AMERICAN EXHIBITS AT PARIS.

u ENJAMIN D. WOODWARD. United States
~ Commissioner to the Paris Exposition gave in
the course OF short interview just before his
recent return to Paris good deal OF interesting in
formation concerning the prospects OF the American
exhibit there 1t appears from his statement that we
will surpass the world in the departments OF machn-
cry and OF engineering, and yet we will not be able
to make complete display OF work in those lines
The reasons why we shall fall short OF showing all
do or have done is curious. In the first place
the prosperity OF the country and the activity Of in
dustry have constituted handicap in an unexpected
way Many OF manufacturers have actually been
so rushed by the work OF filing orders they could
not prepare exhibits Mr.. Woodward is quoted IS
saying: "A American industries are crowded to the
utmost extent. In many cases manufacturers are
working night and day TO fill orders 1t is difficult
TO get materials. Many exhibitors who took space
and desired TO exhibit find it impossible to use it.
They cannot get ready. There will be no carriage
exhibit, Tor instance. 1t has always been in other
exhibitions an important exhibit and the manufac-
turers very anxious get space but when thew
start building vehicle for the exposition it is sold
before it receives the first coat OF paint customer
comes in and finds it to be just what he wants and
Immediately he demands il l have finally had to give
up the idea Of getting carriage exhibit >,
Another obstacle in the way OF obtaining exhibits
has been the rapid absorption of manufacturing plants
by trusts. BY OF these movements toward
larger organizations individual manufacturers or ex
listing manufacturing companies stop all their plans
for making exhibits, and the organizations are
not effected in time to undertake them We have
thus the curious paradox that shall make an in
complete industrial display at the exposition because
OF the very activity of our industry and the mapn
tude of its enterprises.
In commenting upon the State displays Mr. Wood
ward gives the first place New York by reason OF
the magnificent exhibit it will make OF engineering
work. OF our commonwealth he says: "The
State of California has prepared at great expense
large relief map of the State; also maps and models
OF the largest engineering work the railroads of
the State and OF long distance electrical transmission
which is important thing. CALIFORNIA; appropria
ton is being expended very judicously. They are
doing exactly what wanted them to do
Finally it may be noted the Commissioner is SAN
guine the exposition will be thoroughly ready for the
opening day. Eve shall make it matter OF pride.

The CHINESE AGAIN.
LIEUTENANT NIBLACK Of n. nav

| LIEUTENANT NIBLACK of the navy after
six months service in the Philippines, has de-
= termined upon complete reversal Of our
policy toward Chinese labor He says: The Chi
nese OF all the Asiatics are individually the most
trustworthy, commercially the only honest, and
employees the only faithful people who are at hand
as the true instruments use in making these islands
veritabe treasure trove. To restrict them in any
way will be political bunder and commercial sui
eide"
1t is announced that Admiral Dewey is in thorough
sympathy with this view The other members of the
Philippine Commission are not as marked in their ap-
prevail We have doubt that as an economic
proposition, Niblack states the truth He is backed
by the tact that no tropical country has ever i'm
pressed the worlds commerce with its surplus pro-
ductlon without using form OF servile and do
Gle labor. White men cannot work in the Philip
pines and it is proved that the natives will not work
beyond supplying their simple necessities. Our
dream OF wealth. therefore is to be realized by the
exploitation of cheap coole labor from China This
labor is to produce such surplus OF hemp sugar and
tobacco as to make the islands treasure trove We
are told that between them and the United States
commercial intercourse is be free No pretense IS
made that cooe wages in the islands can be raised
to the American white standard II it were pretended
no one in California would believe Out Of an
coolie labor here, instead of going upon the white
standard, established here the coole standard for
white labor, and for that reason we demanded the ex
clusion of Chinese. But why exclude them here if
they are to be commoners under our flag in the Phil
ippines' From there they can continue still more
dangerous competition with the American white
wage-worker. They can really make the islands
treasure trove for the few who have the capital TO
exploit cheap labor but the white labor OF this coun
try will be more vitality smitten than ever.
1t settled element in the protective policy that
to admit free to markets the products OF serve
labor which compete with the products Of white labor
here IS the equivalent OF demonstrating serve labor in
this country to compete with white labor face 70 fac.
we call these matters to public attention now
others say this country will cross that bridge when
comes to 1t The same men will say when the bridge
is reached, that it is manifest destiny: the fac viii
be waved and white labor will get stunning blow in
the name OF Fate and Patriotism.

he said, TO be ready time, and the French and
Others will do likewise. Our first material was
shipped on the Prairie-a Government transport. We
nave completed all the contracts for all OF four
annex buildings to be finished on the first OF Janu-
airy or February They will be devoted to agricul-
ture liberal arts, marine and forestry"
thus 1t appears that while our display will not be
comprehensive one showing all we do it
VIII still be one that will astonsh foreigners and in
most respects at any rate will be in good shape when
the hrst visitors see it. Our Government has not
voted so much money for the exposition as other
great nations, but private enterprise has made UP the
deficiency and Americans at the great world competi
ton that closes the century will have well founded
reasons for pride in the work of their countrvnen
