POLITICAL SIGNIFICANCE.

1t would be we'll for the free traders to
reflect upon the comments of British au-
thorities upon these points. This quota
ton from the Birmingham "Daily Maip'
should be pasted in the hat of every AM
erican:
"By cheaper methods of production,
America is overtaking us in more than
one department of manufacture. Start
ling to the Midlands are the figures pub
lished to-day concerning nails. Stats
tics show that the expectation of wire
nails from the United States has grown
from 1,547, ,07s pounds in the fiscal year
1888 to 22,S94, ,099 pounds in the fiscal
1898. The growth which has been phe-
nominal ever since the beginning, has
been especially SO in the last two or
three years. In 1895 the expectations
were 1857, ,267 pounds; in 1896, s,o3l 1927
pounds, thus practically doubling in one
year; and in 1898, 22,s94, ,O99 pounds,
showing similar gain in the last two
years, the exports of 1898 being five times
more than 1895. This is not very plea
sant when one puts this side by side with
the fate of the nail trade in the Midlands.
Moreover, Chicago has become the seat
of an iron bedstead industry that threat
ems to defy competition, the United
States generally is knocking even Ger
m my out in the manufacture of cheap
boots, and, besides this. American steel
