OUR GREAT TRADE BALANCE.

Familiarity, says the Pittsburg Dis.
patch, with the fact that the war is
costing Great Britain for instance,
over $25,000,000 a day, and the other
powers in proportion, with a total ex-
penditue for England to date of
nearly fifteen billions, has given us a
better grasp on totals running into
zen figures. Billions, in fact, have be-
come commonplace, although the time
is not 80 remote when a billion-dollar
congress or country seemed almost as
fabulous as a billion and a half cor
poratiCn did later.
So when the government report an
nounce5 that our foreign trade for the
year ended June 80 amounted to over
six and One-half billions we have a
iairly clear idea of what it means
That Is nearly $4,000, 900 a day. We
eXporte nearly four and one-half bill
iOlIS v OIlHy DIS dSdlnSl DllllOu anu
half the previous year. Our i'm
ports also were the greatest in our
history about two and one-fifth bill
lions, taving trade balance in our
favor OF well over two billion dollars,
double that of the year before and
four tine that of 1914. In other words,
our trade balance has been piling up
at rate of $6,0OO,OOO a day.
Our exports last year exceeded the
annual average from 1911 to 1914 by
more tEan two billions, and our i'm
ports were nearly half a billion more
than the annual average in that
period
While Europe is spending billions in
destructive warfare, we, too, are deal
ing in billions-but constructive bill
lions. We, too, have our daily mil
lions coming in-not going out. And
this is but a fraction of our total
trade; our own great domestic mar
ket, the finest in the world, furnish
ing such a demand that our manufac-
turers have little capacity to spare for
foreign orders.

CONVENTION VS.. PRIMARY.

The report is being circulated to the
effect that Senator Shields favored
the selection of Judge Hill as chair
man of the State Committee, and
wanted friends on the committee in
order to have a convention instead OF
a primary to nominate candidate for
the Senate.
We happen to know tina, this is not
true. Senator Shields does not favor
a convention to nominate candidate
for United States Senator. In more
tina none speech in the Senate on the
bill to provide a temporary method
for the nomination and election of
United States Senators, under the
amendment to the Federal constitu-
ton providing for the election of Sen
ators by direct vote of the people, he
took the position that if the spirit oil
the amendment was to be carried out
Senator's should always be nominated
in primary elections; that to nomin-
ate by conventions would work very
little change in the old method OF
electing Senators by State Legisla-
lures, and that for these reasons he
was strongly in favor of primary
election system.
For years Senator Shields has ia
vored compulsory primary law for
Tennessee, to nominate all candidates
for political offices. A primary law
held under authority of the State,
With safeguards such as are provided
for the holding of general elections, in
order to prevent fraud ard corrup-
ton, and to secure an honest express
sion of the voters.
Should Senator Shields be candi-
date for reelection to the Senate, he
will willingly and cheerfully submit
his claims to the Democratic voters Of
Tennessee in a primary election.
