PAN-AMERICAN AWARDS.

The announcement Of awards at the Pan
American Exposition suggests some curious
reflections 1t must, of course, be frankly
recognized that such awards are not always
infalible denotements of comparative merit
That would be so IL for no other reason than
the fact that such expOsitions are not univer-
sally comprehensive. Some who would prob
ably be sure prize winners refrain from enter
ing such competitions. And some countries fail
10 send representations at all proportionate TO
that of others. In a nominally universal expo
sition, for example, the United States might
easily be outranked by Liberia if Liberia were
careful 10 send all that il had OF the very best
and the United States sent only a few exhibits
of Indifferent quality. This latter principle has
probably affected TO some extent the gross
results at Buffalo.
II was q foregone conclusion that the United
States would rank first. This country has taken
about half the awards, result proportionate to
its size, for 1t is in numbers about as big as all
other American countries put together. Mexico
stands second, which is also natural consider
ing its size and the progress it has made under
the direction Of President Diaz. Either Brazil
or Canada, one would say, should have been
third. But in fact Canada is bracketed with
Argentina for the ninth and tenth places, while
Brazil is q competitor with Hayti for the last
place on tne Hst. we may perhaps account for
Canada's comparatively poor showing on the
ground that it is part OF the British Empire
and thus is not as much interested in Pan
Americanism are the Independent republics
of these continents. But Brazils deplora BILE
showing is to be explained only on the theory
that for some reason or other it did not try
its best An adequate representation of Brazil's
industries would doubtless have secured for
that country far more than one eleven-hun-
dredth part Of the awards The country actu-
ally securing third place is Chilli, that restless
ambitious. aggressive, progressive and enter
prising nation which long ago won for its
people the name of the yankees of South
America" Its success is not surprising, and is
well deserved. fine showing is made by
Cuba in the fourth place, which is not strange
