Expansion Of Trade.

While our exports to European coun-
tries have Increased at wondrous rate
our trade relations with our new Pacific
and West Indian dependencies have not
been less marvellous. us recent state
ment OF the treasury bureau OF stalls
tics relates that the exports from the
United States TO Cuba, Porto Rico. Ha-
wall, the Philippine and Samoan islands
will reach a total of $45,OOO.OOO In the
fiscal year which ends with the present
month. This will be more than three
times as much as In 1896. and more than
twice as much as in any year OF our
commerce with those Islands except in
the years is92-9S-s4. when reciprocity
greatly Increased our exports to Cuba
and Porto Rico. To cuba the total for
the fiscal year seems likely to be fully
$25, 1000. 900, against $7.5SO.OOO In the is
cal year 1896. and S24.I57.OOO in the great
reciprocity year 1888. when exports to
that island were more than double those
OF five years earlier. To Porto Rico the
exports Of the year will be In round
terms 100000. against an average OF
S2,T50OOO In the reciprocity years 1892,
1893 and 1894. when exports TO that
island were double those OF earlier
years To the Hawaiian islands the
total for the year will be about $l5.-
100000. or five times as much as In
1893, nearly Gour times as much as In
1886. and more than double the total
for 1898 To the Philippines the total for
1900 viii be about 100000, OF more
than in the entire fifteen years since
1885. the date at which the Erst record
Of our exports to the Philippines was
made by the treasury bureau OF stats
tics. To the Samoan Islands the exports
OF the year Will be about Si25.ooO. or
nearly rs much as in all the years
since 1896.
on the import side. Cuba begins to
show something Of her oid-time
strength as an exporting Island, as the
totai imports into the United States
from Cuba for the full year viii show
n total of sSl.OOO,0OO, against S1DOOO.O5
in 1898, and SIS. 100000 in 1897. though
they still are less than the average for
the reciprocity years 1892, 1898 and 1894.
when our Imports from TINT Island
averaged over s75OOO,OOO per annum.
From Porto Rico the Imports for the
year will be Si.S5O.OOO, which Is less than
the total for any preceding year since
1850, and is presumably due to the de-
structlon by last years tornado of the
crops which supply Porto RIco's chief
articles Of export. From the Hawaiian
Islands the Imports for the full fiscal
year will be S2l 100000. or double the
average annual Importation FOR the
period prior to 1896. and 20 per cent,
higher than In any preceding year,
while from the Philippines, despite the
war conditions. which reduce produc-
ing and exporting power, the Imports
win be larger than in any year since
1894. y

had to vote for the measure or go on thu
record as opposed to antitrust legisla-
ton.
The present leader ~ the Democratic
party. and who will be It's candidate
for President In spite OF his grandilo-
quent and vehement attacks on the
trusts, trailing the octopus to its
lair" is not free from the faint that
clings to Democracy Of fayoring grind
ing monopoiies. Representative Little
Geld on Saturday openly accused Bryan
Of having served the sugar trust when
he was member of the house OF rep
resentatives in 1894. Everybody remem-
bers the scandal created at the time.
when Senator Carlisle tackled his sugar
schedule on the wilEon- German bill,
dictated by the sugar trust.
when this bill finally reached the
conference committee of the two
houses" says the Cleveland Leader.
President Cleveland sent letter to
Mr.. Wilson, the chairman OF the ways
and means committee, In which he ar
gusd for a duty on sugar such as the
trust had demanded. He admitted that
there was a suspicion that the schedule
had been drawn In the interest OF the
trust, but said, we ought not to be
driven away from the Democratic priu-
clple and policy which lead to the tax
alton Of sugar by the fear. quite likely
exaggerated. that in carrying out this
principle and policy we may indirectly
and Unfortunately encourage a comblna-
ton of sugar-reSnIng interests That
was an admission that the bill was de-
signed to benefit the trust. Yet 1t was
passed and Bryan voted for It.
What was the effect Of the WILSON,
German law upon the sugar refining
interest? 1t increased the duty OF 1896
per cent. nd valorem on refined sugar,
provided by the Mckinley law, to 1921
per cent. ad valorem. on refined sugar
on which there was paid an export
bounty in the country from which 1t
was exported, the Wilson German law
Imposed an ad VAlorem duty or 46OI
per cent. in place of the duty of 1921 per
cent. provided by the Mckinley Law.
The purpose OF this legislation was to
absolutely prohibit foreign competition
with the big refining trusts in this
country. and It had that effect practlc-
ally. The Wilson-Gorman law, for
which Bryan voted. put the people OF
the United States in the clutches of the
big sugar trust, and millions of dollars
were taken from the pockets Of con-
sumers under the abnormal protection
afforded to the trust by that law.
Bryan cannot go back on the record
of Congress. and he will flnd It very
difficult, indeed to pose as the cham
plon of the people and the foe OF the
trusts IN the coming campaign. 1t will
be amusing to see the Nebraskan
squirm."

After woman has once kissed for

When a girl can't get up any other
