EXPORT TRADE.

The export trade for March shows a falling off, though no enc should see any reason for signs of discouragcmouJ herein. The export trade Of thc Unit ed States has been going at merry clip during the past two years. The excess of exports over imports was nearly $23, ,145, 698 for the month of April. While this balance is consider- able it Is the smallest in any month since July of 1S97
 The decline in the volume Of export trade is doubtless due to the ccntinu- ing advance in prices. The advances in the price of iron products have been unusual and have not yet ceased. The largest establishments are crowded with work, and, indeed, in single in stance an American institution has been compelled to place ar order ID Eng.2Hd. This was done because thers was no American institution capable Of turning cut the work in time The Federal Steel company has just an- nounced that it's entire capacity is GOV cred for the whole year, and it is known that a number of other large works are in similar position.

"A thousand United States troops discharged in Porto Rico, and wander ing about, the subjects of private charity, is perhaps the most startling instance of the bull-headed adminis- tration of the war department" Such is the language of one of the disrepu5- able partisan sheets that are looking everywhere for grounds of assault or the government. This wilful lie was written several days after it had been fully explained that the men stranded in Porto Rico chose to be paid in cash and discharged there instead of being brought back to this country in gov ernment transports. They are victims of their own improvidence, having spent their money in riotous living, and are apparently worthy allies of yellow journalism

THE SAME TICKET.
No Doubt of McKiniey's Denomination
 and 5obart's a Natural Sequence.

There are indications that the repub-
 licans in 1900 will renominate their
 ticket Of 1896. This course, for many
 reasons, would be eminently proper. | There is nc doubt, CT seems 9. the
 present time to be none, that President
 Mckinley will l'e nominated next year.
 Vice President Hobart's selection ought 10 be equally probable if his health and disposition interpose no obstacle It was the custom in the early days Of the government to give vice presi- dents as well as presidents two terms. John Adams was twice chosen to the vice presidency. So were George Clin- ten, Daniel D. Tompkins and John (.
 Calhoun. This was before the days of
 national delegate conventions, how
 ever. which came into vogue in 1832.
 In 1S40 the democrats or most of
 them. voted for Richard H. Johnson for vice president. He WIS elected On
 the Van Buren ticket in 1886, and was beaten with Van Buren in 1840. Hen dricl05 ran on the Tilden ticket in 1876, when the ticket was beaten. The failure to renominate that ticket in 1880 has been considered by intel.i- gent dem Ocrars ever since to have been q N1Slake. HenQrlckS was put on the Cleveland ticket in 1884, and it was generally believed by both parties that Ee gave that ticket strength
 The republican party thus far nas net given it's vice presidents or vice presidential candidates 2 second nom inaticn. The party has some times suffered as a consequence. The reDub-
 ican party made a very serious blum der in net renOminating Hamlin in 1864. From the consequences Of that blunder the party and the country sui fered for many years. With the able, vel balanced, and popular Hamlin in the presidential chair after Lincoln's death, the Wrangle between president and party which occurred when John son went to the White House would not have taken place, reconstruction would have occurred earlier, the un- fortunate disorder and extravagances would have been lessened, and the breach between the sections would nave been bridged sooner.
 Every consideration of prudence and propriety seems tc point to the renOm- nation of G3rret A. Hobart No vice president whom the country has had in the past half century has won more friends among intelligent men of both parties than the present official. 4 re- nomination would be a mark Of apDro- citation which would be an encourage nent to other vice presidents to win in an equal degree the regard of their party and the cOuntry.-Leslie' Week 1 Iy.

INGERsoLL AS A BOY
Told His Father He Didn't Want to
 Go to Heaven"

Ashtabula. Ohio. is noted for two things. It was the scene nearly a quarter of a century ago of enc of the most frightful railway wrecks in the history of the world, a disaster in which, among others, P. p Bliss. the singing evangelist, and his wife were burned to death
 Ashtabula's ether claim to fame is founded cn the fact that over fifty years ago Colonel Robert G. Ingersoli lived there with his father, who was a Presbyterian minister.
 Rev. John IngersOlI was Of the straitest sect. His sons did not take the broad path, as SC. many sons of such fathers have done; but one of them, Robert. became eventually the foremost freethinker of America. Bob was born in Dresden N. Y. and he was 8 years old when his father went to Asht2bula to i've. The church build ing in which the father preached ana Robert went to service and to Sunday school will soon be torn down It has stood in the center of the city for sixty years. Robert at that .time was Crahamite, or vegetarian. not because he wanted to be. but because his fdth- CT made him foregO the fleshly food. of which the son ate freely so soon as Ee got away from the parental home. Had Robert continued the ascetic diet all his life he might present Q different appearance now.
 Old Ashtabu1a people remember when i.e who is q p3-t!y, dignifipd gen. t.eman now went around the town baref0oted, as boys were wont to do in the sumner in small towns. Roberts mother died when he was young ani he was left to the tender merc:es of the stTictcst Of fathers Little Bob was like many ether boys. in that lta was inclined to be rather miscaievous when his Sunday school teacher put the old questions to him that so many boys have heard.

The elections of the year 1899 are 10 be few in number. The only states that choose governors and state otfi- cers to go with them are Iowa, Ken lucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mis- sissippi and Ohio. The result in ali these, except Maryland and Ohio, may be easily anticipated with correctness. Kentucky is expected to supplant her present republican governor by a dem ocratic one There is to be a strenu- GUS contest in Maryland between the parties. It is difficult to say what may be in Ohio, in view of the republican factions there, and the development of Mayer Jones of Toledo.

PEACE TALK, WAR PRACTICE.

How absurd it is to call the present meeting at The Hague a disarmament
 conference, whatever else it may be,
 is shown by the fact that not one of the nations sending delegates to par 1 ticipate in the show of international amenities is CT has been doing a single thing to prove the sincerity of any pre- 1 tended sympathy with the purpose Of
 the convention called by the czar. The
 two really great empires of the world,
 Russia and Great Britain, each Of which is ostentatiousiy prominent in
 The Hague meeting, could by their
 own amicab.e understanding, coalition
 and pronouncement, without the aid
 of any ether powers, forever insure the
 peace of the world. Such 2 coalition
 would be irresistible. But do they sin
 cerely want it? We must judge by
 their acts and not by the diplomatic
 ver5iage of their representatives. Au-
 thorities on military and naval mat
 ters declare that England on the com
 pietiOn of the ships now under con
 structiOn for her navy will be in a po-
 siticn to meet the combined navies of
 any two powers of the world It is
 also said that England has under con
 struction and to be completed in the
 next three years vessels that alone
 will be more than equal to the total
 German navy as it will stand at the
 snd of 1903. This English fleet now under construction will exceed the en- tire American navy, built and building And how about Russia? Not So much is known outside the domain of the czar about his activities as about those of less secretive nations, but 1t is m open secret that he is adding constant ly to his already enormous armament, and that work on his great trans-Si- berian railroad which will enable him best to cope with England by pouring troops into China, the probable battle l ground Of history's greatest conflict, is | being rushed with feverish activity. | Japan must be reckoned in that con | fict, and she will have a navy when | her present program of construction is completed that will outc,ass any fleet | that call De put III eastern WaLerS | by any power except England. Thus stands the contrast between actual | conditions and the solemn talk now | going on in the Netherlands city. It ! Is plain that nothing can be expected of the conference toward hastening the lawn of peace, except as it shall create 3 deeper sentiment for international comity among the different civilized peoples of the world, though nor among their rulers who are moved by and greed too deep for peace ul eradication. Of all the suggestions made at The Hague meeting, that of he American delegates for arbitration seems the most practical and promis- ng, though there is much philosophy n the remark Of a European delegate hat on vital questions nations will not -rbitrate while Cn minor matters they Ire already unanimous for diplomatic Disarmament will never ome War will never cease until the latiCns learn that war with it's blood he'd and crushing debts does not pay, IT until there is a powerful coalition f peace loving nations, backed by can l lons and swords, to enforce order mCng tho powers.

5 ALTERS STATEMENT.
He Says He Kept Only What He
Was Entitled To.

v Constable Henry Alter was yesterday
seen by a Record Union reporter re-
garding published statement to the
effect that Groceryman John Dierssen
intended to swear out a warrant charg
ing him with embezzlement
According to the published account,
man named N. Dean had secured a
sum aggregating $45O from Dierssen,
representing that with the money he
had closed a deal with a man named
Quiggie, who owed Dierssen money, for
his ranch. Dierssen learned that Dean
was in Seattle, and Dierssen sent Alter
after him, allowing $75 for expenses.
The article referred to stated that
Alter worked a bluff on Dean with
some unsigned requisition papers and
induced him to pay over S115 and $40
for expenses, and that in settling with
Dierssen he made no reference to the
$40 received as expense money.
Alter says there is absolutely no
truth in the latter part of the state
ment. He said that he had told Diers-
sen that he believed he could make the
trip to Seattle at an expense of $50
and that the latter had scratched
around and got $40.
Alter said he took the money with
the understanding that if the expense
bill reached a higher figure Dierssen
was to stand it. He says that as a
matter of fact his expenses reached
SSS.oU, or Sl3.JO more than Dierssen
had advanced to him; that he collected
from Dean S1o5; that he turned over
TO Dierssen S126, receiving a receipt
for the same; that he retained S13.5
the amount of his expenses over the
SO advanced by Dierssen. and that he
deducted his commission, 10 per cent,
or S15, and that the latter sum is every
cent he received for his services.
