Trade of the Week satisfactory, with

The trade of the week. although hardly

In the week ending April %. Grocers were
quite busy; still, there is room for inn
proyement. In most lines the retail mer-
chants are pursuing the hand-to-mouth
policy Of buying goods. Travelling sales
men on Friday and Saturday brought in
good orders. and speak more encouragingly
OF the outlook. Prices on most articles
through the week were steady. Sugars
were off, but recovered the decline in a day
or two after. Other staple groceries are
firm. The seed market is more active and
prices easier but unchanged. Provisions
ruled steady through the week with a fair
demand. Druggists report trade improving;
paints and oils in better demand. Hard
The Hour market is active at unchanged
prices. On Commission row prices were I'M
settled most of the time. There. was such
a d~lfference In quality of articles offered
in the way of new tomatoes, strawberries,
cucumDers, new potatoes and like vege-
tables that it was difficult TO make quota
tons, and from this on lower prices will
doubtless rule, unless for very choice stock.
A good orange is difficult to find. Lemons
are piSnly ana cheap. Inc same Is true OF

Il expected to die, and have no doubt
but for the aid of DIR. Greene's Nervura

been in my grave. By the advice of a
druggist, l began taking the Nervura

pains left Inc, and my nerves seemed to
be greatly strengthened.

and soon my hands stopped trembling
and l was able to go to work. To day

his praise of this wonderful medicine,
for it has saved his life. Think of it

The Tariff in The Senate.

The contest in the Senate over the
tariff bill will, it is expected, be a fierce
one. The prediction is made that the
tariff bill will not be finally acted upon
by the Senate and receive the concur
renee of the House of Representatives
much if any time in advance of June
The probability is that the tariff bill
will be in the hands of the finance com
mittee of the Senate at least a month
AS the republicans will insist on given
hearings to those opposed to the
measure, a lumber of republican Sena
tors, notably those who opposed the
repeal of the Sherman law, will vote to
keep the income tax on the tariff bill
but will vote against the whole meas
ure on its final passage.
On Friday the tariff bill was laid be-
fore the Senate and referred to the
finance committee.

Hope for the Senate.

AS the Wilson Tariff Bill passed the
House of Representatives on last Thurs.
day by vote of 204 to 40, a much
larger majority than was anticipated
by its advocates, it furnishes ground
to hope that it will not meet the diff
Guilty of passage in the Senate, which
has been SO generally appreherded.-
The Democrats should be united in its
support, for if they wait for tariff bill
which will please all the Democrats in
all respects, they will wait till the
"Greek Kalends," for such has never
been the case, and will never be. 1t is
infinitely better than the present Nc
Kinley Tariff, and should receive the
support of every Democrat in prefer
ence to that, for that is really the is
sue, for if the Wilson Bill shall be de-
deated, the present Tariff will remain
in force. There can be no justifable
reason why any Democrat should, in
the final vote, cast his vote against the
Wilson Bill.

Game LAWS.

Mr.. Polk Miller. the president of the
Virginia Field Sports association, has
been, and is now, working hard to get
the present legislature to pass a bill
for the better protection of game in
Virginia.
The evidence that game in this State
is being rapidly exterminated is noun
tain high, and it is evident to every.
body outside of the legislature that
unless some legislative action is taken
to prevent the further advance of the
war of determination the time when
game and cunning will be no more in
Virginia is near at hand. "Local-op
tion," that is, piecemeal laws applying
to a county here and there will not do
A general law applying to the entire
State is what Mr.. Miller wants and
what the situation demands. The leg
islature should not hesitate to pass
such a law.-D0nUille Register.
Such law as that suggested would
be wise. Birds especially should be
protected, for they are essential to the
protection of both grain and fruit
crops against the depreciation of in
sects. We repeat what we have Otter
said, and which cannot be repeated toe
often, that, if there were no birds il
this country for the space Of ten years
no crops of either grain or fruit could
be successfully raised. This is truth
that should be impressed on the public
mind,

Assistant Bishop John b. Newton.

The Episcopal Council of the Diocese
of Virginia, in Richmond last Wednes-
day, Jan. 31st, elected Rev. John B.
Newton, Rector of the Monumental
Church in Richmond, Assistant to
Bishop Francis NJ. Whittle.
Rev. DIR. John B. Newton was born
in 1910 in Westmoreland county at the
old family homestead, and is the son
of Hon. Willoughby Newton, who was
mcmber of the Virginia Legislature,
and afterwards member of Congress.
His mother was Miss Brockenbrough,
daughter of Judge Brockenbrough,
formerly of the Supreme Court of APP
peals. A rather unusual coincidence
is the fact that DR.. Newton was mar
ried in Monumental church. DR.. New
ton graduated with the degree of M.
D. at the Medical College of Virginia
when quite young, and soon afterwards
entered the service of the Confederate
army under General A. +. Hill as as
sistant surgeon. He was subsequently
made surgeon, in which capacity he
served throughout the war. After the
surrender he practiced medicine in
Westmoreland county for several years.
and then decided to prepare for the
clergy. His first parish was at Tappa-
hammock, in Essex county, which he
took charge of on the day he was or
dained, From Tappahannock he went
to St. Luke's church, in Norfolk, where
he served eight years with satisfaction
to the entire congregation, which re-
luctantly gave up their beloved rector
when he assumed charge of Monu-
mental church, in Richmond, nine years
ago.
During his connection with Monu-
mental church DR.. Newton has made
many warm friends and has won the
highest esteem and affection of the en-
tire congregation and of the commune
ty by his earnest work, kindly, sympa,
thetic disposition, high ability as a
preacher, and conservation and devo-
ton to the cause of Christ.

Chamber of Commerce. Progressive
Work.

The SPECTATOR greets the Chamber
of Commerce in all it's advancing work.
Byreference to the proceedings of that
body at it's meeting on the 9Th instant,
it will be observed that it is moving
forward on right lines. Perfecting and
adapting it's own machinery for con-
tinued and growing usefulness, the
public will soon realize its capabilities.
Steadfast and increasing in effort, the
accomplishment of it's aims, whether of
single or associated counsels. will only
be question of time-all such being
grounded in right and guided by pro-
priety.
The proceedings referred to, which
appear in another column of the SPEC
TATOR, open out to view that immi-
grafton, the most valuable of that
kind of accommodating resources, is still
a a living question which may be
wonderfully worked up in aid of our
general prosperity.
New transportation lines are inter
ests of great concern, and sooner or
later will play an important part in
the future of the general prosperity in
the Valley of Virginia. The Chamber
proposes to look after THESE new inter-
ests.
The great longitudinal line, the Nor
folk g. Western Railroad, in its Shen-
andoah division, holds most important
relations to the future of Staunton and
Augusta county commerce. The
Washington city branch from Front
Royal to the Federal metropolis will
soon be reality. A few miles of
a connecting branch will place Staun-
ton in solid relations to this chief
artery of trade and travel. The COM
mittee created at the last meeting OF
the Chamber will doubtless investigate
these matters. The Lynchburg and
Durham, the Roanoke and Southern,
and the branch from Pulaski, Va, to
Mt. Airy, North Carolina, now in the
course of construction, open wide i'm
mense fields for marketing our bread
stuffs and hay-products.
These are fruitful subjects and will
bear frequent reference to them.

NOn-InteryentiOn.

Non-intervention is the wise policy
of this country, and, as the New York
Herald well and truthfully says, inter
ference with tt e domestic affairs of any
foreign nation is contrary to the ira
ditional policy of the United States
and against it's highest interests. Strict
adherence to this principle is essential
to keep us free from foreign entangle-
ments and to enable us to concede to
every friendly Power the right which
we claim for ourselves to manage our
public affairs in our own way and
without outside molestation or inter-
ference.
This policy we must now pursue
toward Hawaii, and we should lose no
time in telling the people of that coun-
try so. Whether. the monarchy is to
be restored or the provisional govern
ment made permanent is for them to
determine That is their business, not
ours. When this government offered
it's friendly offices to bring about resto-
ration by mutual consent of the parties
interested it did the utmost that
national honor and international
justice could require to right the
wrong done through abuse of the
authority and force of the United
States at the time of the revolution
When this offer was declined by the
deposed Queen the United States had
done it's whole duty in the matter and
non-intervention became imperative.
AS for annexation or pro'ectorate,
either is as objectional and contrary to
our traditional policy as Intervention
would be. This country has never
gone into the business of anneXing
distant islands, and should not begin
now. We have enough responsibilities
already without hurdening ourselves
with additional ones that are wholly
uncalled for For the same reasons we
do not want to assume any protecto-
rate. In short, our plain and only
course now is to let Hawaii alone, and
Congress should proclaim at once that
the United States will not have annex
alton or assume protectorate, and
does not propose to interfere in the af-
fairs of the islands.
The sooner this policy is officially
announced the better it will be for the
peace of Hawaii and the good name of
the United States.
