INCREASE OF COAL EXPORTS.
Likely TO Reach S2O,00o,oOo in
Value This Year

Exports of coal from the United States
during the year 1900 are likely to reach
$4,000 600 in value. against $40 600, 600 in
1895, and $4,000 600 in 1890. The figures
of the Treasury Bureau of Statistics show
that the exports of coal from the United
States during the seven months ending
with July, 1900 80 per cent in excess
of those during the corresponding months
OF last year and double those of the cor
responding months of 1898.
In the seven months ending with July.
1898. the exports of coal from the United
States were 2.375, 451 tons; in the same
months OF 1899 they were 3,0l6 0S2 tons.
and in the corresponding months of 1900
they were I Col. 1855 tons. During the pc
Rod from 1890 TO 1860 the expectation of
coal from the United States has quadru-
pied, but the principal growth has been in
the years 1898, 1899, and 1900
While this growth is observable in the
exports to all parts Of the world, it is es-
pecially marked with reference 10 our ex-
ports to the American countries To Brit
ish North America, the exports in the sew
en- months of 1898 were 17SS, 1913 tons and
in the seven months of 1900 1888. 1903 tonp
To Mexico. the exports in the seven
months of 1888 were 243, 9S8 tons and in
the corresponding months of 1900 As, S34
tons To Cuba the exports have more than
doubled. being in the seven months of 1898
114.655 tons and in seven months of 1900
241, 712 tons; while to Porto Rico the ex-
ports increased fTcn 2621 tons in the sew
en- months of 1882 to 1913 tons in seven
months of 1900.
To the Hawaiian Islands, the exports of
the seven months of 1899 were 0581 tons.
and in the corresponding months of 1900,
q col tons, thus more than doubling in
a single year. To the Philippine Islands
the exports in the seven months of 1898
were 1910 tons and in the seven months
of 1900 Il, 06S tons, or eight times as much
in 1900 as in 1898
The experiments with American coal
which the Europeans have made within
the last two or three years seem to have
proved successful, as the exports to Eu-
rope, which in the seven months of 1898
amounted to only 1907 TONS were in the
corresponding months of 1900, 27S, 572
tons Of this, 1877 tons went to the United
Kingdom, 402S tons to Germany. Il 407
tons to France, and 1865 to other Eu-
ropean countries

nett, who is not only clergyman, but a
man of affairs. In 1885, he supported Mr.,
Mckinley and carried a large vote for
him. This year he announces that he will
vote and work for Mr.. Bryan. He opposes
the present Administration, because" he
says, lit is plain that it is in close alli-
ance with Great Britain" and he is I'm
im1cal to any party, state, or association
that is in secret or open alliance with the
British Empire" Again he says: Mr..
MeKinley's Administration is mere repe-
tition Of Lord Salisbury's, and John Hay
would in my opinion, be more at home in
the cabinet of Her Majesty Queen Victo-
ria than in Mr.. MeKinIey's."
Declarations of this sort from such
sources, clearly show the direction of the
tide Of public sentiment in the country,
and are full Of encoura gement. The enc
my are ready to resort to desperate and
criminal measures if need be TO carry their
ticket through to success If they should
manage to do so, it will be the fault of
the honest people of the country in not be-
ing awake to an unusual danger of whole
sale fraud and corruption, and in not or
ganizing preventive measures. Every vot-
ing precinct in each doubtful State should
have a Democratic vigilance committee
constantly at work from now until the
seventh day of November.

While the Republican campaign manag-
ers and their organs are whistling desper-
ately to keep up their courage. in the face
of OBJECTIONS from the cause of the trusts
too numerous and personally important to
be ignored, It is evident that all hands in
the Hanna camp are badly perturbed over
this phase of the situation, and rapidly ap'
preaching a condition of panic. What the
arch boss of the Republican party natural
ly would do in such circumstances is not
hard to guess. No one, outside of the Ma
tional Committee. and perhaps the eandi-
dates, knows how many millions have been

As Vice Chairman Stone, of the Demo-

country. there is every indication
that many thousands of "colonists'' are
being hired for voting purposes in all
doubtful States, and it viii require the best
detective ability and local organization to
prevent the debauchery of the ballot, in
the same way that proved effective in the
fraudulent carrying of these States in 1886
Against such designs the party of the
people can only oppose the justice of its
cause. and its confidence that the Ameri-
can masses would preserve their National
Constitution and avoid enslavement by the
trusts and monopolies. If public feeling
on these points is as strong as there seems
reason to believe, there must be universal
confidence that the trusts cannot win the
election except by stealing it, and, with
proper vigilance. that ought to be capable
of certain prevention
