greater opportunities for me. at least, for
serving the country and for advancing
those views of public policy which we
agree in thinking essential to- its pros

to ask that you allow me to decline the

AMERICANS travelling abroad complain
that the only news from the United
States which finds its way into the col
umns of the press of foreign countries is
of a criminal nature. And, as a conse-
quence, foreigners, except the more intel
ligent class, have very erroneous idea OF
the civilization of the new world. In
European countries scandals and crimes
are mentioned only in the court calendar,
and then very briefly. In America the
meanest tramp that is choked to death
by legal halter has column telegraph
ed all over the country-iust how often
he kicked, and the words he uttered, and
the crazy acts of the mob which gather
ed upon such occasions. There is good
reason TO believe that the publicity given
to crime by American newspapers has
done much to foster it.

SPECULATORS are endeavoring to make
something out of the emigration Of ne
groes from the southern states by putting
up the price of cotton. The movement
seems to be slightly premature, for there
are thousands of colored people
in the border states who will move into
the ''cotton belt" whenever there is a de-
mand for their labor that will insure them
good pay. Up to this time the number
OF the emigrants from the south to Kan
sas is not sufficient to materially affect the
production of cotton or other southern

The Washington correspondent of the
Inter-Ocean sends that paper compar-
alive statement of importations into this
country from 1921 to 1873, from which
We take the following: In 1921 the to-
tai value of merchandise imported into
the United States from foreign countries
was only $54,520,S35. These were the
days of homespun. This is the lowest
amount of imports recorded for any one
year. The highest amount imported
was in 1873, the aggregate in that year
reaching $642, 136,21O. In 1888 the
amount of merchandise imported reached
100000, 900; it gradually increased year
by year until 1851, when itreached $780,
100000; then more rapid increase COM
menced, and imports jumped to $780,
had 100000 in 1856. Ten years later they
reached $454, 100000 and in 1S71-2-3-4-5
they were very large, running five and
six hundred millions. In 1876 there was
a falling off, which has continued until
1873, when the total value of imports
was $437, 051 ,532. By examination of
the tables for each year. it will be noticed
that the falling off within the last six
years, from 1873 to 1873, inclusive, has
been confined principally to few arti-
of merchandise, the manufacture of
which has been during the same years
rapidly growing in the United States,
and to the luxuries which the people of
this country have been compelled to
forego during the "hard times" The
falling off from 1873 to 1873 has been
over $2O5, 100000.

rightly. for, upon returning to the office
he found an order from the New York

largest single subscription ever made to

surprised, and to make sure there was no
mistake, he had the message ordering
them repeated, and it came back $40, 0OO,-

came pouring in from the Eastern and
Northern cities, until in less than hour
enough more were sold to pay for every

Immediately issued call for the entire

telegraphed in every direction that no
more subscriptions to the As would be
received upon existing terms. Notwith-
standing this, about $25, 900 more of

to receive, as he long ago gave notice that

WILL END IN TALKs

The citizens OF Detroit seem, at last.
to be thoroughly aroused upon the neces-
si.y of doing something to prevent being
left out in the cold and made a way
station, or rather station on a side
branch Of the great railroad thorough
fare from the East to to the West. Last
week an enthusiastic meeting was held in
the handsome Board of Trade rooms of
that city, and, as is usually the case
when important interests Of our metrop-
oils are at stake, an immense amount of
talking was done, string of whereases
and resolutions adopted, &c. A number
of the speakers took strong grounds in
favor of Sridge, and here. we think,
is one great reason for believing that the
whole matter will end i'm talk. When
prominent citizens of city, men who
should have naught but her future well
fare at heart, entirely ignores plan
upon which every interest could be
united, if it was not for their folly, the
sincerity of their purposes is liable to be
questioned. Mr.. Philo Parsons said "that
twenty-five years ago the northwestern
water courses were pathways OF COM
merce; but even then it was said that one
day these waters would be only valuable
for sanitary purposes. That day had
nearly arrived. The maritime int rests
would no longer be permitted to control
the great railroad interests" Where such
men as Mr.. Parsons thus disparagingly
speak of the great maritime interests of
the great lakes is it TO be wondered that
the antagonism of that interest should
be aroused.
If Detroit is dcsirious of future pros
perity, ii strikes us that the wisest thing
to be done would be to harmonic all her
interests that all might work unitedly.
1t may be that Mr.. Parsons is correct,
and that the time has arrived when these
magnificent lakes are only valuable for
sanitary purposes. but we think he will
have difficult time in convincing the
people that such is the case. He will, we
think, find that this great interest of the
past contains considerable vitality yet,
and will not calmly submit to having
the great natural highway INSTRUCTED by
a bridge at Detroit or elsewhere.
We may be wrong, but it looks to us
like it would be wisdom for all to unite
upon the construction of tunnel under
the river. Its feasibility, We believe, is
not questioned, and it certainly would
afford every advantage without any OF
the objectional features of bridge.
There was one favorable fea-
ture of the meeting referred to. and that
was the raising of money for preliminary
expenses, the sum of SLOTS being SUBJ
scribed in very short time.

by overtaXation, has now terminated, but
has left disastrous consequences Ii
similar taxation continues, another par
