The prodigious strides recently made
by The Boston Sunday Herald seem al
most phenomenal even in these DAYS of
accepted progress. Not content with
making good paper, which the Herald
has always been, nor resting for time
because it was better paper than any
other, it seems to be determined to set
pace that will preclude rivalry. Ger
tainly no paper comes into this office
which covers so wide field so well, OF
which is so broad in the discu ssion of
the topics of the day. No paper in the
country boasts such an array of humor-
istic talent, nor is there one which can
approach The Herald in the matter OF
its illustrations. Without going into
the details of the Herald's greatness
there is one feature which deserves un.
usual mention-the children's depart.
ment. In no publication can there be
found such presentation. 1t is clean
pure and wholesome. 1t is bright with.
out being repulsive, and interesting
without being offensive. 1t appeals to
the intellect of children rather than to
their vision. Such childrens depart.
ment should meet with the approval Of
parents everywhere. Surely The Herald
is entitled to be called "New England's
Greatest Newspaper"

The fiscal year which ended a few
days ago has been a record breaker In
the matter of foreign trade. While the
official figures are available only for
the eleven months ended with May 81,
close estimates show that the imports
for the entire year will exceed $1,000
100000 and that the exports Will be
more than 81, 400, 600, 900, making a to-
tai value of foreign commerce In excess
of 81, 44O, 100000. Thus 1t will be seen
that we are easily billion dollar coun-
try in our capacity to buy and almost
billion and a half country In our
ability to sell. The largest total for
eign commerce of any previous year
was that of 1901, $2,31O,937, $40. In
1900 it exceeded two billions for the
first time In our history, the total i'm
ports and exports for that year being
s2,224, 100000.
1t is shown that nearly half of our
imports for this fiscal year are of mate
rial for use by domestic manufacturers
and that there is a steady increase In
our exports of manufactured goods as
well as of food stuffs. Statistics OF I'm
ports for manufacturers are at hand
only for ten months Of the year. but In
the last of those months, April. they
were 1877 per cent Of the total. In
| 1902 their percentage was AZ. 10, and In
1903 they were AZ per cent Of the
whole. 1t may be observed that the
difference between our exports and i'm
ports-that is, the balance of trade
In our favor-gradually grows narrow
err. For the five fiscal years 1893 1902
the average excess of our exports over
imports was about $57O,OOO.OOO. Fol
the fiscal year just ended this excess. II
is estimated, will not greatly exceed
$4OO,OOO,OO0. The excess up to May 81
was 1881 100000.
This condition is not because of de
crease in exports, but because of In
crease in imports. By reason of ,thii
increase the surplus in the treasury
over expenditures for the fiscal year II
something over $52,0OO,O0O despite ,
reduction Of about $42,0O0,OOO in re
ceipts from internal revenue. Larg
imports have caused an increase II
customs receipts Of about $4,000, OOC
and of this sum duties on iron and stee
importations are estimated to hav
yielded about one-third. That Is be
cause of demand for iron and stee
products in the American market tina
could not be met by the output Of dc
nestle mills. The capacity Of HON
mills, however, has been greatly II
creased, so that during the present fl
cal year iron and steel importations ar
likely to decrease. Large imports sho,
, greater purchasing capacity and are
, healthy symptom when accompanie
by steady growth Of exports.

The End Of Strikes.

We should all be glad to concur In
the opinion of John Mitchell that the
agreement of the miners and operators
upon the establishment Of the eonciiis-
ton board suggested by the Gray COM
mission marks the end Of strikes In the
anthracite region. 1t is sincerely to be
hoped that Mr.. Mitchelrs prediction
will prove true, and there Ii some
ground for such hope In the adoption
by the conciliators Of the complete ma
chinery for the peaceful adjustment OF
every dispute likely to arise in the an
thracite region.
According to this agreement. griev-
snces are first to be submitted to the
mine foreman and may be appealed to
the superintendent or manager. then to
the Cancellation board. and after that,
under the terms Of the commissions
report, to an umpire to be appointed BY
Judge of the United States circuit
court. Pending the ultimate decision
there Is to be no interruption Of work.
This agreement places the miners IN
lon under obligations to prevent strikes.
at least until every means Of conciiia-
ton or arbitration authorized has been
exhausted. The effort to fulfill this
obligation in itself will reduce the pos
sibility of strikes to a minimum. 1t
will be better for the men and for the
operators by avoiding the loss sustain
ed by stoppage of work. 1t will elimi-
nate the chances of friction and tend to
the preservation Of the public peace.
II these salutary results can be oh,
tanned by this policy in the anthracite
country, why would it not be good
plan for all employers and employees
to adopt the same methods rather than
the wasteful and suicidal policy Of re-
sorting to strikes and lockOuts?
