An illustration of how the foreign manufacturers are favored by the pres ent tariff luw la furnished by a slate ment of the United States consul at Bradford, England, showing tlie value of dec.ared exports irom tnat consular uls trlet to the United States during tne month of May, 1694 and 15.

Lool.lng tu the deitalle, cf tne statement It Is suown I. .at the'rt was an enormous Increase In the exports of worsted coatings, stuff goods, woolen and cotton goods, worsted, mohair nnd rn.lt ya.ns and other articles whicn coma Into direct competition with American manufacturers. VVhilo the trade of this one manufacturing district In Bng.ainl wlcn tne United Stutes has increased WW per cent in a single year, that of some other districts has undoubtedly grown to liedhy, If not quite, as great an extent, and this Is the way tho Democratic tariff rolicy works for the benefit of the manu facturers of our greatest commercial ilval. No wonder the London board of trade extended to Mr. Wilson the ex traordinary compliment of a banquet at which the Democratic policy was ,auded and the hope earnestly expressed that that party would long continue In con trol or tne government. It will be re membered that on that occasion Air. Wll son advised his entertainers to look out for their markets, because under the new tariff the American manufacturer was going to make an effort to capture them, but this warning did not disturb the equanimity of the shrewd British business men there assembled, who well knew what the Democratic policy meant for them. As yet the American munu fncturer has not captured any foreign market nor Is there any proBpegt of his doing so, but the British manufacturers are realising all the advantages the) hoped for from the new tariff. Tho Brad ford statistics furnish an Instructive ob ject lesson for those who are Interested In the we.'fare of American Industries and American labor. The commercial Importance of Japan, now that she is becoming to be more wldoly rocognised than before, is likely to become overestimated In some uJitr ters, while In others the tendency will be to underrate It. The statistics of Japanese trade, 'however, furnish a sur prising record of advance, and one which will not be easily discounted oven among the moat prosperous nations. From 18S1 to ISM her output of textiles In creased from $5,000,000 to J35.000.000, or sevenfold In six years. Tito export.! of Japanese products seven years sgo amounted to about JSj.Wj.ooo, but In XK this had increased to $75,000,000. or 40 per cent. The activity In si.k manufac ture has been sharply felt for some time by European manufacturers. These facts are Interesting n themselves, and they are eapeolally valuable as a basis on which to form a definite conception of Japanese commerclul probabilities. The committee on sound money of the New York Hanker' association put the issue very forcibly in their report, that the banker of the state of New York, "being Indebted to the people to tho ex tent of $0,000.000 In the form of deposits and $193,000,000 In the form of capita, and surplus, declare ourselves In favor of honest money," and. of "a currency good and stable, based on the highest standard known to the sisterhood of na tions." It Is curious how many people seem to think that sound money i In the interest of th 1i,U iriflsll-n somehow In the Interest of "the people." The hunk w hich are supposed to repre sent the "creditor class," are the debtors of their dopositcrs. Actually, a bank 1 an association of depositors for mutual accommodation, the money ot thoie who have more than they need being loaned cut to those who have less. The stock holders, wrno furnish the capital for car rying on the business are paid by the profits; but so far as tho corporation Is distinct from the body of depositors, it Is largely their debtor. Thus tho effe; -. of "cheap money" wou'.d be to enable the bank? to pay their depositors in a depreciated currency and divide the bal ance among the stockholders. Host of the gold In the counrty, except that In the United States treasury, is held by the banks as a reserve lor the protection of their depositors. If they could pay their depositors in silver they could afford to retire from business on the profits. And they would have to retire, because nobody woufd ever again trust a bank that did such a . thing. And nobody would trust a nation that pro posed that debts contracted on a basis of one hundred cents to the dollar should be paid in dollars of fifty cents. Another striking proot ..: business Im provement Is to bo seen In the reports of the postal service. During the quarter ending with July, the receipts of the twenty largest post offices rose to J6.794,- 000, a gain of MO,000, or more than 7 per cent, and in the next ten cities In point of receipts there was a gain of $50,000. Such figures Imply activity in trade and a general feeling of encouragement. During July the traffic passing through the Sault Ste. Msrie canal was 2,477,000 tons, an Increase of 157,000 tons over that of the corresponding month of last year. tne tonnage for six months Is 50 per cent more than that of the Suez Canal for twelve months. This shows the ex tont and Importance of the commerce of tho great lakes, which Is constantly In creasing. ino Importation of shoddy has In creased over 1CO0 per cent in the last seven months. A full explanation of what this b.ioddy Is and what becomes of It won. J tie of Interest to the American ieop.e.

Tho dintcu.ty iviia tuo present system appears to have uueu t'.iat there was no lvg'i.uilon of i.iu Issues of circulation to suit tiw wants of the state or of private business. Tnese issues appear to 'have bten controlled, vncu conlro.ied at all, by a privato us u..ikiiun among the bunks tliemsc.ves. i'ne new state bank is .expected to con iro. nnd resu.ale tho papor currency, it la to uccomp.i. h this regulation by a blnip.e, careful and provident discount po.lcy, and Its powers are limited. The circulation privilege will be surrendered jy tno cuntonul tuid .lolnt-stock bunks to me state bui.k. A large part of Its busl .itss will consist in redlscountlug the bl.ls recelvab.e of tho other banks. In this way tho latter will at all times be able to secure a supply of paper .iioney, Issued by the state bank, to jurry on their business. This system nilis'ht prove vuluable In ine United tSates. It would Imply the creation of a iurge central bank with tho privilege of Usulng all the notes of the country. Its business would be con- ned to supplying currency to a.i the other banks, upon tho presentation or oills recelvublo for discount. The charge .'or the rediscount would be nominal, not sufficient to- raise the rate of interest .tjupreclably and yet u'lTording a fair profit upon the Issue of tno circulation. The ory of monopoly would no doubt be raised against such a system, but it vvould nevertheless be ono having great advantages. A state or national bank requiring currency could, by depositing tot.'ls receivable secure what was nects sary to carry on Its business, tho aggro late amount furnished any b.i"k being estrlcted to a safe promo o-. l'i its .'Bipltnl.

The benefit of the recent hard times has been to expose the iniquity of many undertakings of the second and third class. Whether the warning will last be yond a few years Is doubtful. In each generation will be found a body of men of a plausible and to some extent able type whose moral sense is obtuse, and who have no sense of wrong In promot ing these speculative patent bubbles or Inflated "Industrials," as they are called while on the other band, each genera tion produces Its proportion of those who are ready to be fleeced in their effort to make something out of nothing. Such dupes are very apt to be the descendants of men Who have penuriously and labor iously piled up wealth, but whose chil dren, "not having been brought under the healthy stimulus of prospective neces sity, and for whom nothing else has been provided," lose the property with which they have been charged. In many cases this method of distribution works a benefit to the community. The prop erty passes from the hands of those who have proved to be Incapable of making good use of It, while they themselves are sometimes developed Into active and useful persons under tho pressure of the need of working which they have brought upon themselves In their effort to live on profits made at the cost of other people's losses. Hence the benefit of hard times will presently be further developed under this law, to the end that those who take over to themselves the specific title of the "iworklng people" ofthls country will secure to their own use and enjoy ment a larger share of an increasing product than they ever attained before; being already in the enjoyment of the largest share of the most abundant pro duct as compared to all other nations In the' so-called civilized world. What may be the effect of these progressive conditions of increasing welfare upon a country which Is now (he lightest taxed for national purposes of any machine using nation, the future only can tell.
