According to the decision Of Judges
Hsnford and Gilbert, In the Hght on the
Northern Pacific receivership, BrHyton
Ives has won the first knockdown. Ives
has plan Of his own for recognising
this great railroad company. The plan
10 based on . provision in the eleventh
article Of the first mortgage deed Of trust
requiring that oil proceeds OF land sales
shall be applied to the redemption Of the
first mortgage bonds at ITO and accrued
interest. Now Mr.. Ives proceeds on the
theory that, inasmuch as under this arti-
Gle all the first mortgage bonds, and, -
the same provision 10 also found In the
second and third mortgages, all the bonds
under them can be paid of out Of the
proceeds of land sales, all that 10 neces.
ssry for making the paying off Of all the
bonds under the three mortgages practi-
cable 10 to make the lands yield sufficient
money to do 1t. He estimates the
amount required at $75, 900. 900, and feels
confident that under his scheme this vast
sum can be readily provided for by .
simple method.
A corporation is to be formed for the
purpose of buying ali the lands to which
the company is entitled under its grant
for $75, 0O0, 600 in cash, under q contract,
however, binding the new corporation to
resell the bonds to the reorganized North
ern Pacific company for q corresponding
amount of new per cent bonds, uni.
formly secured by one mortgage on all
the property of the company. By this
double operation the fixed charges under
the present three prior mortgages tor in.
terest and sinking funds payments would
be reduced over q, 900 900 annually, and
the arrears OF interest on the second and
third mortgage bonds wiped out. and
thus the company would be placed in
position to deal easily with it's creditors
and thus carry through the reorganiza-
tion with but small, II any, assessments
Of the two classes OF stock.

WHEAT AND FLOUR SHIPMENTS.

The rapid increase In wheat and -four
exports from the Pacific northwest indi-
Gates o grLwth in the production Of that
cereal that 10 not generally appreciated
and may form q factor in basing an es-
mate upon the present season'e crop,
says the West Coast Trade. The years
lS94-95 was not considered q record
breaker in the matter Of wheat produc-
ton. but the shipments from the Column
bis river and Puget sound combined
make remarkable showing, the increase
in foreign shipments being confined,
however, to the former, though taking
into consideration the immense coast
wise shipments from Tacoma, the amount
Of wheat handled here was largely In
excess of any previous season. During
1S94-95 there were exported from both
Columbia river and Puget sound $780,
923 centals of wheat and S35, 4l6 barrels
Of -four, or an equivalent Of something
like $4,000, 900 bushels of wheat, as
against total Of 5.550,9l5 centais OF
wheat and 522,52S barrels of -four for
1884, an increase spproximating con-
siderabIy above 5000, 900 bushels. The
combined exports for 1928 were 6. 642,-
$50 centals Of wheat and 492,476 barrels
of -four; 1922, $751; centals Of
wheat and 3l6.066 barrels of -four, and
1890-91, 5,2sl $3.50 centals Of wheat and
$50, 1892 barrels Of -four. With the ex-
ception Of the present year the wheat ex-
ports are not Of q marked character, but
-four shipping has had q steady and sat
isfactory increase, especially from Ia
coma, the total growing from 1881 in
1S90-91 to 257 ,8lS barrels in 1S94-95, and
the Columbia river from 366,81l to ST.
1888 during the same time. With the
clearing of the Dudhope, last week, the
Puget sound wheat exports for lsS4-95
reached 2,275,57s centals.

BIsMAROK,s EIGHTY YEARS.

or all the years awarded to the
great statesman, whose birthday is
being celebrated with an enthusiasm
to which there is no parallel, those
noting the last Ie or 90 of his work
are undoubtedly the most glorious.
That the impulse and aspiration to-
ward national union was bound to
be successful, was conclusion par
taking of the inevitable long before
Bismarck was known outside the
Fatherland. They were founded on
the simple fact that life, progress,
order and respect were simply i'm
possible under the Congress Of
Vienna. Bismarck only displayed
ordinary sagaeity in that he recog-
nized the value of the inevitable. His
craftsmanship commenced in the con-
ception of the war with Austria; it
was really aided by the Incompetent
sible act of Napoleon III. in precipi-
tating wal without cause or justifi-
cation.
The logic of that war was the re-
establishment of the empire under
modern constitutional conditions;
the construction of the parliamentary
apparatus involving universal suf-
frage and a complete federal organ
ization might easily have been Grip
pied, postponed, or made altogether
impossible, if it had not been for the
one thing which characterized the
statesman's wolk in the term speci-
fed up to the close of his official
labors. That one thing was the pre-
servation of peace. Almost every
year from 1872 to 1889 the war
clouds were gathering portentiously
over the old world, and that their
fury did not burst forth in scenes of
devastation and suffering is largely
due to the genius of the man today
honored by the worlds congratula-
tions. Bismarck's contemptuous rele-
CATION of the Turkish question TO its
proper limits; the reconcilement Of
conflicting interests in Africa, and
opening up the Dark Continent to
the benign influences of civilization,
and above all the creation and main
tenance of the Triple Alliance are
achievements largely due to bis
broadminded activity. Europe is to-
day more in a state of permanent
adjustment and equilibrium than it
has been for centuries, and this
fact for the preservation of peace
is as much the credit or glory of the
Iron Chancellor as anything else he
has helped to accomplish in his
heightened life.

Why the editor Of the Statesman
should call US venerable" because
We wrote few words, showing the
prosperity Of our town, and at least
the possibility of the B. & O. divi,
sion and full work in the shops here,
being renewed, is beyond our expla-
nation. Venerable" though we
may be, we are for our people al
ways. What is the matter with the
Statesman "the only Democratic pa
per in the county 2" If you send
out word that business is gone and
the people starving, what will be the
result? neither capital or workman
will touch you. You know that or
should know it. We may have our
share of dull times, but are getting
along well, our town is improving
and there is more business done to
the square inch in Martinsburg, even
on a cash basis, than in any OF our
neighborlng towns. We are stick
ing by our people and our home. If
the Statesman is sick send the editor
to bed or to a more congenial eli.
mate.

HICKS FOR APRIL.-April promises
to open cool and fair generally.
About the End and 3rd it will turn
very warm and numerous storms
will develop, after which a dash OF
cool polar air will be felt. Unless
the moons pedigree on the 9Th is a
more potent storm breeder than full
moon, the greatest disturbance dur
ing the period, 7th to 18th, will cen
ter on the 9th. Heavy April show
ers and storms will be natural at this
time. A cool wave with frosts in
northerly directions need not sur
prise In the rear of the storms.
About the 18th and 10Th reactionary
changes will take place, and the mer-
curry equinox, central on the Goth
will help to usher in a period of
cloudiness, storm and rain that will
likely continue with little abatement
until after the new moon on the oath.
The opposition of Saturn on the 23d
will disturb many days. The heav-
lest storms are apt to occur from the
22nd to oath. If it is quite warm
with south winds and low barometer
which facts are most likely-dan-
gerous storms are probable. A
sharp change to cooler will result
about the oath to 25th, and there
will be danger of frosts for two or
three nights following. The 9th to
28th will bring change to warmer,
with much tendency to storminess
and general shower. April prom
ises to close fair and cool.

planted the mother tree, of which the
othcris a limb wreuched while loaded
with fruit from the parent stock
during King George lis reign, in
l748, and was therefore 141 years old
when it was cut down in 1889-90,
and its life from the seed must be
nearly $50 years.
The present tree, the daughter
tree, $50 called,is limb of the moth
er trunk and was broken off 10 the
September gale of 1915, and which,
from an elbow thrust into the moist,
rich soil, took root and became indie
pendent. F. NJ. Perry, of Canaan
daigua, N. Y, famous nurselyman
and pomologist, pronounced the fruit
of these trees the finest of the green
ing family, and procured hundreds
of scions from the stock to introduce
into New York and the Middle
States.
The past year the younger tree
bore about ten bushels of the finest
quality of apples, and bids fair to
breast the storms of many winter
yet to come.
