Trouble with Turkey.
GROWTH Or FOREIGN TRADE.
Remarkable Record OF Industrial Progress
Tax Reduction.

htuutttOns
Our foreign trade shows q remark
able record of commercial and indus
trial progress. The total OF imports
and exports for the first time in the
history Of the country exceeded two
billions of dollars. The exports are
greater than they have aver been be-
Tore, the total for the fiscal year 1900
being 81, 1874, 4S3, 0S2, an increase over
1899 of $l67, 459, $50. an increase over 1898
OF 1853, 900, 752, owe 1897 Of $343, 4S9, 526,
and greater than 1896 by SSH, $40, 144.
The growth OF manufactures in the
/ United States is evidenced by the fact
that exports OF manufactured products
largely exceed those of any previous
year, their value for 1900 being $43S,-
S51, 756, against 1889, 592, LAG in 1899, an
increase OF 28 per cent.
Agricultural products were also eX-
ported during 1900 in greater volume
han IN 1899, the total for the year be-
ing 1896, S5S. 1923, against 1884, 776, 142 in
1899.
Increase In Imports.
The imports for the year amounted
to $S49, 941, 1874, an increase over 1899 Of
$152. 1872. $50. This increase is largely i'm
materials for manufacture, and is in
! response to the rapid development Of
manufacturing In the United States.
While there was imported for use in
manufactures I'm 1900 material to the
value of $40, 76S, 972 in excess Of 1899, it
is reassuring to observe hal there is
a tendency toward decrease in the i'm
portation of articles manufactured
ready for consumption, which in 1900
formed 1917 per cent OF the total inn
ports, against 1854 per cent In 1899 and
u. 90 per cent in 1896.
l recommend that the congress at it's
present session reduce the internal
revenue taxes imposed to meet the ex-
penses Of the war with Spain In tho
sum Of thirty millions of dollars. This
reduction should be secured by the re-
mission of those taxes which expert
ence has shown to be the most burden
some to the industries Of the people.
i specially urge that there be includ-
ed in whatever reduction is made the
legacy tax, requests for public uses OF

MIDAS STARvEDoN GOLD.

The expansion we need is in the vol
umc of our money,-in our CURRENCY
and 1t is n matter too important TO be
entrusted to any private hands or to
any less rower than the sovereignty of
all. 1t is Il self-evident proposition that
as we grow in territory. population.
production. consumption and business,
we need more money and greater
supply of the mediums of circulation
and exchange, adapted to all wants and
uses, and especially to those of labor
and the laborins men. who are vastly
in the majority, and yet must have
cash. as they have no available credit.
But, with mad mania for expansion in
everything else. our Plutocratic rulers.
In the name OF the Republican party,
are rapidly closing the sour es of mon
ey and contracting our currency.
Yet we are told that our currency is
greater than ever before though our
only current money-metal is demone-
tized and even our silver dollars are to
be made mere tokensl Gold. which
never was and never will be, nor can
be. popular medium OF circulation ana
exchange. is counted to swell the fig
ures of our currency; but it is too high
to be reached by the People. and too
costly to be used by them; and the last
issue of slS.0O0,009 of gold certificates
was in large denominations. with none
for less than $50. This is feeding CRATES
in the tops of trees when the common
herd are starving for lack of grazing.
