in Iho waterway were signed In 1 Airis

that It ran lio changed to a sen-level

jection to making a waterway without

National Politics.
For a presidential election year 1901
was unprecedentedly quiet politically.
Tie national conventions, with th> ,x-
coptlon of that of tlm democratic party,
aroused only passing Interest. At the
republican gathering In June tlie poml-
natton of Theodore Roosevelt was n fore-
gone conclusion. Tho choice of Senator
Kali-banks for tho vie,'-presidency was
made without a contest. At the demo-
cratic convention the situation was dif-
ferent. No ono knew beforehand who
tlie nominees were t" lie, nor the exact
cha-neter the platform to be adopted.
The Pro,'.'(Hilags were follow,Hi with In-
terest from day lo day until lkirker and
Davis were nominated nnd the position
of Ihe j,arty on the financial question
was declared. Roosevelt and Fairbanks
were elected by a larger plurality than
had be n generally loo' .1 for Even
Missouri chose republican electors,
though electing a democratic governor.
IVhen the result of the election In the
states had become k- ,w:: Mr. Roosevelt
immediately issued n statement deelar-
ing that under no circumstances would
he ng.iln be a candidate for president on
tlie ground that he was opposed to the
third-term principle.
Commercial Prosperity.
Commercially the year was one of
general prosperity for the whole of the
United States. Trade of alt kinds was
ff,price.- were maintained nnd com-
plaints on the part of business men
were infrequent. There was a cessa-
tion in the formation of gigautlc trusts,
partly because some of them had proved
tailures so far as dill,bend paying was
concern,-nl and partly because the anti-
trust legislation of congress was fooled
hy tlio promoti rs. Tho decision against
the Northern Securities company was
a fill mod hy the United States Supreme
court in March, putting nn end to that
particulat kind of combination. The
union of railroads in regard to rates was
the subject of much comment after the
president's message to congress was
published. l/'Rislntion by congress giv-
ing the Interstate commerce commission
power to enforce ils rate decisions
was strongly urginl In many quarters
and the Indications are tlvu this ques-
ln the matter of , »1........

Nomewhut 1,'NS than had been antielp.it, <1

appoliitnu nt. According to an official
statement the total number of ndmls-
NietiN was 19,094,Sf,5. 1 if these 12,804 616

made on the buildings nnd grounds of

Gifts and Bequests Enormous.
Gifts to education, religion uml char-
ity in the United States in 1904 aggre-
gate more than J62.0O0.000. The total f,,r
1905 was about th, same. Andrew Car-
negie heads the list of givers. Ids bene-
factions amounting to $20,90;.This
sun was distributed ammii; nii,e libra-
ries. five colleges, two clubs. .1 home for
convalescents and a hero fund and lor
exoovations in Rome. Nine ......pie gave
away $1,00(1,000 or more each during the
year, tlielr gifts reaching a total of
$10,907,600.
Charity is First.
(Thurifies received tlie largest share of
tin- 1904 donations. Init educational insti-
tutions tlio a dose second. Each group
scoured niora than $18,000,000. The big-
gest educational gift, $5,000,000. went to
the Carnegie Institute, Pittsburg.

Farm Wealth Enormous.
"Five billions of dollars- a sum the
enormity of which it is difficult for the
mind to grasp-ean cons* rvatively be
placed ns the value *»f the products of
the farm in 1004. This fstlmatc is
placed nftrr deducting the val it* of fmw
crops fed to live stock, ami probably
does not fully ix'piesent tho value t f
wealth prt'Nluced on farms.
“To enable the mind partly to realize
what this stupendous production means,
it can be stated that since Columbus
discovered America the ;pdd mines of
the entire world have not produced as
much wealth as tho American farms
have In the imst few years. The value

railroads and three and a half times tho
value of the output of nil our mines and
quarries.”
Foreign Commerce Large.
The year 1904 has bun one of un-
usual activity ami prosperS:y in cur for-
eign commerce. While tlie exports may
fall slightly below those vi 1900 *ntl 1901,

That the aggregate makes a favorable
comparison with that of 1903 is not as
gratifying as the quarterly sopaiation.
which shows that the returns have im-
proved as the year advances. Thus, the
/list quarter was inueh the worst of tho
year, but stfll comnisled favorably with
tho last quarter of tlie preceding year,
and the closing three months contained
a much lower commercial death rate
than the s-ime months of 19(U. This
means that the depress ion reached its
climax early in tlie year and gradually
disappeared, until at the present time
the business situation is sound.
