Help the Military Organizations.


Is the legislature g7ing TO adjourn with

why it should lend tie mill airy organizs-

are now bearing the entire burden Of their

There are reasons for saying that it IS
very necessary that these organizations

There are good many things that the

The october Congress of Nations.

Inc OCIODeT congress OF AALAOHS-
IN October the congress of American ma
tons viii assemble in Washington. Il
promises TO be a very important congress.
Il Is certain that at least seventy delegates
from the Central and South American
continents will be present, the most of
whom will be prominent merchants.
The results OF the deliberations Of the con
greSs should be beneficial to us. We want a
larger share of the Central and South
Ameri an trade. We no1 buy annually
from those countries S1i9, 900 worth Of
their produ Is more than they buy Of ours.
We pay them this differences in gold.
We ought to have bulk of the Central
and South American trade, and would have

We have, however, no steamships worth
speaking running to &c trial and South
American countries. Nearly all our trade
with them is carried in foreign vessels, and
we pay these vessels annually in freigh.
charges 1896. 100000
Cannot this nditior OF affairs be
changedl 1t certainly ought t. be. The
Central and South American peoples are
yer friendly to us. They would rather
trade with us than with European coun-
tries. We must ma He it to their advantage,
however, to trade with us.
How can we make il to their advantagel
That question will be discussed in the APP
preaching congress. Our delegates wi
have some suggestions to make, and the
Central and South American delegates,
doubtless, will give us few hints that will
be valuable to u.s. One thing is
certain; we cannot control the trade
of those countries until we have provided
GU selves with the means for doing so. We
mus. have swift steamers from all our
principal por to the leading Central and
South American ports.
Our dispatches stated day or two ago
tnat France, Germany and England do not
regard with favor the approaching congress
OF American nations. The French and
German newspapers. particularly, are try
ing to create the impression that it has
political significance, and that it would
be well for their respective governments t.
Keep a close watch upon it. OF cou SO they
know that the congress will not NEEDLE
with politi al matters. They are afraid
that European countries are about to lose
the greater part of rich trade, and that
is why they are showing an ugl disposition.
1t IS matter OF no great cons tquence,
however, what they say. The America
nations are strong en- ,ugh to do what they
wish to with ut consulting the pleasure of
European governments.
