FROM 'nichsp Record
The lively interest that is mani
tested throughout Great Britain il
the development CT American in
dustrles is not prompted altogether
by disinterested motives. English
manufacturers aud merchants ar,
not entirely pleased with the phe
nomenal expansion of our foreign
trade For instance, the Iron anc
Coal Trades Review of London, al
accepted authority in thos t
branches, has been gathering some
particulars of the recent progress in
the development Of American iron
making, and it frankly admits thai
there Is nothing in the recent his
tory OF progress that is more re-
markable than the development
that has taken place in the iron and
steel making resources OF the United
States" I" Summarizing the iEforma-
ton it has gained, the Review call.
attention to the important fact that
the capacity OF the blast furnaces ot
this country is now equal to the
production of nearly 20,O0O,OOC
tons of pig iron annually-more
than the whole output of the world
less than twenty years ago-while
the steel-making plants by the Besse-
mer and open-hearth processes are
equal to producing over Is, 900, ,00O
tons of steel annually, or three times
as much as the whole production OF
steel in the world less than twenty
years ago.
With thess figures before them,
it is no wonder that the English
merchants exclaim: "Where il
this state of things likely to end?'
The Iron and Coal Trades Review
appreciates the Importance of the
situation. ii says:
I'm view of such extraordinary
development it is easy to under
stand why ;he American steel manu-
iacturers should be hungry fol
orders. In our own country the
existing Bessemer works are not
equal TO producing more than p
800, 900 tons Of ingots year, but
the open-hearth plants might, un-
der pressure, produce over 1000,
600 tons, so that our steel-prodlcing
is just about one-half of
that estimated for The United
States"
The advantages which Americans
enjoy in the possession of improved
processes, labor-saving machinery
and natural economy of large pro-
duction should eventually give them
absolute control of the market.

A Pleasant Surprise.

HhntlngDufH Argus.
On Thursday evening of last week
the various secret societies of which
Mrs. A. III. Koerner is member
took advantage of her absence dur
ing that afternoon to quietly take
possession of her home and prepare
a pleasant surprise fer her, the day
being her twenty-fourth wedding
anniversary. The guests brought
many beautiful flowers to decorate
the home, large seats were placed
on the pretty lawn, and all tables,
etc, arranged before the hostess ar
rived. Mrs. Koerner had received
NJ intimation Of the affair and was
very much taken aback at the call
Of Surprise; being an admiral le
hostess it did not take her many
moments to regain her self-posses-
sion and do what she could to make
her guests have a lovely evening.
A large table was stretched on the
lawn, aud one arranged in the din
ing room, and about sixty ladies
partook of the elegant luncheon
that was spread. The evening was
a delightful one and the only regret
that marred the pleasant feeling
throughout was that all the mem
bers were not present to enjoy this
pleasant occasion.
The city schools will not open till
Monday, Sept. 18th, which will be
the week following the fair.
The old Prior school building was
sold this week by Trustee Behrens
for $3.50, to Emil Heidrich.

The Future OF the United States.

NNA-t ttff'ffNs
The English people and press re
'ognizc the possibilities before the
american nation 10 an extent that
many Of our own citizens do not.
One OF the recent expressions of
confidence in the future greatness
II America is given in the London
spectator Discussing the United
states and its policy that paper said
n a recent issue:
"The worlds future greatly de-
pends upon the political character
II the Americans. When, in 1850,
they are 100000, 600 they can
rush any people except the Slavs.
10 fit them for that destiny the
Americans should have difficulties,
and complicated rela-
ions with the remainder of man
Kind. AT present everything is too
easy for them. They live too much
to themselves. They must learn to
govern as well as to be governed
and must add to their splendid pat
riotism the English gift of cold and
lofty tolerance. They must keep
subordinate governments as free
from corruption as their supreme
court.
Without going as far as the Spec
tator with respect to the duty OF the
United States to court difficult pro
blems in order to strengthen its in
stitutions and its people, it must be
admitted that the foregoing extract
contains much Of significant truth.
Whether it wills ii or no, the Uni
ted States is a great world power, a
fact OF which our people are Just
becoming conscious. In the course
If the next century this nation is
destined to become the greatest
power On the globe. 1t possesses
range for unified development that
is open To no other country, unless
it be Russia. The welfare of the
civilized world is to be seriously
affected for better or for worse, ac-
cording to the wisdom with which
the tremendous power of this ma
ton shall be exercised. 1t is a
matter of concern, therefore, not
only to our own citizens but TO ali
civilized people, that the govern
ment and institutions of this coun-
try be pure and strong, and that they
be administered by men Of wisdom
and prudence.

This put the convention in an

This Looks Bad.

About 5000 volunteer soldiers
are being sent to Puerto Rico, not
because they are needed, but in
order "to give the several states in
the union representation in the
field"
Not only will this proceeding add
greatly to the expense of the war,
but it il a confession of political
motives back of army movements.
The soldiers should be sent where
they are needed, and nowhere else.
Troops should not be sent out after
the war is virtually over simply to
give some politicians chance to
say that they possessed influence
enough to have regiments from
their states ordered to the front
The soldiers themselves were
anxious to 90 to the front when there
was need for their services, but we
cannot believe many Of them will
feel gratifed at being ordered for
ward in this manner and from
such motives. .-Ex.
