In making such outlays. the govern
ment has to some extent recognized
the needs OF the country for shipbuild,
ing facilities on our Pacfflc coast, ana
has aided the development of such
plants by placing a small part of It's
orders with yards there. TINS has been
wise as far as it has gone, but our
national wants in this direction have
grown almost as greatly and as sud
denly as the tabled gourd. 1t Is likely
that the proportion of our navy hence-
forward stationed in Pacific waters
will represent more than all the new
vessels added in the next ten years
The needs OF these changes should
be promptly met. More and better
ship yards on our Pacific coast Will be
required. They can be had as Wen as
upon the Atlantic coast, II our govern
ment Will give them like encourage
ment. The Atlantic coast yards, by
the aid of naval work during the past
twenty years, have attained state

Is trifiing-nothing at all compared
with the benefits flowing to both gov

tons. 1t is earnestly recommended
that the measure now or soon TO come
before congress for building vessels to
be used in Asiatic or insular waters
should provide for the placing of all
such vessels with Pacific coast build
ers at the customary differential, and
under such further regulations that as
many yards there as possible VIII be
encouraged TO compete for their con-
struction.
With this as beginning, all subse-
Quent acts providing for the building
of naval vessels should place in SINH

number of vessels representing the
proportion intended for use or likely TO
be used In the Pacific ocean or its
waters. With such a policy, a growth

such substantial benefits from the Ding

under the free trade tariff, that the wool

EXPORTS OF MANUFACTURES.
Products of Our Factories Are NO"
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 Oh
our foreign commerce. We now com
nete with the nations of the world IN
every market, and we more than hold our
own everywhere. Our total exports OF
manufacturers for 1900 amounted to
S432 2S4. 1866, an increase Of $92,6OS,ooo
over 1899, the largest ever known tor III
no preceding year has the increase eX-
ceeded $50000,0OO.
or the total expectations for the year
manufactured goods formed 3l12 per
cent or nearly One-third, against 20 per
cent in 1899, 81 per cent in 1897, IS per
cent in 1895. 20A per cent in 1888, ID
per cent in 1870, and l2A per cent IN
1850.
To nut the results in a still more strlk-
ing way il may be stated that In looo the
total exports Of manufactures were @fu,'
315. s92. and in 1900 were $432 .2Sl, 366'
while all exports in 1860 were 333,o6I,
or and in 1900 were 1884, 1851
From these figures it will be seen thai
the total exports Of 1900 were only foul
times greater than the total exports OF
| 1850. but the exports of manufacture
were ten times greater in 1900 than the!
were in 1860.
In other words, in 1860 manufacture
formed but 12A per cent of the total ex
ports and in 1900 they amounted to 81
per cent.
These are the undeniable facts an
figures. and they prove that not oni
does a protective tariff protect the nom
workingman and give him high wages
but il enables the American manufa'
turer to so enlarge his business that h
can successfully and protitably enter I'M
a., ,,orL.ats of thp world.

prosoeritv Everywhere.

The most notable feature Of the great
prosperity wave is the manner in when
il has swept over the entire country, not
a single locality or single industry es-
Gaming its stimulus. The best evidence
of this is i'm the bank clearings. In New
York in 1899 they increased nearly 40
nor cent: in Pittsburg, 81 per cent; in
Cleveland, over 80 per cent. Seattle
showed a gain of u per cent; Salt Lake
City. 43 per cent; Birmingham, Ala
nearly "A per cent; Boston, 80 per cent
Minneapolis, II per cent; and throughout
the whole country the average gain was
