ABOUT OUR EXPORT TRADE

Washington. Feb. SIN spite OF
the fact that the members of Con-
gress from Kentucky, Tennessee, and
number of other southern states,
reinforced by delegations from New
England. fought valiantly for an APP.
preparation to permit of the refor-
esting of the Appalachian and White
mountain ranges, Speaker Cannon
has effectually blocked any chance OF
success at the present session. He
declared this week that he wohld al
low no appropriation to go through
for the work, for the reason that NO
survey of the lands has been made.
A substitute bill has been introduced
appropriating a sum sufficient to
make this survey. and the men be-
hind the measure hope it will get
through early in the session of the
Sixtieth congress. 1t is declared that
the need for reforesting is urgent, as
the watersheds of the two ranges are
imperiled.

PLEASE STEVENS
He Will Resign if Canal Job
Is Let
IL Is Probable That the Government
VIII Proceed Alone With the
Project.
EARLY DECISION HOPED FOR.

Washington, Feb. S.-The admin
istration has been brought face to
face with the alternative of rejecting
all bids for the construction of the
Panama canal by contract or losing
the services of Chief Engineer John
IF. Stevens. This is the reason for
the decay of President Roosevelt, Sec
rotary Taft and Chairman Shonts, OF
the canal commission, in acting on
the oliver bid. An effort has been
made to get MIR. Stevens to change
his mind, but he has continued obdu-
rate, and the indications are that the
administration will accede to his re-
quest and the construction will be
continued by the government.
This information in regard to the
position taken by Mr.. Stevens comes
from a source that cannot be doubted,
but It has created some surprise on
account of the testimony given by Mr.
Stevens before the senate COMMITTEES
on interoceanic canals, a year ago,
He then said that he favored build
|fng the canal by contract. He was OF
the opinion that contractors would
be in a better position to deal with
the question of laborers. Since then
he has gone over the canal plans care
fully, and he now expresses the be
lief that the canal can be constructed
by the government within a period OF
ten years. His friends have advised
him that II contract is let for con-
fstruction he will be robbed of the
credit of building this great water
way. Frequent exchanges of cable
grams between Washington and the
isthmus have resulted in a demand by
Mr.. Stevens for the acceptance of his
resignation If the contract is award
ed.
1t is asserted by certain senators
who have taken an unusual interest
in all matters relating to the canai,
that If one of the bids for canal con-
struction is accepted 1t Will mean
that the administration has deter
mined to dispense with MT. stevens as
the director of the canal construc-
tion.
Secretary Taft held a conference
today with the president regarding
the canal contract. The president
and secretary have before them the
completed bid of w. j. oliver and
his associates for the construction of
the canal Secretary Taft said that
he believed am early decision should
DO reached in justice to the people
who have their money tied up as Sc

Export Trade.

The export trade of the United
States is the subject of a report is
sued this week by the bureau Of
statistics. The report sets forth clear
ly tine wonderful strides made by
American manufacturers In introduce
ing American goods into foreign
markets. The exports of manufac-
tured products for the year just end
ed aggregated $4,000. 900 and form
ed Al per cent of the total exports.
Even in Great Britain and Germany,
two of the greatest manufacturing
countries in the world, the American
manufacturer has succeeded in estab-
fishing a trade. Products of Ameri-
can factories and mills to the value
of $133,457.953 were shipped to the
United Kingdom last year while
goods to the value of $55,632.220
went to Germany. This export trade
is receiving the recognition at the
hands of Congress that its import
ance warrants. II Is the greatest as
surance of a continuation OF pros
perity for its existence means steady
employment for American labor and
American capital. 1t is recognized
that this great growth in foreign
trade is due altogether to the consol-
idation of business interests in this
country. through which economies OF
production can be exercised, to the
end that the products of high-priced
American labor can be made as CHEAP
iy as those turned out by cheapeI
foreign labor In other words, what
the European manufacturer gains by
lower wages to employees. the Ameri
can manufacturer meets by a combi
nation OF efforts and a consequent
lowered cost of production. These
big combinations of capital, in a few
instances have been found guilty o.
violations OF the law. but the govern
ment has uneartned these violations
promptly and has punished the VIC
lators. Unfortunately. there hal

Mr. Joseph Banks, Decatur, III,
writes: 81 am in my 18th year, and

Vinol is not a patent medicine, but

oil has been eliminated and tonic

Vinol tones up the digestive or

A Game That Was Hard to Lose.

One of the best games of baseball
that has been witnessed in Shepherds.
town for good many days was played
here last Saturday between the home
team and a team from Brunswick.
While the visitors put up good game,
they really won out by luck, making
their two runs in the last inning, one
of which came in on an error. This
left the score 2 to l, and although
our boys tried hard to score in the
last half they failed to do so. Shop
herdstown got one run in the fourth,
in the sixth scored another on a
sacrifice to third, which was fumbled
and knocked foul. The umpire called
it fair, but Brunswick commended that
it was foul, and rather than have any
bad feeling the decision was reversed
and the score was not counted. Mus-
ser pitched good game for Shop
herdstown, allowing but 8 hite, and
for eight innings the visitors were re-
tired in one-two- three order without
scoring. Butler pitched for Bruins.
wick and was swatted for 9 hits. The
failure to win was, due to the fact that
the hits could not be punched when
needed most, and several times the
side was retired with the bases full.
1t just happened that Brunswick won
that game, but we believe it would
not happen SO again if our boys were
given an opportunity to play it over.
On Saturday Berryville will play
here. This will be the third game
with that team and s'each team has
won game it promises to be unus-
ally interesting. The manager has
gone to considerable expense in order
to get them to come here.fo the de-
Gliding game and it is hoped that a
good crowd will turn out to witness
it and give liberal financial support.
On Tuesday afternoon at the Nor
gan's Grove fair Brunswick will play
another game here. Our team will
be much strengthened and good game
is insured. :
