What 80 Years of Protection Did for th'
United States.

What so Years of Protection Did for the
United States.
In brief review of the industrial
development which has taken place
since 1860, the reader must be i'm
pressed with the results which have
followed the commercial policy
which we have pursued. So rapid has
been the growth, so great the in
crease,so wonderful the changes, so
immense and marvellous the grand
result, that it is no longer appro-
pirate to compare the United States
with any other nation or country.
Only comparison with all the rest
of the world combined will give a
true and proper estimate of our
country's position and worth.
The population of the earth is es-
timated by the most reputable stat
icians at 1, 500, 100000. The popula-
tion of the United States is now about
1000, 900. It will be. seen, there
fore, that we have considerable less
than one twentieth of the inhabit-
ants of the globe. According to a
careful estimate made by Speaker
Reed, we are equal as consumers
as q market for our own and the
world production compared with
the rest of the world, to 700, 900, 600
people. According to Mulhall's Die
tionary of Statistics, we manufac-
ture one-third of the worlds pro-
duct, that is, one-half as much as
all the world outside of ourselves.
We use all our manufactures OF
their equivalents at home. We con-
sumo one-fourth of all the sugar
produced in the world, one-third of
all the iron and steel, one-third
of all the coffee, ,one-quarter of all the
cotton, one-third of all the wool,
nearly one-half of all the coal, one
half of all the tin plate, one-third Of
all the meat, and one-third of all
the grain. We raise twice as much
cotton and ten times as much corn
as the remainder of the world put
together. We produce one-third OF
the worlds production of gold and
silver. We have one-third of the
worlds steam power. We have one
half of the railroads on the face OF
the earth. We grant twice as many
patents annually as all the rest OF
the world. One-third the wealth
accumulated by the whole world
is acquired by the United States
While the debt of the rest of the
world increased during the decade
frsm 1880 to 1890 over 81, 900, ,OO0,.
900, the debt of the United States
during the same periond decreased
by exactly that amount. The pei
capita debt of the rest of the world
in 1890 was $32. 2s, ours only $14.24
less than one-half. And best of all,
there are more farms and homes
owned by the workingmen of the
United States to-day than are owned
by all the laborers of the rest of the
/ world combined

scheme a fine one. 1t is not absolutely
original, however, as many men have
fore and tried to follow them and pick
winners by doing so. James admits all
this, but insists that their failure was due
to their not being persistent enough.
There is another man who visits the
race tracks occasionally who goes alto
gether by the names Of the horses. This
man does not pretend to have any know
ledge of the horses or their breeding, nor
to know the difference between a horse
owner like August Belmont and one like
William Callous DAILY, or between a jock
ey like Littleheld and one like Taral He
says that he has noticed that the names
of many of the horses are characteristic
of some trait which they possess.
Such a name as The Winner, for in
stance, would indicate that the owner of 1t
could beat the other colts in the stable
The Runaway, on the other hand, would
indicate that the animal which bore it
was a hard brute to control, though hav-
ing more than the usual amount of speed
One 1 Love- according to the theory Of
this philosopher, would be an animal
which anybody should be proud to own.
The Sirs have always been favorites with
him. He argues that a colt would never
be named Sir this or Sir that unless it
possessed some noble characteristics. For
the same reason he has a liking for such
names as Peter the Great and Henry Of
Navarro. A name like Birdcatcher throws
this man into an ecstacy of delight. To
his mind a horse with such a name can
run fast enough to catch the birds Of
the air Uncertainty" would clearly
show to his mind that the horse with that
name was not to be depended on. Rapi-
dan, on the other hand, must necessarily
be a runner from way back. This quaint
person has also q. weakness for funny or
old names. Buckjumper he would con-
slider an animal which was given to buck
jumping rather than to running. He
would glory in such a name as Fleet
wing. He made big. winning once by
backing the Flying Dutchman.
Bustup might be a good horse, but this
man would not back him because he could
not determine whether the name signitied
that the animal would burst up" the
| pocketbooks of the 'bookies," or those of
the deluded persons who backed him to
win. He INDUCES in his proclivity of
trying to pick winners largely in the colt
races in the spring of the year, and, while
he has not become wealthy, he is strongly
of the opinion that he has not lost any
more money through following his system
than he would have done by following
somebody else's. He declares that at any
rate he has had lots of fun and furnished
a number of heart-burning surprises for
his friends.
