As these changes took place there were protests from U. S. Manufacturers of goods affected thai Canada was violating the spirit of the reciprocity treaty. It would, no doubt, seem so to most of those engaged in the United States industries adversely touched by these increases of duties. There was nothing in the treaty nor in the negotiations on which it was based preventing either country from changing its tariff on goods not specified in the agreement; bul il is almost certain that il the manu...facturing interests !' the United States had known before hand that duties would be raised on what they had to sell in Canada they would not have favored the treaty. There is no evidence of any conscious bad faith on the part of the Canadian Government, and, after all the changes that had been made during- the life of the treaty, the tariff of Canada on those manufactures mainly affected was still lower by about 25 per cent, than that of the United States, so that if reciprocity was to imply equality of conditions the advantage was still on the side of the United States, especially when there was no industry in Canada, except lumbering, that was organized as well as in the Republic.
