YEARS EXPORT TRADE
Promise of a Great Increase in the
Next Twelve Months.
GROWING COMMERCE With THE ORIENT
Effect of Concluding Pending Reel
procity Agreements.
THE OPEN DOOR TO CHINA

Congressman and officials of the execu-
tive branches of the government who are
following the subject realize that the year
1890 j. to he fraught with events of SUI
prene Importance to the export trade of
the United States. Not only will the year
b" record-breaker in the actual volume
at foreign commerce. but the way will be
paved tor an enormous extension of trade
for the future.
Within the past year the administration
has sci on foot number of plans destined
l. work to the advantage of American pro-
ducers. and the coming year will witness
1he beginning of their fruition. Figures
vii! bear out the statement that no nation
of the earth has made in SO short a time
such tremendous strides in international
commerce rs the United States within
the past three years. Based upon the
experience Of the past, and with a
knowledge of the practical steps being
taken 10 bring ii about, the prophecy may
b. safely ventured that the United States

control of the archipelago. 1t was urged
at the outset OF the negotiations for the
Philippines that their supreme commercial
value to the United States would be as a
base in the far east for the expansion of
American commerce in all the orient Far
seeing statesmen foretold the coming di-
vision of Chinese commerce among the
powers of the earth. and were. insStent
that the United States should have its
share.
The reciprocity arrangements with sew
eral countries which are now pending in
Congress will. if ratified, give an impetus
to the export trade. There is, to be sure
question whether they will be ratified but
the best opinion is that the opposition of
some special Industries will be borne down
by the demand for ratification in the inter-
est of the general commercial good. 1t is
claimed that the opposition is based upon
misrepresentation.
The treaty with Argentina is being OPP
posed, for instance, by the wool growers
because it reduces TIE protection which
American " DOL growers now get by 20 per
cent. But the trainers of the treaty ex-
plain that We must import certain classes
and some amounts of wool. the importa-
lions last year being &C. $50 900 pounds less
than S.6S,OOO pounds Of which came from
Argentina, because mainly third-class wool
Is brought from that country. On the other
hand. this country obtains concessions
through which many classes of American
manufactures and farm produce are to be
admitted into Argentina at a reduced rate
sumption of those goods.
Pending Reciprocity Treaties.
The treaties with Jamaica, Bermuda Bar
BADGES, British Guiana and other Caribbean
colonies of Great Britain will promote our
exports in return for lower duties on sugar
and fruit. The California fruit growers are
opposing the Jamaica treaty on the score
of competition. The Californians also OBJ
jected to The French treaty, letting in
French wines, until it was discovered that
greater market was also made for Cali
fornia wines in France. where they are
now used extensively in admixture with the
product of the French vineyards.
Boot and shoe industries in New Eng
land, and a few other interests. complain
because the French treaty excludes them
but the treaty benefits several hundred
other industries. many of them equally aS
important and all worthy as the New
England Industries which object. Ii is con-
hdently claimed that the general effect of
these treaties will be TO swell the volume
of exports measurably within Il year
If the Presidents suggestion of free trade
with Puerto Rico is adopted it win be an
other drop in the bucket. for it is said that
American capital is waiting 10 rush in and
the consuming ability Of the island will
rapidly grow.
1t Is estimated by the bureau of stalls
tics that the consuming power of Cuba
Puerto Rico Hawaii and the Philippines
under present conditions is about SOD 900
On year. The United States should get
the bulk of the trade. and as conditions
improve the volume of trade should in
crease regularly and in Il marked degree.
