small compared with trade and to what
II will be when the orient shall have been properly
plotted and developed.
But how does the United states stand when It comes
supplying this trade-the United States at whose
very door it lies? The United States has only about
eight per cent Of the of the orient. Europe
sells six times much there dol
Isn't that fact to ponder on? Yet there is reason
for and the gratifying that the trade

have made) increased only &5OOOOOO as compared
with 1900 while that of the United States increased
