TO the Editor of the Democrat:
Whether there will be a contest as to
the location of the South end school
house, do not know But do know
that West Siders west OF railroads.
will make a strong pull to secure
the plum. However, 1t must be one
sided contest, as the advantages Of
locating the educational plant east Of
the railroads are so numerous and i'm
portant that 1t leaves the west side
without an argument The east side
Is entitled to the site for the follow
Ing reasons. and l will not mention
half:
First, II located on the high ground

Second from sanitary standpoint,
1t Is above smoke and malaria, with a
superb lay of land for sewerage and

smells, as our prevailing winds are
westerly.
Fourth, the distance travelled by
students will be more evenly divided.
Fifth, there are no marshes or ma
laria breeding swamps in this vicinity,
Sixth, while west slders may have
some very poor reasons for wanting
the school established on their side,
they cannot advance single reason
why 1t should not be located on the
east side.

was against the resolution, and the
Democrats to a man were in its favor.
In the negative votes are included
those of Senators Jones and Stewart,
of Nevada, whose Populistic zeal
against the trusts has cooled off with
the collapse of the free silver issue.
and who have naturally drifted back
into the Republican party.
One of the tasks which now occu.
pies the Republican leaders in and out
of Congress Is the construction of an
antitrust platform for their national
convention in such way as to retain
the support Of the great Industrial
and at the same time
amuse the people with deceptive prom
ises. In view of the history Of the Re.
publican party's connection with the
trusts from the beginning down to the
eve Of the national convention this will
be an extremely difficult undertaking.
When Senators Hanna, Elkins, Sewell
and Foraker shall have launched their
antitrust program the people will be
apt to remind them Of their speeches
and votes on the Berry amendment
on the first day of May.

A gratifying increase in the amount and
variety of American products entering
Turkish ports has been noted of late, ac
cording to report to the State Depart
ment from Consul General Dickinson at
Constantinople. Wire nails and other ar
tces of American manufacture. says the
consul, have taken complete session of
the Levantine markets. and when other
staple articles of American make are once
thoroughly introduced their market in Tur-
key also can be controlled by our manufac-
turers. Consul General Dickinson reports
an innovation in the shape of orders for
American boots and shoes from leading
Turkish merchants, their undeniable supe-
riority over the European product assuring
extensive sale in Turkey. The greater part
to be used in constructing the new Nile
railway, will be furnished, it is said, by
American manufacturers.

Action Taken in the Case of Lieut..
Hazard.
By direction of the President First Lieut..
Samuel c. Hazard. LIST United States Ar
til,ery, has been dropped from the rolls of
the army for desertion, to take effect May
81. There is a scandal connected with this
case, but the details are not forthcoming.
Lieut. Hazard was stationed at Tampa,
Fla, and disappeared from that post Feb
ruary 2S last, since which time nothing has
been heard of him. It is reported that be-
fore his departure he cashed a number of
worthless checks and borrowed al large
sum of money; also that he was short in
his accounts. Another allegation was that
he had run off with woman with whom
he had become infatuated and from whom
it is said, he borrowed 5000. A general or
der was issued for his arrest, but he man.
aged to keep out of the clutches of the
law. What aggravates his offense is that
he leaves a wife and family in New York.
Lieut. Hazard is a native of Pennsylva-
mia and a graduate of the United States
Military Academy of the class of June, 1888.
He reached the grade of first lieutenant
in March, 1899 Prior to his assignment to
duty in Florida he occupied the important
post of adjutant at the Military Academy.
He is dropped as a deserter under the
statute authorizing such action in the case
of an officer absent without leave for a
period of ninety days.

EXPORTS FROM THIS COUNTRY.
Large, increase In Their Value to the
New Dependencies.

EXPORTS from the United States to Cuba,
Porto Rico and the Hawaiian. Philippine
and Samoan Islands will reach $45,OOO,OO0
in the fiscal year, which ends With the pres
ent month"; and will be more than three
times as much as in 1876. and more than
twice as much as in any year OF our COM
merce with those islands, except in the
years 1892 1898 and 1894. when reciprocity
greatly increased our exports to Cuba and
Porto Rico. To Cuba the total for the
fiscal year seems likely to be fully s25, 100000
against 81 100000 in the fiscal year 1896
and s24, 157, 900 in the great reciprocity year
1893 when exports to that island were more
than double those of five years earlier. To
Porto Rico the exports of the year will
be, in round terms, $2,6OO,OO0, against an
average of s2,I50,O0O in the reciprocity
wears 1892, 1898 and 1894, when exports to
that island were double those of earlier
years. To the Hawaiian Islands the total
for the year will be about $l5eooooo, or
five times as much as in 1893, nearly four
tunes as much as in 1885, and more than
double the total for 1885, To the Philip
pines the total for 1900 will be about $780,
600, or more than in the entire fifteen years
since 1855 the date at which the first rec
made by the treasury bureau of statistics.
To the Samoan Islands the exports of the
year will be about sl2o,00o, or nearly as
much as in all the years since 1886, at
which date the official records OF our eX-
ports to these islands began.
On the import side. Cuba begins to show
something of her old-time strength as an
exporting island, as the total imports into
the United States from Cuba for the fun
year will show a total of thirty-one million
dollars, against fifteen millions in 1888 and
eighteen and half millions in 1897, thoush
they still are less than the average for
the reciprocity years 1892, 1893 and 1871
when our imports from that island averaged
over seventy-five million dollars per annum
From Porto Rico the imports of the year
to.o, for any preceding year since 1880. and
is presumably due to the destruction by
last years tornado of the crops which sup
nIy Porto Ricos chief articles of export.
From the Hawaiian Islands the imports for
the full fiscal year will be s21,00o,oo0. or
double the average annual importation for
the period prior to 1896, and 20 per cent
higher than in any preceding year, while
from the Philippines, despite the war con-
djtions. which reduce producing and export
ing power the imports will be larger than
in any years since 1894.

the native town.
Santa Ana's old church shows conspicu-
ously as seen from the Pasig, and the town
pushes large buildings and fine residences
to the very edge of the river. Here native
laundries are in full operation on stone
steps descending to the river, and, Yonder-
full to relate. men are assisting in the ope-
ration. If the male Filipino will do laun-
dry work and the back-breaking labor of
rice cultivation he should be found ready to
work at anything. Here a treadmill.
worked by boys. is in operation at the wa
ter's edge. serving the purpose Of the
Egyptian shaduf in raising water from the
river with which to flood the rice fields.
Now we see a carabao water-buffalo
drawing the pillow in field on the bank.
At this point a two-storied Filipino dwell
ing is being transported exclusively by
human muscle to another location.
Fortress-Like San Pedro Macatf.
At San Pedro Macati We catch a glimpse
of the old church. but the conspicuous sight
is the old Spanish barracks. whose high
stone walls project fortress-like to the very
edge of the stream. The native huts along
the bank are mainly of bamboo matched
with nipa palm. but are of all shapes and
sizes, and some of them present a patch
work appearance, being of varied material,
in which tin cans enter as a factor, as in
the pauper settlement at the Hot Springs,
Arkansas. The banana is the tropical tree
most frequently seen. Many kilns are
visible, used for making brick and
