world 10000 tons of iron, and was eX-
ceedod among iron producing countries
i. 5.gat Britain, France and Ger
many. Ino 1900 it produced 10000
tying with Germany; then it went for
ward at great leaps until 1870, when
with an output Of 100000 tons, it had
passed France and stood second to
Great Britain, the leader of the iron
world for four hundred years. For
about twenty-five years the two great
nations stood in this relation, the Uni
ted States gaining a little one year
to lose it another, but in 1890, after
a Titanis race of over one hundred
years, we forged to the front and led
the leader of the world of nations
with the production Of 9,202,703 tons,
an increase over the British output of
1,30S,4S9 tons. We held the lead for
three years but in 1894 we lost it to
gain it again in 1895, to lose it in 1896;
but in 1897 we led again, and again in
1898, and in 1899, with our output of
15,620,703 tons, exceeding that Of
Great Britain by 4,315,394 tons we
have put our great competitor out of
the race. This excess over Great
Brtains product is greater than our
entire annual output of but fourteen
years ago. Verify for the youngest
OF the great nations we have done ex-
ceedingly WELL and we shall hold the
position we have reached because our
youth gives us the advantage Of illim-
table fields of fuel and ore which are
as yet practically untouched and easy
Of access, while those of the old coun-
tries in competition have been worked
almost to the limit. Under such condi-
tons, it is safe to predict that the
United States will not only lead the
world in iron production, but in time
will supply in iron all nations of the
world. That this country has 50
rapidly reached first place and already
produces nearly tnirty-five per cent
OF the worlds product is earnest of
what it can do when it's full energies
and resources are brought into active
operation. w. J. hampton in Aims

very numerous in Montana, and Gov
ernor Toole makes an advantageous
offer to representatives of that far off
state who want a glory job. Commits
sioners are wanted from Montana to
attend the exposition next winter, and
Governor Toole does not like to pass

South Carolina Interstate and West

mence in Charleston, S. c., December
l, next. AS the state has made no APP
preparation for an exhibition at the
fair the governor is in doubt about
the propriety of asking the manage
ment of the exposition to set aside a
day for Montana, also he is in doubt
as to who are South Carolinans in the
state.

department of promotion and pub
licity of the fair addressed the gov
ernor as follows under recent date:
'The South Carolina Interstate

velous progress that has been made
by our country in commerce, manufac
ture and industry during the last
quarter of century. Altogether
more than 20 states of the union have
provided for representation in Charles

by the authorities in Cuba that there
