The noncontiguous territory of the
United States is supplying a large and
growing market to the producers and
manufacturers of the u. 5. The Oct
ODER statement of the Treasury Bur-
eau of Statistics shows that the ship
ments of merchandise from the Z S.
to Porto Rico in the l0months ending
with October 1902 amounted to pract-
ically Sl0,0O0,000 ~ million dollars a
month 49, against 6 a millions in the
corresponding months of last year.
To the Philippines the shipments in
the 10 months ending with October
were over million dollars, against a
little over millions in the correspond
ing months Of last year. y in the
same months of 1000. To the Hiwai-
ian Islands the collection of statistics
of shipments was only resumed with
the month of June. and the figures
therefore do not cover the ten months

Belding is the most progressive, up
to-date and hustling city of its size in
the country. We have everything
that go toward making it desir-
able place to live, and yet we often
hear persons speak uncomplimentary
to strangers of some of the ,nterpris-
es. business firms, schools, churches,
etc This practice should be stopped.
Make it a point to Away speak kindly
of Belding. the business enterprises,
churches, schools and people who
make up the yillag which every resi-
dent should and can rightfully feel
proud. 1t is just as easy and leaves
an impression upon those who visit
us, which is lasting and cannot but be
of great benefit to the place
Belding has shown a steady growth
in population and every branch of
business, and is today attracting
much attention from other places.
Strangers who speak of the place al
ways say kind words, and why not our
residents, who go towards making up
the best city the sun ever shown up
on, do likewise.

When the legislature gets to fussing
with the game laws as it invariably
will next winter, the lawmak rs might
very creditably endeavor to insert a
section which will make hunting a
little less fatal for the hunter, per-
tinently remarks the Grand Rapids
Herald. The law might provide for
instance, that when hunter shoots a
man under the impression that it is a
deer or a bear that he is aiming at
and death ensues, that the guilty
hunter may be punished for man
slaughter Such law on the books
might have a tendency TO improve
the eyesight of some of those who 60

der 1t might also keep down the
height to which buck fever occasion
ally mounts. The enforcement Of
such a law would certainly insure a
greater caution

Reciprocity with Canada is all right
if it reciprocates; but Canada has
thus far suggested no plan acceptable
to the United States. Canada wants
reciprocity 20 as to permit the free
admission of her natural products in
to the United States BY natural
products she means hay beans, peas,
wheat, cattle, etc. The United States
will not consent Co this, for the farm
ers along the Canadian border are
entitled to protection the same as
other producers. American manu-
facturers GEEK to have Canada lower
her duties on American manufactur-
ed goods by having the duty lowered
on farm products coming from Cana
da. This is making a cats-paw of
American farmers Why not lower
the duty on all American manufac-
tured goods so as TO secure conces-
sions to American farmers who might
want to get their Pr oducts into Cana
da at lower rate of duty?

Postmaster-General Payne says:
"Millions of our people live more or
less remote from any post-office, and
a very large proportion of them are
not able to buy money orders or bank
drafts without great inconvenience.
1t is not unreasonable to expect from
the Government that it will provide
an easy convenient and safe method
to transmit small sums, say, 81 or less
in amount, without putting the send

which obtains in the purchase of a
