LOSING AND GAINING MARKETS.

| The Iron Age commenting on figures
that show that our manufactured eN-
/ ports of the past year exceeded that
/ of any other in our history notes
that exports during the past year
| showed a decrease to European coun-
tries and the gain was with all other
| divisions of the world, except Africa.
The increase in our export trade was
particularly heavy with Asiatic coun-
| tries, this trade having more than
doubled. The complaint over loss of
European markets is universal among
manufacturers and other producers.
| Back of the protective measures
urged or enacted in England, Russia,
/ Germany, France, Italy and Spain is
the spirit of retaliation. The great
kets brought matters to a head
Mr.. Chamberlain, backed by a strong
following, is urging a quasi-protective
system upon Great Britain. Germany
has showed her chips to the center and
is calling for a show down. Russia's
restrictive measures forecast the death
of American trade by strangulation.
Trade with Cuba increased Why?
Congress passed a bill reducing tariffs
on imports from Cuba in return for
similar advantages granted the United
States by the new republic The
were getting the profits from a trade
with country sixty miles from the
United States and 5000 miles from
Europe The result of the reciprocity
arrangement was that during the ifs
cal year which ended June 80, 1905,
the value Of American exports to Gu
ba was $3S,373,000-a gain of nearly so
per cent in two years. Italy has pop
ulation twenty times as great as that
Of Cuba. yet the latter bought last year
American goods which in value fell
only few hundred thousand dollars
below the value of our sales to Italy
Still the senate stands pat against
treaties negotiated by McKinleys
special commissioner, John A. Kasson
No doubt it will continue to kill treat
les as it has done in the past in the
face Of the complaints of producers
and the showing made by the results
of the Cuban treaty. If a reciprocal
arrangement worked we'll with Cuba
why would not a similar treaty nego-
tiated with judgment bring increased
trade with other countries?
Increased trade, an outlet for the
surplus is the demand of the producer.
Markets are the vital question The
farming interests, SO rapidly increas-
ing in productiveness and in political
power demand and must have markets
for their surplus products
With the president helpless against
an obdurate senate the producer and
exporter must turn toward a revision
of the tariff. The contest between the

THE REAL HEROES.

The death of Archbishop Chappelle
will recall the ancient story of tn.
brothers who, having deserved we'll OF
their country in fighting against q
foreign foe, died paying their vows in
the temple. 1t was so with the arch
bishop. He had fought his fight and
finished his course. Day by day he
spent his strength and devoted himself
to the yellow fever sufferers. Back
and forth thru his diocese he hurried
giving and issuing orders and support
careful of others. His diocese was his
battlefield, where he met the enemy
and fell at last, exemplifying in his
death the greatest love that lays down
life that others may live.
Not Pickett leading the most spec
tacular charge in history: Armistead
dying like a stricken eagle inside the
federal lines at Gettysburg, nor any
other of the men whose names the
SoulIl mas WF1lleIl llHpeTlSildDly III the
history of it's heroes deserves so high
a place as his. No fierce voices cheer
ed him on. He led no host to battle.
His was the silent struggle against
pestilence, the unseen self-sacrifice of
the priest who becomes leper because
lepers have immortal souls. 1t is easy
to brave death in masses. The man
who faces the grim destroyer alone IS
the real hero.
Whoever said all men are possible
heroes might have added all priests
and physicians are brave men, War is
one thing and pestilence another. The
greatest heroes of the south died like
Chappelle. wherever yellow fever was
epidemic. from the gulf to Memphis,
foctors. priests and nurses who held
their posts when others fled. There
we're hundreds of them, now dead and
forgotten in unknown graves, as earnest
and untlinchtng as the archbishop,
vhose death the south deplores. Their
names should be gathered and a shaft
raised to their memory. They were the
bravest.

CONOuERING THE DESERT.

Older men, who remember the geog-
raphical description Of the Great Am
erican Desert of their school days
who teamed across it more than half 8
cade later to escape the draft of the civil
| war or for more legitimate reasons
| might take issue with Frederick v. Cbl-
vile, who is convinced that there is ne
absolutely worthless land. Even in the
strictly arid regions Mr.. Colville, who Is
the chief botanist of the agricultural
department, insists millions of acres
now considered worthless agricultural
| ly are as certain to be settled in small
and this without irrigation. This APP
plies particularly to the great pla-
teus in the northern Rocky Mountain
region Il would confidently predict
said Mr.. Coville, chat the tranforma-
ton of these barren looking lands into
farms, thru the introduction of desert
plants, will be as extensive work as
the enormous reclamation thru irriga-
ton"
One of the plants newly introduced
by the agricultural department. durunl,
or macaroni wheat, seems destined 10
aid in making the desert blossom as
the rose. Macaroni wheat will grow
with ten inches of rainfall, and yield
fifteen bushels to the acre, where ordi-
nary wheat is an absolute failure. This
is two bushels more than the average
yield for the United States.
There are many other crops With
as great possibilities, which thrive or
but slight moisture, including splendid
forage plants" declares Mr.. M. A.
Carleton, the macaroni wheat specialist
of the department might mention
Kaffir corn, the sorghums, millets, AMI

oats, and barleys of wonderful drought

Desert now looked upon as absolutelv

1t is irrepressible and In the end it
means tariff revision, the lowering
