THE balance of trade in favor Of the
United States during the present Admin
istration has reached the incredible sum
ofSl ,4sS, 100000, an amount that passes
the power of comprehension. The bal
ance of trade in favor Of the United States
during all the Administrations that pre-
ceded that Of Mckinley, from Washing
ton 10 Cleveland inclusive, was $685., 3,OOO,-
900. To put the matter in another way,
the three years of the Mckinley Admin
istration have seen trade balance ST.
100,O0O,0O0 greater than was accumulated
during the century preceding his in
auguration. The advance agent of pros
perity has made good his promises, has
done ten times more than he promised,
and the people who know good thing
when they see it will be slow to change
such certainty for doubtful promises.
