ORIENTAL TRADE.
(From Goodwin's Wtekly.)
Mr. Ernest Schultz, in a
German paper, the I'russisch
Johrbucher, gives his idea of
why the United States has failed
commercially in the Pacific. He
tells how J. J. Hill from boy
hood dreamed of sometime an
economic opening of the Orient
to trade; how the late Mr. Har
riman shared his views; how at
first the Hill ships went loaded
with flour for China, but have
since lost the trade, and ascribes
it all to JaDanese competition
which is crowding the ships of
all nations from the Pacific.
The article is a very able one,
except that it lacks the chief es
sential. The writer gives many
reasons \\4iy the Americans have
failed and the Japanese have
won and are winning more and
more every month and year,
only one of which has any found
ation in fact. Japan is subsid
izing her ships, and is a, mighty
factor in the result, but that is
not the real reason. If the learn
ed German will look over the
rate of exchanges in the Orient,
he will see the main cause of all
the trouble. Japan is paying her
ottilurs just the weight of silver
that she paid in the long
she is paying her coal miners
and shipbuilders in the same
way; the coal and labor paid for
by American ships, is, in Ori
ental money, twice as much
as was the cost twenty-five
years ago, and so is every arti
cle that the United States seeks
to export to the Orient, and
hence the "commercial failure."
If the United States continues
to ignore silver as money and
refuses to begin to restore the
merchant marine, her trade with
half the world will
Japan, China, Straights Settle
ment, India, Turkey and Egypt
and be desperately crippled in
South America.
Her present policy towards
silver and towards taking any
steps to restore our shipping
to the sea, will, if continued,
eventuate in driving from us the
trade of half the world. There
is no possible escape., With
Japan elimirtated, still our trade
with China would be as good
dead, she buys nothing
cept what she must have and
cannot quite yet produce from
hei own factories. Our nation
is really committing commercial
suicide with half the world.

Prosperity reigns supreme in
