Proofs of Prosperity from the Treas

ury bureau.
Never in the history Of the United
States has there been a more prosperous
year than that which ended June 30, last.
That is the time when the general gov
eminent makes up its books and draws
n balance to see how the nation stands,
just as merchants and manufacturers
take account Of stock at the end of their
business year.
The report for the government fiscal
year is now published and every citizen,
as a member of the great firm Of uni
ted States & Co.," may well be gratiied
at the showing We have trade in every
part OF the inhabitable globe and have
nterchanged commodities with every
people.
Our business for the year amounted to
the enormous sum of S2,243,901 ,041, sur
passing everything ever before known by
nearly $320,OOO,O00.
We sold to foreign countries merchan-
disc valued at $1,394, 1851, and we
bought from them to the value of SS49,-
714.61O. leaving balance in our favor
to be paid to us in gold. or to be credited
to future accounts, of $544.411, 1O1.
A business firm, showing balance on
it's sales in proportion like this. would
be pretty sure to feel that 1t was doing
a safe and prosperous business.

western States RepubIican,

During the present year it will be posi-
BILE to carry the States OF Idaho Nevada,
Wyoming, South Dakota and Montana
on prosperity and the wool question with
a remote chance OF Colorado and Utah,
rs wool-growing in these States is very
important industry. These States voted
for Bryan last time on the silver ques-
ton. The wool growers have received
such substantial benefits from the Ding
ley tariff act, and prices obtained are in
such strong contrast with those obtained
under the free trade tariff, that the wool
growers are convinced of the advantages
Of protection. Even the Governor of
Idaho, Democrat. is purchaser Of
sheep ranches in that State. He is talk
ing very little about free wool.

EXPORTS OF MANUFACTURES.
Products of Our Factories Are Now
Sold in All Parts of the World.

The increase in the expectation Of
American manufactures for the past year
is one of the most remarkable features Of
our foreign commerce. We now COM
pete with the nations of the world in
every market, and we more than hold our
own everywhere. Our total exports OF
manufactures for 1900 amounted to
$432, 2S4 1865, an increase Of 500, COS, 500
over 1899. the largest ever known, for in
no preceding year has the increase ex-
ceeded $5O,0OO,OOO.
or the total expectations for the year
manufactured goods formed 31h per
cent, or nearly one-third, against % per
cent in 1899. 81 per cent in 1897. % per
cent in 1895, 20A per cent in 1885, Is
per cent in 1870, and 12A per cent in
1860.
To put the results in a still more strik-
ing way it may be stated that in 1850 the
total exports of manufactures were $4O,-
345, 1892, and in 1900 were $432, 2S4, 1866,
while all exports in 1860 were 1888 ,567, ;
O57, and in 1900 were $1,39i, 1851.
From these figures it will be seen that
the total exports of 1900 were only four
times greater than the total exports of
1850, but the exports of manufactures
were ten times greater in 1900 than they
were in 1860.
In other words, in 1860 manufactures
formed but 12al per cent Of the total ex-
ports and in 1900 they amounted to 311a
per cent.
These are the undeniable facts and
figures, and they prove that not only
does a protective tariff protect the home
workingman and give him high wages,
but it enables the American manufac-
turer to so enlarge his business that he
can successfully and pro6tably enter into
the markets Of the world.

future President, and then our happy
hours begin. There have also been cele-
brated in New York and Chicago great
meetings and banquets in honor Of our
dearly beloved president, Sr. Aguinaldo,
who was entitled one of the worlds true
heroes.
THE masses who have thus voted in
our favor have done the same with ref
erence to Cuba. asking her independence,
for which she is already to-day strug-
Cling.
Finally, the conduct OF the Filipino
annexationists condemns itself. They
have changed their flag as they change
their shirts, and are animated solely by
momentary lust of stolen gold; but by
their own vile conduct, aided by their
thieving country, they are only raising
their own scaffold.

Savings of wage-Earners.

So steadily are the Democratic papers
and orators engaged in applying epthets
and abuse to any who are prosperous,
and speaking in tragic tones of the con
centration of wealth." that the actual fig
ures escape them. In 1899 the deposits
in all the banks of the United States,
national and savings. amounted to the
enormous sum of $7.514, 900, 900. or this
great total the savings banks and the
State banks-the repositories of the so
called poor people-held nearly one-half.
1t will be seen from the above figures
that wealth is far from being concen-
trated and the cry about it should be
dropped.

Prosperity Everywhere.

The most notable feature of the great
prosperity wave is the manner in which
it has swept over the entire country, not
single locality or single industry es-
Gaping its stimulus. The best evidence
Of this is in the bank clearings. In New
York in 1899 they increased nearly 45
per cent; in Pittsburg, 81 per cent; in
Cleveland, over 32 per cent. Seattle
showed a gain Of 81 per cent: Salt Lake
City, 43 per cent; Birmingham, Ala,
nearly A per cent; Boston, 30 per cent;
Minneapolis, II per cent; and throughout
the whole country the average gain was
SO per cent over 1898 and 63 per cent
over 1897.
