Special Trade Agents.

While the Senate was discussing the
bill which carried an appropriation Of
$50, 900 for the continuance Of the work
of special trade agents, Senator OVER
MAN submitted an amendment, which
the Senate approved. This increased the
appropriation to $50, 900, with the definite
understanding that the additional $40, 900
be used for the specific purpose of inves-
t~igating in detail the conditions of foreign
markets for cotton goods.
There Is no more reason for the ex-
penditure of $50, 900 for the benefit Of the
cotton industry, which is a~bundantly
able to pay for its own investigating,
than there is for similar expenditure for
the special investigation of any one Of
fifty or a hundred other lines.
The census Of 1900 shows loss estab-
lishments engaged in cotton manufac-
ture. The aggregate capital of these
concerns is given as S467, 240 900. An
industry which could raise $4,000 by a
contribution OF only $40 from each Of
the concerns engaged in it should not
ask the Federal Government to find a
market for its products. The value Of
the exports of the Standard Oil Com
pany exceeds the value Of all our ex-
ports Of manufactured cottons. The
shrieking whistles Of American locomo-
tives, the hum of American sewing ma
chimes and the clicking Of American
typewriters are heard In all the corners
Of the earth. American bridges span
many a foreign river; American saws
and axes bring down the forests Of all
nations; American agricultural imple-
ments turn the soil and gather the crops
of many lands; all kinds Of languages
are talked into American telephones, and
an American lead pencil can be bought
almost anywhere. Within ten years
boot and shoe manufacturers have in
creased their exports from 81 100000 to
IS, 900, 900, and our exports Of musical
instruments and OF soap have more than
doubled in a decade. All this has been
done by business men in business ways.
Still, 1t Is the logical expectation
that the Government will find markets
if Federal authority is to regulate and
control business methods. The cot
ton people are we'll to the front in tho
present movement. Within a year or
two the makers Of collar buttons and
the makers Of rubber heels may be call
ing for a Federal appropriation for
special agents to hunt up foreign markets
for their products.

10 what he wrote than 20 his manner OF writing.
Perhaps. rather, the hope Of the excavator is OF
something widely different. He dreams. or has
