The long battle over Canadian reciprocity nears conclusion as the Senate plans to pass the bill by a decisive vote. Support crosses party lines, with most Democrats and many Republicans in favor, while insurgent Republicans and a few Democrats oppose.

Reciprocity Bill Shapes Next Presidential Campaign
Washington observers weigh how the Senate passage of the reciprocity bill will influence the 1909 campaign. Taft gains credit for victory but faces Republican dissent over the tariff measure, with many GOP senators voting to avoid a split that could aid Democrats. The party faces a dilemma at the convention over backing reciprocity beyond agriculture.
