THE time seems ripe when the west
should demand, and demand in no un-
certain tones, that it receive its share OF
appropriations for internal improve
ments. The river and harbor bill OF
the congress just ended carried $40, OOO,-
600 for such improvements, $3S, 900, 0Oo
of which was to be expended in the
east and 1900, 900 in the west. Does
this seem fair division of the peoples
money? AS Senator Warren and Sen
ator Carter said in the senate in the
discussion of this bill, the west pays its
share of taxes and its should receive its
share of benefits. 1t should receive, to
be used for storage reservoirs on the
headwaters of navigabIe rivers, its share
of the vast sums spent annually in the
eastern United States for the widening
and dredging of rivers and improv
ment of harbors.

One Of the leading Democratic news

suit of improved trade conditions. In
the iron, steel and allied industries
300. 900 workmen have had their wages
raised from 10 to 25 per cent. New
England mill operatives to the number
of lao, 600 have been benefited by SIM

ports that in mincellaneous industries
over 2OO, 900 wage earners are affected
by the increase. 1t might be added

Parsnip Complexion.

1t does not require an expert to detect
the sufferer from kidney trouble. The
hollow cheeks, the sunken eyes, the dark
puffy circles under the eyes, the sallow
parsnip-colored complexion indicates it..
A physician would ask if you had
rheumatism, dull pain or ache in the
back or over the hips, tomach trouble,
desire to urinate often, or burning or
scalding in passing it; if after passing
there is an unsatisfied feeling as lift must
be at once repeated, or the urine has a
brick dust deposit or strong odOr.
When these symptoms are present, no
time should be lost in removing the cause
Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh of the
bladder, inflammation, causing stOppage,
and sometimes requiring the drawing OF
the urine with instruments, or may run
into Bright's Disease, the most dangerous
stage of kidney trouble.
DR., Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great
discovery of the eminent kidney and blad-
der specialist, is positive remedy for
such disease. Its reputation is world
wide and it is so easy to get at any drug
store that no one need suffer any length
of time for want Of it.
However, if you prefer to first test its
wonderful merits, mention The ISLAND
Err and write to DR.. Kilmer Il Co.. Bing--
hamton, n. Y, for sample bottle and
book telling all about it, both sent abso-
lutely free by mail.

A CORRESPONDENT of the London
saturday Review" writing from New
York, says: "The idea that seems to
still prevail in England that the policy
of this country is going to be affected
in matters of business, by sentiments OF
kinship, religion, or anything else, is a
mistake. In business the American is
for self first, last and all the time. And
all the American cares for or thinks OF
is business. For sentiment he has nc
use, unless to let the other man deceive
himself with it. At the present mo
ment preparations are being made in
this country to invade every market
with American goods, and it is quite
certain that no sentimental considera-
ton of kinship or anything else is go
ing to stand in the way. If England
chooses to keep open doors for Ameri'
can goods to be run in through, he
services will be accepted; but if anyone
thinks this country is going to hole
doors open for others goods, they make
a huge mistake.

OUR AGRICULrUR EXPLOITS.

According to comprehensive report
Just prepared by Frank II. Hitchcock
chief of the section of foreign markets
of the agricultural department, the
total value of domestic exports in 1895
reached the enormous sum of 81 no.
29l,913, exceeding the record-breaking
figures of the preceding year by Sl7o,-
2S4.3IO. On the other hand, the inn
ports in 1898 were the smallest since
1885. their value being $616, O49, 654, a
decline of $14S, $50, 1853 from the figures
of 1897. Broadly stated, for every
dollars worth of foreign merchandise
brought into the United States two
dollars worth of products found mar
ket abroad. Domestic exports as COM
pared with imports showed an excess
of 1854, 242 $50, or more than twice the
excess for 1897, which was the largest
previously reported.
An interesting fact developed by the
report of Mr. Hitchcock is the increase
in the exports of agricultural products,
being 1898 per cent of the total, or
$S5S,5O7, 942, gain of nearly 25 per
cent over 1897. Exports of this class
also show a greater gain proportionate-
ly than agricultural exports. Pur-
chases of foreign agricultural products
i'm 1898 amounted to only 1914, 29l, 796,
no oomnarod with S4OO S71 46S i'm 1897.
a decrease of SS6,576,672, or about %
per cent.
The value of the American farm pro-
duce sent abroad in 1898 was much more
than double that of the agricultural
imports, the excess of the former over
the latter amounting to $544, PIG, 146.
In 1897 the excess on the side of the
agricultural exports was only $685.
1888, 725, and in the years Immediately
preceding still smaller.

DUNN & Co.'s latest weekly trade
review says that failures In April were
the smallest i'll any month since records
by months began, 38 per cent smaller
than in April of last year, not a third
of the amount in 1897 and not half the
amount of April of any previous year.
Both in manufacturing and in trading
they were the smallest ever known in

ever known in any month, as in manu-
