AMERICAN MANUFACTTnES.

The classified returns of American
 exports for April show a very grati- flying increase in the movement of
 American manufactures, indicating.
 as has been noted in comments
 upon the returns for previous
 months, that our manufacturers
 continue to hold the trade which
 they have been recently seeking.
 and that there has been no material
 interruption to this movement by reason Of the war. Tndced, there is a very confident feeling that as the
 result of the war and of the opening up of new fields of trade, our manu- facturing exports will be greatly increased.
 With the strong position now oc- cupied by American producers there is 6 basis for almost unlimited ex- pansion of our exports of manufac- tured goods, and the ending of the war should give wonderful impetus to this branch of the export trade. It is becoming more and more evident that the control of the nome market and the extension of American trade into foreign fields progress and prosper side by side lnder the American policy of Protection The record for the uil year will show an enormous in- 'rease of our sales abroad of agri- and manufactured pro- iucts, together with a decrease in 'ur purchases of foreign manufac- lures. It is a wonderful record throughout, and one which, taken 's a whole, has never been equaled in the history of international commerce..

self reliance of our citizenship
 It nill show capabllity of self government as well as readiness and willingness to sustain and fight for the honor of our common country.
 No congress, republican or demo crat; no administration would hesitate to recognize this right of self government to Arizona under such circumstances. It is to be hoped that Governor McCord will te given the privilege of raising 6 regiment and leading his boys to the front.
