American-made gr.imaphones are now invading the oriental market and seem to find no barrier in the Chinese wall. When reinforced by moving picture machines the conquest of the Chinese should be complete. A re cent consular report upon the subject contains the following: With the steady Increase In the European population of the far east, a growing demand for all sorts of musical goods is developing, while gramophones and talking machines are finding an ever-extending market among the Chinese. American trade, or the whole, seems to be doing bet ter in the latter line, owing mainly to the excellency of the machines sold and good representation. One firm in Shanghai which has a general agency for a leading Ameri can gramophone is selling large quan tities of machines and disks. They establish agencies In all ports, sell directly to the natives, and supply them with Chinese and other musical n cords, all of which are made in the United States. Aside from the' articles already mentioned this firm sells American banjos, organs, and sheet music In large numbers and quantities. The firm manufactures 15 pianos month 1;', for which raw material Is all im ported, and it distributes large quan tities of German harmonicas, the lat ter being so cheap as to defy compe tition. Furthermore, American pian olas are being dealt in to a large ex tent, but this trade will soon suffer, as the firm has Just started to repro duce them. The first specimen has jt;st been finished at the Shangh il factory and has proved a success. , American exnortprs will have' tn I watch the market closely to keep a trade in their hands in which a satis factory' start has been made. Germany seems to be the main other nation contending for the mar ket in gramophones. They manufac ture cheaper goods and get some or ders, a firm In Tsingtau doing a good lusiness In these machines. LIKES DIRECT PRIMARIES. Direct primaries are. being held In many states for the first time this year, and in nearly every Instance the results have Jolted the strongly intrenched political machines and relegated many politicians of the old school to the oblivion of enforced re tirement. The Chicago Daily News, in discussing the trend of events, says that the direct primary is receiving i the attention of the best thinkers of the day and Is being discussed by the newspapers and from the rostrum everywhere. Ten years ago the ad vocates of the direct primary were lookf-d upon by most men as cranks and dreamers, but not bo today. Many of the statf-s have already embraced the id-; and others will follow as soon as their laws can be revised to that end. One of the advantages of the law, according to the views of the Chicago News is that Its operation voters long in alvance of an election to obtain a fair amount of knowledge of the party candidates. There Is, noring cut and dried about direct noranre and superstitutlon. . Ti. . t . .u I' ore knows himself and knows irlmar.es The appeal of the men . . ,. . . , ... . I life as It Is, there is nothing anywhere who teek nominations is to the party(to ,je afrald of. It one knowg not n)m. voters themselves. Consequently the self nor life, fear Is unavailing, use-1 voters on entering the campaign In b?RS. I whl.-h candidates of d if rro r,nrtin.' are pitted against one another, have much advance information to guide them. They know not only aome V.i't.g of the personality of each con spicuous candidate, but they know what Influence led to his nomination what he stands for. In short. The voter has little opportunity to get so clear a view of a candidate after an entire party puts Itself at his back and makes support of him a test of loyalty to party traditions and party prim ipleg. Then the voter merely sees that alt republicans or all democratls are expected to sup- port thin or that candidate, because he Is the party nominee. The ques tion of fitness is smothered under the demand for party success. As a conscientious citizen ho may strive to learn whether or not a candidate Is fit, but he Is likely to be confused by the clamor of friends and foes, so that be votes the straight party ticket. THE 1NDOMI TAllI.E'S SPEED. When the "Lustanla" recently broke the transatlantic record by cov ering the distance from land to land ;U a speed of 25.1 knots. It was pre sumed that she had placed the figures at a mark where they would nt.ind for many months to come, says the Sci entific American. Outside of her dis abled sister, the 'Mauretania," there has apparently no vessel n sight that could come within several knots of that speed. Certainly, it was not for a moment supposed that a cruiser battleship carrying an armament of eight 12-inch guns would be able to set out and better the performance; yet this Is what has been done by the 'Indomitable," one of the three "Dreadnaught" type of cruisers re- cently built for the British navy. The fiat was accomplished on her return with the Prince of Wales from the Quebec celebration. It-is claimed that on her trials the ship made 27 knots for seevral hours; and advan tage was taken of the opportunity for a long ocean test to drive the ship under full power from land to land. The average speed of the "Indomita ble" for the whole course was 23.13 knots, and for four hours In the early part of the voyage she made 26.4 knots. Incidentally, she also captur ed from the "Lusitania" the record for the highest single day's run to the westward, by steaming 603 knots from noon to noon. The vessel was not In any way stripped for this perform ance. All the heavy gu...: hoard, the magazines were filled with ammunition, and she carried the full equipment of active service. The best previous transatlantic trip by a war ship was made by the cruiser "Drake" on her return trip from America a few years ago, when she averaged 19 knots. Our own cruiser "Columbia" more than a decade ago, established the first record of this kind by steam ing from the British coast to Handy Hook at an average speed of IS knots. IS IT TRI E XOW? Carl Schurz, In the last of the series of his famous reminiscences, publish to in the September McClure's, speaks Mrongly of the moral soundness of the plain people of America, as oppos ed to the dangerous moral cowardice i f the politicians in the republic. Ho says: "I have had an active part In a great many political campaigns and probably addressed as many popular meetings as any man now living; and I have always found that whenever any public question under public dis cussion had In It any moral element, an appeal to the moral sense of the people proved uniformly the most powerful argument. With the major ity of the people, notably the 'plain people,' using the term In the sens'? ir. which Abraham Lincoln was wont to use It I found the question, 'is this morally right?' to have ultimately more weight than the question 'will this be profitable?' " RE STRONG AND IXAI'RAID. Fear is your deadliest foe. Also it Is a figment of your fancy. And useless. Physiologists gay fear Impoverishes the blood. Interferes with the assimi lation of food, attacks the nerve cen ters and lowers the physical power. It makes a man physically unfit. If so, what must Its effect on the mind be? It lessens one's ability to think, lowers his ambition, weakens his character and affects his happiness. In short, ail the forces of personality go In front of fear. Fear whispers to the young, strong to do and dare, and the strength be- comes as water. It assails the middle aged, and the uplifted arm of energy ! falls inert. It torments the old and I robs It of its peace. And yet Strone thief as It is. It Is an abnor- nvil Veakllng, for It Is the son of Ig To put It plainly, there are two things one should never fear first, i what he can help and, second, what he cannot help. Edwin A. Nye. !

Miller, of Mata moros, furnishes the following infor mation: According to a recent issue of a Mexican newspaper, suggestions wor thy of e nsiderailon on the part of American xporters seeking enlarged . : : trade in Mexico were given by one of the consuls of this republic !. the United States in an address to a commercial club In a western city. In this connection manufacturers and exporters must bear In mind when reading these suggestions that the Mexican consul addressed u commer cial club Interested solely in its local manufactures and products and that the suggestions might need some mod ifications when applied to the general manufacturing and productive inter ests of the I'nlted States. The suggestions of the consul, which contain much that Is worthy of the consideration of manufacturers and exporters of the United States in general, are as follows: "The establishment of a commercial agency In Mexico City, with clerks thoroughly conversant In the Spanish language to conduct the business cor respondence. The club should have traveling salesmen who speak the Spanish language and who are famil iar with the trade conditions and the wants of Mexican merchants. "The traveling salesman could carry samples of the lighter classes of goods but machinery, farming implements, and other heavy classes of manufac tures should be on display In two or more of the principal cities, where men should be kept to demonstrate the use of machinery. Agriculture Is rapidly developing In Mexico, and there Is a strong demand for improv ed farming machinery." The consul believes that It would I)" a great advantage for manufactur ers to maintain agencies and distrib uting centers in the City of Mexico and In Monterey, both being Import ant railway centers. Monterey could be a distributing point for northern and western Mexico and the City of Mexico for central and southern i Mexico.
