There is no other branch of manufacturing in this country which
is so distinctly impresses itself: no other line that is so
entirely free from imitation of the ideas of the Old World; no
other line that has so quickly asserted its claim to its own
birthright and turned the universal import trade into a great
and constantly increasing export business.
All this has been done within the brief period of the last
half-century.
