TO BE INVESTIGATED

!, Washing gton, July 2oT There will be
a congressional investigation OF the af-
fairs Of the joint high commission, Of
which Vice President Fairbanks is the
chairman. This commission has been
in existence for seven years, and so far
as can be learned it has done nothing
whatever except to spend $4,000. 1t
was created for the purpose Of settling
all disputes between Great Britain and
Canada on the one hand, and the Uni-
ted States on the other. Although it
has met many times nothing whatever
has been accomplished. q
Ss The settlement Of the Alaskan bound
airy line dispute was one of the most
important questions referred to, it, but
after considering this subject for sew
eral years without reaching any agree
ment, the matter was taken from the
hands Of the commission and referred
to the British American commission Of
which Elihu Root, Senator Lodge and
ex- Senator Turner were members.
This commission settled the vexatious
question during one session. II

The u S. Can Retaliate on China

Washington, July ao. III China car
sfies this new boycott policy too far,
the United States is in 4 position 70
adopt retaliatory measures which will
hardly fail to be effective. IT is not
the desire Of President Roosevelt to
adopt harsh measures, and the Uni
ted States will not begin throwing
stones until it IS found that throwing
protests proves ineffective. But there
are stones in Uncle Sans pockets.
The United States is a better market
for China than China is for the Uni
ted States. Consequently, if it comes
TO closing markets, China has most to
lose, Taking the figures Of 1904 ais
indicating the current run of trade Of
late years, it appears that the United
States sold to China SI2, ,862,432, while
our purchases from China in that year
were $2o, ,345, ,o8I. Even when Hong
Kong, which is British territory, but
commercially China, is added, our
sales to the oriental market amount to
but $23,32o,o86. If the United States
should turn about and stop buying
Sac, 10000 worth of China goods the
boycott might assume new aspect.
The people in the United States who
will suffer most by the Chinese boy
Icott are the manufacturers Of cotton
cloths and Of mineral oils. These two
items, with fours and breadstuffs, con-
|stitute the largest part Of our trade
with China.
Again, taking the figures of 1904,
which are the only complete statistics
available, II IS found that we sold the
Chinese (inciuding Hong Kong sales)
,0s2 worth Of mineral oils, and, il
the same year, manufactured cotton
cloths amounting to $4,Io0 900, and
wheat hour and foodstuffs amounting
III $4,8 83o, I46 III addition 70 the above
articles there was some structural iron,
wood tobacco; clocks and maps sold
in that market.
The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1905-07-29

China sells to the United States
(taking the year 1904 as TYPICAL SEQ
345,o8I worthof goods a year The
principal items in this trade are raw
silk, tea, hides, opium and wool. The
raw silk imported by the United States
from China amounted in 1904 to nearly
$I0, 600, 900, the tea imported amounted
to- over 81, ,ooo, 900, hides came up to
2,6oo, 900, wool to $2,3oo, 900, and OPT
iiin to ST, 100000. &
But the chief advantage Of this trade
TO China and the chief danger to
China il the boycott continues lies in
the fact that it is all free of duty. with
the single exception of wool. Out OF
the total imports of $40, 5,o8I which
the United States gets from China,
$40, ,67o247 are of goods which are on
the free list.
Now a duty on raw silk, or tea even
a small duty would put a crimp into
the Chinese business with the United
States which would make merchants in
Shanghai sit up; Andtfat is the remedy
which is open to the United States il
III appears that drastic measures are
TO be necessary.
There is no article which we buy
from China which we could not get as
well from other countries. Tea will
come from India, silk from France and
wool from the same country and Aus
tralia.
Even the Chinese n,attings of which
we buy $1,000, 900 worth year, could
As well come from Japan. and now
