enlargement, and in spite Of obsta-
cles aud Disadvantages, and slight
favoring circumstances might open
up for Us large possibilities in our
relations with young English-speak-
ing peoples whose foreign commerce
already exceeds S50O,OOO,OOO per
year. The total tonnage entered
and cleared at New Zealand ports in
1885, exclusive Of coasters, was /, 032,-

by sail with Europe. It might very

The stimulus which American do
nestle and nearby foreign com
merce Will receive from the safe and
sure progress of an inter oceanic
canal toward completion, the natural
increase, in six years, Of all the
classes Of trade within the zone Of
attraction Of the canal, and the fair
probability Of additions from the
European traffic by sail with Japan,
New Zealand, FIJI and the South
Pacific groups, should render it safe
to predict a total tonnage Of six to
six and half millions for the Nicar-
aqua Canal in 1894.

THE SURPLUS.

"While the Treasury surplus is not
the greatest evil confronting the
country, it Is a serious evil. Our
revenue should be ample to meet the
ordinary annual demands upon our
Treasury with a sufficient margin for
those extraordinary but scarcely less
imperative demands which arise now
and then. The expenditure should
always be made with economy and
only upon public necessity. Profit
gacy and favoritism IN public expen-
ditures is criminal. There IS no
thing in the condition of our cOun-
try or our people to suggest that
anything presently necessary to pub
lie prosperity, security or honor
should be unduly postponed. It viii
be the duty of Congress wisely to
forecast and estimate these eXtraOr-
binary demands, and, having added
them to our ordinary expenditures,
so to adjust our revenue laws that
no considerable annual surplus viii
remain. We will fortunately be able
to apply TO the redemption Of the
public debt any small or unforeseen
excess of revenue. This Is better
than to reduce our income below our
necessary expenditures with the re-
sulting choice between another
change Of our revenue laws and an
increase Of the public debt. 1t is
quite possible, I am sure, to effect
that necessary reduction in our rev
enues without breaking down our
protective tariff or seriously injuring
any domestic industry"

SAMOA WILL BE PROTECTED.

at must not be assumed, how
ever, that our interests are so eXclu-
sively American that our entire mat
tentiOn to any events that may trans
pIre elsewhere can be taken for
granted. Our citizens, dOmiciled for
purposes of trade in all countries
and IN many of the islands of the
sea, demand, and viii have our ade
quate care IN their personal and
commercial rights. The necessities
of our navy require convenient coal
ing stations and dock and harbCr
privileges. These and other trading
privileges we will feel free to obtain
only by means that do not IN any de-
gree partake Of coercion, however
feeble the government from which
we ask such concessions; but, having
obtained them by fair methods and
for purposes entirely consistent with
the most friendly disposition toward
all other powers, our consent will be
necessary to any medication or i'm
pairment of the concession. We
shall neither fail to respect the flag
of any friendly nation or the lust
rights of its citizens, nor to exact
like treatment of our own. Calm
ness, justice and consideration should
characterize our diplomacy. The
Offices of intelligent diplomacy or
friendly arbitration in proper cases,
should be adequate to the peaceful
adjustment Of all international diff
culties. By such methods we will
make our contribution to the worlds
peace, which no nation values more
highly, and avoid the opprobrium
which must necessarily fall upon
nation that ruthlessly breaks it."
HANDS OFF PANAMA.
I'VE have happily maintained 4
policy of avoiding all interference
with European affairs. We have
been only interested spectators of
their contention in diplomacy and in
war, and ready to use our friendly
offices to promote peace, but never
obtruding our advice and never at
tempting unfairly to coin the dis
tresses of other powers into CONNER
cial advantages to ourselves. We
have a just right to expect our Euro

cautions for our peace and safety
which all great powers habltuaIIy
observe and enforce IN matters al
fecting them. that a shorter water
way between our eastern and western
sea-boards should be dominated by
auv European government, that we
may confidently expect that such a
purpose viii not be entertained by
any friendly power. We shall N the
future, as IN the past, use every en-
deavOr to maintain and enlarge our
friendly relations with all great
powers; but they will not expect Us
to look kindly upon any project that
would leave as subject 10 dangers Of
hostile observation or environment.
We have not sought to dominate or
absorb any of our weaker neIghbors,
but rather aid and encourage them
to establish a free and stable govern
ment, resting upon consent Of the
people We have a clear right to
expect. therefore, that no European
government will seek to establish
colonial dependencies upon the terri
tory Of these Independent American
states. That which the sense Of jus
tice restraints US from seeking, they
may be reasonably expected willingly
to foregO."
THE NAVY.
The construction of a sufficient
number Of modern war ships and
their necessary armament should
progress as rapidly as IS consistent
with care and perfection IN plans
and workmanship. The spirit, cour-
age and skill of our naval officers
and seamen have many times in our
history given to weak ships and in
efficient guns a rating greatly be-
yond that of our naval list. That

AMERICAN STEAMSHIPS.
I'VE should encourage the estab-
lishment of American steamship lines
and the exchange of commerce. The
demand Of the states Is for reliable
and rapid means of communication,
and until these are provided the de-
velopment Of our trade with states
lying south Of US is impossible"
