each couo'
try. ...
Reciprocity, not only with Canada, bat
also with all of the western world and
etentually with the crowded peoples of the
old world, was the dream of James G.
Blaine.' He waa. the prophet of this move
ment which President Taft Insists shall be
given a practical' start. ,
There can be tittle doubt but that the
next aeeaae wm rind amicable and re- i
ciprocal agreements la force among many j
nations of the two m ericas.
I am for revtolng the tariff a schedule ,
at a tlrnt and a country at a time. So long
aa we all agree that the duty should be
measured by the difference In cost of pro
duction the duty must be different as to
countries because the cost of production
Is not ths same In all countries. Take
Canada, for instance. If we apply the rule
of fixing the duty by the cost of produc
tion we would have free trade with Can-
ana. iur ii cannot oe shown thst any
