Wheat Exports and Protection.

The democratic argument that under
free trade our market abroad would be
enlarged is one of the most venerable
OF untruths. IL is not true that a ma.
ton can not trade unless it exchanges
products. From 1Si7 to 1861 was
free trade period. During these Is
years imports exceeded exports by
$43l 900, 0O0--there was certainly no
exchange in that and the foreign mar
ket must have been very limited. Blu:
take an equal period under protection
from 1876 to IS90-during that time
exports exceeded imports, and that by
81, $40, AS, 226 In single year
under prntec.ion, Major Mckinley
stated in Il recent speech, more wheat
went out OF this country than during
all of the fifteen years from 1916 to
1870. This does not show that pro-
lection restricts the foreign market,
There are five years under protection
-1S79, 80, 81, 'S2 and 81 during
each and every oae of which
the United States exported more
wheat to Europe than from the time of
Washington to Abraham Lincoln
These facts do not show that protec-
ton has restricted the for eign market.

Reciprocity.

The reciprocity treaty with San Do
mingo opens IA small but important
trade with the Uuited States. AT best
the amount cannot be large. San

lation OF this city. Single steamers
enter the New York harbor with car.
goes greater in value than our entirs
exports 10 San Domingo, and many
Saturday afternoon sees three or four
steamers go down New York harbor
with corgoes whole combined value Is
greater than our entire annual i'm
ports from the Dominican Republic.
But the value Of reciprocity treaty
is not TO be measured by dollars and
cents. A treaty with San Domingo
renders certain n treaty with Haiti.
With Cuba, Puerto Rico and the entire
island OF Haiti granting this country
concessions, it will be impossible for
the other West Indian Islands TO re-
fuse them. Reciprocity in the Gulf
and Caribbean Sea is now an assured
fact The United States can cripple
the trade OF any island which refuses
to enter the reciprocal commercial
union OF American lands centering
about tho United States. -Philadel-
