next year, it will not be because they
were too late in getting their cam
paigns started. Because of the early
activity of the Democrats, Republi-
cans are in some communities, taking
steps to protect themselves against a
coup. In Cook county, Illinois, for
instance, a committee of seven on
ways and means has been selected
including such men as Representative
Madden, County chairman Galpin and
former State Chairman West, repre-
senting all the different factions and
including men independent of faction,
for the purpose of bringing about har-
mony in the ranks and thus present
ing more solid front against the we'll
organized Democrats. There are many
who believe that Republicans in every
section of the country should follow
this example of vigilance and not
sacrifice an election by permitting the
Democrats to practice all the party
preparedness.

South American Trade Increases.

This nations trade with the coun.
tries of South America is at least
three times as extensive as it was
in the year Immediately preceding the
outbreak Of the great world war. In
the eight months ended with August
(the latest month for which figures
are available) exports to the sister
republics of the south aggregated
1SS,0O0,0O0 compared with only $685.
100000 in the corresponding period
in 1914. Imports from South America
totalled $433,O0O,O00 compared with
$157 100000 in 1914. Thus, it will be
seen, this country's total trade with
the southern continent in the first
eight months of this year represented
value of $62O,OOO,000 against only
222,000,0 900 in the same time in 1914.
To Argentina, Peru and Chile. OK
ports from ,the United States more
than trebled, while those in Uruguay
quadrupled The exports to Venezula
Colombia, Brazil and Ecuador were
practically three times as great as
those in 1914. Argentina contracted
for $62,256, 900 worth of United States
products compared with only $685.
900 in the first eight months Of 1914.
Exports to Brazil were $40,197 900
against $15,973,0OO to Chile, $32,971,-
900 against $10,S00,000. .n
The records at Washington show
large increases in imports from the
South American countries, especially
in those from Argentina. Chile, Uru-
quay and Peru. The United States
imported $133, 100000 of Argentina
products in the first eight months of
this year, compared with $40,752,0O0
in the corresponding period Of 1914
Chile sold us $96,626,OO0 against 49,.
