themselves. II would aim to bring into
the field az candidates men of charac-
ter and substance. And In the event of
the nomination by either party of an
UNIT man II could propose his defeat
and set In motion the activities neces-
sary to insure his defeat. If 1t justified
public confidence along these lines its
recommendations would soon acquire

If not, it could do no harm and would
be only a lamentable failure in

adjudication of issues not only affect
ing property but also human life. But
unlike the jury's verdict, its pronounce
ment in a particular case Is not final
but goes for review before the larger
jury of the electoral majority and can
be reversed when deemed unjust or
upon the interpositon of new evidence.
It's chief merit is not it's probable jus

although this Is considerable, but it's
furnishing Of a continuous mechanism
OF public education in political duties
and its usefulness in supplying an in

and reputable aspiration of the people
may crystallize without sacrifice of
existing party ties and without making
reform too visionary and idealistic for
the comprehension and practical ap-
proval of the masses OF our people.
This has been tried in other COM
munities and found practicable. It is
worthy of trial here.

analysis Of Our
Great Trade Growth

Washington Dee. l6.
IT IN COMMERCIAL record OF the United
States in the calendar year 1900 will sur.
u pass that ot any preceding year both in
exports and in the excess Of exports over
imports, ~ favorable balance of trade" as
This excess is usually termed The imports will
be slightly below those OF ono or two preceding
years, and when considered in their relation 10
population show smaller importation for each
individual than at almost any other period in
many wears. Basing the estimate for the year
upon the eleven months actual figures already
received by The treasury bureau Of statistics, it
seems probable that the exports Of the calendar
year 1900 will reach about $l,i7O. .OOO, 900, and
the imports >s25 5,0OO.0OO, making the excess Of
exports over Imports or favorable balance OF
trade, Ndi5, ,000 sum greater by S25 900 900
than that Of any preceding year. 1t is only
since 1873 that tho exports have with any regu-
'arity exceeded the imports or produced the
favorable balance Of trade which has almost
continuously characterized our commerce during
the last quarter Of century Yet it remained
for the closing year of the century to present
not only the highest figures of exports, but the
highest record OF excess oi exports over imports
Or favorable balance of trade, in the history OF
our commeIue.
Considering the exports alone, it may be said
that tor the calendar year 1000 they will double
those OF the calendar year 1855, be three times
those of 1872 four times those Of 1869, and five
times as much as in 1850, On the import side
the figures are less imposing They will aggre-
gate Tor the year about $50, 200, 600, against
100000 in the calendar year 1892, when they
reached the high'water mark Of the century's
imports.
O.
Considering the commerce from the per capita
standpoint, the contrast between the import and
export figures is even more phenomenal Fol-
lowing the records OF our commerce back to 1870
1t is found that the imports when considered
in the light OF the actual population have de.
creased rather thln increased, while the per
capita of exports has enormously increased. In
1870 the population was 3s,5js,37l and the i'm.
ports Si6l 0js, an average per capita of
sll.96 In 1880 and 1890 the per capita was a
little above sl3; in ls95 II had fallen TO Sll4T,
and in 1900 will be- about slo.y0 This shows
slight decrease per capita comparing 1000 with

Tho dilemma is simplitied by Mr..

Willingness to turn over new leaf but

can rally and proceed to accomplish

to need of initiative, of leadership in
our city which will be increased when
the intricate problems connected with
our transition into the second class of
cities shall press for settlement.
How can this need of leadership best

with 1850 1890. On the export side the in.
crease is even striking. In 1870 the eN.
ports per capita amounted TO Sl0.i6; in 1885, to
Sl22G: in 1890 TO Sl3oj, aud in 1000 Will be
about $19.i2. Thus the imports show since 1870
slight reduction per capita while the exports
have almost doubled per capita during the same
period.
Considering tho question of excess OF exports
over imports, or favorable balance of trade. from
the per capita standpoint. the development is
startling In 1870 imports exceeded exports by
S57.5i6,0i3 and the excess of imports over cx.
ports amounted to $50 per capita. BY 1915 the
balance had turned in our favor. but amounted
to only IL cents per capita. BY 1885 it amounted
to Sl.70 per capita, and in 1900 will amount
to about $50 per capita. Thus in the thirty
years the balance of trade has gone from a minus
quantity of $3.50 per capita to a plus quantity
Of $3.50 per capita.
