able indifference in falling TO show a

evenings in the week with varied pro-
gram.
But I particularly wish 10 refer TO the
band of the Engineer Corps at the Wash
ington Barracks. This band. as is usu-
ally announced in the press, gives excel
lent concerts every Sunday afternoon at
O'Clock, and on Wednesday and Friday
evenings at S:15. The hours have been

the lovers OF music are enabled TO at

OF stately trees. These grounds are
easily reached from any part Of The

TRADE WITH CHINA
HAS GROWN RAPIDLY
Increase of Three Hundred Per Cent in
Exports il Decade.

Recent developments with reference to
additional facilities for trade with China
lend interest to some figures showing
the growth of our commerce with that
country. presented by the Department
OF Commerce and Labor through it's
Bureau of Statistics. Exports to China
in the fiscal year 1903. aggregate about
s1s. 000. 600. against less than 81 600 900 in
1893. The total value of our exports to
China in 1905 exceed those of any earlier
year except 1902, when they were above
the normal by reason OF the very light
exports to China in 1901. in which year
importations were greatly interfered
with by existing hostilities in that
country.
This figure of Sis.0O0.O COO OF exports
direct TO China does not by any means
show, however, he total of our exports
to that country, as large proportion of
our exports TO HOngkOng also enter
China, Exports to Hongkong in the fiscal
year iast ended aggregate over IS. 100000.
making our total exports to China and
Hongkong about $27, OOo, 900. against a
total CT $4,000 900 in 1893.
Comparing this growth with that OF
our commerce with other parts OF the
world. il may be said that our total ex-
ports 10 Europe in 1908 aggregate lit
tie over a billion dollars, against 1862
000.0OO in 1898. having therefore in
that period; those to North America
amount to about $215. 900, 600, against
S119. 600 in 1898. having thus in
creased about so per cent. those to
South America aggregate about s41, 900.
coo, against S32. 900 600 in 1898. an in
crease of about 50 per cent: those 10
Asia in 1903 aggregate about $50 eco 600
against $4,000. 600 IL 1893, an increase
Of 2T5 per cent.
TO Oceauia the total Tor the year is
about ss6.OOO,OOO. against 81 900 600 in
1898. but are not properly comparable
with those Of 1898 because OF the fact
that they do not include the commerce
with the Hawaiian islands. which is
considered as part OF the domestic
commerce of the United States and sep
arately stated. To Africa the total ex-
ports for 1903 aggregate about S3S.e0O.-
600, against a little less than Sc 600 .oOt
in 1898
II is apparent from these figures thai
the growth in oUr exports 10 Asia ha:
been more rapid than to any other sec
tion of the world. except Africa. ard n,
growth in the exports 10 China has beer
a very important factor in the growth
of shipments to Asia. Comparing tn,

total exports TO Japan in 1903 aggregate

slightly greater than that to China.

Few MOated Manors.

Relatively few "moated homes OF Old

recalled to my mind by the announce
nent OF the execution the other day at
Colchester of that modern Bluebeard
Douglas, the scene OF whose murders was
a moated manor house in one of the
most remote corners of Essex. The rea-
son for this is perhaps on account of the
theory that meats are conducive TO the
6ampness of She buildings which they
surround, and are productive of malaria.

Still Countess Of Russell"

The ex-countess wishes II to be known
that the courts have decided that she
is still Countess OF RUSSELL and that
she must consequently be addressed as
such. This is a perversion Of facts. The
courts have never dealt with her rights,
to the title of which she wishes 20 re
tain possession. IL was when the Earl
Cowley resorted to law in order to pre-
vent his divorced wife after her mar
riage to a commoner from continuing

the tribunal declared that they did not
see their way TO forbid her to use that
name and title or any other. and that
while her taste in the matter was open
TO question there was no law by which
she could be restrained. 1t is on Lhe
strength OF this judgment that Earl
RusselFs former wife continues TO claim

The Field of Politics.
The Massachusetts Idea"


Those Republicans who have been ad-
vocating changes in the tariff schedules
will find greater encouragement and
more to hope for in supporting the
Massachusetts proposition" rather than
the now distorted and meaningless Iowa
idea" which was so altered and modi-
fed by the last State convention that
even its originator, Governor Cummins,
has difficulty in recognizing it. The
Massachusetts proposition" is not en-
tirely new, neither has il attracted
wide attention. but II is something which
is far more definite than the declaration
In the Iowa platform. It's chief advo-
! cate Representative Lowering of Massa-
! chusetts, an old-Iine protectionist, but
one who does not regard the Dingley
schedules as Holy Writ His is what IS
known as the drawback plan.
1t provides for the return to American
manufacturers of the amount of duty
paid upon imported raw material which
goes to constitute the finished product
I'm articles which are exported. sucn
a law is now upon the statute books but
IL is impotent and ineffective 1t af-
fords exporters comparatively no relief.
Mr.. Lowering introduced bill in the
last Congress providing for a new sys-
tenn of drawback" and vigorously ad-
vocated it's favorable consideration. It
received but scant attention from the
Committee on Ways and Means during
the closing days of the session, and, OF
course, was not acted upon.

Need of Reform.

Mr.. Coverings intention to keep up
the fight for drawback" which will be
of some benefit. is manifested by the
statements which he recently made be-
fore convention of the Furniture AS
sociation of America, held in New York
Here is, in part, what he said:
For my own part, 1 have been a pro-
tectionist all my life. but believe the
principle of protection best conserved
by meeting the question promptly and
revising some Of the glaring inequalities
that are today shutting US out from the
markets of the world.
IF our legislators are wise they will
not antagonize the great growing senti-
ment in favor of tariff revision, whether
It come under what is known as the
Iowa idea or that older and country
wide demand that has been forcing it
self upon the attention OF the party
leaders for the last few years.
Nothing less than a liberal drawback
law enacted at. the next session of Con-
gress viii save the protective tariff from
a fearful onslaught. if not utter demoli-
ton. The only way to hold the friends
OF protection together IS by the recogni-
ton OF the material interests of our
great and expanding industries. They
need and must have every possible out
let in the market OF the world for their
products.
Here is tariff revision sentiment for
you which means more in a single syIla-
bic than the entire Iowa platform. I,
comes from the East rather than the
West. and is expressed by a man who
represents large manufacturing constit-
uency which returned him TO Congress
last year by majority of nearly 5000
well knowing his views upon tariff
revision Regardless OF all that has been
said concerning the iowa idea" and the
demand in the West for moderation OF
the tariff schedules. revision is today
stronger in Massachusetts than it is in
Iowa.
