TRADE WITH THE TROPICS.

BY GENERAL JAMES H. WILSON, U. S. A.
[From his address before the American Free
Trade League, Nov. 8, 1901
I believe that the greatest benefit con-
ferred on the American people by the
Federal Constitution after creating the
machinery of government for more
perfect union and providing for the COM
mon defense, arises from the inhibitions
of the constitution, which forbid the
sovereign states and the congress alike
from levying or collecting any tax or ex-
port duty on goods, wares, and mer-
chandise sent out of the states, or out of
the country at large. believe that the
free trade between the states, which re-
suits from these inhibitions, has done
more than any or all other influences
combined to make not only the states
themselves rich and powerful, but the
United States, as whole, the richest
and most powerful nation on the earth.
tween the states is primarily due the
wonderful development Of our steam
boat and railroad system, which in turn
enables the producer and merchant to
lay down our natural and manufactured
products at tide water at lower cost
than those of any other country If
am correct in this generalization, it is
this absolute freedom Of interstate trade
which, with equal ocean freight rates,
is now giving us the markets of the
world.
Inasmuch as under the Monroe Doc
trine, which one of our most disting-
uished statesman has declared to be as
much if not more commercial than it is
political we have assumed the burden
of protecting the neighboring states
from foreign aggression, the question
naturally arises, why should we not try
to get some commercial advantage from
them which, while it may make them
richer and stronger, would, in meas

ure, compensate us for our trouble and
expense? They are clearly under the
American hegemony, and, if the Mon
roe Doctrine is to be maintained, they
are clearly within the American system
IF public law.
Under this aspect of our relations
with them, why should the United
States not say frankly to all the states
of North America, at least, we will
agree to absolute and reciprocal free
trade in natural and manufactured
products, between our country and all
its dependencies, wherever situated, on
the one hand, and all the Immediately
neighboring countries on the other,
under uniform tariff to be agreed up
on by the parties to the arrangement,
and to be carried into effect as against
all other countries? 1t would doubtless
be rejected at first by one or more of the
countries interested, and would certain
ly meet with the opposition of the pro-
tected interests everywhere. Much dis
cussion would necessarily follow before
the public mind could be brought to
understand and accept it, but I do not
doubt that the time will come when
this measure, or some modification of
it, will be adopted by every North
American state and dependency. I do
not venture to suggest its extension to
the South American republics for the
present. Obviously, it's immediate ef-
feet would be to unite the countries ac-
ceding to it into commercial union or
zollverein, with an aggregate population
of something like 100,000,O00 of people,
about 35,00O,000 of whom, now living
outside Of the United States, would
henceforth sell their raw materials and
natural productions to us and buy most
of their manufactured goods and pro-
visions from u.s. If this arrangement
were at the same time connected with a
stipulation on our part that the United
States would respect the political indie
pendence and the territorial integrity of
the states entering into commercial
union with us, would it not also end
their apprehension of conquest and
benevolent assimilation, and to man.
kind at large amount to solemn dedi-
cation of the entire continent forever to
the cause Of peace? Would it not great
ly enrich us as we'll as our commercial
allies, and at the same time become a
better common defense against the
European coalition with which we are
now so frequently threatened, than any
number of battleships we could build or
any army we could raise and put in the
field?
Speaking from my own observation
and somewhat extended study of the
question, have not the slightest doubt

which he comes, and there is absolutely
no reason why he shouldn't be. In the
first place the climate and temperature
Of Cuba and Porto Rico are at all times
better and more equable than in any of
our States in the Missippi Valley south
of the Ohio and Missouri rivers 1t is
warmer and more balmy in winter and
cooler and more agreeable in summer in
those islands than it is in Tennessee,
Arkansas, Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi,
Alabama, Florida, Georgia, or South
Carolina, and no one can properly
claim, since the War of the Rebellion
and the economic reconstruction that
followed the abolition of slavery, that
the white man has physically degene-
rated in any of our Southern States.
Cuba is the best country in the world
for the production Of sugar as we'll as Of
high class tobacco. Its lands lie better
and are more fertile, while there are
more of them adapted to that industry
than can be found in any other island
or country, yet to be brought under
cultivation. The area of Cuba is about
forty three thousand square miles, or
twenty-seven million five hundred
thousand acres, the most of which is
suitable for either sugar, tobacco, coffee,
fruits or cattle raising. 1t is one of the
most beautiful and fertile countries of
the world and I do not hesitate to give
it as my opinion that, with it's varied
resources developed, it is worth more to
us than any equal area in the United
States except New York, Pennsylvania,
Ohio and Illinois, and more than any
other country in the world except Can
ada. 1t is, indeed, one of the most
beautiful, healthful and inviting islands
under the sun; and, while it lies just
within the tropics, it can hardly be
called tropical. Thrust out into the
ocean for seven hundred miles, it's
climate is everywhere mitigated by the
trade winds and the balmy air of the
surrounding seas. 1t is commonly be-
lieved that it can supply the whole
world with sugar, but this is undoubt-
edly an extravagant exaggeration
While the land is generally fertile, it
would be far from the truth to assert
that it is all good for sugar. From the
best evidence can gather, its capacity
in that direction with the product
fetching two cents net is probably not
to exceed three million tons, and even
with the free entry of sugar into the
United States, it would be many years
before the limit could be reached. Its
tobacco, however. is the best in the
world for cigars and cigarettes, and
while there are several extensive and
widely separated regions adapted to it's
cultivation there is but one Vuelta

SUGAR INDUSTRY IS
PROSPEROUS, SAYS STUBS
Former Experimental Station Director
Says Some Pleasant Things About
Hawaiian Investigations in Report.

When William c. Stubs, director
of the Louisiana Experimental Station,
visited the sugar interests of the ISL
ands in the Hawaiian group, he devot-
ed considerable time and attention to
careful study Of cane production for
the purpose of making comparisons
with the conditions found elsewhere
in Uncle Sans domain.
The local Agricultural Bureau has
received report from Director Stubbs
which was submitted to the Secretary
of Agriculture at Washington. He
goes on to state that owing to the
unusually favorable conditions sugar
growing is not only the leading agrl-
cultural occupation, but is the princi-
pal industry o. the islands, the ex-
ports of sugar being more than so per
cent of the total exports Of the islands.
At present, he states, this industry is
in a very prosperous condition, but
other Agricultural industries are either
not well developed or are not in pro-
fitable condition. He found that conee
growing is diminishing, and the other
large agricultural crop, rice, is now
grown on up-to-date principles. Stock
raising is conducted to some extent,
but there is need of improved stock
and better pasturage. Dairying as an
adjunct to agriculture is almost IN
known, and dairy products exceeding
ly expensive.
Parts of me islands have been de-
nuded of their forests, to the great
detriment of the country, and 1t is
recommended that these areas be re
forested. In many parts of the islands,
especially at or near the coast on The
western or leeward side Of the islands,
irrigation must be practiced to sue
Icessfully produce good crops. Little
has been done in the islands in the
way of vegetable anu fruit growing for
market purposes, except with bananas
and pineapples- The little that has
been attempted shows that almost ev-
cry kind OF fruit and vegetable may
be grown somewhere upon the islands.
For supplying this class OF product
California and other parts OF the Pacf-
fic are now drawn upon
The report says there Is a great
necessity for me establishment Of an
experiment station in the islands in
order that the problems of diversified
agriculture may be given attention
