Our Decreasing Exports.


lit is true, as Mr.. Mckinley has so
long contended, that decreasing i'm
ports indicate increasing possibilities
of comfort and happiness for Ameri-
can labor, then American labor ought
to be very happy and comfortable in
deed just now.
Last year was one of low imports,
yet they are still falling at a remark
able rate. The merchandise imports
at the port of New York last week
were nearly 1900, 600 below those of
the corresponding week in 1896. For
the first three weeks of January this
year we have 1927, 9s5, 600 imports,
against $42, 81 900 for the correspond
ing three weeks last year.
This heavy loss indicates for the
whole country an average importation
this year well below the low average
of only $15, 900, 900 week last year.
The figures (Which include all imports
except gold and silver show in the
most unmistakable way that Ameri-
can manufacturers are driving foreign
competition out of this market by
giving the public.the benefit of reduc-
ito ms in duties made by the Wilson
bill.
Nothing could be more distasteful
to monopoly than the compulsion I'M
der which it is obliged to compete for
public favor on the merits of its pro-
ducts. Hence the tariff is to be Ding
leyized and all this is to be stopped as
soon as possible en-. Y. World.

winter cold, New Mexico is rapidly be-
coming famous. Averaging through
out the entire territory $500 feet in
altitude above sea-level, and charac-
terized by dry air which, unlike a
humid atmosphere, is incapable of
communicating heat, the temperature
In midsummer remains at delight
fully comfortable degree through the
day, and at night becomes invariably
brisk and bracing. The sunshine is
almost constant, yet the most violent
out-of-door exertion may be undertake

quences. Sunstroke or prostration
are absolutely unknown there. 1t is
an ideal land for a summer outing.
Its climate is prescribed by reputable
physicians as specific for pulmonary
complaints, and the medicinal Hot
Springs at Las Vegas are noted for
their curative virtues. The most
sumptuous hotel in the west, the
Montezuma, is located at these springs.

Hale and Hearty

Is the condition in which every human
being was undoubtedly intended to be,
and whenever this is not the case
there must be something wrong.
Probably in majority of cases the
trouble is in the blood, which has be-
come impoverished or impure by rea-
son of hereditary scrofula taints or
from some other cause. In case there
is scrofula in the blood there will fire.
quently be eruptions of the skin though
sometimes the disease assumes a diff
ferent form. In fact, very large
proportion of diseases are caused by
this inherited faint. That the cause
Is in the blood is proved by the fact
that scrofula, salt rheum, rheumatism,
catarrh and other like diseases are
most readily cured by purifying the
blood. No medicine has such record
of cures as Hoods Sarsaparilla and it
is always advertised as blood purifier.
The way to keep hale and hearty is to
keep the blood pure, and if it is not in
a condition of purity and vitality
there is no better remedy that can be
used than this same great blood puri-
fer and strength builder, Hoods Sar-
saparilla.

STATE HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY.
Doctor Hopkins Paper Stirs Them Up.


CHARLESTON, Jan. 26.--The an
nual meeting of the State Horticul-
tural Society held in this to-day
was busy and important one. A
dozen papers and addresses were
presented and fully discussed. Ina
paper by Hon. Alex. Clohan, of Mar
tinsburg, the interesting fact was
revealed that peach orchard near
Romney, of less than one acre net
ted 81 800 the past year.
The experience of Prof. Corbett,
Charles Becker and others pointed
to the same explanation for decay Of
budded peach trees, and to the i'm
portance of propagating by root
grating and the selection and i'm
provement of seedlings.
DIR. Hopkins paper on the San
Jose scale resulted in the adoption
of the following:
Resolved, That it is the sense of
this society that Congress should
enact such laws as would tend to
prevent the distribution of the San
Jose scale and other dangerous pests
through interstate commerce, and
that states should enact such uni
form supplementary laws as will
eradicate the pest where it has al
ready become established.
In the election of officers Prof.
Corbett was reelected Secretary.
The society adjourned to meet in
Martinsburg October, 1897.

THE TIMEKEEPER STOOD In.
Accused Of Certifying to Railroad work
Never Performed.

PARKERsBURG, W. Va, Jan. 3d.
Henry Coffman, for several years time
keeper on the Ohio River Railroad for
the firemen, engineers and shop hands
is in trouble. Two days ago he resign
ed and left Immediately for the west.
In the meantime the railroad people
had been suspicious and had him ar
rested in Kenova, w. Va, and brought
back.
He is badly in debt, and several
merchants have attached his property
forshiHs. The charge made. by the
railroad people is that Coffman has
been working in collision with trains
men and shopmen for their mutual
benefit. The workmen were credited
with much money they did not earn,
and this they divided with the time
keeper. The full extent of the opera
tions is not known yet, but they have
been large. Five trainmen and four
shopmen have been dismissed, and
more are to follow. Coffman is men,
Der of good family, and his relatives
have the sympathy of the community.

An Old Settler,

When the rheumatism first pre-
empts certain tracts of your anatomy
itmay be ousted easily, but when it
becomes an old settler it is pretty
hard to bulge. Remember this when
you experience the first twinges of
this obstinate and agonizing disease,
and attack 1t with Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters. 1t will then "make
tracks" and possibly leave you unmo-
Tested and in peaceable possession of
your own comfort in the future. Peril
always attends rheumatism, If it be-
come chronic, on account Of its ten
dency to attack the heart. Usually it
is that the kidneys, when aroused by
the Bitters, will eliminate impurities
which give rise to rheumatism and
dropsy. In inclement or wet weather
the Bitters, taken in advance. will
often avert rheumatic trouble. Use
this genial family medicine for dys-
pepsia, biliousness, headache and con-
stipation.

GEN. CRAIGHILL TO RETIRE.
His Eminent Services to the Govern
ment.-He Reflects Credit ON West
Virginia, the State Of His Birth.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-General
w. II. Craighill, chief of engineers
of the United States Army, who will
retire from the active service ON Sat
urday, is native of that part OF
the Old Dominion which is now EN-
braced as West Virginia, having
been born in Charlestown, Jefferson
county, July L, 1888.
He entered the military academy
from the state, then Virginia, July
|, lS49, his 10th birthday. He had
for his classmates Generals Sheri-
dan, Scofield, Mcpherson, Smith and
Vincent on the Union side, and Gen
erals Hood, Chambliss and Walker,
of the Confederate army. General
Craighill graduated tours years af-
ter he entered college as number
two of his class, was appointed a
second lieutenant of the corps of en-
gineers, and afterwards passed sue
cesslvely and with credit through
the intermediate grades to briga
dier general and chief of engineers,
his last promotion being received at
the hands of President Cleveland,
May 10, 1895.
General Craighill has reflected
honor upon his name and upon the
state of his birth by conspicuous
integrity and efficiency, and as well
by his bravery in action, having
been twice promoted during the war
for meritorious service. He has
been twice to Europe on official bus
mess and is the only officer of the
army who ever became president of
the American society of civil engi-
neers. The choice of a successor to
General Craighill is to lie between
Colonel Henry NJ. Roberts, ex-engi-
neer commissioner of the District of
Columbia, and Colonel John M.
Wilson, present superintendent of
public buildings and grounds in
the city.

Help the University aud make 1t worthy
of this Great State.
State Journal.

West Virginia now has eight state
institutions Of learning to provide
for, each one pleading poverty and
begging for aid at every session of the
Legislature, and new bills to create
two more are pending. They will
both probably be adopted because they
are needless and expensive.
There are five Normal schools in the
state each demanding and receiving
an appropriation at every session,
when there is hardly room for one
good one in the whole state. The
catalogues and statistics Of the schools
themselves prove that they are merely
local institutions with limited useful
ness. One normal school in the state,
could possibly, be made success. As
it is there are five failures.
The University which should be
source of pride to every West Vir-
ginian, and whose appeals to the legis-
lature should be most cheerfully and
literally responded to is always treat
ed shabblly in the matter of appropri-
ations. Instead of setting apart to
the uses of the University such sums
as are needed for its purposes the leg
islature bestows its pittances grudg-
ingly, and as if the body feared the
school would become too flourishing.
But on the other hand the legislature
rushes into petty cxtravagances the
total of which would, If given to the
University, swell its treasury to gen.
erous proportions, and permit it to be-
come far more thorough and useful
school than it has ever been. Not
long ago little University for cent,
so-called preparatory school, or an
mex to the University was ordered
built at Montgomery in Fayette coun-
ty. There is already Colored Insti-
tute in Kanawha county, and a bill in
the legislature to build another state
school at Bluefield and a more recent
measure has been introduced to erect
another state school in Greenbrier
county,
1t is time to call a halt, and to leg
islate for the State of West Virginia,
instead of for some particular town.

Catarrh CanuOt be Cured

with local applications, as they can
not reach the seat of the disease. Ca
tarrh is blood or constitutional dis
ease, and in order to cure it you must
take internal remedies. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is taken internally, and
acts directly OF the blood and mucous
surfaces. Halls Catarrh Cure is not
a quack medicine. 1t was prescribed
by one of the best physicians in this
country for years, and is regular pre-
scription. 1t is composed of the best
tonics known, combined with the
best blood purifiers, acting directly on
the mucous surfaces. The perfect
combination of the two ingredients is
what produces such wonderful results
in curing Catarrh. Send for testimo-

The reverend clergy, the college pro-

all Others who are decidedly friendly
to England are bringing all their pow
er to bear on the United States senate
to have the arbitration treaty ratified
without delay. But many senators
are opposed to haste in the matter and
insist that the treaty must be thor
oughly Investigated in the light of all
possibilities under it. In this matter
the senate will have its way, and to
certain extent it occupies the stronger
ground. As one of the important
treaties of modern times it should re-
ceive the most careful and patient
consideration If provisions in it are
Objectionable to American interests
they should be modified. This can be
done without sacrificing the great
principles involved. Directors hold
that it initiates against the Monroe
doctrine and American control over
the Nicaragua canal, when it shall be
built. These are certainly questions
of sufficient Importance to warrant ex-
haustive examination Of what is prob
ably under the treaty. If possible
there should be action before the 4th
of March, for if it goes over to the ex-
ira session it may go over until next
winter.

Exposure to Disease

Does not necessarily mean the con-
tracing of disease provided the sys-
TEN is in vigorous condition, with
the blood pure and ali the organs in
healthy action. When in such con-
diticn contagion is readily resisted and
the disease germs can find no lodg-
ment. Hoods Sarsaparilla is the best
medicine to build up the system be-
cause it makes pure, rich blood, and
pure blood is the basis of good health.
In cold weather it is especially neces-
sary to keep up the health tone be-
cause the body is subject to greater
exposure and more liable to disease.
Hoods Sarsaparlla is the safeguard
to health.

ROhhpry

We hope, in the interest of consist
ency, that our Republican friends will
now quit shouting for ''free ballot
and fair count" Every one has
known that their professions on that
subject were the merest hypocrisy, but
the unblushing theft of Senator Shat
fer's seat shows that they are willing
to go to any length and ignore every
form of law and decency to secure an
Office to which Democrat has been
legally and honestly elected. Senator
Shaffer received certificates of cleo
tion from Republican commissioners,
no contest was thought of by his Re-
publican competitor, no notice was
ever served and no form of law was
ever observed, and his legal election
was conceded by every one, including
his opponent. But when the Legisla-
ture assembled, the Republican man.
ayers concluded that it was desirable
to have his place for Senatorial cleo
tion two years hence, and the party
decision went forth that he must be
unseated to strengthen the Republic

without trial, testimony or legal pro-
ceedings. Might makes right was the
doctrine, and as the Republicans
could muster the necessary votes he
was promptly expelled from the SEN
ate and his seat given to another who
had no sort of claim or right to it, and
had not even made contest for it as
provided by law. 1t is to the credit
Of the Republican party that at least
three Republican Senators rcvolted at
such high handed proceedings, but the
will of the managers was all powerful
and the outrage went through. But
it will return to vex the people who
committed 1t. The next house OF del
egates will be Democratic, and il the
precedent established by the Republi-
can senate in this case is not invoked
to even up the loss OF Senator Skaters
vote, we will miss our guess. In the
meantime let the people remember
that Republicans never steal politi-
cal Office except when they have ia
yorable opportunity.

Congressman Dolliver, of the 10th
Iowa District, has big tent which
he purchased. OF a stranded circus COM
pany and now utilities in his cam
paigns. Last October, while making
the round Of his district, Mr.. Dolliver
reached town where it was too cold
for an audience in the tent, and an
adjournment was had TO great gro
Gerry store house, which was able to
accommodate numbers Of political
truth seekers. In one corner there
was a big barrel of sauerkraut, and
near this great old fashioned stove
of the kind that will roar like an ele-
plant when the draft slide is pulled
clear back.
With a great fire the crowd began
to feel comfortable, and quickly en-
Unused under the eloquence of the
Fort Dodge orator. Everybody SEEM
ed to be unmindful of the sauerkraut
barrel, and lost in the beautiful pic
lures of returning prosperity with the
election of Major Mckinley and the
assurance of honest dollars and chan
ces to earn them. But in the midst
of one of Mr.. Delivers eloquent flights
his attention was distracted by an
Irishman who said he rose to point
of order.
''The gentleman may state it, Z"
quoth Mr.. Dolliver.
''Oi move you, sor," said he, ''that
a committee be appointed to place a
horse blanket on that barrel of sauer-
kraut."
The barrel had warmed with the
growth Of the fire, and an odor that
was anything but agreeable in polit-
ical atmosphere was forcing itself up
the nostrils of the faithful. The horse
blanket was secured from neighhor's
stable and applied to the use designa-
ted, after which Mr.. Dolliver proceed

rupted.
