Milton, Del, Dec. 15.-'rhe late fire in
Georgetown has caused the people Of
Milton TO think on the water work
question; they evidently intend to fol-
low in the wake of Georgetown; and if
that town does not see fit to make the
improvement, doubtless this town will
not either.
Since the death OF Vice President Ho-

Hart House, killed a hog on Tuesday
that weighed 400 pounds. This is the
heaviest that has been butchered in
Milton, as far as known, but there are
many more to follow.

PAPERS.
In presenting interesting phases Of
scientific and economic problems, high
class newspapers frequently give infor-
nation OF as great value in their ad
vertising columns as in those devoted
to the publication Of the principal
events of the day; and when the fame
of a product is extended beyond its nat
ural limits into foreign lands, and a
large demand created throughout Great
Britain and her Colonies and the prin-
cipal sea-ports and cities Of Europe, Asia
and Africa, it becomes a pleasant duty
to note the fact and to tell Of the points
Of excellence on which so great a sue
cess is based. We refer to the now
world-famed laxative remedy, Syrup
Of Figs, the product of the California
Fig Syrup Company. The merits Of
this well-known excellent laxative were
first made known to the world through
the medical journals and newspapers
Of the United States; and is one Of the
distinct achievements Of the press. II
is now we'll known that Syrup OF Figs
is an ethical proprietary remedy, ap-
proved by the most eminent physicians
everywhere. because 10 Ia simple and

A BILLION AND A QUAR-
TER OF DOLLARS
That Is the Tremendous Sum Which Represents
Our Profit from Foreign Trade in the
Last Two Years.

There can be no question about pros-
perity prevailing everywhere in the
United States. = Here are q few official
figures and their lesson:
Under Democratic legislation in 1896
our domestic exports amounted to $685.
200, ,4S7, and our imports to $77s, ,724, ,674-
a difference in our favor of only $50, :
475.S1s. In 1898. under Republican leg
islation. our domestic exports amounted
to $1,21o, ,291.913, and our imports to o,S616,-
049.654. a balance of trade of 3616, 432, SIS
in our favor.
In the year ending June 30, 1899, our
total exports amounted to $1,277, ,205, 419.
and our total imports to $697, 1l6, ,854-a
difference Of $3.50 OSS, ,565 in our favor. In
the two years ending last June, we have
sold abroad s1,245 521 ,241 more than we
bought. That immense sum represents
the profits Of the American people in
their foreign trade in two years of Re-
publican rule.
An important factor in the prosper
ity Is the great increase in our exports
OF manufactured goods, and the de-
crease Of imports Of the same class of
goods. In 1896 this country imported
1888 ,912 worth of manufactured arti-
cles, and exported only $228.571, ,17S-a
difference against us Of $1O4, ,759, 7s4. In
1898, our imports of manufactured ar
ticles amounted to 1926, ,Ss1, ,231, but our
exports Of this class Of goods amounted
to 1920. .697 ,354-a difference in our favor
OF $50. 0.716,12S. But the reports for 1899
are still more encouraging, for they
show the imports of manufactured
goods have been $685., PAS, ,559,, and our ex.
ports Of the same class Of goods $685.
667, 794-a difference Of $75,419,235 in our
favor. Add the $75,419,235 increase of
exports over imports Of manufactured

inasmuch as they must either restrict
or combine, they took their alternative
combination, and the result Is that
plants go together and business is con-
tinued. am sorry for those who lose
positions, but for every man who loses
his place by such combinations there
are thousands kept in employment in
the shops to produce this surplus prod
uct who could not be given employment
If we did not resort to these combina-
tions.
Combination is the direct result Of the
extreme competition that exists. and
has been resorted ito for the purpose of
enabling US to compete with the people
that we have to meet in the markets Of
the world in other countries. Therefore,
when you come to consider this ques-
tion, remember that every time you in
troduce labor-saving machine-a sew
ing machine or reaping machine, or
anything else, you displace somebody
Those are vents that mark the progress
OF the world: they are business evolu-
tions. AND YOU CANNOT STOP
THEM BY AN ELECTION, NOR BY
LAWS ANY MORE THAN YOU CAN
STOP THE TIDE OF PROGRESS OR
THE COURSE OF EVENTS. .-,
THE time has come when the world
has changed front, as 1t were. Over in
China there are five or six millions OF
people just being introduced ITO our
civilization. They will make great de-
mands on the world in the immediate
future Russia, France, Germany and
England ara striving to have their fair
share of that trade. The great problem
of American craftsmanship Is to secure
for the United States her fair share OF
that trade also. tApplause)

have come about in the natural order Of
things as a natural evolution of natural
conditions.
Through all these years that we have
been pursuing protective tariff policy
we have been saying that our purpose
was Ito maintain a high American
standard of wages, and at the same
time develop our industries end give
employment to our labor until we could
supply all our own wants and not be
dependent on anybody else. If man
wants tool with. which TO make a
piece of machinery, why go to England
when he can come to the Niles tool
works at Hamilton and get it?
"But all the while we have been pur-
suing that policy we have been pointing
out that the purpose Of it was to supply
our own market, and when in due time
I'VE would come to the place where we
did supply our own market. then would
be time enough to talk about supplying
the markets of the world. Why be con-
cerned about selling to England, Aus
tralia. Asia, Africa, China and Japan
when, you can sell right here among
yourselves? 1t will be time enough, we
said. to talk about those far distant
markets when we have supplied spur
own markets. Now. through this Oe-
vslopment that has been made possible
by these policies, we have
SO INCREASED OUR PRODUCTION
and capacities. SO increased our plants.
so gathered together skilled labor, that
we are today supplying our own wants
and have large surplus product of the
farm as well as the shop, and in the
sale of this surplus product the laboring
men and the wage-earner are equally
interested with the capitalists who own
the shops.

DEVELOPMENT OF TRUSTS
Senator j. B. Foraker Discusses Their Origin and
What May Eventually Come Of Them

"They tell US there is great prosperity
In the country, and it has brought
trusts. And we were told yesterday
that it didn't do to have too much pros
perity, because it cannot in the nature
Of things continue, and you will have
sooner or later to go back to de-
pressed condition Of things, and you
had better stay there while you are ac-
customed DO it. I suppose. Uaughter.)
Well, that Is not our way. 1t is true.
my fellow citizens. it Is a day of trusts !;
but let me briefly present to you some
Ideas with respect to this thai: do not
see commonly commented upon.
I'm the first place, not everything is
trust that Is in the nature of a COM
bination of capital, plants, energies and
industries. There are some trusts just
as bad as they are represented to be,
and these We should endeavor to have
the law correct; but the great majority
of these combinations which are reck-
lessly characterized as trusts are as
legitimate as any other business enter
prises and as beneficial.
I'm the first place there is nothing
political about it, Republicans and
Democrats alike are in these combina-
tiors. Republicans and Democrats alike
condemn and oppose. You cannot draw
party lines In respect to a question OF
that kind. And then, my fellow -citi-
z5ns. the tariff Is not the mother of
trusts. as they talk about, because in
free trade England, where they have no
tariff, was the beginning of trusts. That
is the place where they have reached
THEIR HIGHEST DEVELOPMENT.
How is 1t they have come about? They

1t? You can't sell it at home, our mar
kets are glutted. When we framed the
Dingley bill 1t was almost impossible
for us to find enough commerce that we
could tax in the name Of protection to
yield sufficient revenue to support this
government. Today 1t could not be done
at all. You have got to look up new
sources Of revenue. This is the conif-
ton we are in. Where are you going to
sell the surplus. You will have to sell
1t abroad. Where will you GO to find
the markets abroad? The best marke ts
are to be found in the far East-China,
Japan, the Islands of the Pacific.
"Why the best? Because when you
undertake to sell In Europe, Germany.
France, Russia, England, they are
right there at the center of operations )
they have got an advantage over you.
But when you so into these far distant
countries th:y have to contend with the
same difficulties that meet us. So we
must go there to sell The question Of
wages comes right up at once. They
have cheaper wages in those countries.
They can manufacture more cheaply
than we. They ara doing it. They can
supply these markets at great ad-
vantage over us. We could not have
our fair share of the trade that Is CONF
ing with China, Japan and the Islands
OF the Easi unless we can inset these
difficulties.
HOW ARE YOU GOING TO MEET
