RACIAL GOOD WILL.
Continuation of Prosperity Will Do
Much TO Secure II,


The Democratic platform accuses the
Republican party of an attempt to kin.
die anew the cmbers OF racial and sec.
tional strife"
An incident at the recent American
Bahkers' convention in New York illus
trated the falsity OF this statement an
how, on the contrary, the Republican
party. by policies which promote the
business prosperity OF the South, has
promoted also feeling of mutual good
will between the better elements, at least,
OF the two races.
colored banker from Richmond, Va,
John w. Mitchell. made a speech which
brought forth tremendous applause, in
which the delegates from the South Join
ed with the delegates from the North.
MIR. Mitchell said he attended the c,op-
vention not only with the consent. but
upon the advice, Of the white business
men Of the South. He then went ON to
snow now the prosperity of the Southern
negroes was continually increa sing, and
that this was leading all the time to a
better understanding between the better
elements of the two races. As 10 the
share or the negro in the present phenom-
cnai prosperity of the South he said:
Do you know that we produce SIZE, los. .0no

Due to RepnhIicnn Policies.

1t has been the aim of American mann.
facturcrs and the desire Of our people Ia
increase the exports OF manufactures
Under the old Democratic regime manu-
factures constituted small item of our
exports. Under Republican rule they
have steadily increased. During the ten
years ending with 1850 they averaged
10 per cent. of our total exports. and
during the ten years ending with 1860
they averaged IL per cent. OF the
whole. During the last ten years of
Democratic rule our exports OF manu-
factured products increased only one per
cent.
The Republican party came into power
In 1860. and during the ten years end
ing with 1870 our exports of manufact-
ured products formed 10 per cent.
OF the total exports: during the ten years
ending with 1880 they averaged 1s
per cent. OF the total. and during the
ten years ending with 1900 they were
81 per cent. OF the total. In the fiscal
year 1901 they were ~ per cent. of the
total. and in 1902 they were 30 per cent.
OF the total
The figures show conclusively that the
great system OF American manufactures
and our increased exports OF manufact-
ured products which contribute so largely
to the wealth and prosperity OF the coun-
try are due TO Republican policies and
administrations.

PIPE LINE ON WATER.

Ing at Mouth Of the Mississippl.g
Preparatory to being taken to the
mouth of the river. where they will
be used by the United States engi-
neers to support floating pipe line,
eighteen steel pontoOns and nine sec.
tlons of iron pipe two feet In diam
eter. are being unloaded Cl the bat.
ture facing the Johnson iron worsy,
Algiers. The pipe and pontoons were
made at Chicago under contract with
the Federal government and shipped
to New Orleans. f
The pontoons are made of steel, -
feet in length and feet wide. They
will be arranged in such manner that
pipe nearly 1000 feet long will b.
supported on the water by means Of
flexible connection, which will permit
the pipe and pontoons to respond to
the actions of the waves without sew
ering the fastenings. Through the
pipe tremendous quantities Of silt,
which Is to be drawn from the bottom
of Southwest Pass with powerful
suction dredge for keeping uniform
in the gulf, will be piped for about
1000 feet After passing through the
pipe line the deposit will be dumfed,
into the sea.
The use Of the projected floatiA0s
pipe line is calculated to prove q neQ
el undertaking in this part of
country The system will enable q
engineers to do away with the tlf1
of barges to take the silt and car
It from the passes, and instead Of q n

in standard pipe lines. It will ~
quire two pontoons to support o.

The line will not be disturbed BY

elastic joints II will not be neces
to keep the pontoons on unifof1N
level. as they will act the same as
foundations for pontoon bridge.
Ever since the United States gov.
ernment assumed charge OF South
west Pass from the estate Of the late
Capt John b. Eads efforts have been
made to simplify the disposal Of mud
from the bed of the passes. Barges
have been used with limited success
at much cost until 1t was decided TO
experiment with the pontoon 1Ape,,

perior in every way. as well as more
economical II the undertaking comes

ment time has seen on this earth we
Inherit" is the best possible proof that
Judge Parker takes purblind view of
the possibilities and benefits OF coloniza-
tion. Although separated from the coun-
try that pushed "a backward and inferior
race" from the scene of Judge Parkers
speech to the "Avon Beach Regular
Democratic Club OF Long Island" does
he think for moment that England has
not shared in what was conquered for
mankind when the independence of her
American colonies was achieved?
But, beyond all the narrow, petty, and
mistaken views Judge Parker takes of
history and the onward and upward
sweep OF national affairs. stands disclos-
cd the fact that the Democratic candi-
date for President OF the United States
is willing to believe everything evil the
lying tongue of slander can utter against
American government in the Philippines,
solely because there is Republican al
ministration IN Washington. 1t seems
almost incredible that Presidential can
didate should become the willing herald
OF every lying rumor bred in the pur-
lieus of Manila.
And to think that he has descended
to this depth, not to force immediate
abandonment of the Philippines to the
tender mcrcies of their own corrupt and
impotent civilization, but to turn over
their preparation for independence to the
party OF Tammany, Tweed and Till
man.
Never before has the candidate of a
great political organization stood reveal
ed before the American people in the
role OF credulous defamer of the gov
erhmcnt Of his country. II sinks Judge
iarker far below the level of his Marty.

1904, was only $194, 10000. He says:
"The avidity with which Judge Park er
and ex-Secretary Olney swallowed the
statement tina; the Philippines had cost
this country $G50,00O,00O, and the per-
tinachy with which they cling to it,
after its falsity has been proved again
and again, are past the comprehension of
persons in Washington who are familiar
with the real conditions in the Philip
pines.
'"rhat the cost of the Philippines, in
cluding the S20,00O,00O paid to Spain,
amounted, up to May 1, 1902, to $780,.
100000, has been established beyond dis
pute. No Democratic member OF either
house of Congress dared to challenge
Secretary Roots statement to that effect.
The cost to this country for the follow
ing year has been shown TO be 3,0S0,-
600, and for the year just closed 81, 10O,-
600. a total of $l94, 10000. That has
been the actual cost of the Philippines
up TO June 30. 1901.
"rhe statement Mr.. Parker permitted
himself to repeat when he declared that
over 100000 lives have been sacrificed
is equally false. The total loss of life
of American troops and Filipinos in the
American army from all causes has
amounted to 4.OG7 privates and 155 off,
GERS, total OF 4,222 men. Even adding
to this number the loss of Filipino in
surgents, liberal estimate of which is
less than 10000, the grand total aggre-
gates 1900. against Mr.. Parker's
100000. Moreover, the totals here given
include deaths from wounds, sickness,
drowning and other accidents, and, an
important contributory cause, the con-
tagious diseases which, unrestrancd,
ravaged Americans and Filipinos when
American occupation began. Only 12G,-
600 American soldiers. all told, have
been sent to the Philippines.
'As an offset to this loss OF life should
be set the magnificent work OF the army
medical corps and of the health officers
OF the Philippine Commission, whose
unrcmitting efforts have stamped out the
plague, reduced smallpox and other con
tagious diseases to minimum. and rem
dered the Philippines as healthful as
