This country is the leading export
nation OF the world. and the future
provided, always, that we have an
abundance of ships in which to send
our products abroad. But a check at
this time, when the broad foundation
for an enormous export trade is being
laid, would have a most serious and
far-reaching effect upon our people
and our resources
The stability of our foreign trade
can never be assured long 80
per cent of it is carried in foreign
ships We send three-quarters of all
our exports to Europe, and American
ships carry the ridiculous proportion
of but 1.30 per cent? Foreign ships
carry a billion dollars worth of our
products to Europe, and our own
ships carry less than thirty million
dollars worth
No greater danger confronts the
United States today than that caused
by our dependence upon foreign ships
for the carriage of nearly all of our
exports OF our exports to all the
world. less than Per cent carried in
American ships. Apart from the COM
mercia1 ca1amities possible, and. as
some people believe, probable, through
the withdrawal of the larger part of
the vast foreign shipping upon which
we are now dependent for the auxil-
larry naval and military uses of the
the sea emphasizes our only real ma
tional danger.
Congress cannot remedy this condS-
ton too soon Proper provision must
be speedily made for the attraction OF
American capital into shipbui1ding
and shipowning, SO that at the earli-
est moment possible we shall become
possessed of the ships may require
for all of the necessities of our foreign
commerce. Our export trade is close
~ approaching a billion and half
dollars in value. At its present rate
of growth less than a score of years
will find it valued at three billions and
requiring double the shipping of to-
day for it's carriage. Foreigners will,
then, have us all the more at their
mercy if we do nothing to establish
our own ships upon the seas.
Foreseeing just such a possibility
this, Thomas jefferson as long ago as
that nation which allows foreigners
to do the great bulk of its foreign
carrying will be disarmed of it's de-
Tense, its productions will be- at the
mercy of the nation which has pos
sessed itself exclusively of the means
of carrying them, and its politics may
be Influenced by those who command
its commerce." These words were pro-
phetic of a condition that actually ex-
lists in respect of the United States to-
day.

Soldiers

peace footing. ~War footing.
France has IA soldiers to every
1000 of its population; Germany more
than IL; Austria-Hungary and Russia
more than six each; Turkey and Italy
each more than seven; Great Britain
more than 51z, while the United States
has less than one soldier per 1 200 of
its population. There can surely be
no chance of the military strength of
the United States ever being increased
to the proportion that exists in Euro
pean countries.
LAS a city grows in size and extends
its area, the first thing for which the
citizens living there ask is more police
protection. Our country is like a large
city, and the bigger it grows, the better
it should be protected. But the United
States has been growing and growing
year after year, and its population has
doubled since the civil war while our
standing army has been kept nomi-
nally at $4,000 men year after year
Even our present increase above 25-
900 men is but temporary, as the law
authorizing it expires on July l. 1901
just a year from now
LAS matter of fact this country
has not been affording sufficient pro-
lection to its citizens in proportion to
their increase. IF our German friends
will study the matter in this light,
they will see that we are as far re-
moved from militaryism and imperi-
a1ism we were fifty years ago.

THE GERMAN VOTE.
GEN. DICK SAYS 1T WILL BE
CAST FOR M'KINLEY.
Democratic imperialism Scare of No Eff
fect-Teutons Stand for Sound Money
and Don't Fear Large Increase in Our
Military Force-A Question of Police

Our friends, the Democrats. are try
ing" said General Charles Dick Seere-
tary Of the Republican National COM
mittee, Ito make everybody believe
that the German vote this year will
go to the Democratic party, but there
is not the slightest likelihood of this
being the case
In 1896 the Germans voted for
President Mckinley. They are strong
believers in the advantages of a gold
standard of currency This the Repub-
lican party has given them They know
that should the Democrat candidate
for president be elected, which, of
course, would mean Democratic con-
troll of congress, then the gold stand
ard law would be repealed and free
coinage of silver Will be foisted upon
the country. The Germans do not
want this They are probably the most
1eVeI-headed European people who
come to live here They know that
they fare better here, can make and
save more money than they did in
the Fatherland, and they are not a
people who are lead away by flights
OF the Imagination.
An effort is being made to bring the
Germans into the Democratic line by
soaring them with the bugaboo of
imperialism, which it is claimed would
compel a large increase in our mill
tary forces Many of them have come
here to escape the strict military laws
that are in force in Germany and
naturally they would not favor any
thing tending in the same direction
In this country I am glad this sub
Ject has developed thus early in the
campaign, because the Germans will
have time to read and study what the
actual conditions are as to our military
forces, comparing them with their
Fatherland.
Germany has over 100000 peo-
pie Its standing army is 600 900 men,
an average of 111A soldiers to every
1000 people. The United States is
16,ooo,Oo0, and a standing army of
$4,000 men, which is equivalent to 1 sc
OF one soldier to every 1000 Of our
population While Germany has near
~ eleven soldiers more per 1000 of her
people than we have, there cannot be
the slightest chance of the effect of
Imperialism being experienced in this
country.
The following table shows the lead
ing countries of the world, with their
population, their standing army, and
the number of soldiers each country
has per 1000 of it's people:

a Great National Danger,

The present disturbed condition of
Europe, with reference to far eastern
complications, well as those arts
ing in Morocco and elsewhere has
called attention to American depend
ence upon foreign shipping for the
carriage of their foreign commerce.
If the nations of Europe should be-
come involved in great war, which
many believe to be imminent there
would be wholesale withdrawal of
foreign ships from the channels of
trade to provide transport for troops
and munitions of war.
AS nine-tenths of foreign COM
merce is carried in foreign bottoms. it
is obvious that the withdrawal of a
large portion of that shipping for 9TH
er than commercial uses would de-
prive our people of their only means
for supplying our constantly growing
foreign markets Freight rates would
rise to a prohibitive amount in re-
Spect of many of our commodities Our
surplus productions would accumulate
upon our hands In enormous Quantf-
ties, prices would fall wages would
be reduced, and industrial stagnation
and loss of employment would be wide
spread. The conditions existing be-
tween 1888 and 1896 would be re-es-
tab1ished in even a more intensified
form.
