Our Magnificent Trade Showing.

The change in the national admins
tration and the uncertainty as to the
Democratic programme may show a
tendency to slow down business trans
actions, yet the latest official figures OF
trade do not tend to make any one feel
disheartened. Our foreign trade has
been surpassed only once in our his
tory for the past seven months. The
showing is truly brilliant one, and it
could never have been made il our
domestic trade were not corresponding
" brisk
In January OF the current year our
trade balance showed all excess OF cx-
ports of $2ooooooo over the same
month i'll 1908, which held the record.
And when il is considered that the
imports for seven months gone BY in
the current fiscal year totaled a billion
dollars, the large excess of exports
may be taken as a sound trade index
Neither the Balkan war, nor the
never ceasirg restlessness in Central
America, nor the Mexican situation,
nor tariff bugaboos can overshadow
a trade showing like this.

Right and Wrong.

rum the Ohio State Journal
There is a difference between right
and wrong. but it is getting friGhtfully
blurred these days. The Bible distinc-
tion between God and mammon has be
come so poorly defined that people
don't see 1t. They even go from one
side 10 the other with an air OF indif-
ference, SO that what is really bad
often assumes much respecta bility. So
here is where Billy Sunday comes in.
We may not like the jagged ends of
his phraseology altogether, but there is
one thing Certain-he is making the
distinction between right and wrong
very clear. He may call right heaven.
and wrong hell. and denounce those
who choose the latter. and seem to
judge others in spite of the Gospel.
Still tho main fact. the impressive fact,
is that the great Truth of religion
which recognizes a pure. righteous no
hi" life as distinct from vile, low
wicked life. he is insisting upon with
vehcmence that IS impressinc the
people. He may attack the preachers
and the churches. but if he gets his
thousands of hearers to take up purer
and decentcr lives, he will be forgiven
for that.

The Last Weeks Work of Congress.

Al noon next Tuesday the session ot
the Sixty-sccond Congress will end
and there is a great deal OF work still
to be done TO get the regular appro-
priation bills through for the hscal
wear beginning next July l. OF course,
any leftover bills could be passed by
the new Congress in special session,
which is to be called for the REVISION
of the tariff. but it will be more cred
table to the present Congress II it
leaves a clean slate.
In one respect this session has not
made a satisfactory record in view OF
the professions OF economy that have
been made BY the party in control of
the House. where all revenue legis-
lation must originate. In nearly every
department of the government cN-
pcnse, have been increased, and all
former fgurcs have been surpassed in
The total Of appropriations provided for
in bills still pending.
We have already had occasion to
speak OF the tremendous sun1-SISo,-
ooo.Ooo-to be expended in one year
for pensions almost hall century after
tho civil war. which has to account for
the bulk OF this unwarrantabIy big
amount The naval budget also i, be-
yond all precedent, and it is fight
over a further increase which threatens
the defeat OF the entire appropriation by
filibu,tcring. Not that the Republicans
show any especial resentment over the
desire 10 increase and improve our
naval dcicnse>. Just the reverse. Only
they laugh in their sleeves over the It
markablc methods Of the Democrats
10 Ou,t them from the national control
by bitterly complaining OF their profit
gacy and extravaganza, and then to
go them one better" instead of insti-
tuting their much-heralded policy OF
economy.
Peculiarly eNaSpcrating extravaganza
was displayed by the House in the bills
providing for public buildings and
river and harbor Improvements, and
vet the Senate keeps adding to them,
1t is not likely that they will receive
the Presidents approval

ROCHESTER, N. Y.
BY GEORGE FITCH,
Author of "At Good Old Siwash."

Rochester is a town of 225.000 people
hidden away between Buffalo and New
York City, on the New York Central
of the Genesee River. which at this
point descends over 200 feet in three
daring leaps, and which provided horse
power for the -four mills Of New York
State when the steam engine was still
in its feeble and spluttery infancy.
Rochester is divided into six seq
ments like a cherry pie, by the Genesse
River, the Erie Canal. and the four
track New York Central. The Genessee
elbows its way through the business
part and compels the Erie Canal to
cross it on n high stone viaduct. Hardy
mariners regard Rochester with terror,
and always equip themselves with
parachutes while their canal boats are
crossing on this dizzy edifice.
Rochester prides itself on having
1.79S factories, most of which are
equipped with smoke consumers. 1t
makes more cameras than any other
city and produces train loads of shoes,
-four, carriages. and nursery stock
each month. Rochester factories stand
in grassy parks and have landscape
gardeners. The result is so ornamen-
tai that Rochester may soon place fac
tories along its boulevards in order to
improve the residence district.
Rochester has a university. theo-
logical seminary and less politics than
any other New York city. 1t will be
one of the sations on the new Erie
Canal and will some day be a seaport
on Lake Ontario, having already ad-
Yanced to within few miles OF the
