OUR TRADE TRIUMPHs ABROAD.

A short time ago the London Times regretfully admitted that American goods were sTcrowdijng'' English trade abroad because of the superiority of Amer'icam machinery of all kinds by which the New Worlds manufacturers were turned out The superiority of the machinery was attributed to the superior intelligence of the American laborer.
 "A notable triumph of our machinery and mechanical appliances over all others has just been recorded at P tbs- burg, where the Westinghouse Flee Uric company announced that it had been awarded two important con- tracts for electrical machinery in the old world. The first contract is for the complete equipment of the street railways of Glasgow, Scotland, with apparatus, including engines, dyna- mos and cars. There are seventy miles of railway thene, owned by the city. The second contract was from Spain for engines and dynamos for street lighting in Malaga Heretofore the city has been supplied with Eng lish machinery, but a complete new plant IS to be installed and after gen. a-al inGury it was found that the American machinery was the best.
 Not only is our machinery of vari- ous kinds finding favor in Europe and in China and Japan, but the record of 1896, and the current year, shows that in score of lines of manufac- ture the American product is chosen in direct competition and after com parison with English, French and German goods of the same kind.

 the fact. It will be remem-

 was part of the plan to make a call at the famous George Vanderbilt es- tate. The supercilious and dogmatic
 English cad of a secretary in chars ge during the owners absence in Europe absolutely refused admittance to the reportorial party, at the same time signifying willingness to admit the presidential party. The presid ent forthwith declined ito go where the press could not, and the entire patty was finally admitted Mn Mckinley thus put himself on record as a friend and respecter of the press. It is now said that newspaper people will have a place in the ''line' at the White house reception on New Years day, the first time in the category of presidential receptions True they have been there but either in their professional capacity or as spectators. The idea of thus recognizing the press at a s-cial function of such eminence is calcu- lated to show to the world at large McKinley's great respect foie the influ- ence of the profession The reporter knows no fiowery beds of ease, no path of easy incline nor shores with out shoals.
