EXPORTS OF MANUFACTURERS.
Products of Our Factories Are Now
Sold In All Parts of the World.

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, 1866, an increase Of $92, Cos, 5OS
over 1899, the largest ever Known, for in
no preceding year has the increase ex-
ceeded $50,O0O,0O 0
OF the total expectations for the year
manufactured goods formed BIZ per
cent, or nearly one-third, against % per
cent in 1899, ~ per cent in 1897, % per
cent in 1895. 20A per cent in 1885, Is
per cent in 1870, and 12A per cent in
1860.
To put the results in a still more strik-
ing way it may be stated that in 1860 the
totalsexports of manufactures were S4O,-
345,S92, and in 1900 were $432, 22S4, 1866,
while all exports in 1850 were 1898 ,587,-
057, and in 1900 were 1894, 1856, 371,
From these figures it will be seen that
the total exports of 1900 were only four
times greater than the total exports Of
1850, but the exports of manufactures
were ten times greater in 1900 than they
were in 1850.
In other words, in 1860 manufactures
formed but 12A per cent of the total ex-
ports and in 1900, they amounted to 31h
per cent.
These are the %undeniable facts and
figures, and they prove that not only
does a protective tariff protect the home
workingman and give him high wages,
but it enables the American manufac-
turer to so enlarge his business that he
can successfully and proftably, enter into
the markets of the world.

COMMERCE AND FINANCE.
Proofs of Prosperity from the. Treas
SID ury Bureau.

ury Bureau.
Never in tae history of the United
States has thefe been a more prosperous
year than that which ended June 80, last.
That is the time when the general gov
eminent makes up its books and draws
a balance to see how the nation stands,
just as merchants and manufacturers
take account Of stock at the end of their
business year.
The report for the government fiscal
year is now published and every citizen,
as a member Of the great firm Of ""Uni-
ted States G. Co.," may well be gratifed
at the showing. We have trade in every
part Of the inhabitable globe and have
~interchanged commodities with every
people.
Our business for the year amounted to
the enormous sum of S 2,243, 9O1, 041, sur
passing everything ever before known by
nearly 1920, 100000.
We sold to foreign countries merchan-
disc valued at $1,394, 1851, and we
bought from them to the value Of $780,
714,67O, leaving a balance in our favor
to be paid to us in gold, or to be credited
to future accounts, of $544,471,7 O1.
A business firm. showing a balance on
its sales in a proportion like this, would
be pretty sure to feel that it was doing
a safe and prosperous business.

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
a remote chance Of Colorado and Utah,
as wool-growing in these States is a 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
ley 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 q purchaser of
sheep ranches in that State. He is talk
ing very little about free wool.

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 industryse s-
Gaping it's stimulus. The best evidence
of this is in the bank ~clearings. In New
York in 1899 they increased nearly As
per cent; in Pittsburg, 81 per cent; in
Cleveland, over 80 per cent. Seattle
showed a gain Of 81 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
SO per cent over 1898 and SO per cent
over 1897.

Money in Savings Banks.

On June 80, 1899, there were over
5000, 900 depositors in the savings banks
Of the United States as against 100000
in 1894. and 100000 in 1899. Each Of
these depositors had more money to his
account than ever before. The average
amount on deposit rising from 1850 for
each person in 1894 to $419 in 1899. It
will be a 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 its
savings, that prosperity is not abroad in
the land.

South Has Lots of Money,

The South is at last getting On a 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 q 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.

The Price of Wool.

The Yakima Wool Growers Associa-
ton Of North Yakima. WASH. says that
wool in that State, according to grade,
sold in 1894 at from 81 cents to 10 cents
per pound; in 1895 from 6 cents to 10
cents per pound; in 1896 from IN cents
to IL cents per pound; and in 1899, under
Mckinley prosperity. it sells from Is
cents to 20 cents per pound.

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 a call for small denominations Of
contemporaries, nickels, dimes, quarters.
half-dollars and one and two dollar bills.
This is, the sort Of money that makes
changesin the retail store and is paid out
by the banks in small dealings with farm
ers md wage workers, and shows how
much Of it they use.

Wool In Montana.

In 1894, under the Democratic free
trade in wool, the average price, accord
ing to the official figures furnished by
the Montana State Board of Sheep Com
missioners of that State, was 9 cents per
pound. In 1899, under Mckinley and
prosperity, it was 16 2-3 cents per pound.
and this year contracts have been made
at 20 to % cents.

Dollar Bills Circulating,

In the four years ending in 1899 the
quantity of one dollar bills in circulation
increased from $4,000 900 to $1,000
900, the two-dollar bills from $2S, 900
to $4,000 900, and ive-dollar bills from
$245, 900 to 1921, 100000. These are
the denominations that go into the hands
of the wage workers, and the above fig
ures are most instructive.

Wool in West Virsinia,

In 1895 the wool growers Of West Vir-
ginia were getting, under the Wilson bill.
8 to II cents for fine unwashed wool. In
1899, under prosperity and Mckinley,
they received 20 to 25 cents. These are
the figures from the largest dealers in
the State. Is it any wonder that West
Virginia is for Mckinley and prosperity.

The farmer is a wonderful and power
full force in the United States. There are
upwards of 9,5O0,00O Of him. as against
100000 manufacturing workers. and
only $4,000 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.

There is a tendency towards rowdy-
ism in nearly all the great colleges Of
the eastern states which is COMPARE
lively unknown in the Oregon insti-
tutions OF higher learning. Whether
our young people are of higher order
or there is something superior in our
educational methods is a debatable
question. Such disgraceful scenes as
the jeering and hooting at Bryan by the
students of the University of Michi-
gan. the second largest university in
the country. are not only common in
the large institutions but are considered
smart and proof Of manliness rather
than boorishness. The universities of
Oregon and the state itself are to be
congratulated upon the absence Of this
type of the modern scholastic hobo.

TRYING TO FOOL THE FARMERS.

American Economist.
What does the Republican party do
to help the farmer? Has it any means
Of raising the price Of what he has to
sell?" Bryan said to Virginia farmers.
Yes. Mr.. Bryan it has, and very ef-
ficiert means 1t is called a protective
tariff. more specifically the Dingley
law. 1t helps the farmer. because it
insures a home market. and a home
market raises the price Of wheat the
farmer has to sell.
You well know, Mr.. Bryan. that the
farmer sells 90 per cent Of his product
at home. In many cases he sells his
whole product at home. II his country
men are working and getting good wag-
es they want all he can raise, and when
that is the case he gets more for his
product than when there is no demand
for it.
DO you know of anything, Mr.. Bry-
an. which the farmer produces that is
net higher in price than when the Will
son law, which you helped to frame.
was in operation?
Wool is almost twice as high. Sheep
and lambs bring three and four times
as much. Cotton. tobacco, wheat and
all kinds Of grain and provisions are
much higher. 1t would be waste Of
time to show that farm products have
increased in value. The farmers well
know it. Mr. Bryan, and you know it,
too. What has cancelled the mort
cages? What has filed the banks?
Why Mr.. Bryan. the free-trade law
which you helped to make brought a
loss Of $4,283,OOQOOO in farm products,
while the Dingley law has brought an
increase in value to the amount
of $685., ,OOOOOO and yet you ask:
HAS the Republican party any means
of raising the price Of what the far
Iner has to sell?"
Carp at the full dinner pail, if you
will. Mr.. Bryan, but the farmer, who
fills 1t with bread and butter and eggs
and ham and potatoes and cheese and

When the dinner nail is full the lunch
counter is loaied. and the dining table
is heaped with not only accessories but
luxuries. And the breakfast table and

too Don't YOU know, Mr., Bryan. that
We eat twice as much under protec-
tion as we do under free-trade? That
is the means We have OF raising the
