KANSAS AND MISSOURI

IN THREE YEARS.
Bank Df'imsltH More Than Doubled
L'nder This Itepubllenil AilinluliitrHtlon
—A Comjiarlsoii of the Inrremc In
Value* of I.lve Stock und Staple Crops.
The Democratic party is notoriously
an anti-prosperity party, and the farm-
ers and wage-earners in Kansas and
Missouri must not allow themselves to
be led away by the false promises and
calamity howling of their frien.ls who
are assembling today in national con-
vention.
Missouri has gained $128,000,000 In
wealth under this Republican admin-
istration.
The state of Kansas has gained al-
most $100,000 in wealth under this Re-
publican administration.
These substantial facts, showing
that great prosperity has visited Mis-
souri and Kansas during the last three
years, should not be forgotten by their
citizens during the whirl and excite-
ment of the Democratic convention.
Our statements are from offlci.il fig-
ures and show the increase in wealth
in these two sfates to be as follows:

Total ....$205,800,532 $333,944,300
INCREASE

In Kansas if will be noted that the
farmers have gained $80,000,000
through the increased value of their
live stock and principal crops this year
as compared with 1896. In Missouri
the farmers have gained $40,000,000
this year alone from the same source.
The following detailed statement of
values of live stock is official, being
tkaen from the returns of the de-
partment of "agriculture: t

Swine 12,718,709 24,000,000
Total $93,718,709 $113,806,386
In Kansas the largest gains to far-
mers have been in their cattle and
hogs. This they well know, because
their returns when selling their live
stevk have been so much larger this
year than they were under a Demo-
cratic administration.
The next table shows the improve-
ment in the price of the staple crops
grown by farmers, which represent an
increase of $28,000,000 for Kansas, and
over $20,000,000 for Missouri:
KANSAS.
1896. 1899.
Corn $44,592,121 $59,405,306
Wheat 19,400,505 19.903,383
Oats 3,809,401 8,608.170
Barley 19,065 859,455
Hay 13,316.122 18,045.678
Potatoes 2,015,803 4,259,866
Wool 150,667 249.673
Total $83,303,684 $111,391,831
MISSOURI.
1896. 1899.
Corn $35,353,730 $48,874,519
Oats 3.374,583 4.871,844
Cotton 747,689 1,324,800
Hay 15,996,275 19,339,962
Potatoes 2.435.S69 3,502.998
Wool 311.724 497.312
Total $58,219,870 $78,411,405
Corn, oats, hay and potatoes show
the largest gains in both states. While
wool is not so much grown here as in
the far western states, still the in-
crease under protection in the value
of the clip has been satisfactory to
those farmers who raise sheep.
In Missouri this year's cotton crop
was worth almost twice as much as it
was in 1896 under the Democratic ad-
ministration.
Lastly, an examination of the num-
ber of bank deposits in Kansas and
Missouri is full of facts upon which
our citizens can congratulate them-
selves. The' figures are taken from
the last annual report of the comp-
troller of the currency:
In the state of Kansas there were
53,151 people who had bank accounts
in 1894; last year there were 100,840
bank accounts in that state
In 1894 the total deposits In Kansas
amounted to $17,147,160; last year the
total amount of the deposits was $33,-
605.101.
There has been an increase of prac-
tically 100 per cent, both in the num-
ber of people who had money to de-
posit in the banks, and in the total
amount of money on deposit in Kansas.
In the state of Missouri there were
117,367 persons who had bank ac-
counts in 1894; last year there were
213,009 bank accounts. In 1894 the to-
tal amount of deposits in Missouri was
$53,921,953. In 1899 the deposits In
all the banks of Missouri had increased
to $141,726,449.
While the number of depositors in
Missouri had increased by 90 per cent,
the total amount of money deposited
had increased by 160 per cent.
These facts and figures do not show
the increase in the business done at
the stores, mines and factories, nor the
larger amount of wages paid to the
thousands of people who earn their
livelihood in these two states.
While the Democratic orators are en-
larging upon the benefits that will
happen to the country if a Democratic
president and Democratic congress be
elected this year, our citizens should
not. neglect the blessings and pros-
perity which they have derived under
the Republican administration that is
now in power.
It is unwise to throw away the sub-
stance for the shadow.
M'KINLE'YS AMERICANISM.
Englhlinieu Do Not Kiitliuse Over IIU
■tennnilnutlou.
London, June 23 (Copyright, 1900, by
the New York Tribune.)—If there be
any doubt in the United States respect-
ing English opinion of McKinley and
Republican politics, it may be dispelled
by the reticence of the London and
provincial press respecting the work
of the Philadelphia convention. There
are few comments on it, and such as
there are have a perfunctory sound.
These are not eulogies of McKinley,
and the Republican party is not em-
barrassed by English patronage or
flattery. The party platform is des-
cribed as moderato and the nomina-
tions as good as the circumstances
permitted. The nearest approach to
complaint is the Spectator's remark
that McKinley is possibly too much of
a politician, but that he has won and
receives international respect.
The English press is preoccupied
with affairs in South Africa and
China, and has no space in reserve for
a trivial incident in Anglo-Saxon his-
tory, such as the election of a presi-
dent by a nation of eighty millions.
Moreover, there are no illusions here
respecting either President McKinley
or the Republican party. Both are
known to be downright American and
not in any sense English. President
McKinley is not suspected of having
ever made an apology for introducing
the tariff bill which bore his name,
and the party which renominated him,
so far from repudiating protectionism,
has reaffirmed it and added to it subsi-
dies for American shipping.
Nobody in England ever speaks of
McKinley as anything but an uncom-
promising champion of American ideas
and policies. Hence his renomination
is received here without enthusiasm
and with quiet reserve, as possibly not
the best choice, but one which divides
the Republican party least.
$323,000,000 FOR FARMERS,
last Year'* Staple Crops Were Tlial
Much More Thau iu 1893.
The American farmer is prospering
when well-paid wage-earners are
carrying well-filled dinner pails, as the
following comparison of the farm val-
ues of principal crops shows:
1895. 1899. -
Crop. Total Value. Total Value.
Corn $544,985,534 $629,210,110
Wheat 237,938,998 319,545,269
Oats 163,655,068 198,167,975
Rye 11,964,826 12,214,118
Barley 29,312,413 29,594,254
Potatoes .... 78,9^4,901 89,328,832
Cotton 200,338,096 332,000,000
Hay 393,185,615 411,926,187
Tobacco 35,574,220 45,000,000
Flax 12,000,000 24,000,000
$1,767 939,671 $2,090,986,735
Plenty of work and good wages fol-
low the opening of the mills, increas-
ing the home market for farm pro-
duce so as to make these ten staple
crops worth upwards of $323,000,000
more to the American farmer than un-
der the Democratic free-trade Adminis-
tration, which shut our mills, killed
our home industries, and gave our
trade to foreigners.
Add to this increase of $323,000,000
the advance of $633,000,000 in the value
of live stock within1 the last few years,
and it will be seen that the farmers of
the country have gained almost a
round billion dollars through the bet-
ter times under this Republican ad-
ministration, without estimating the
increased values of their fruit, butter,
cheese, eggs, vegetables and other
small crops, to say nothing of the in-
creased price paid for wool.
A Point for Farui«*r .
Democrats are trying to make the
farmers discontented because the^ are
paying a little more money this year
for their wire nails and wire for fenc-
ing. Of course they never point out
to the farmers that hi. extra profit this
year on two or three bushels of corn
will pay for any increase in the price
of a keg of nails, and that his profits
on all his farm products in this year
alone will pay for many times the
cost of his barbed wire, besides leaving
him a handsome surplus to put iu
bank or pay off his mortgage.
Kepubllcau Tariff Result.
During President Harrison's term of
office, the total customs receipts under
the McKinley tariff amounted to $209,-
445,000 more than the receipts derived
from the Wilson bill under President
Cleveland. A tariff for revenue only*
is a misnomer.
BENEFIT OF COLONIES.
Their Value an u Market for Produell
of l'areut.
The non-British world buys 15 per
cent of its total foreign merchandise
from the United Kingdom; the Britieh
colonial world buys 43 per cent of its
foreign merchandise from the United
Kingdom. The total imports of the
British colonics amount to $1,075,000 -
000 annually, and Great Britain, by
supplying 43 per cent of this instead of
15 per cent, which she averages in the
commerce of other countries, makes an
additional market for $300,000,000 an-
nually of her products. Her total ex-
ports to foreign countries (omitting
the colonies) are $1,130,000,000, or 15
per cent of their total imports, and if
to this Acre added a like percentage of
the imports of the colonies her total
sales would be $1,190,000,000, instead of
the grand total of $1,480,000,000 which
she enjoyed in 1896, the year to hich
these figures relate. It is thus appar-
ent that her sales are enlarged through
her colonial system in the sum of
about $300,000,000 in round figures per
annum, thus increasing by 25 per cent
her total exports, and creating, by her
colonial system a market for $300,000,-
000 worth of her products and manu-
factures.
1 Not only has Great Britian added to
her market by bringing the 350,000,000
people of her colonies into the colonial
relationship, but there has evidently
boeft, through the material develop-
ment which has followed this rela-
tionship, a great increase in the pur-
chasing power. The construction of
highways, harboiB, railways, and tele-
graphs has evidently quickened the
general business conditions and, with
the increased activity and prosperity,
enlarged the consuming power.
That the construction of roads, har-
bors, railways, and telegraphs and the
establishment of postal and banking
facilities must increase the activity,
productiveness, and consequent, con-
suming power goes without saying.
The railways now in the British colon-
ies alone are more than 55,000 miles in
length, the telegraph lines nearly 150,-
000 miles in length, and the highways
far in excess of that. A large propor-
tion of the railway lines is under the
control of, and in many cases operated
by, the government, and it is an inter-
esting fact that the lines operated by
the government expend a smaller pro-
portion of their total receipts in run-
ning expenses than those operated by
private corporations. In nearly all the
colonies there are savings banks in
conjunction with the postoffices, and
the deposits in the savings banks of
the colonies amount to more than
$300,000,000.
In the Import trade of Great Brit-
ain the colonies also prove advantage-
ous from the Briilnh standpoint. Over
one-lifth of the more than two billion
dollars which Great Britain sends out-
side of her immediate limits in pur-
chase of supplies is spent among the
people of her colonies, anu thus large-
ly contributes to the prosperity of ei-
ther Rritish colonists or British cap-
ital. That the industries oi the col-
onies are to a considerable extent con-
trolled by British capital goes without
saying, and that the expenditure of
nearly $500,000,000 of British money in
British colonies each year for the
products *f those colonies must benefit
the capital thus employed and so re-
flect to the business advantage of the
home country whence that capital is
drawn is equally apparent. The total
imports into Great Britain from the
colonies in 1896 were over £93,000,000,
and in 1891 were over £99,000,000, or
in round terms, $500,000,000. forming
more than one-fifth of the total im-
ports into the United Kingdom.
The following table shows the ex-
ports and imports of the United King-
dom to and from its colonies in 1897:

total exports of the United States, the
value of the pound sterling in which
the exports are stated bring $4.86.
