IMPORTS ARE BIG.
FOREIGN COMMERCE REACHES
THE HIGH WATER MARK
ILL.,. MAMMOTH GAINS, IL
Trade of the United States, Including
Imports and Exports Almost
Reaches the Billion and Half Mark
1908 the Banner Year.

The foreign commerce or the United
States in the fiscal year just ended is
larger than in any preceding year in
its history. The total of imports and
exports as shown by the department OF
commerce through it's bureau of sta
tistics is, for the year 1903, S2,445,610,-
AIT against $2,31O,937 ,156 in the year
1900, which were considered the BAN
ner year prior to 1908. Imports are
larger than in any preceding year and
exports are larger than in any preced-
ing year save in the exceptional year
1901. The imports for the first time
crossed the billion dollar line, the to-
tai being 81, 025,619,127 and the exports
for the second time crossed the 81, AGO.
100000 line, being $1,419,991 $50 or
practically $1,42d000I0004 The sim
gle year in which the value Of exports
exceeded those of 1903 is the fiscal
year 1901, when the total was $1,4S7.-
764,991 The imports exceeded those
of 1893 by about $159,O00,000 and the
exports exceeded those Of 1898 by
about S572,0O0,0O0. The imports, there
fore, have increased 1874 per cent dur
ing the decade and exports have in
creased 675 per cent during the same
period.
Comparing Imports.
Comparing the figures of 1908 with
those at decimal periods at earlier
dates, it may be said that the imports
of 1853 were 1858 100000, those fol
1863 100000; for 1878 $642,000,
900; for 1888 $723.O00,OO0; for 1893
100000 and for 1903 $1,025,000,
600. The exports of 1853 were S203,
100000. those for 1868, 100000, 900;
for 1873. 522,0OO,OO0; for 1888, 1928,
100000; for 1898, $S47 100000 and
those for 1908 were within fraction
of $1,420,000,0 900.
The imports of 1908, therefore are
less than four times those of 1858
while the exports for 1903 are practic
| ally seven times those of 1858.
Manufacturers Materials.
The growth in importation, which is
the most striking characteristic of the
! years commerce, is very largely in
materials for use in manufacturing
Only eleven months figures are vel
| available in such detailed form as tt
| show the increase by great groups, but
the figures of the eleven months ending
with May show that articles in crude
condition for use in manufacturing in
creased $62,000,OOO or about 20 PEI
cent as compared with the correspond
ing months of last year; articles par
TALLY manufactured for use in manu-
4 featuring increased the sum of 81
| 100000 or about per cent; article

GENERAL WOOD IN MlNoAMAo.
Is Made Supreme In Governments Of the
Southern Island.

Kansas City Journal: The Philip
pine commission has relinquished con-
troll over the island of Mindanao and
placed the supreme power in the hands
of General Wood as civil and military
dictator. Mindanao is the second
largest body of land in the archipelago,
and there are no cities or permanent
settlements in the entire area, except
along the coast and the banks and
shores of its few streams and lakes.
The interior is a mountainous wilder.
ness of primeval forest, and no sue.
cussful effort has ever been made to
subdue the savage tribes which roam
through it, and bring them under the
yoke Of civilized customs and laws.
The majority of the inhabitants are
Moros of the fiercest and most incorrf-
gible type. The only Fillipinos, strict
ly speaking, in the whole island are
either the enslaved descendants of
those whom these Moros captured in
former times in their Northern preda-
tory excursions, or else traders and
laborers who lead a timorous life un-
der protection of nearby forts.

MATILDA IN THE BARN.


The barns the bestest place on earth in
summer when it rains;
The drops make kind of corkscrews on the
dusty window panes!
Our feet sound loud as anything In walk
ing on the floor,
And Glenn and me we telephone through
knot holes In the door!
We peep in at the horses and they al
ways turn around,
And chew, and chew, and chew, with such
funny cruhching sound.
And their eyes are kind as can be- ] like
them that way best;
just without the little shutters that they
wear when they are dressed.
Their clothes are hanging near them, ana
they're proud Of them, perhaps
Though they're nothing but .suspenders,
buckles, chains and little straps,
There's one whose name Is Lady, but the
rest9of them are hims,
And they all make snorting noises, Just
like Glenn when be swims!
Z The hay is warm and prickly, and the
dust gets In your nose,
And on the beams above you, sit the
pigeons, all in rows.
They are brown, and white, and purple,
but you can't get near to pat,
InOugn tnink they ought to let you,
cause they purr Just like cat!
But for sliding, and for hidin, and for
smuggling in nest,
The hays the bestest thing on earth--apd
1 stumped all the rest!
They stumped me to go down the shoot;
i wasn't stumped by them;
beat them all at siding--essepting only
Glen!
But though the barns the bestest place
in summer for a game,
You find that in the winter it isn't Just
the same;
1t isn't that it's lonely, and It isn't that It's
cool,
But Clements down at Newport, at Mr..
Someone's SCHOOL,
Then I watch the lilac bushes for I'll tell
you what I've found
When NIL the buds grow purple, and the
leaves get big and round,

quick as quick can be,
And summer comes-and CLEMENT

Dividends Small and Few.

According to the lease which the Rock
Island holds, so it is claimed, they are
only responsible for the interest on the
indebtedness and the taxes, the question
of whether they pay q dividend OH the
stock being determined by the earnings of
the road. The dividends have been small
and few. Thus the road had one advan-
tage over Mr.. Hooley. He has his money
tied up, about SS,0o0,000, and was getting
no returns. Although he was president of
the Evansville and Terre Haute road,
still his capital was limited. According
to the story which is told here, the Rock
Island recently began secretly manipulate
ing the stocks In which Mr.. Hooley and
his confederate, r. l.. Snow, We're inter-
iested. Mr., Hooley was game, but not sus-
pecting anything out of the ordinary run Of
the board, was outgeneraIed.
1t is taken for granted that Mr.. Hooley
will have to dispose of his stock in the
Des Moines and Fort Dodge, This is all
the Rock Island desires and will immed.
lately secure control of it, leaving no
doubt as to who shall manipulate the
road,
