.IAE DANISH WEST INDIES

The purchase of the Danish West
Indies has been negotiated by our
government. A treaty for the ces-
sion of the three islands-St.
Thomas. St. John and st. Croix-
was signed and submitted to tie
Senate in January, and early in
February the Committee on For
eign Relations reported favorably
on the matter, and recommended
the purchase Of the islands by the
! United States for Eve millions of
dollars. The new possessions lie
southeast of Porto Rico, and are
without doubt of volcanic Origin.
They were first discovered by Co
lumbus on his second voyage in
l493,and a glance at the map shows
that they are thekey to the Carbide
an Sea, and lie directly on the course
of vessels rnnninig between Eu-
rope Panama, and South America.
Thirty-fve years ago, we made an
effort to purchase them, but there
was then no very urgent reason
why we should wish to acquire
them. Since we row have Porto
Rico under our protection, and
are about to cut au isthmiau canal,
they are of great importance to us,
both from military and commercial
considerations, On the three
islands there is total population
os apout $4,000, four-ffths Of tbe
/ people being colored. When sla-
very was abolihed 1348,othe colored
people continued to work for their
old masters, and as a result there
always has been the most kindly
and cordial relations between the
two races. Life in the islands is
described as being delightful, and
the people are among the most
hospitable in the world. The
cost of living is very small,
notwithstanding the extensive
entertainments In which the
people indulge. Rents are
Iowa fine large mansion may be
had for twenty-five dollars a
month, and servants are paid from
five to seven dollars per month.
Food is plentiful and cheep. There
are fruits and vegetables in abond-
ance, the waters about the islands
furnish choice fish in great quani-
ties, and meats of all kinds come
from Porto Rico. The climate is
warm, but is not subject TO the ex
tremes of heat which we often meet
with in our northern climates in
midsummer. The thermometer
seldom stands above ninety de-
grees, end an easterly wind almost
always tempers the heat.
Industlially the islands are not
of great value. The imports from
them 20 the United Staes are esti-
mated at only a little more than a
baiG million dollars a year, and our
exports to them at a little over six
hundred thousand dollars. Their
commerce, industries, and admin
istlatious, however, present 10 diff
dcult problems for us to solve.
Commercially they are far from
prosperous, but ~ purchasing them
we assume no burden Of debt.
Their chief value to us lies with
ont question in their location St.
| Thomas is natural site for a
strong military outpost, and its
harbor is one Of the safest and best
IN the Wesi Indies. 1T. Croix is
he largest of the three, and on
the whole is the most productive.
Denmark hae owned the islands
since l64l, but they have been a
sourcaof expense rather than of
income to her for many years.
English is the language commonly
-poken Throughout all three.
