duties are imposed upon agricultural product our market wul be flooded with American grain and meats and our fanners hopelessly ruined But they assert that they are ready for reciprocity wliich means the alHilition of the dutiee on agricultural product the moment the American are willing to grant it In other word our Tory rulers if we are to lielieve their own assertions are ready to expose the fanner to unrestrained competition and ruin him whenever the congress of the United States will permit them to do so think Canada wounTijv wnK(it hy a political union with the noighlmring republic We
