the protective principle and defending
free trade as a principle. These men
did not represent the democratic party

conquest in the Orient lies coiled the
deadly serpent that means death to
American labor and ultimately to all
American interests except that of
bondholders alone.
Whenever extensive trade relations
are established between America and
the Orient, that vast reservoir of
cheap labor will turn the tide against
us and in favor of the yellow man.
When the time arrives that American
and English capital and skill opens
up the resources of China in the name
of trade, other nations will soon cease
to be competitors in the field against
Chinese labor and will ultimately only
be able to exchange raw materials
and food for the products of Chinese
and Japanese factories.
Our sales to Japan have fallen off
forty per cent during the past year.
Our total sales to S50,000,00O of people
in all of Asia last year amounted to
only $5S,000,000, or little more than
One-third the amount of our sales to
the less than 100000 people in the
British North America. England and
Germany sold more to Brazil last year
than the United States sold to one-half
the human race in Asia. These figures
are given with the accompanying sug-
gestion to expose the fallacy of the
Oriental trade fiction that was ex-
plotted in this country to chloroform
the American mind by an appeal to
commercial instinct, trusting the peo-
pie to remain ignorants of the facts.
The truth is the diseased minds of
modern multimillionaires were car
ried away with the alluring prospects
of becoming billionaires through the
development of China's unrivaled
resources in iron and coal and the en-
ployment of cheap labor The con-
ception back of the movement of the
great captains of industry in the
western world upon China was of
power and wealth beyond anything
the mind of man had before con
ceived Of If the Chinese would per-
nit of it's being carried out it would
undoubtedly check the advancement Of
western civilization, make billionaires
of few promoters, and in less than
a century make the Mongolians the
masters of the world.

by the late United States Senator
Calvin S. Brice, of Ohio, receiving
concession from the Chinese govern
ment to build railroad in China. The
syndicate thus formed organized the
American China Development Com
pany, for the purpose Of under the
concession obtained from the Chinese
government, building a railroad from
Canton to Hankow in China and de-
veloping the coal and iron industry
in the territory tributary to the pro-
posed railroad.
1t it not necessary here to remind
our readers of the commanding posi-
ton of iron in the industry of the
modern world But, it may be news
to some that China is the richest por-
ton of the earth in iron and coal, all
of which is of the highest known
quality. The deposits of iron and coal
in the territory accessible to the Yang
Use Kiang river, one of the longest
navigable rivers in the world, is said
to equal many times that Of Pennsyl-
vania. 1t is no wonder these rich de-
posits, which if developed with Chi
nese labor would command the iron
markets of the world, were attractive
to the master minds of England and
America, and that their covetous eyes
were fastened upon them.
How to command so great prize
was the problem in hand by both the
American and the English companies
at the time the Spanish-American war
was on, and for many years before.
Here again attention is called to the
fact that the corrupt weak and imbeciIe
Chinese government of that period
was being continually harrassed by ev-
cry government of Europe demanding
of it territorial concessions for one
purpose or another, in settlement of
claims On account of the destruction of
the lives or property of Christian mis-
sionaries fro msuch country in China.
The nations of the earth were at
this time watching the conduct of
each other in Chinese matters and
combining against exorhitant demands
on the part of any one of their mum
Der, each jealous of the other lest IL
secure an undue portion of the great
prize they then believed was to be
divided among them to the great ad-
vatnage of the participants.
In the meantime Russia was moving
steadily down upon China, and this
power which was the much more
dreaded then than now, was through
secret intrigue exerting a practical
control over Chinese officials. The sit
uation was that the English company
whose investments were already large
outside of England was impatient of
delay in securing the coveted Chinese
prize and growing daily more distrust-
full of the Russians whom they feared
intended to balk their game and make
themselves eventually complete mas
tiers of China and shut out all others
from participation in the great prize.

abundant profitable employment for
their capital at home were less wor-

opportunity and seized upon it with
avidity Immediately upon the sink
ing of the Spanish fleet in Manila bay
the English company sought and ac

In this connection attention is called
to the fact that President Mckinley

the tariff was the means of building

injured.
Britt and two companions were en-

FOREST RESERVE GRAZING
Is Being Considered Today at
Washington.
STOCkMEN FROM WEST ARE THERE
Meeting Is to Bring About Better
Understanding Between Officials
and the Stockmen.

DENVER, Col, Jan. 27.-In accord
ance with an invitation sent out by
Mr.. Clifford Pinchot, forester of the
United States, number of represen-
tative stockmen of the west, including
F. c. Hagenbarth, president of the
National Live Stock association, F. K.
Warren, president of the National
Wool Growers association, and Murdo
Mckenzie, president of the National
Stock Growers association, met here
today in conference with Mr.. Pinchot,
to consider the question of cattle graz
ing in forest reserves. In his opening
address Mr.. Pinchot said that Presi-
dent Roosevelt had repeatedly ex-
pressed the sentiment that the forest
reserves were for use Following this
expression of the president the for
estry service is now trying to make
these reserves as useful as it is pos
sible to make them under the existing
conditions. The fee for grazing in the
forest reserves has already been es-
tablished by the secretary of agricul-
ture, with the full approval of the
president and has been accepted as
just and wise by the great majority OF
those who use the reserves for grazing
throughout the west. Many of these
stockmen are already paying these

between the forestry department and
the men representing the interests OF
the stockmen.
