| imports nearly so, 1000, 900 worth of raw
cotton each year, and $3,500,000 more in
cotton goods, but the United States
sent to Japan last year only So 300, 000
or raw cotton, and less than S150,000 of
cotton cloth. The most interesting de-
mand of Japan is for iron and steel and
their manufactures. OF the crude prod
uct she requires $500, 900, and of manu-
featured product s., 500, 000 During the
past year the United States sent $780,
600 of machinery and $4,000 900 of other
iron and steel manufactures, thus sup
plying practically the entire present de-
mand of Japan for these articles
Trade in China is making less rapid
Roadway. Our imports average about
S200O0,O00 year, and have varied but
little from that amount for the past
twenty-five years. The largest imports
from that country were in 1881. when
we took 500, 00000 The exports to
China, however, have recently shown
some Improvement. The largest values
ever sent to that country were in 1870
nearly thirty years ago. over $12 900, 900,
but in 1880 the exports had dropped to
put little over one million. From 1881
to 1896 the exports ranged from 81, $780,
900 to IS, 700 900. In 1896 the exports
We're $4,000 900, but were increased to
Sill 100000 year ago, dropping off,
however, to $4,000, 900 during the past
year.
China requires each year Sc, 500, 900 of
iron and steel, including 81, 800 600 of
machinery, but last year the United
States furnished only $685., 600 China
imports $64,O00,OOo worth of cotton
goods, of which only one ninth comes
from this country. She requires $780,
600 worth of flour, of which less than
100000 worth is from the United
states. Nor does this country make a
better record in taking the products of
the Chinese empire. China sends out
each year $35, 600, 900 worth of silk, of
which the United States takes barely
five millions. She sends out $50, 600
pounds of tea every year of which the
United States takes about So, 900, 900
pounds.
In the British East Indies our import
trade is about SIC, 900, 900 year, and our
export trade $4,000,000. These totals
have varied little for the past twenty
five years. AS compared with fifty
years ago, however. there has been a
gain of fully tenfold. Our imports and
exports from Dutch East Indies are
about the same as for the British East
Indies, but the Improvement in trade
has been marked within the past few
years
Up to 1893 we rarely imported from
the Dutch colonies more than $1,000
600, but last year our imports were over
s27, 000,0 00 Our usual exports, up to
1896, were about s1,500.000, but last year
we sent S4,700000, gain of more than
200 per cent.

of $780, 900 square miles. Mexico has
! $4,000 square miles and 10000, 900 peo-
| pie, and Canada $780,, 900 square miles
and 5000, 600 inhabitants. In Central
America there is an area Of $4,000
square miles and $4,000 900 people. This
makes a total for North America of
nearly 90, 000,0 600 people, and an area OF
100000 square miles. In South America
are 35 600 more people in territory
of 100000 square miles. The two
Americas have Is, 900, 000 square miles of
area and 128, 000, 900 people.
With the exception of that from the
United States, only very small part
of the trade of America goes TO the
Pacific. The imports of this country
from Asia and Oceanica, according to
latest figures, were $119, 600, 900, and the
exports SCI, 100000, making a total of
186,000,000. Include the entire trade
of the western continent in the Pa
cific, and total imports reach S26l, O10
00), and the total exports 1912 600, 100.
ADDED to the trade of the olde- coun-
tries, the entire commerce of ihc Pa
cifo is not less than $4,000 geo each
year. which means that one dollar III
every seven of the worlds trade now
passes over those waters.
OF this enormous traffic Great Brit
ain secures the lions share, importing
$265, 000, 900, and sending out goods to
the value OF $3.50, OUO, OOU or total trade
of $500, 900, 600. The United States
stand next, with total trade In the
Pacific of 5000, 000,00 or one-third of
that of Great Britain. Germany stands
a close third with 500, 900, 900 Of imports

Important as is the trade Of the Unit
ed States on the Pacific, this country
is far from living up to it's opportuni-
ties. Take for example the trade with
Asia and it's neighboring islands. Last
year our imports from Asia reached
$92, 900, 900, and our exports to these
countries aggregated $44 500, 000 making
a total trade of $137 900 900. This is APP
parently good showing, but so far as
our imports are concerned there is &
gain of only three millions over 1885,
previously the best year of our record.
For the past seven years our import
trade has averaged $4,000, 600, and dur
Ing the past twenty-five years it has
rarely dropped below $50, 100000
The relation can best be seen in a
comparison of the imports from Asia
with imports from other countries.
Last year the percentage from Asia
was ffteen; in 1896 and 1897 the per-
centage was eleven and a half; but !
even IN 1875 Asiatic goods formed 10 per

half of the entire globe. Some idea of
its size may be gathered from the fact
that from San Francisco to Yokohama
the distance is $500 miles, and 1900
miles must be added to reach the Phil
!ppines, and 1900 more to reach Singa-
pore, the extreme southern limit of the
Asiatic coast. From San Francisco to
Honolulu is 2l0J miles, and from Homo

more.
This vast ocean, connecting the new
est and the Oldest civilizations, is the
coming field in the struggle for trade
supremacy. On its western borders
are Asia and Australia with their ISL
ands. The continent of Asia and it's
islands have population of not less
than 840,000,000, with an area of IA, 700,-
600 square miles. The largest of these
countries is China with 403, 600, 900 popu-

Another tributary to the Pacific on

Asia and Oceanica together, the popu-

importing $4,000 900 a year from those
islands. Last year, however, our i'm

AT present we are taking one-fifth of

Sl50000, or 112 per cent, is from this
country. AT the same time Great Brit

fore they reach their destination And
yet we have developed to a point where
we can not only compete in trade with
the other nations of the world but can

Americans have now an opportunity to
change these unequal conditions.
The Northern Railroad, which Bar

from New Orleans, is to be sold shortly

about fifty miles more to be built This
can be done in two years. Once built,
Guatemala will have a railroad from

The principal export of Japan is silk
She sends out each year an average Of
1923, 100000 worth of raw silk and 5000
600 of the manufactured goods. About
40 per cent of the raw silk comes to the
United States, and an equal proportion
of the manufactured goods Japan
sends out S5,000,0 900 worth of tea each
year, a very large proportion of which
comes to the United States.
Among the heavy demands made
upon other nations by Japan is that for
bread stuffs, of which she requires
