The exports OF the fiscal year Just
ended are the most satisfactory and re-
markable of any year in the history Of
the country not excepting 1898. They
were the largest of the year with the
exception of 1898, in which conditions
were unusual by reason of the fact that
the whole world except the United
States was in that year short of bread
stuffs, while our own supply was unu-
sually large. The total exports of 1899
were Sl,229, 433, ,425 against 81, ,29l ,4S2, ;.
$50 last year, the loss therefore being
$4,O2s,9O. A gratifying feature in the
exports of the year is the tribute which
they pay to American labor. That the
exports of 1898, with the abnormal for.
eign demand for breadstuffs, continued
with an unusually large production at
home should have given the highest
record to our large trade Is not surpris-
ing, but that with only normal foreign
demand in 1899 we should have come
within 100000 of this mark, shows
that other industries other than agricul.
ture have also prospered and contribu.
uted largely to the export figures of the
year. The expectation of manufactures
for 1899 exceeds by about $45, ,OOO, ,OO(
those of 1898, which were themselves
record makers.

There is trouble in the Highland
county Democracy over the delegates to
the State convention. Ditty and Sloane
are for Col. Kilbourne and pledged him
the delegation long ago. No trouble ex-
listed until John R Mclean concluded
he would like to be Governor of Ohio.
Then R. T. Hough seemed to have sud.
denly developed a strong attachment
fol the man who it was claimed threw
him down for the Gubernatorial nomi-
nation. Ditty and Sloane are aware OF
Hough's position but say that the delega.
ton will be solid for Kilbourne and if
Hough gets on he will have to pledge
himself to vote that way. 1t looks now
like Dittey and Sloane would make their
word good, but Hough's strength is
hard to estimate and only the convention
will show where he stands.

Now the Democrats of Highland coun-
ty have troubles of their own. For
years past they have had nothing to do
but comment on Republican differences.
The Hillsboro Ring has it's hands full
in attempting to push through its al
ready prepared slate for the county con-
vention, and the intention of Sloane and
Ditty to relegate Hon. R. T. Hough to
the rear by selecting Kilbourne dele.
CATION to the State convention is also
causing bad feeling.

The latest Democratic hope to be an.
nounced is Dewey. Now Dewey is a
name beyond doubt to conjure with for
he has only to ask anything he wants of
the American people to get it. But
there are one or two things about Ad.
miral Dewey very annoying to the Dem.
ocrats. Dewey is a staunch sound mon.
ey Republican and he has explicitly
stated that he would not accept the nom.
ination for President. Then Dewey has
way of always meaning just what he
says. so that as whole, the chances Of
getting him to run on discredited re-
pudiation platform are not considered
the best in the world.

under proper construction of the law,
only the part referring to the Treasurer
can be published as a legal advertise
ment. That would amount to about
s35 which is the sum paid semi.a nnu.
ally for this report. That does not mat
ter, however, as it was published in this
paper without pay, and in that way the
law as to Republican paper was com.
piled with. Then the Tri- County News,
another Republican paper, and the
Greenfield Journal published it without
expectation of pay. By the Journal
publication the law as to Democrat
paper was fulfilled. All three of these
publications were before or on the same
date as in the Gazette and Dispatch,
the two papers to whom Judge Hughes
gave the report as legal notice, and for
which the county is expected to pay
about $4OO, from $3.50 to 5000 each.
Where is the economy of this proceed
ing? The law had already been more
than complied with. The NEWS HERALD,
Journal and Tri Dounty News published
simply as matter of news for their
subscribers. Under no claim of right
could the advertisement exceed $40
in both papers, and this was saved by
the free publication referred to. This is
a clear waste of about $40O of the pub
lies money by Judge Hughes order.
Add this $4O0 to the Investigators charge
of $3.50 and you have $3.50 spent for a
report nearly similar to the one made
by A. q. : Blair, of West Union. Has
the Gazette and Dispatch been active in
urging the investigators on simply to sc.
cure this $40O, or is Judge Hughes pay.
ing political debts " ith the taxpayers
money? No wonder these two papers
wanted the report drawn out. If ii
could have been kept up until fall, no
doubt, their fee might have been

From political stand point the in
vestigators report should be welcomed
by all Republicans as it shows that their
organization does not contain the only
names that have large amounts oppo.
site their names, and that the political
capital sought to be made last fall was
untrue and malicious and can never be
made again. The attempt to involve
Republican leaders alone failed and the
people now know the truth. Both par.
ties and all factions are now involved
in the over charges.

Probate Judges Office to have that part
incorporated in the report. In this way
he hoped to destroy the only formidable

pain arising from my kidneys. 1t
frequently passed up the spinal col

Toe kidney secretions were very un-
healthy and extremely dark and of a
bad color. l took treatment from

pills and other kidney medicines.

than any and all treatment combined,
and heartily commend their use to
