The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1900-01-31

Even many gold democrats would
undoubtedly accept William Jennings
Bryan as presidential candidate If
they believed that before and after
election he would be silent and mac
tive on his silver views, but Mr.. Bryan
is one Of the most consistent and per-
sistent nlono-metalists in the world.
He has no more idea of giving up his
l6 to craze than he has Of giving up
his breath. With it as leading fea-
ture Of the democratic platform he
now proposes some new planks that
are. almost as certain to divide his
party as the financial question. Unless
the gold democrats should support
Mckinley directly for reelection, there
win certainly be three, if not more,
presidential tickets in the field. 1t
does not require much of a mathema-
tician to estimate the result. The re-
publican party win be solid, with gains
from all the doubtful. and the vote for
ali the other candidates will be badly
divided.
The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1900-01-31

the previous year our exports exceed
ed those OF Great Britain by almost
one hundred million dollars, but at
that time our exports were twenty
millions smaller than for the year 1899.
In the race for supremacy in the
worlds export trade. the United
States has been making wonderful
strides. This is made evident by the
comparison Of 1875 with last year. In
1875 our total was only S497, 7,26S, ,7s7
while those of Great Britain were ST.
6S7, ,4s7, ,OOo, an excess over those Of the
United States of $500. 233,O 900. Yet in
that quarter century, that IS, from
1915 TO 1890, the exports Of the United
States have increased enc hun
dred and fifty-two per cent,
while those of Great Britain have in.
creased only nineteen per cent, show
ing how remarkable mas been the
growth of the American export trade
1t is also interesting 20 study the fig
ures of imports for the two periods,
1875 and 1899. In 1875 the United
States imported s5O3, 1926 worth of
foreign goods and Great Britain i'm
ported foreign goods worth 1913. 49,
600. In 1899 the value Of American i'm
portatioD Of foreign commodities was
S799SS4,S2O an increase of a little less
than three hundred millions. while
Great Britain's imports Of foreign
goods were valued at 1880 500, 900, an
increase of over 4 billion lollars. It
is found by comparison of import fig
ures with those OF exports for the quar-
ter OF 4 century under considera-
tion that the United States had an
excess Of exports every year save 1888
and that Great Britain jmportatlons
exceeded her expectations COR every
year ir the period. In 1875 our excess
Of exports over imports was but g.
794,48s and in 1899 It ,,ad risen to s475.-
G52,O2l, while on the other hand Great
Britain's imports exceeded her exports
in 1875 by s44S,S14,OOO and in 1899 by
56,22i,Sl5. During the quarter zen.
tury the exports of the .'nited States
exceeded in value our imports by the
enormous sum Of $3.50, 5s4, 900, while
the excess Of iHpuit9 into Great Brit
ain during the same period aggregat-
ed the far greater sum Of $I4.iS3.oOt. D)0.
