With two or three exceptions, these articles,
it will be noticed, are manufactures, and
therefore the most profitable of all goods 10
export, because they embody the greatest
amount of American capital and American
labor. The list above might be extended.
Other manufactures which show handsome
gain in the values exported, though the totals
ore smaller, are: Agricultural implements,
IS per cent; beer, ale and porter, II per cent;
flour, 80 per cent; carriages, carts, ETC., 81
per cent; glass and glassware, 20 per cent;
cartridges, 20 per cent; paper, % per cent;
household furniture, 60 per cent. In the
table two of the largest items are machinery
and iron goods, which are an expression of the
tai are being invested in Mexico. The same
story is told by the quicksilver and gun pow
der exported. But other items have advanced
by large percentages. Thus, the exports of
cotton increased Fl per cent, of cotton goods
22 per cent, of coarse lumber 40 per rent, of
sewing machines 81 per cent. The gain in
machinery was 40 per cent, and in other iron
products I34 per cent. The aggregate exports
of 1880 81 were So, l9S,o77, as against Sc,
o65, 964 in 1879 SO.
Here, then, is one country which the United
States has never cultivated the friendship of,
but yet in which, by energy and persistence, it
increases its sales one:half in a single year,
and that, too, in spite of hostile tariffs Our
merchants and manufacturers have shown
what they can do. 1t is for their interest, as
we'll as for the glory of their country, to con
tnue the process. All Central America and
South America country now almost de-
tendency of Europe-lies before them, vr-
gin soil. The record of trade with Mexico is
peculiarly gratifying, because it shows that,
wi seve, al most important classes of goods,
our manufacturers can GO into a neutral mar
ket and pick up trade in face of the COMPETE
ton of Great Britain itself. If they can do
this now, they have only to make every pro-
cess of their industries as cheap as possible,
and the finished product therefore cheap, to
force in time the British traders from the west
ern hemisphere.
Our imports from Mexico in the year in
question increased IS per cent, or from ST.
2o9, s93 to SS,3I7So2. The gain in fee
goods was 1863 per cent, in dutiable, - per
cent, the former constituting over three-6fths
of the whole. The largest items were hides
and coffee, free, and raw jute, dutiable Mex
leo would quickly admit many of our manu-
features duty free, if we would take her fruits,
sugar, jute and wool in exchange.

More Hotel Accommods atoms.

Whenever our city is called upon 70 enter
tain an extra number of guests, as IS the case
in the prospective assembling of the Odd Eel
lows on next Monday, when some four hun
dred visitors will be here, our lack of ample
hotel accommodations becomes painfully APP
parent. In order to entertain these people,
private residences will have to be thrown open
for their entertainment.
But the most serious result from lack of
ample hotel accommodations is not noticed by
the general public, and that is the arrival and
sudden departure of hundreds of people who
come here to spend the season, but who are
so poorly accommodated that they remain
only few hours.
Everything must be in keeping in order to
make our city an attractive and pleasant place
to live in to people who come from abroad.
The muddy streets, the miserable sidewalks,
the unsightly squares, the lack of public drives,
the crowded hotels, all contribute to bill OF
discomforts too great for the average traveller
and tourist to put up with.

TRADE WITH MEXICO,

The St. Louis Globe-Democrat, in
reviewing the remarkable increase of
the trade between the United States
and Mexico, introduces the fact with
the assertion:
The Mexican boom has to some extent spent
itself. Investors, particularly the builders Of
railroads, have found that the much-revolu-
tionized republic is not new Ell Dorado.
Nevertheless traffic between the United States
and Mexico has increased so much during the
last two years and half, in spite of stiff tar
ifs on both sides of the line, that the move
ment for reciprocity treaty has gained con-
siderable Roadway.
And further on says:
1t took long time to get our manufacturers
awake to the fact that good market lay to
the south of them. Three years ago England
almost monopolzed the Mexican commerce.
That country still has good lead, but the
United States is beginning to get a foothold
The astonishing expansion of our exports to
the "sister republic" since 1879 shows how
much can be accomplished by Yankee energy
when it exerts itself to remove obstacles. The
exports from this country to Mexico in the
last fiscal year were over 50 per cent greater
$40 per cent. to be exact-than in the year
before. This is both astonishing and encour-
aging. Here are some of the chief items Of
exports in the two years.
