THAT spanish American. Trade

II is always interesting to hear through
the medium of a truly wideawake press
Of profound and enlightened confabula-
tions among our great men with view
10 expanding this country's trade with
the Spanish American peoples. Much
more do we take pride in the various
ingenious suggestions offered to that end
by the distinguished confabulators. We
revel both patriotically and intellectually
in the "semi-dfficial bulletins" which dis
seminate these glad tidings.
Far be il from us TO disparsge really
llistrious symposium. What occurs to
MS is to broach the sentiment in all hu-
mility, of course our Ministers and
Consuls in Mexico and Central and
South America have for the last twenty
or thirty years wasted invaluable energy
and squandered seas OF ink in the effort
to explain to the State Department the
methods whereby the aforesaid trade can
be captured and retained According to
them, our merchants and shippers have
only TO furnish the kind Of merchandise
that is needed. to pack it in the fashion
our would-be customers demand, to re-
spect the Governments concerned so far
as to comply with their more or less
benighted regulations, and generally to
realize the fact that we cannot force our
commodities upon nations whose re-
auirements we treat with contempt and
whose laws we see fit to ignore. If we
have anything to sell that they want, and
il we choose to ship ii in such shape and
under such conditions as they expect.
very well and good We can do business
and a-plenty of it. There is no secret
about this. The shelves and pigeonholes
of the State Department fairly burst with
corroborative literature.
The question is whether our merchants
and manufacturers really seek this COM
merce and are in a position to conduct it.
There is a well defined impression in the
minds OF an enlightened few that the
aforesaid merchants and manufacturers
have more to do at home than they can
conveniently attend to, and that they
have neither the desire nor the ability to
enter into foreign ventures. II is well
enough to regale the multitude with these
announcements of official effort. Every
thing helps upon the eve Of a national
campaign. But as a matter OF homely
fact, do we want this trade, and il so,
why don't we seek it? The way has been
made entirely plain TO U.s. We have only
to accept thoroughly blazed and beaten
track
