United States of America now presents for the consideration of the American people, is "Why a people,' the decendauts trom sea roving an cestors, should fail to keep step . U L. ... ' . - a)"!""" latltug behind as ocean carriers?" The fact is that je are " If as a sea going people than we were one hundred years ago. In . 1800 with 6,304,483 ; people we had American built, ships with tonnage of. 669,921 ions em ployed in our foreign trade, and in 1903 there we're 833,776 ton nage of AmCrjcan built ships engaged in our, foreign trade, showing that, . while our popu lation that year was 80 372.0C0 or fifteen times greater than it was in 1800. our ships engaged in our foreign trade had but one and one third more tonnage in J903 than in 1800. To further illustrate the rela tive decline, of our merchant marine engaged 'in our foreign trade ! we will quote from an official report which gives the imports anJ exports, of the U S for 1800 thus: Exports of mer chandise at $70,971,780 a per capita ti $13,37, audj our im ports of merchandise at 91,252. 768 a per capita of 17,19. 4 By adding the exports and imports for " 1800 we' find our foreign trade s that . : year aggregated 1162,224,543. , In 1903 we im ported merchandise to the value of $1,025,719,237, a per capita o! imports of $12 54 and the .Bame year' we exported $1,420,141,679 worth of merchandise, a. per capita of exports of $17.32. By adding the exports and imports of 1903 "we find that our foreign trade for that year aggregated $2,445,860,916. These figures show that our foreign trade like that of our population increased fifteen fold from 1800 to. 1903, while our merchant marine only enlarged one and one third times. .. , . -. ". In 1800, the exported sgri culturaPproducts of the United States were valued at. $25,690, 534 a per onpita of farm exports of $1.82' In 1903 the farms in the United States produced for Export $873,321882 worth ; of produce, a per capita to all the people in the Uuited States of 10.86. From these figures it will be seen that the farms pro laced for export thirty four and aine tenths more in 1903 than in 1800 during which period oi :03 years our merchant marine nly increased one and one third times. In 1800 all the factories in the Uuited States exported pro lucts valued at $2,493,755 a per apita of not quite turty seven ents. The . products ' of thn American factories exported in 1003 were valued at $407,526, 1 59 a growth of 164 4 fold over be exports of 1800. In 1903 the imports into this country by sea weje valued at $959,511,045 of this $123,666,- 832 worth, or 12.9 per cent came in American ships and $835,- 844,210 worth in foreign ships ur exports by . sea in Amer ican ships iu 1903 were valued at $91,028,200 and that in foreign ships' at $1,190,262,378 being 92 9 per ceut of oor ex port" by sea, ' Onions For Pickling , FOB SALE Smell onion, for lOconta per gallon, deliTered to any part of ' tbe eity.
