Ottawa; says: Before giving in detail the basis of the arrangement the Hon. Mr. Fielding, Finance Minister, on Thursday afternoon, asked „those' who had evinced opposition to the reciprocity= negotiations to give the results fair consideration, "I am persuaded," said .he, "that the gentlemen who on the public plat - Tform or in the press took such strong ground .against; our acholia did not give us the. benefit of their well -considered judgment, I appeal to them to revise that judgment," The character of the agreement and ad€ its wide scope may be adequately appreciated *heti it is stated that the reduction in taxation effected amounts to $2,,26O,000. Large eon- eessiona are given by the United tates; They provide fair reeipro- ca1 free trade in wheat, ba.rley, oats, luiy, vegetables, dairy pro- dhrets, live animals, coke, fruits, eggs and • poultry -these, being of the utmost iiuportanee to the Agri- cultural classes, who will benefit to the e; -`tent of millions of dollars annually.
