CHANG FOR AMERICAN TRADE IN RUSSIA

Rusias minister of foreign affairs has issued a statement regard.
ing the foreign commerce of that nation which should be considered
carefully by American merchants and shipping men. In part the state
men says:
For America, especially does Russia open opportunity or
an industrial outlet such as can hardly be overeshmated We
have an empire of H0WOOW souls, and the three hundred MIL
lion dollars W e have been paying Germany yearly is but the De-
ginning OF a demand that will soon make Russia among the
most desirable and valuable markets in the world. Railroad
building and nw developments everywhere are the prelude to
an era Of prosperity in this country such ash has never been seer
here before
In ONE commodities the United States and Russia re commercial
rivals, particularly in the staples of wheat and petroleum; but America
has much that Russia needs, and with the railroad and industrial de-
velopment that is promised in the czars empire should come a ire
mendous demand for American railroad materials, bridges, electrical
machinery and appliances in the fabrication OF which the United States
leads the world.
During the fiscal year ended June 80, 1913 --latest statistics available),
$25363795.
Russia, with all its mighty extent and a population almost double
that OF the United States, has been a small customer Of ours and &c
OF theirs. Yet the annual export trade to Russia has been $3OOOOOUOO.
Trade with Russia by way of the Baltic ports is blocked for the
present, but the Pacific is practically open for Russian trade, and with
the trans-Siberian railroad in operation, America should be able even
now to begin increasing it's trade with the eager nation of 170O00N0
purchasers.

1t is announced that the National Republican Congressional COM

the G. O. p followers back home will no be told in handsome printed
form what their Congressman have been doing in the way Of combating
the evils of Democratic rule. The reason for this decision is apparent
the Republicans have no campaign issues. They cannot assan any OF
the achievements of the Wilson administration without attacking meth
brs of their party, for every important Democratic policy in the
congress has received more " less Republican support n
Democratic tariff bill received the votes OF three Republicans in the
House and ont in the Senate. The Currency bill was supported by -
House Republicans and three Senate Republicans. The Trade Commits

shared by the Bull Moose, who are also handicapped in attacking the

WASHINGTON. April 9.-Bitter
opposition to ratification of the treaty
between Colombia and the United
States, by which the former country
will receive 100000 in settlement
for the dispute over the Panama Ca

whose term as President the dispute
arose.

friendship of Colombia. and they will
spare no effort to obstruct its in
dorSement by the upper house of

President Wilson and Secretary of
State Bryan. on the other hand, are
understood to believe that the Co

Under the old system of represen :
tation the Southern and Territorial
representation was approximately 30
per cent of the convention, yet they
gave a very small percentage of the
electoral vote. This gave the party
bosses and the Republican admins
tration, if the party were in power
an apparent advantage over any con-
testant, as was emphasized by the
routing of the Roosevelt delegations
