The building railroad Ill AaSka' It was afraid that constructed by capital monop Wouu be created would become too rch the example would be bad and make poor men dscontene The exact justice might be Uncle Sam went down into his trousers pocket pulled a rOI and said "ere are few millions ol the peoples money; whole they do not know anythnS about big investments, will this money to build the road and exceeds the estimates will take some more their money and finish it, or If run short Will Dorto" he money can get per cent and the people don mnd that and then will the road to friends ot the ad Administration and show love hem but show the greedy mon oposts who control big roads trick two Tn cheap man agement.' , |
 On ifs face that has benevolent ook though true that onr benevolent Uncle Samuel already has fifty miles o railroad the Ismus oDaren and the charges eVe and paid that road excessive that were the manage ment of any great roads to copy the schedule o the Tan anna road apply it, they would their tracks torn up p an indignant people within month unless the interstate com mece commission neposed and changed rates back to the old figures.
 That example down on the Ishmus does not have en couragng the of Alaska but they doubtless reason that by they will be able to get coal as cheapy as they have been getting it from Japan
 But it is another that desire to have considered All men of all parties would like the United States take hold full share of the South American trade Now there IS only accomplish that purpose The men o oouth America talk different languages from ours BFaNi IS most them mostly large kind of barter The goods and wares from United States will have to be exchanged for such ducts as we need and South America supply.
 Again they all decipes of Manana that Is, they are accustomed to long credits It will be readily that to buiId m, pro ra' t,,o urst work of tme people must learn their different languages ana tylr methods
 Another thing must not be forgotten; we must sell our goods as ceapy Great Britain and Germany do can get no trade This makes it necessary carry goods Ill our ships Britain pays her ships subsidies, Germany pays her bountes.
 Our present administration, which includes the president and majority of both houses of feels It duty to have spasms whenever either subsidy bounty spoken And there you
 But there is a way to make beginning. 1t IS just as legitimate the the peoples money Tn one form prvave enterprise another and the South Amer enterprise is easy.
 About five should be built for trade the east coast country They should be first class and ot at least thousand each Their cost would be mere gafae say $5OO000 Then there should be about five de parment stores with stock of $ 100000 each One at Para coffee trade; Rio for general merchandising; at Santos sugar trade and at BuenO Ayres for all kinds of merchandise
 When the kees for the ships laid school should bel opened three democratic students Spanish and Portuguese Some architects should be sent in advance o have prepared for the goods then about $3OO should be aside to tide the first long delays.
 Of what the steamers might behind could bel paid of the treasury and be moulded in the deficit
 All the above could be covered by about $l500OO0 and what is $15 15000000 to a billion dollar countryf
 Seriously speaking that enterprise if nauguraed and carried alert and able would in ten give to the United States trade of all eastern South America And that is only way either by the government or bv private individuals aided by the government.
