Philadelphia Aug. Additional ev-
idence comes daily of the increased
prosperity that has followed the re-
turn of the Republican party to the
control of the national government and
the prospects for the future in all lines
of industry and for the farmers, with
new and profitable markets for his
products, are most gratifying Here in
Pennsylvania, probably more than in
any other state in the Union, have the
beneficial effects of the success of the
Republican party in the last national
campaign been apparent. With Nc
Kinley's reelection certain, continued
good times are assured.
There is scarcely an industry that
has not been developed to wonderful
extent. Labor is employed at big ad-
vances in wages in many instances,
and the outlook for general advance
all along the line is most encouraging.
WHERE PENNSYLVANIA FIGURES.
The keystone state has figured to
profitable degree in the increase in ex
ports of manufactures during the last
fiscal year. The chief of the bureau of
statictics at Washington, by his report
lust issued. shows that the total ex-
ports for this class of products for the
year were valued at 1888, ,667 ,794. The
total is nearly $4S,000,O00, or 16 per
| cent, in excess of that of the preceding
| year, and is over double the value Of
| the exports of manufactures in 1891
"In order to appreciate the increased
share which manufactures are taking
| in the total volume of our exports .
SAYS Bradstreets', "it will be of SER
| vice to recall the fact that while in 1881
they formed only 12.4S per cent of the
total, in the year 1896 they had risen
! to 24.02 per cent, and in the fiscal year
| 1899 the proportion was increased to
2S.15 per cent"
LOCOMOTIVES FOR ENGLAND.
The ability of manufacturers of the
United States to compete with success
in the markets of the world rests no
longer upon conjecture. The fact that
the Baldwin locomotive works of this
city are just completing an order of To-
comotives for English railways, gotten
in competitive bidding with Great
Britains greatest plants, is but one
of the signs of the times.
Everywhere throughout the state the
furnaces are being lighted in iron and
steel plants that have been closed for
several years.
RAW MATERIAL SCARCE.
In many cases it is difficult to ge,
raw material to supply the demand. In
the Lebanon, Schuylkill and Lehign
valleys there are some small iron mills
which are virtually living from hand
to mouth. That is, they have no con.
