The figures »•••:•« $10,500,000 against $37,000,000, i increase of $12,500,000 in a single th, or one-third more. What that ' hird means to the American wage ers their weekly pay envelopes can tell. ■ the seven months ended January, manufacturers' materials formed 700,000 of our $020,000,000 im against $254,000,000 of $505,000,- I tlie same months of 1002, au in e of $32,700,000, or more than half 'O,OOO increase in the total. This is in every way comforting, as usy American factory means the i. . , everything else. . iff revisionists should take note of . ,ct that of the $280,700,000 mauu- I'ers' materials imported in the months of this fiscal year no less s .portion than $100,000,000 worth •i d free of duty. manufacturers' materials is meant . s•lasses—via, "articles in a crude ion ready for manufacturing" ii.•' "articles wholly or partially man red, lor u e in manufacturing." ureases referred to are almost in the tir.st class. That is still for the wage earners and all „• . ■ -ued. !; N Interesting to note the stages by .vhich materials for manufacturing ; .ve -ncreasingly entered iuto our im generally.

Thoie is another and equally gratify ing side to the story—the increasing en •■> of exported manufactures into . ...• ■• -neral exports. Shipments of letures in January, 1905, ;ed to $40,513,000, or 33.37 per ;•:;! ti« total exports for the mouti). 1. ulnently desirable proportion has ■ i reached by the following fiscal . ■■.;:• • tages: .1850, 13 per cent; 1870, I i pet cent; 1800, 17.8 per cent; 1900, r cent; 11)05 (seven months), 34 >-v <■ :it. 1 ( i 'lie seven months of this fiscal : • xports of manufactures were v.M, 1,000, against $250,000,000 for • i ceding similar months, an in if $52,000,000.
