BUFFALO BILL.
The Big Show Has Bccn Enlarged, Altered
and Improved


and Improved.
The event in the amusement world
this year will be the advent of Buffalo
Bills Wild West. II is over eight years
since this great educational entertain
ment has been seen ia this vicinity.
and in those years it has had an eXpe-
rienCe and career uueQualled in the
worlds history.
IL has many times traversed the At
lantic; II was the browning feature at
the great carnival in London in COM
memoratiOn OF the fiftieth year of the
reign OF Queen Victoria; it disputed
with the Ethel tower the palm for in
terest and success at the Worlds Fair
in Paris in 1889; it traversed Europe,
crossed the Alps and the Pyrenees, and
c1mped beneath the walls of the Al
hambra and within the vast interior Of
the Colosseum at Rome. Princes, po-
tentates and powers have all been
guests at its table and have learned the
lessons of the conquest Of the New
World from The cOnquerOr and the con-
Quered.
The last of the red man and the last
OF Che BUFFALO the last Of the scouts and
the last OF the frontiersman are gath
cred together here, and when the Wild
West shall have pasSed away, with
their exit viii fall the curtain on the
first act in the great drama of civiliza-
ton
The magnitude OF this enterprise,
which travels with all the requirements
Of an army, is in itself a marvel. 1t re-
Quires two trains to transport it, and
carries with it not only an army of men
and horses. but the largest portable
grand stand, capable Of seating 10000

pose TO shut ourselves out from all the
rest Of the world and stop the flow Of
international trade. it IS inevitable that
We shall buy a considerable quantity Of
merchandise from foreign producers
each year.
The increase in imports, as the Phil
adelphia Record points out, signifies Just
what is indicated by the greater activity
in all industries al home-namely, that
we are making up for lost time. In the
fiscal year ended June 30 1880, the I'M
ports Of wooden cloth into the United
States omounted to 23.9l7031 pounds.
and in the previous year the imports
were only 1861 pounds. The i'm
ports during the Two years amounted
10 31.373,502 pounds. In spite of the
very large percentage Of increase in i'm
ports during the past year, our foreign
purchases Of wooden cloths in the two
years were less than during the TWO
p3lmiest years Of the Mckinley tariff.
Tn the TWO fiscal years ended June 30.
1892 and 1898. the imports Of wooden
cloths amounted TO 81, O19277 pounds,
valued al 27SS2 Sos, while the imports
OF 81 373.502 pounds during the past
TWO years were valued at only S23.054.-
452. The fact is that the imports Of
wooden cloths during the past TWO years
have been less in both quantity and
value than they would have been if the
Tariff law Of 1890 had remained in force
mp 20 the present time. and If this coun-
ny had escaped the commercial cata-
-lysm Of 1898 and 1894
The increase in the value Of imports
Of wooden dress goods from SS.5So962
IN the fiscal year ended June 80, 1884
TO S1L2s9St4 in the year just closed IS
what the lIcKinleyites call a swelling
Hood OF stuns OF foreign make. Taking
Just these TWO years by themselves the
increase looks large; but, as a matter
Of fact, the S14339.84i worth Of these
goods which were imported in the past
year were the smallest aggregate of
lmpor-ari0ns in this line since 1885. ex-
cepurg The year ended June 80, 1894
when We bought little at home, leJ alone
going abroad for dry goods. 1IcKil-
leyi-es point riumphantly TO the in
crease ia the value Of imports Of all
manufactures OF wool from $40 1882
in 1854 TO S36.542 1856 IN 1e94-5 as an
evidence of the manner in Ehich the
new tariff has swung omen the door
into this market, bur they do not mem
ton The fact that under the plofesselly
prohibitory rates Of the Mckinley Tariff
act our importauons Of these goods
mounted in value to S41,0500S0 in
1901, 10 S35.555,S79 in 1912, ana TO
S3S,04S.515 in 1925.
THIS increase signifies. simply, that
our trade abroad as well as al home |
is returning TO its normal condition.

world must anticipate from Cuba and the
beet countries such falling or lu pro-

AS Cuba is the largest source Of our
supply Of sugar. furnishing more than
one-half an that is imported into this
country. il is apparent that the reduc-
ton of the coming crop TO little more
than ont-half OF the yield Of the past
season will produce an effect upon
prices which will be very percepubly
felt by every family in the United
States. The cheapeuing Of sugar by

machinery has increased the coDsump-

so per cent in the past fifteen years.
In 1881 the quantity Of sugar consumed
