The principal imports into China from the United
States are cotton goods kerosene oil. flour, pro-
visions. railway material and engines, manufact-
ures OF iron and steel manufactures OF wood and
manufactured tobacco. The report Of the Inspector
General Of Customs OF China contains statements
from the Customs Commissioners at the various
ports and from the statistical secretary OF the
customs service, which, is we'll known has been
for many years administered by natives of England
selected for that service by the Chinese Govern
ment because Of their familiarity with customs
laws and commercial methods throughout the
world These reports relating TO the commerce OF
the year 1898. comparing II with that OF previous
years, contain many interesting statements show
ing the gains which American products are max
ing In the import trade of the empire.
The statistical secretary F. T. Taylor in his
general report on the commerce OF China for 1898,
says:

remained practically stationary for three years but

says:
There was a small decrease in the quantities OF

Tho substance aud the Shadow.

AT the age of sIxty-two years Ad-
miral Dewey is vigorous in health, and
Is likely to live at leas. another score of
years. In his position in the highest
plsee in the naval service, with large
salary, he is enabled to enjoy the re-
mainder of his life. even in retirement
at the full pay OF his rank. There is
no restriction Of his personal freedom.
He is his own master in its full sense.
He is at the height of fame, and has a
place In the respect and love of his fell
low citizens, and viii never do any
thing which would weaken that posi-
ton,
The Washington Evening Star notes
that, in the event Of Admiral Dewey's
elevation to the presidency there would
be, in all probability, an immediate
claah between him and the managers
OF the Democratic party which had
used him and his unbounded popularity
for their own purposes.
such difference. says the Star, would
cause the four years of that term OF
Office TO be marked by bitter strus-
Gle. The sailor Presidents hours would
be anxlous ones, his responsibilities
tremendous, the public demands upon
him inslstent, and his opportunities for
constructive work in line with the pop
ular wishes limited. Having been
borne into the white house on a wave
Of enthusiasm, he would soon find him
self handicapped by lack Of a cohe-
rent party with distinctive poilcy,and
perhaps in the last two years Of his
term with an antagonistlc Congress
on his hands" the once popular admiral
would dnd his prestige waning and his
popularity vanishing. The Star con-
tinues:
The New York World. which has been
foremost In the foolish effort TO force Adj
miral Dewey into the arena as candidate,
has BiVen the game away by announcing
that after the election OF Dewey IN lyVu
the programme should be to permit NJ.

probably on the assumption that the Ne
brSSkh candidate would be chastened py

fore more willing in 1904 to bend himselt %

I,Sed the admiral for a temporary end, In.
VOWED him In a quarrel with his political
hackers, wasted his popularity and deprtv-
"a him Of his high rank and emoluments'
the purpose Is to throw him aside as
squeezed orange.
However, 1t is mot likely that such
thing will happen, for, as the Star says
tie people may rest assured that this
spectacle will never be witnessed, for 1T
Is impossible. Admiral Dewey has
marked himself as man of discretion,
and he is not likely to enact for the
worlds entertainment the familiar role
Of the dog grasping at the shadow in
the water of the bone which he held in
bis mouth"

contemplated such an Invitation would
be entirely ,dlhoui ne boundAFie5 Of
prOpristy.
The Frealdrnt never extended such an
Invitation to Dewey. The Register has
no authority for the statement, save
possibly the statement Of some yellow
sheet No news Of any such character
has ever been sent from Washington.
No intimatioa 81 such a thing has ever
appeared in auy Associated Press re-
ports concerning the Pre5ldehts ar
rangements. powey's name has never
been mentioned in that connection.
Both the President and Admiral Dewey
are deserving q some credit for good
sense.
Finally President Mckinley Is not
going on q political tunket. BE is not
that sort Of man. 1t Is not necessary
for him to DO 81 His record Is before
the country. Speeches are mot neces-
sary for him 70 impress himself upon
the public. History speaks for itself.
His record Is before the people to speak
for Itself. Admiral Dewey Is mot neces-
sary to bring Il out more forclbiy.
Admiral Dewey has no politics. 1t
would not, as the head ofthe American
navy, be proper to be partisan. It is
not customary. and never has been.
President Mckinley, and Admiral Dew

Criticism out ofPlace.

The Pittsburgh Dispatch hits the
nail square ON the head when, in COM
mentInr on the absurdlty of the Demo-
cratic charges that the Presidents trip
west is Z. political junket, 1t says: "The
President has not announced any poll
tIcal purpose. He is going to Chicago,
prinarily to attend the Fan Festival,
upon invitation OF that city. Beyond
that he win take a week OF pleasure
iaunung about the northwest" 1t
may be. SAYS the Dispatch. which is not
a supporter of some of the policies of
the administration, that political pur-
nose is concealed under this innocent
aversion Of the Chief Magistrate Of
the Nation. but 1t will be time enough
TO critlclse when that purpose appears.
.As long as the President and his cabl-
net advisers refrain from discussing
noIIt;caI subjects In their addresses,
