1t is to be hoped that the press of
the country will present united front
in demanding a complete investiga
ton of the criminal neglect our own
gallant boys in blue, sick and well,
have been suffering ever since the war
began. This unpatriotic and ungodly
venality and inertness has permeated
not only the war department at
Washington but every branch OF the
commissary department on the field.
Our present army is SO thoroughly
debilitated that it could not with
stand another shock equalling in force
that of the Spanish war.
1t has been the boast of northern
Republicans, and we glory in it's truth
that this war has wiped out heremain-
ing bitterness of the south coincident
to the defeat of the Rebellion. Are
northern Republicans as mag
unanimous? We have enemies at home
ten times more fatal to our army
than was the Spanish foe, and under
infinite obligations to uphold our
common cause Shall We unitedly
demand retribution, removal and
reform?

'sTwelfth Night. "
STEPHEN DUREN, P;

River Falls has the name Of be-
ING a poor ''show town. This
report is entirely erroneous, as
was demonstrated by the atten-
dance at the Janet Waldorf enter.
tainment Thursday evening. As
the TIMES has always said, the
people of this city are ready to
patronize the theatre when con-
WINGED that the theatre is worthy
their patronage. Acting upon
this assurance they packed the hall
to overlooking when the Janet
Waldorf Theatre Co., made it's
second appearance in the city IN
Shakespeare's comedy, "Twelfth
Night" Miss Waldorf is playing
a role second only perhaps to Mar
lowe, Modjeska or Anderson, yet
recognized wherever she appears as
new and rising star in theatre
cal art, whose dramatic cleverness
is not borrowed, but possessed.
Hers is that which comes of
natural endowment she plays as
one in love with her theme. She
has bright future, and is fast
rcaping that distinction so much
s. 1ght, but is SO rarely attained,
that Of world wide favorite.
Miss Waldorf is not without
adequate support. VIM. McVay
as Sir Toby Belch, Allan Dunn as
Sir Andrew, Norval McGregor as
Malyolio and Miss Ellen Boyer as
Olivia were highly proficient in
their chosen profession. The
company was aided at this
place by some of our best local
talent. Miss Anna Dodge as
Maria an attendent of Olivia
played very difficult role. and
she was heartily appreciated by
the audience. The local support
did splendidly. The work of
Morgan, Purves, ApRoberts and
others showed a careful prepare
ton and was highly appreciated
by our people.

EXPORT AND IMPORT FIGURES
statistics SHOWING the Condition of
Americas Trade with Other
Countries of the World.

WASHINGTON, July 31.-The Bureau of
Statistics in its monthly summary of
Finance and Commerce presents the de-
tails of the imports and exports in the fiscal
year ending June 80, 1898. 1t shows that
the exports to all parts of the world In
creased both in manufactures and products
of agriculture, and that while there was a
great falling off in imports the reduction
was almost exclusively in manufactured ar
ticles and food products. Manufactured ar
ticles ready for consumption fell from $l34,-
375, 126 in 1897 and $145, PA, O39 in 1896 to
$50, $40, 6S7 in 1898; articles of food and live
animals fell from SPAS, 1876, 1877 in 1897 and
S237, 025, O45 in 1896 to $1S1, 4SO, oil in 1898.
while articles of voluntary use, luXuries,
etc." fell from $50, 09S, $40 in 1897 and S93,-
1923, 154 in 1896 to SIT, 452, 561 in 1898. On
the other hand, articles required by the
manufacturers and classified as ARTICLES in
a crude condition for use in manufacturing"
of which the 1897 imports were $214, 916, 62a
and those of 1896 $209, 1868, III, amounted in
1898 to $204 $40, 919, forming in 1895 over SO
per cent of the total importations, while In
1897 they were but rs per cent and in 1896
81 per cent of the total imports. showing a
large relative increase in the proportion
which these articles used in the domestic
liuuSlIleS DOIe W inc lOldl lllpOEldIlOHS.
Manufactured articles for use in the me-
chanical arts formed in 1898 about the
same percentage of the imports that they
did in 1896 and 1897. The expectations of
manufactures, which amounted to $2SS, ST.
449 in 1898, exceeded those of 1897 by SILL
$50, 05S and those of 1896 by $50, 300, 271,
while the products of agriculture exported
amounted to SS54,547, 929 in 1898, against
$6S3, All, 1871 in 1897 and $685., $40, 297 in 1896,
the chief increase in agricultural exporta-
tons being in breadstuffs.
The expectations of the year increased
$3.50, 1886, 494 and the importations of the year
decreased $14S, 725, 253, the comparison being
made in each case with the preceding fiscal
year of 1897.
The following table shows the total ex-
ports and imports by the grand divisions in
the fiscal year 1898, compared with the pre-
ceding year:

Rain in

GENEVA, 1Neb, July 31.-(Special.) IA
slight rain is falling this morning. A good
soaker is badly needed.
GOTHENBURG, Neb., July 31.-(Special.)
Last night it commenced to rain here
about 10 O'Clock and continued for more
thai an hour, about So of an inch having
fallen. This rain will make a great deal
of early corn in this vicinity and as there
is a great deal Of alfalfa hay and an abun-
dance of rough feed the country is well pre-
pared to feed out a great deal of stock. AL
falfa and prairie hay can be bought at So
per ton in the stack, which should be quite
an inducement to feeders. The farmers
have just completed harvesting the largest
wheat crop ever raised in this vicinity.
While a great deal of the acreage will make
from twenty-five to thirty bushels, W. think
that the entire crop will average sixteen
bushels to the acre.
