commission to study the industrial and commercial conditions in the Chinese em- pire and to report as to the opportunities for and the obstacles to the enlargement of markets in China for the raw pro- ducts and manufactures of the United States. Action was not taken thereon during the last session. I cordially urge that the recommendation receive at your hands the consideration which its impor- tanee and timeliness merit"
 In his annual message of 1899 he again called attention to this recommendation, quoting 1t. and stated further:
 T now renew this recommendation, as the importance of the subject has stead fly grown since it was first submitted to you, and no time should be lost in stud ying for ourselves the resources of this great field for American trade and en- terprise."
 The importance of securing proper in formation and data with a view to the enlargement of our trade with Asia is un- diminished. Our consular representatives in China have strongly urged place for permanent display of American products in some prominent trade center of that empire, under government control and management, as an effective means of advancing our export trade therein I call the attention of the congress to the desirability, of carrying out these sugges- tiOns

POLICY TOWARD OTHER NATIONS OF
 WESTERN HEMISPHERE.

It is not true that the United States
 feels any land hunger or entertains any projects as regards the other nations Of the Western Hemisphere save such as are for their welfare. All that this coun- try desires is to see the neighboring conn- tries stable orderly and prosperous. Any country whose people conduct themselves

NATIONAL
 QUARANTINE LAW.

It is desirable to enact a proper na- tional quarantine law. It is most unde- sirable that a state should on its own initiative enforce quarantine regulations which are in effect a restriction upon in- terstate commerce and international com merce. The question should properly be assumed by the government alone. The surgeon general of the national public health and marine hospital service has repeatedly and convincingly set forth the need for such legislation.

PROTECTION OF ELECTIONS.

The power of the government to pro- teet the integrity of the elections of it's own officials Is inherent and has been recognized and affirmed by repeated declarations of the supreme court. There Is no enemy of free government more dangerous and none so insidious as the corruption of the electorate. No one de- fends or excuses corruption, and 1t would seem to follow that none would oppose vigorous measures to eradicate it. I rec ommend the enactment of law directed against bribery and corruption in federal elections The details of such a law may be left to the wise discretion of the con gress but 1t should go as far as under the constitution it is possible to go and should include severe penalties against him who gives or receives a bribe intend ed to influence his act or opinion as an elector; and provisions for the publication not only of expenditures for nominations and elections of all candidates but also of all contributions received and expend- itures made by political committees.

ARBITRATION TREATIES.

We are tn every way endeavoring to help on, with cordial good will, every movement which will tend to bring us into friendly relations with the rest of mankind In pursuance of this policy I shall shortly lay before the senate treat ies of arbitration with all powers which are willing to enter into these treaties with us. It is not possible at this period of the worlds development to agree to ar bitrate all matters, but there are many matters of possible difference between us and other nations which can be thus ar- bitrated. Furthermore, at the request of the Interparliamentary union, an eminent body composed of practical statesmen
