AGREAT CHANGE.

During the fiscal year ended June 30
1890, the United States imported maniac
lures to the value Of s356,651 300 and ex.
ported manufactures to the amount oil
s151, 1O2, 1915.
During the fiscal year ended June 30,
1899, our imports OF manufactures were
valued at s259, SIC, 293 and our exports OF
manufactures at s33s, 667,794.
Ten years ago we imported more than
twice as much manufactured goods as we
exported, the balance against US being
s2O5 500, 564. The balance In our favar for
the last fiscal year was s70,O07. sol, a
change in our favor in ten years of over
1884 100000.
Such showing was never made before
by any other nation. In ten years we
have reduced our imports of manufac-
lures more than s97, OOO, 900, while we have
increased our exports OF manufactures
more than s1s7,OOO,OOO.
We are now producing far more manu-
featured goods than the 100000 people

REASON FOR NOT RE-ENLISTING

One Of the best reasons yet advanced
WHY Southern men are backward now In
enlisting In the army, Is that many OF
those who enlisted last year were suub-
bed by the War Department IN such fla
grant discrimination as not to pass unno-
ticed. Thousands Of these men, excel
lently equipped and drilled, were kept In
camps Of instruction, and those Of North
ern States hurried to Cuba and Porto RI
CO. where fighting was to be done.
The Southern soldiers were better suit
ed to stand the climate, but no chance
was given them to win distinction. When
the troops were ordered to the Philip.
pines, finely equipped and drilled regi-
ments Of Texans then In that State, were
passed over. and Kansas unequipped reg
iments, no nearer San Francisco than the
Texans, and even troops from Pennsyl.
vania, were. sent across the Pacific
Again. the chance for glory was carefully
kept from the Southern soldier.
1t was the same here in Florida, tn,
nearest State to Cuba. The Florida troop,
were kept In detention camps. and SHIFTED
from town TO town, to be worn out will
camp monotony, while those from the fa
West and East were rushed to Cuba.
This unjust discrimination Is now hav
ing It's effect on re-enlisting. The Sou tn
patriotism was amply demonstrated las
year. Every Southern State not only re
sponded promptly with Its regular quot
under the call, but number Of extra reg
iments were raised and put In the 6eld.
When the interests Of the nation are Il
peril, the South will always be found rea

WHY?

The Jacksonville Metropolis asks, ''why
cannot Florida's merchants buy their
stocks Of the wholesale houses OF Jack
sonville?" For the reason, we suppose,
that Jacksonville's wholesale merchants
do not advertise In Florida's interior
newspapers The Jacksonville wholesale
merchant has UGH TO learn, and, unfortu-
nately for him. he Is a long time abOuG II.
1t has not yet dawned on the people out
side OF the metropolis" that Jacksonville
Is a Wholesale town. Ii Is heard of occa-
sionally by free ads In the country press
as having a gala week and there Is some
talk OF the ostrich farm outside its bor-
ders. but really the people have not ia
ken II seriously as wholesale center OF
trade because Its merchants have failed
to advertise except In the Jacksonville
daily papers. In the course OF the coming
century the Jacksonville wholesale mer-
chant VIII learn trick or two about get
ting before the public. We trust that the
knowledge will come 10 him within the
trst quarter OF the hundred wears now
numbering into time, for Jacksonville is
really an attractive little city and should
begin TO work for ad-Ruage plane TO
build on.-Leesburg Commercial.
The above is true solution OF the Ques-
ton asked. Merchants out here in West
Florida hardly know that there is whole-
sale house 10 Jacksonville; there Is plen-
W OF them who could not name q single
0he' Why? Because Jacksonville has
