AGRICULTURAL EXPORTS AND
IMPORTS.

The Seattle Telegraph makes the as
founding assertion that the importations
of agricultural products now equals and
will soon exceed the exports OF the same
What basis there was for the assertion
or what arguement from a Democratic
standpoint there was in it, is hard to dis
cover. According to the report OF the
treasury department the imports for the
first nine months of 1898 OF live animals,
meat and dairy products, eggs, barley
corn, oats, rye, wheat, -four and other
breadstutfs, seeds, vegetables, fruits and
nuts other than tropical, molasses, honey,
rice, hay, hops, hides, skins other than
furs, tobacco, flax, hemp. wool and cotton
amounted to 81. l23, ISL, while the ex.
ports of these articles was $3S7 $50 1881 ,
or more than five times as great. The
gross imports for the same period were
not two per cent less than for the same
period for 1892, but the falling off in the
exports was over $65 900 900 or more than
ten per cent, largely ii not wholly com.
posed of the articles enumerated, other
wise the proportions had been greater.
The object of this article is to show the
injustice which the tariff ntlicts upon the
majority of the producers OF the country
in compelling them to furnish the bulk OF
exports at prices obtainable in the mark
cts Of the world, and then compelling
them to buy what the must in this artii-
cial market. We are aware that tea, coffee
and sugar properly come under the head
OF agricultural products, and ii included
in this estimate would materially lessen
the difference between the totals stated,
but these three articles, with the except
ion Of small amount OF sugar, are not
products OF this country. and therefore
not entitled to comparison. The articles
enumerated above comprise the products
OF American agriculture.

A Parsou SURPRISED.

About four o'clock yesterday afternoon
several OF the Methodist ladies took a
notion to get up Il pound party surprise
on the parson and his good wife, and to
do it that evening. To think was to act,
and there was hurrying to and fro that
as many as possible might be notified.
BY half-past eight goodly number had
gathered and with bundles and packages
stormed the fort. Rev. and Mrs. Joslyn
were at the church, but the attacking
party aroused the young ladies from
their slumbers-or studies, and took pos
session OF the house. The young ladies
entertained the guests until the return of
the surprised father and mother. The
surprise was SO complete that for once the
ever-ready parson was non plussed.

The Canadian workmen are determined
to retaliate upon their American brothers.
There has been considerable fear eX-
pressed that if lumber and coal were adj
mitted free this part Of the country would
90 to the demnition-bow-w or to
Canada, but evidently there cannot be
much difference across the border, for
only last week representatives from Vic
tora petitioned the government to change
the alien laws, claiming that contractors
from the Sound frequently secured sub
contracts and employed workmen from
the Sound cities. They asked that these
workmen be barred, and the government
has promised to investigate the matter.
Ii this assertion be true, then high-tarift-
ties can cast their fears to the winds, for
surely if the American workman can go
away from home and compete with Can
adian labor, he most certainly can when
the circumstances are reversed and he is
at home and the other fellow is away and
must pay freight on his bully product.

Tuesday evening the Congregational
church was well filled with an appreclat-
i've audience during the rendition OF the
program which preceded the taiiy-pull.
Mrs. Clyde Wcatherwax was the first on
the program, and sang that charming
ballad. The Stepping Stones, and was
loudly applauded. The organ and violin
duet by Mrs. Thomas and Mr.. kaufman
received an encore. The recitation by
Miss McKinlay was characteristic repro
duction of Il backwoods New Hampshire
town meeting, and was well rendered.
Songs by Mrs. Elston, Mrs. Bell and the
take-off on the nan who prayed one
way and voted the other, by male quar-
tet, and recitations by Miss Renshaw and
Miss Arnold were all we'll received. TIE
program was closed by Prof. Campbell,
who brought down the house with When
the Frost is on the Pumpkin and the fod'
der's in the Shock, and responded to an
encore with The COLLINS.
All this time there came floating down
from somewhere the tempting odors OF
the preparing taffy, to the proper pulling
OF which the youngsters and some OF the
oldsters now gave their undivided atten-
ton, and the rest OF the audience whiled
away the time in social converse until
they could "come in at the finish and
help do up the tati'y.

The Port Blakely mill, in connection
with the Great Northern, will soon begin
rail shipment OF lumber to the east. a
reason assigned is the small profit on the
export trade. This interior trade Is Il
field that will bear cultivation. The ex-
port trade is entirely rough lumber, while
that OF the interior is largely dressed,
giving employment to many more in its
preparation. The Cosmopolis mill also
has all the orders in this line it can fill,
shipping three or four cars each day, and
if our mills would make an effort for it
they might do likewise. Ii the Blakely mill
can afford to tow across the sound oIrs
ought to he able to tow across the river
until the railroad can be built down this
side. This would add very largely to the
prosperity of Aberdeen.
