American Trade with the Far East.

American Trade with the Far East.
In the first eight months of the pres
ent fiscal year, our exports to the ORR
ent were as much as for the entire fis-
cal year OF 1904. The department OF
commerce and labor. basing its figures
on the returns for these eight months,
estimates that the exports to the Orient
for the present year will reach $780,
OOO. 900 in value. This demonstrates the
great importance to this country of the
open door in the far East, and partlcu-
larly in China which is our most liberal
customer. Undoubtedly the relief from
Russian pressure which China is now
enjoying has been favorable to Amerl-
can trade. During the year. also, new
record has been established with Japan.
Roth to China and Japan our chief ex-
port is cotton, though China buys maln-
" cotton cloths, while Japan buys the
raw cotton instead of the manufactured
article. During the year, we also cx-
portel to Japan increasing quantities of
leather. machinery, steel rails and 9TH
er things useful to its military opera
tions.
The department of commerce and Ia
bCr points out that during the eight
months of the present fiscal year, the
increase in our Philippine trade has
been very small, though this a trade
which the United States has a right to
expect to be of great benefit in the COM
ing years. In former times. we i'm
PORTED much more from China than we
send there, but now the amounts
are nearly equal, which is
decided gain to this country.
With Japan, also. the balance
of trade has been largely upon the 9TH
er side, though the large increase in our
exports will probably soon turn the
scale the other way. The greater in
tcrest of the United States in the far
East in recent years and the in
crease in transportation facilities mean
much to our future trade in that sec
ton of the world. 1t is IA trade which
should be properly cared for. protected
and encouraged in every legitimate
way.

In the old times there was never any
question that the American eagle was
the NATIONAL bird in this country. In
view of certain widely discussed utter
"nces of the President. however. it has
been suggested that the stOrk SHOULD
be more rfoberly the national bird;
and now comes the hint that the eagle
may be transformed into a dove of

A New Mormon Shrine.

The story comes from the West that
after an absence Of 50 years the Nor
mon church Is to come back to ILLINOIS
and other parts of the upper Mlssis-
sippi valley, where it originated and
suffered its early prosecutions. Ac-
cording to these reports, emissaries
from Salt Lake City lave purchased
the ruins Of the old Jail at Carthage,
ILL.,, and will construct upon its site a
church as a shrine for those Of their
creed. 1t was in the old Jail that Jo-
seph Smith, the founder Of MormOnism,
together with his brother, were put to
death by a mob of citizens. Indepen-
dence. Mo-, and Kirkland, Ohio, are
other cities where the MormOns estab-
lisheG themselves. 30 years ago, only to
be driven away by people who refused
to allow their practices to be carried OF
in the neighborhood. The history Of
Mormonism i'll Illinois and neighboring
states was filled with tragic events, Gull
minating in a massacre at the Garth
age Jail.
Prosecutions forced Joseph Smith and
his little band to move from one town
to another and from one state to an
other. They suffered all degrees of ill
treatment. but his followers steadily>in-
creased in numbers. Once he was
tarred and feathered and left for dead
Another time he was driven from home
in the depths of winter; another time
sentenced to be shot by an improvised
courtmartial of indignant citizens. BY
1874 he had become absolute leader OF
10000 people in Illinois and neighborins
states and offered himself as a candl-
date for the presidency. So great De-
came the feeling against him and his
followers that civil war resulted. ana
the governor of Illinois had to call out
the militia At this time Smith sur
rendered and was put in the Carthage
Jail for safe keeping, only to meet with
q terrible death at the hands of an in
furiated mob.
And now, where the life blood OF the
church's founder was shed the Nor
mons propose to establish shrine and
a Headquarters Civilization has advan-
ced since that time, half century ago.
when the Mormons were driven from
the middle West to make their famous
tourney across the plains to Utah,
where they established PARADISE in the
wilderness. The 20th century is more
tolerant than was the middle Of the
18th. and there is not likely to be scri-
Gus opposition if the M"rmons erec-
there proposed shrine on the site OF the
old Carthage Jail. There will be
mild curiosity over their actions. and
the story of the old tines will be re-
told in the newspapers. There Will
nrobabIy be resentment IN some breasts
at the action of the MOrlncns, but that
there will be serious trouble or even
active opposition is hardly to be be-
lieyed.
