President Roosevelt is not likely to be disturbed by the shrieks of horrer and rage that are heard from the south over his action in entertaining at his own table Booker T. Washington, who has brains, characters dark skin. If he took the trouble to consider the matter at all, the president knew what the southern politicians would say of his extension of social courtesy to q black man, and had the characteristic independence to do what seemed to him right without regard to its effect upon his political fortunes. The spirit that prompted him to invise the head of the Tuskegee Institute and chief represent ative of a large body of fellow citizens to dine at his table was the same that moved him to appoint democrats to federal offices in the south and won for him the in the latter case the warmest commendation of the very class that is now clamoring for his zoe ial and political ostracism. It is as fu- tile now as it was fifty years ago to argue such a matter with the south. To point out that MT. Washington is the intellectual superior of editors and politicians who call him nigger-a more useful citizen, doing a greater work than they are capable even of comprehending-wou only incite them to greater virulence of speech and prolong an unprofitable contro- versy. Enough to say that President Roosevelt has confirmed the good opin- ion of his character formed by right thinking men whose perceptions are not obscured by prejudice.

Some of the members of the religious orders in France who do not choose to conform to the new law Of that coun- try regarding associations are likely to come to the United States, and it is not surprising to see the announce ment that some of them are expected in Maryland. That state. especially tolerant from the first in religious matters. was really founded as a refuge for Lord Baltimore and other Catholics, and has always had a leadership in the affairs of the Roman church in America, though only a mil nority of it's people are Catholics. These voluntary refugees from French hostile requirements are for that mat ter free to locate anywheO in the United States. They will be free here from all such conditions as those inn posed on them by the French law. The Jesuits have a great many educational establishments in this country-all of which have been found quite harmless. Most of them have been forced, by no other law than that of competition, to adopt many of the educational methods prevalent in the United States. They are especially good teachers of the Latin tongue and classics

capital.

The Hartford Courant thinks that what this language needs is more ad- jectives suitable to accompany a first class report of wedding. It is true that too many of those now in frequent use are not only tired but decidedly superfiuous. For example, we have ob- served during a career of about one hundred and thirty-seven years that when a couple are married in a private house it is almost invariably conceded to be pleasant home wedding. Now what's the use of either of these words? Would anybody on such an oc- casion write of an unpleasant wedding or of an unpleasant home-whichever the adjective may be taken to refer to? It is an old rule of correct writing to go through the article after 1t is drafted and eliminate every adjective not need ed to tell the story. Applying that treatment to pleasant home weddings, they would appear simply as weddings. The rest goes without saying. Simi- larly the frequent explanation that a wedding occurred at high noon." seems to be about one word too long. Is there any other than one kind of noon? When does low moon come in
 if F o'clock is high? We have ob- served, too, that when people are mar ried, they are very apt to receive wedding gifts" What else would the gifts be at that time? The reporter who wrote of someone that sent a Christmas gift for an unpleasant we'd ding in a homeless house at low noon would experience a fall in his pro fession." Every capable dictionary is abundantly outfitted with adjectives. But still those exactly suited to these festive occasions do not seem to pre- sent themselves at the time when their services are especially required.

Secretary Longs naval estimates have been made public and they az gregate almost s99.OOO.o0O. It is said to be likely that the department will ask for three new battleships, two arnored cruisers and several gunboats. Congress ought to show no hesitancy about appropriating money generously for the navy. including liberal amounts for new ships. There should be no waste and no parsimony. Battleships cost millions. but as President Eliot re- minded Charles Francis Adams, they may save millions. This is no time to halt in adding to our sea power. It is noticeable that the estimates include items relating to the naval and coaling stations in our insular possessions; these features of our naval appropria- tions surely merit sympathetic con sideration and approval San Juan. Ponce, Manila, Honolulu and the ports in Tutuila and Guam will be important naval centers for our fleets in the years to come. The naval facilities there should be developed now with thor oughness and foresight.

verted to is not a temporary one. There has been, it is true, a rapid growth in our exports to Mexico, especially since the opening of railway communication. and there has been a moderate de- velopment in the trade with the coun- tries bordering on the Caribbean sea. Our total sales to the countries lying to the south of us amount actually to a smaller percentage of our total ex ports to the world than two decades ago. This is particuarly anomalous, in view of the fact that we are the largest customers for some of the chief articles of export from South American countries, such as coffee and rubber of Brazil. We are also heavy purchasers of the wool and hides of Chili and Ar gentina. and of the tropical products of other South American countries, such as sugar. spices, fruits, dyewoods, cabinet woods, textiles and chemicals. As a matter of fact, we send to South American considerably less than half the amount we import from there, for in 1901 the United States purchased from South American countries goods valued at s110, ,329. .6e7, while the sales to them amounted to only s44, ,17O.sss.
 Of course. this situation does not ex- ist without reason. It is suggested, for example, that the easternmost point of South America is 2,600 miles farther east than New York. and the sailing distance from that point to New York is actually greater than to the cities of southern Europe, and but slightly less than to the commercial cities of Eng land and Germany. The markets of Europe are, therefore, about on a foot ing of equality with those of the Uni ted States, as regards distance. The European markets have however, an advantage in the circumstance that the steamship lines entering South America are controlled by European capital.

Fiscal experts continue to scan with attention the statistics of the govern ment revenue as they are compiled from day to day, with the result that ing made for the past few months as indicative of that for the year as a whole. The reduction il internal rev. enue receipts for the first quarter of the fiscal year was certainly much smaller than was expected. A change has. however. taken place during the current month. The internal revenue receipts for the earlier part of the month were considerably below those for the corresponding days of last year. and there is likelihood now that the reduction will turn out to be con-

PHoENIx, ARIZONA, OCT. 25, 1901.

As suggested in The Republican a few days ago. the American delegates
 to the Pan-American THE congress now in session SOUTHERN in the City of Mexico TRADE. will have an excellent
 opportunity to study the bearing of a policy of reciprocity on our trade relations with Latin America. Undoubtedly they wil find also that the problem of increasing our trade with our neighbors to the south is compli cated by the fact that most of the freight to and from South America is carried in foreign bottoms.
 While statistics sometimes are dry, the figures explanatory of the state of trade with the southern republics are full of interest. It is shown by Bradstreets that of Mexican imports the United States now supplies 40 per cent. Of imports to the Central Amer ican states, next removed by distance, though readily reached by water and now being tapped by railways, we send B per cent; to Colombia, a trifie far ther removed, but equally accessible by direct water communication, B per cent: to Venezuela. equally accessible. 27 per cent; to the West Indies, which lie in close proximity. but which have been up to the present time controlled by commercial nations whose policy in many cases has been to retain their commerce for their own people. 20 per cent; to the Guianas, also readily
 
 imports of British Guiana, 17 per cent of those of Dutch Guiana, and but less than 6 per cent of those of French Guiana.
 When we come to consider our trade with the countries of South America bordering on the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. however. a much less satis- factory condition of affairs is pre- scented. Of the total imports of all South America, s7 per cent is taken by the countries bordering upon the two oceans and but 13 per cent by those upon the Caribbean. On the eastern coast of South America we find Brazil importing in 1899 goods to the value of over s105. .00O. of which the Uni ted States supplied about 10 per cent; Uruguay and Paraguay, s26,cO0.0G0, of which our share was less than : per cent; and Argentine, 112.000000, of which about 10 per cent was from the United States; while q tour of the Pa cific coast shows imports into ChiE of s3S, ,OCO. 900, Peru $500, ,OO0, Bolivia s11,- 6o0,000 and Ecuador s7,000, 900, the pro portion from the United States aver aging about 10 per cent. Thus the northern coast of South America, front ing on the Caribbean sea, imports goods to the value of s26.00O,00O, of which we supply an average of 9 per cent; the eastern cost fronting upon the Atlantic. s275, ,ecO,Oo0, and the Pa cifc coast s6O. .OOo.OOO, of which our proportion is in each case about 10 per cent.

At the same time, the expendi- lures of the government are decreas- ing and are likely to continue to do so for a while. though. perhaps. not at the rate noticed in the earlier months of the fiscal year Sn any event. the situation will present for the early con sideration of congress the question as to the disposition of the surplus.

The latest raid of the Boers to the southward is spectacular in the ex- treme. Within a few miles of Cape Town. the party of five hundred that has reached Saldanha Bay now is, and at a sea coast point of some strategical advantage, they seem to be in g position to exert at least a sentimental adverse influence on the British cause. Very likely they will be driven back by the British troopers, but it is a sharp revelation of conditions in Cape Colony when a commando as numerous as this can make It's way, apparently uninolested, to such point. The fighting hand full of Boers are foolish. of course, to maintain their resistance against the inevitable. but they certainly are capa- ble of making the British government much trouble, even now.
