the marvel Of the age, and IT has been
attained with 100000 men under
arms. The war has given US markets
of which we little dreamed three
years ago. We are in hopes of hold
ing at least a portion Of that trade
when the war has ceased.
Some misguided individuals believe
that in the continuance Of our export
trade lies the sole assurance of our
post war prosperity. But Europe and
japan have their eyes on the markets
which We now command, as well as on
the free market Of the United States.
Europe must sell manufactured goods
at any price that will keep her indus
try afioat, and the Orientals have a
wage scale that will enable them to
undersell any country
Continue the present tariff policy and
the branches Of our export trade will
wither as the roots of our home in
dustries are gnaWed by foreign com
petition. Return to the policy of pro-
lection to home industries. which have
SO developed in efficiency and size. and

Getting Toqether

AS if Americans had learned lesson
from the Japanese missions sent to this
country, many representatives of the
important Industries Of the United
States are hurrying 10 the Orient in
order to arrange business connections
for the future The Canadian Pacific
steamship arriving in Yokohama on
October 18th carried more than twenty
prominent American merchants.
Among them We're Warren w. Baker,
president, and Francis $. Carr. vice
president, of the Pennsylvania Steel
Export Co. which has been sending
$4,000, 600 worth of steel and iron to
Japan annually. The list of Americans
includes officers of oil companies, silk
manufacturers and milliners.
The tide of commerce is not running
in one direction, however, because ac-
cording to the Japan Advertiser of
October eth. there are now III New
York more than six hundred business
men representing almost every branch
Of trade in the Island empire. Thir-
teen new offices have been opened in
the American metropolis By agents of
japanese manufacturers. Many of
these merchants are accompanied by
their families and are planning more
or less extended stays in America.
Thus We see the Yankees and the
Far East Yankees" getting together.
