During the present year it will be posi-.
bic to carry the States of Idaho, Nevada,
Wyoming. South Dakota and Montana
on prosperity and the wool question, with
Q remote chance of Colorado and Utah,
as wool-growing in these States is n 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 a purchaser of
sheep ranches in that State. He is talk.
ing very little about free wool.

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

Never In the history. Of the United
States has there 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 x 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 $2,243,901 .041, sur
passing everything ever before known by
nearly $320.000OO0.
We sold to foreign countries merchan-
disc valued at S1.394. 1851, and we
bought from them to the value of $780,
714.670, leaving n balance in our favor
to be paid TO us in gold. or to be credited
to future accounts. OF $544, Al, T01.
A business firm. showing "A balance on
its sales in proportion like this, would
be pretty sure to feel that it was doing
a safe and prosperous business.

their own scaffold.

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 fig
ures escape them. In 1899 the deposits
in all the banks OF the United States,
national and savings, amounted to the
enormous sum OF $7,514. 0OO.000. OF this
great total the savings banks and the
State banks-the repositories of the so.
called poor people-held nearly one-half.
1t will be seen from the above figures
that wealth is far from being concen-
trated and the cry about 1t should be
dropped

"SIG. DOMINGO SAMSO,
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. 1865, an increase of S92, Cos, sos
over 1899, the largest ever known, for in
no preceding year has the increase ex-
ceeded S5O.O00,OO0.
or the total expectations for the year
manufactured goods formed 31h per
cent, or nearly one-third, against % per
cent in 1899. q per cent in 1897, % per
cent in 1895, 20A per cent in 1885. Is
per cent in 1870. and 1873 per cent in
1860.
To put the results in a still more strik-
ing way it may be stated that in 1860 the
total exports Of manufactures were S4O,-
345, S92, and in 1900 were S432. 2S4, 1865,
while all exports in 1860 were 1898 ,567, :
0j7, and in 1900 were $1,394, 1851.
From these figures 1t will be seen that
the total exports of 1900 were only four
times greater than the total exports OF
1860, but the exports of manufactures
were ten times greater in 1900 than they
were in 1860.
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 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 profitably enter int
the markets of the world.

as compared with S33 1910, 100 in 1896,

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 single industry es-
Gaping its stimulus. The best evidence
OF this is in the bank clearings. In New
York in 1899 they increased nearly A
per cent; in Pittsburg, 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 A per cent; Boston. 30 per cent;
Minneapolis, II per cent; and throughout
the whole country the average gain was
80 per cent over 1898 and 90 per cent
over 1897.
