GOOD TRADE MOTTO.
Keep All You Get and Make No Foolish
Concessions to Rival Foreign
Producers,

One of the ever-vigilant Free Trade
journals thinks that now, when we
are selling a half billion dollars worth
more than we are buying, our custom
ers are entirely justified in thinking
that we ought to make it as easy as
possible instead of as hard as possible
to pay that enormous annual BILL and
it suggests that, to make it easy Tor
them, we should remove our Protective
tariff from foreign products, and thus
allow our foreign customers to replen-
ish their depleted pocketbooks through
the sale of their goods in this country.
This may be philanthropy, but 1t is
not business and it is not sense. why,
in the name of all that's reasonable,
we should impoverish our own people
in order to supply our foreign custom
ers with the wherewithal of life may
be comprehensive to the strangely
constructed brain of a Free Trader, but
it certainly is not comprehensive to
any one else. Even though we should
give them only so much of the Ameri-
can market as we now possess or Tor
eign markets, where would be the
gain? There isn't any reason why we
should prefer foreigners to Americans
for customers, and, if we are to sacri-
flee any market now held by us, it
would be better to sacrifice the foreign
rather than the home market. But the
plan proposed is much more foolish
than a mere exchange of markets
would be, for, by the removal of our
protective tariff barriers and the con-
sequent turning over of the American
market to foreign producers, we would
give at least fifty dollars for one, for
the American market is more than fif-
ty times as valuable as all the foreign
markets which we possess. That may
be a way of trading which appeals to
the free trade mind, but hardly to that
of the successful American business
man. And why should we give up
anything to pay for what we can get
for nothing? We seem to be doing
very we'll with our foreign trade just
as things are. In the old child's game
of Button" we used to be told, Keep
all you get and catch what you can"
That makes very good trade motto
and one which it is the part of wisdom
to follow.

FAULTY MEMORIES.
Curious Tendency to Forget What the
National Republican Platform Says
About Reciprocity.

Habitual disregard-suppression, it
might be called-of central principles
and facts seem to be uniform charac-
teristic of the votaries of tariff tinker
ing by means of special trade treaties
secretly negotiated and secretly con-
frmed. They argue along general lines
that. if we are to sell more to foreign
ers, we must buy more from foreign
ers, unmindful of the complete mega
ton of this theory by the enormous in
crease in the export of our agricultural
and manufactured products in the past
four years of adequate protection. They
urge that our trade balances are too
large and must be cut down by an in
creased acceptance of foreign commod-
tiles to take the place of articles
which are now produced at home; but
when they are asked to specify the ex-
tent to which this industrial hari-
kari shall be carried into effect, where
Il is to stop and what lines Of domestic
production shall be driven out of bust
ness in order that we may buy as
much as We sell, or Whereabouts, they

A Method t su-nlIced choir

Calvary Methodist Episcopal Church

introduced with the services ON Sun
day a supplied choir of young men
and women, and boys and girls to the
number of so. The services were high

was copying Episcopalism, which the
church has heretofore stoutly opposed.

A Barbados correspondent says
that Mr.. w. X. Morrison, the bee ex-
pert attached to the Imperial Depart
ment of the West Indies, has recently
bees in the island of Montserrat. He
is now trying what can be done by the
use of modern hives to improve their
honey producing capabilities. Modern
apiarists are of opinion that they can
make the honey bee conform TO al
most any conditions, so that Mr. Nor
riscn's experiments will be watched
with some interest. The honey of the
stingless bee is clearer and thinner
than that of ordinary commerce.

Strange Tribute to Our Sailor Dead.

Many of the coast towns of Califor-
mia instituted last year on Memorial
day a unique form of tribute to the
memory of our sailor dead whose I'M
known graves lie in the ocean. Bands
of children marched to the waters
edge and while singing patriotic songs
strewed the sea with flowers. 1t is
now urged that this pretty ceremony
be made national custom, and with
this idea in view circular, signed by
Mrs. Armitage S. c. Forbes of Los
Angeles, Cal, is being sent about, urg-
ing all interested and influential peo-
pie to concur and assist in perpetual
ing the ceremony.
