Less and less is being heard from
the free-t-ade screamers about the
deficit of the Dingley law. The two
million-dollar surplus of December
was something of staggerer, and
although January will undoubtedly
show a deficit, owing to the interest
and other payments incident so the
commencement of the year, the re
ceipts for the month will be larger
than in December, and it will now be
but a short time until receipts will
meet all current expenditures.

1t might be we'll for free-trade
students to examine the official state
ments of the November exports in
order to learn that the operations of
protective tariff do not result dis.
advantageously to export trade as
was loudly proclaimed by some of the
free-trade graduates in their discus
zion of the tariff bill before Congress
last year. This statement will show
them that the value of articles expor-
ted from the United States in that
month was $7,0OO,00O greater than in
November of the preceding year un-
der their low-tariff measure. The
figures for the first eleven months Of
1897 show a gain of $86,00o,OO0 over
the corresponding months Of the pre-
ceding year. The greatest point,
however, made by the free-trade
Congressional orators was their
showing of the increase in expectation
of manufactured articles which they
attributed directly to the operations
of the Wilson law, aud claimed that
with the enactment of high protec-
tive tariff these expectations of manu-
factured articles woulG Immediately
decrease. The expectation of manu-
factured articles increased in the first
eleven months Of 1897 nearly $27,0O0,-
900, as compared with the correspon-
ding months of 1895, the gain being
more than II pei cent.

The year 1897 shows Colorado our
banner mining state. Her total pro-
duction of metal aggregated 1885,
900, of which 1922 100000 was gold.
Yet notwithstanding this enormous
value taken from the bowels of the
earth, her farm statistics show the
value Of her agricultural products to
have exceeded even the products Of
her mines.

York journal in championing the
the cause and personality of Bryan
bnt this paper now drops Mr.. Bryan
like red hot cake. Its editors, how
ever. claim that they are not incon-
siatant and that MIR. Bryau's unrcas-
oning advocacy of dead issues justi-
fies them in their course. The fol-
lowing is sample of what the Jour
nal says of Mr.. Bryan editoriaily,
and in doubled-leaded type: GAS a
Bryan Democrat l have to confess
that grow weary of Mr.. Bryan. And
this is important because l find my
self in constantly increasing COM
pany. With these other Bryan DEM
ocrats, am coming to believe that he
is not large enough to to be the lead
cr of the cause which is known by his
name. He is showing narrowness
or an irrational obstanary. The per-
sistance with which he clings to 16
to as if it were not only the soli-
tary tenet in the Democratic creed,
but the axis OF the revolving cosmos,
betrayed either Bryan's iucapacity
to comprehend Bryanism or dogged
disposition which refuses TO acknow-
ledge what is presented to his eyes
and those of every other Intelligent
man in the country, whether for or
against the Chicago platform of the
new Democracy.

Wheat expectations continue heavy.
Including -four, the wheat exporta-
tions from this country to Europe
during the past year have been more
than one-half of the total exporta-
tions. Our exports of wheat have
amounted to over l80 million bushels
as against the worlds total shipment
of about $50 million bushels.

Englishrnen are finding serious
fault with our new tariff law, as
viewed from an English standpoint.
The official figures Of the home
office indicate that British exporta-
tions during 1896 show a decrease
of nearly s2O,OOO,O0O and British au-
thorities claim it is the result of the
new tariff law in the United States,
which has set our people to manu-
featuring again, and thus cut off
large importations Of English and
other foreign goods.

A new outlet for the surplus pro-
duct of our coal mines have been dis
covered. Is stated that American
coal can be delivered in Brazil at q
price to easily compete with English
coal. There is no reason why this
should not be true, IN view of the
ease of production in Alabama and
other Southern coal fields, and the
demand in Brazil for supplying steam
vessels and smelling is large.

Probably the reason of Mr.. Bryan's
declination of the offer to return to
Congress lies in the fact that there
are already number Of "leaders" in
that body, and Mr. Bryan might find
more active opposition than he does
while roauling the world at large.
