PREFACE.
The year 1898 was one of the most interesting and important in the history of the United States and of the world. It was the year that witnessed the war between this country and Spain, in which the achievements of our army and navy astonished the entire world; the destruction of Spanish sovereignty in the West indies; the loss to Spain of her colonial power in the Pacific; the annexation of the Republic of Hawaii to the United States; the first steps in a movement for the dismemberment of China; the rapid growth of a sentiment among the Jews looking to their return to Palestine; the initial act having for its object the disarmament of Europe; the disastrous culmina- tion of the most gigantic wheat speculation in the history of commerce; the almost total absorption of the continent of Africa by the European powers; the obliteration of the last remnant of sectional feeling between the northern and southern portions of this country; the election of a new congress, and many other less important events that will be lasting in their bearing on our national history.
THE DAILY NEWS ALMANAC for 1899 has made every effort to cover all these various subjects and to deal with the facts involved in a fair and wholly impartial manner. The articles on the Philippines, Puerto Rico, Cuba, the Mariana islands and Hawaii are prepared with the purpose of giving the reader a concise and accurate view of their people, products, trade and com- merce that will show their present and prospective importance. The section devoted to the war with Spain deals exclusively with the facts as they have been established, leaving to general history the speculations and opinions that have grown out of it.
Much important and valuable statistical matter has been added to the departments of agriculture, education and finance, while the army and navy have been given an enlarged space devoted to the increased importance of these branches of the national government.
The election returns are full, accurate and complete, showing the trend of political preferences in each of the states and territories, and no pains have been spared to make THE DAILY NEWS ALMANAC for 1899 of permanent value to its possessors.
