Nearness of worlds Countries.

After all, how near one to the other Ia
every part of the world. Modern inven-
tions have brought into close relation
widely separated peoples and made them
better acquainted. Geographic and polit.
ical divisions will continue to exist, but
distances have been effaced. Swift ships
and fast trains are becoming cosmopoli-
tan They invade fields which few
years ago were inpenetrable. The worlds
products are exchanged as never before.
and with increasing transportation IA
cilities come increasing knowledge and
trade Prices are fixed with mathemat-
ical precision by supply and demand. The
worlds selling prices are regulated by
market and crop reports. We travel
greater distances in a shorter space OF
time and with more ease than was ever
dreamed of by the fathers. Isolation Is
no longer possible or desirable.

COMPLIMENTS ExP0SITIONS.
Says They Are the Timekeepers of Pro
gress--Modern Inventions Have Brought
Into Close Relation Widely Separated
Peoples -wond.rs OF the Telegraph.

The following is the text of President
McKinley's address at the Pan American
Exposition on the day before he was
shot: Expeditions are the timekeepers OF
progress They record the worlds adj
vancement. They stimulate the energy.
enterprise and intellect of the people and
quicken human genius. They go into the
home They broaden and brighten the
daily life of the people. They open
mighty storehouses of information to the
student. Every exposition, great or
small has helped to some onward step.
Comparison of ideas is always educa-
tional and as such instructs the brain
and hand of man. Friendly rivalry fol-
lows, which is the spur to Industrial inn
proyement, the inspiration to useful In
vention and to high endeavor in all de-
partments of human activity. 1t exacts
a study of the wants comforts and even
the whims of the people, and recognizes
the efficacy OF high quality and new
prices to win their favor. The quest for
trade is an incentive to men of business
to invent, improve and economize In the
cost of production. Business life, whether
among ourselves or with other people, In
ever a sharp struggle for success. 1t will
be none the less so in the future. With
out competition we would be clinging to
the clumsy and Anticipated processes OF
farming and manufacture and the meth
DDS OF business of long ago, and the
Twentieth would be no further advanced
than the Eighteenth century. But,
though commercial competitors we are.
commercial enemies we must not be. The
Pan-American exposition has done its
work thoroughly. presenting In its ex-
hibits evidences of the highest skill and
illustrating the progress of the human
family In the Western hemisphere. This
portion of the earth has no cause for
humiliation for the part 1t has performed
in the march of civilization. 1t has not
accomplished everything; far from 1t. 1t
has simply done its best and without
vanity or boastfulness. and recognizing
thu manifold achievements of others. 1t
invites the friendly rivalry Of all the
powers in the peaceful pursuits of trade
and commerce, and will cooperate with
all In advancing the highest and best
interests of humanity.

Wonders of the Telegraph.

We reached Gen. Miles in Porto Rico
by cable. and he was able through the
military telegraph to stop his army on
the firing line with the message that the
United States and Spain had signed a
protocol suspending hostilities. We knew
almost instantly of the first shots fired
at Santiago; and the subsequent surren-
der of the Spanish forces was known az
Washington witnln less than an hour of
its contamination. The first ship of Ger
vera's feet had hardly emerged from that
historic harbor when the fact was flashed
that followed was announced immedi-
ately through the wonderful medium of
telegraphy. .

Outlets for surplus.

BY sensible trade arrangements which
WIFI not interrupt cur home production
we shall extend the outlets for our in
creasing surplus. A system which pro-
vides mutual exchange of commodities
is manifestly essential to the continual
healthful growth of our export trade. We
must not repose in fancied security that
we can forever sell everything and buy
little or nothing. If such a thing were
possible, II would not be best for us or
for those with whom we deal We should
take from our customers such OF their
products as we can use without harm to
our Industries and labor. Reciprocity is
the natural growth of our wonderful in
dustrial Development under the domestic
policy now firmly established. What we
produce beyond our domestic consumption
must have a vent abroad. The excess
must be relieved through a foreign out
let and we should sell everywhere we can
and buy wherever the buying will enlarge
our sales and productions. and thereby
make a greater demand for home labor.
The period of exclusiveness Is past. The
expansion of our trade and commerce is
the pressing problem Commercial wars
are Improbable. A policy of good will
and friendly trade relations will prevent
reprisals. Reciprocity treaties are in
harmony with the spirit of the times
measures of retaliation are not.
Our earnest prayer Is that God will gra-
ciously vouchsafe prosperity, happiness
and peace to all our neighbors and like
blessings to all the peoples and powers
of the earth.
