NO CAUSE FOR ALARM.
Trade With Russia, Germany and
Austria Maintained

The alarms which have been sounded
during the past two years regarding the
trade relations between the United States
and certain other countries of the world
find no justification in the figures of our
commerce up to this time. The three coun-
tries which have been mentioned from
time to time as likely to decrease their i'm
portations from the United States are
Russia Austria Hungary and Germany. a
study of the latest figures of the treasury
bureau of statistics regarding our imports
and exports shows a steady growth in the
trade relations with all these countries,
and indicates that our commerce with each
of them is likely to be larger in the pres
ent fiscal year than in any previous year
in the history of our commerce. This is
true both of the imports and exports. To
each of these three countries our exports
are steadily and rapidly increasing, and
from each of them our imports are also
steadily and rapidly increasing.
This is especially marked in the figures
of our trade relations with Russia in the
present fiscal year. The latest figures of
the bureau of statistics are for the nine
months ending with March They show
that our exports to Russia in that period
were nearly double those of the CORE
spending period in any year of the last
decade, and that our imports from Russia
are also steadily and rapidly increasing,
being double those of 1889 and three times
those of 1894.
The following table shows our commerce
with Russia. iaHungary and Ger

aroused in the students, and the rivalry be-
tween the companies has faded into in
significance in comparison with that be-

is which school will win. The girl students

Tonopah Ore Shipments,

Fourteen carloads of ore were
shipped from ronopah during the
past. seven days. Two carloads
about % toas-is the usual daily
shipment.
Interested parties say there are
eighty million dollars worth of ore
blocked ont in the Mizpah mine alone.
The skeptic asks, " Why don't they
take tout? II it was iudiciously in-
vested the owners would derive big
revenue from it. Under ground it
is of no value to anybody"
The Company is shipping 20 to 30
tons daily, with probably POO names
on the payroll. Outside of the main
company there are about 200 men
employed. Few, if any, of the out
side mines are extracting a pound Of
ore. These 400 workers support a
population of nearly 5000 people,
To a man up a tree it looks as if
no mine in Tonopah (not excepting
the Mizpah) has paid expenses for
the past six months, newspaper hot
air to the contrary Notwithstanding.

WATER METERS.

The St. Adams Messenger states the
water problem Of the railroad city in
the following words:
"The same wise principle of bust
ness involved in the use of water
meter as in the use of gas meters or
electric light meters-the consumer
pays for what he gets and no more,
no less, and consequently the tendency
is to restrict waste because it is ex.
pensive. The water problem in st.
Adams is not how to acquire a suffi-
cient supply in storage, because ma
ture and man have combined to pro-
vide abundantly for that, but rather
how to husband the water when it is
once stored up so that there will al
ways be enough even in time of
drought. The normal use of water in
this little city cannot account for the
disappearance of the great volume
held in storage in the two reservoirs.
That volume was enough for all ordi-
nary uses for months even If not an.
other droI of rain fell in that time.
The present shortage must be caused
by waste and improper use. Meters
will check waste.
Almost every word that the Messen-
ger says will apply just as well to
Montpelier and the Journal heartily
commends it to the attention of Mont
pelier voters. The officials of this city
have always been troubled by the
abuse by water users of the privileges
which city water has given them.
No matter how alert and capable the
members of the force employed by the
water department. may be, tile water
wasted in a day amounts tc very
large percentage of the whole amount
used, especially in the summer seasoA.
1t will cost some money to install
meters, but before Montpelier has
many more experiences such as those
of this winter and of few summers
ago meters will come.
