GRAY I'M KENT.

In the coming Democratic Convention

ably be represented by Gray delega-
tion. Sussex is likely to be represented in
the same way. while the indications now
are that Kent county viii favor an un-

senator Kenncy, moro than to any other

of the Herast forces IN the state.

PATRIOTISM.

When we stop to think about It,
doesn't It seem strange that there are
thousands Of men willing to die for
a sentiment2 And yet that is what
thousands Of Americans have done,
and what other thousands are ready
to do. And one Of the strongest senti-
ments Is patriotism. Il lsatrue that in
the stirring days Of the sixties there
were many who were prepared to offer
their lives 70 the cause Of negro eman-
cipation. but It was only when the
Union was in danger that the hum
dreds Of thousands left their plows in
their shops 10 prevent the consumma-
tion Of that dire threat.
This feeling OF patriotism is the
strongest element in our whole pollti-
cal fabric and it made Southern paoif-
cation possible. For all through the
war tho people of the South had a
lingering tenderness for the old faE
and a lingering regret that they should
have been led to withdraw from the
Union.
Many have written Of the horrors of
war. but none have pictured it ade-
quately Yet there Is something in
spring IN the thought OF young men
with great careers opening out before
them, calmly laying aside all ambition
and going to the front TO stop the bull
lets OF the enemy. It shows that life
is not altogether sordld and that hero
ism is not dead.
And although It has been said that
when Lincoln called for $4,000 volun-
teers many enlisted expecting TO have
a pleasant holiday--to drill and parade
for three months and perhaps to fight
a little yet they were soon disillu-
stoned. But with a revelation Of the
horrors OF war and a knowledge that
the conflict was 20 be the most SAN
culinary Of modern times. a great per-
centage Of these men on the expiration
OF their terms OF service re-eniisted.
And in the last years of the war the
man who took up arms realized that
there was a great chance OF wounds
and disease. Of broken health and of
death. When. then we look az this
heroism in the aggregate We feel like
taking on our hats 70 the veterans. and
10 be lenient with them under al cir-
curnatancae
And on these Memorial Days o. re-
cent years we have learned 20 forge,
much that embiiiered the past We
have come 10 look upon the great con-
nict in a more generous spirit as fhs
years Of wartime recede. We have
reached a point where we can 90 JUS

American soldier whether be fought

TRADE IN THE WAR ZONE.

tist1cs Of the Department of Commerce

facts and figures. He says: Japan's
total commerce now amounts, in round
terms, to $25O,OOO,OOO a year, about
equally divided between imports and
exports, and that Of China to q It+t,o
over $500, 100000 year, of which i'm
ports considerably exceed exports. Ko-
rean commerce amounts to $4,000 600

From 1888 to 1908 our imports from
the countries named doubled whilo
our exports from China. Japan end
Hongkong amounted to $37 ,OOO, 900. in
1903, to $72,OOO,OOO. The amount
from Korea and Asiatic Russia WAS
mere trife. In 1888 our exports r.
these countries, including Korea and
As1adc Russia, amounted to $40
100000. WV
This makes clear that our trade in

We buy a very large proportion Of tho

Not many years ago no one would
eat American pruneS who could afford
French prunes. But this Is all changed.
1t Is difficult to find French prunes In
the large grocery stores in some of the
Eastern cities. and practically impos-
sible In the Western cities. There ia
still a small demand for the foreign
fruit; last year about 100000 pounds
Of plums and prunes were imported.
Instead Of buying prunes abroad we
are selling them. Last year the total
exports were 66,000,00o pounds. The
business has grown with surprising
rapidly. 1t was not till 1898 that the
exports of prunes were entered as a
separate item in government reports.
They had been 30 insignificant that
before that prunes were included In
