Western States Republican.

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
remote chance OF Colorado and Utah,
us 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
Icy 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, a Democrat, is a 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 1866, an increase of S92,60S,ooS
over 1890, the largest ever known, for in
no preceding year has the increase cx'
ceeded $50,000.000.
OF the total expectations for the year
manufactured goods formed Biz per
cent, or nearly one-third, against % per
cent in 1890, 81 per cent in 1897. 23 per
cent in 1895, 20A per cent in 1889. IL
per cent in 1870, and 12M per cent in
1860.
10 put the results in still more strik-
ing way it may be stated that in 1850 the
total exports of manufactures were S4u,-
345. .S92, and in 1900 were $432. ,36ti,
while all exports in 1860 were S3333, ,o6I.'
| O57. and in 1900 we're 81, ,394, 1851
| From these figures it will be seen that
the total exports of 1900 were only foui
times greater than the total exports OF
| 1860, but the exports of manufactures
were ten times greater in 1900 than the,
were in 1860.
In other words, in 1860 manufactures
formed but 1224 per cent of the total OK
ports and in 1900 they amounted to 3ll
per cent.
These are the undcniable facts AM
figures, and they prove that not onl.
does a protective tariff protect the HON
workingman and give him high wages
but it enables the American manufac
turer to so enlarge his business that h
can successfully and pro6tably enter int
the markets of the world.

south Has Lots of Money.

The South is at last getting on self
sustaining basis, and is able to move the
cotton crop with Southern capital. Pros
perity and general development OF the in
dustries there, on account of the protect
i've tariff, have led to a great increase in
the banking facilities so that Southern
banks are now able to furnish the money
needed to handle the crop. In spite of
this great improvement in conditions, the
South will be expected to vote for free
trade, free silver, anti-eXpansion or any
other dose which the leaders of the Dem
ocratic party sees fit to concoct.

Demand for Small Coins.

Hon. George e. Roberts, director Of the
United States mint, says that never IN
the history of the nation has there been
such call for small denominations of
money-pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters.
half-dollars and one and two dollar bills.
This is the sort of money that makes
change in the retail store and is paid out
by the banks in small dealings with farm
crs and wage workers, and shows how
much of it they use.

Money in Savings Banks.

On June 80, 1899, there were over
5.20O,0O0 depositors in the savings banks
of the United Stfces as against 4,SoO,oo
in 1894, and 3,9CJ,000 in 1899. Each OF
these depositors had more money to his
account than ever before. The average
amount on deposit rising from $3.50 fol-
each person in 1894 to $419 in 1899. Il
will be terrific task for the Democratic
and Populist orators and papers of the
same ilk, to persuade this vast army Of
depositors that has steadily increased it'
savings, that prosperity is not abroad ii
the land.

Prosnerity and Charity.

Prosperity benefits largely education
and charity. That the country is pros
porous beyond what it has ever known
is proven by last years, bcnefactions.
The enormous sum of $40, ,T49,956 was
given to charity and various institutions
as compared with $33 ,6T0, 129 in 1896.
$26 6.943,549 in 1895, and $19,567 JIG. in
1891. OF the amount given in 1899 edu-
cational institutions received 500, $751; BIT,

Savings of Wage Farmers.

So steadily are the Democratic papers
and orators engaged in applying epithets
and abuse to any who are prosperous,
and speaking in tragic tones Of the con
centration of wealth." that the actual tig'
ures escape them. In 1899 the deposits
in all the banks of the United States,
national and savings, amounted 10 the
enormous sum of $7,514, 100000. OF this
great total the savings banks and the
State banks-the repositories OF the so

Prosperity Everywhere.

The most notable feature Of the great
prosperity wave is the manner in which
it has swept over the entire country. not
a single locality or a single industry es-
Gaping its stimulus. The best evidence
of this is in the bank clearings. In New
York in 1899 they increased nearly 40
per cent; in Pittshurg, 81 per cent; in
Cleveland, over 80 per cent. Seattle
showed gain of 81 per cent; Salt Lake
City, 43 per cent; Birmingham, Ala,
nearly Al per cent; Boston, 30 per cent;
Minneapolis, II per cent; and throughout
the whole country the average gain was
36 per cent over 1898 and 63 per cent
over 1897.

When the Farmer Thinks.

The farmer is wonderful and power
full force in the United States. There are
upwards of S,5O0,000 of him, as against
100000 manufacturing workers, and
only $1,000 mining workers. The farm
er is prosperous as he never was before,
and his mighty force will be felt when
he votes to have his present prosperous
condition continued. He remembers the
condition of prices of his products under
Democratic rule and shudders when he
thinks of it.

In 1894, under the Democratic free
trade in wool, the average price, accord

the Montana State Board Of Sheep Com

Dollar Bills circuIat ting.

In the four years ending in 1899 the
quantity of one dollar bills in circulation
increased from S40,000,000 TO S57,000,-
600, the two-dullar bills from S2S,000,0O0

Wool in West Virginia.

In 1895 the wool growers of West Viz
ginia were getting, under the Wilson bill,
0 to II cents for fine unwashed wool. In
1890, under prosperity and Mckinley,
they received 20 to % cents. These are
the figures from the largest dealers in
the State. Is it any wonder that West
Virginia is for Mckinley and prosperity.

Labor,. sbare of Prosperity.

That labor actually receives the great
est share of our country's prosperity is
fact carefully concealed by the calamity
howlers. Labor receives this by drawing
yearly the greater share of the products
of industry. The census of the United
States, Extra Bulletin No. CT, contains
an array of figures dealing with the man
ufacturing industries of this country, and
it shows the following figures;
1870 ........,.....S so, $40, 1O7 .62f

has yearly income nearly twice that of

will be even more interesting.
