creased profits, although the risks
were abnormal. The Dutch shipping
companies have been making enor-
nous profits, while the Dutch ship
building yards are SO crowded with
work that orders can only be placed
for very; distant deliveries.
It may be noted incidentally that
the considerable rise in the prices OF
American industrial securities was
one of the principal factors that aid
ed in a rapid liquidation Of the mass
Of stock loan transactions that had
to be compulsorlly suspended when
the war crisis broke out, as the Dutch
public took advantage Of this rise to
realize a large quantity OF their
American holdings and obtain the
ready money they needed.
There is, however, another side to
the medal, for the feverlsh activity IN
some economic departments Ia more
than offset for the nation as a whole
by the big rise In the cost Of living
and the burden Of the mobilization
costs. The war loan Of some $115,-
0OO, 900 has long since been eaten
up, and at the end Of the year the
floating debt of the treasury had
again grown to S54.00O,O00, so that
another big loan seems inevitable In
the coming spring, while large taxa
ton increases are ready before Par
lament.
The export Of cut and rough dia-
monds to the United States amounted
in the first three quarters Of the year
to 13,780,000 forms or $~5,745.S0O,
against 12,7S1,O00 forms or $685.
400. The demand for rough dia-
monds, which was small In the be-
ginning Of the year, increased con.
siderably, especially in the third
quarter Of the year, while prices re-
NAMED firm. Amsterdam merchants
have been establishing more represen-

MEDICINE

Preparation Causing Comment

Tanlac. the medicine causing so
much favorable comment in all eco
lions OF the state, since it's introdue-
ton in the larger cities, is now TO
be introduced here through Farrep's
Drug Store and II might be said that
where Tanlac enters sickness and
disease leave, and though this Is not
literally true, yet the thousands OF
testimonials from people all over
West Virginia prove the new medt-
cine is a factor In the gradual reduc-
ton noticeable in the health reports
Of cities and towns where Tanlac has
already been introduced.
People who have suffered for years
with stomach, kidney and liver
troubles have acclaimed Taplac, a
great remedy. People who really did
not know what allied them and suffer-
cd from Indigestion. dragging pains

called on him that he would do all
he could toward enabling them to
become chaplains and stretcher bear
ers.
Over a thousand curates, who in
lay life would be eligible for mill
tary service, signed a petition to the
bishop, asking that they be allowed
to put on khaki and fight. They
claimed that the defense Of a cause
that they devoutly believed to be
righteous against one they thought
evil was in accord with teachings Of
Christianity and the Anglican church.
All Of the Anglican bishops, In
GLIDING the archbishop of Canter-
bury, have been opposed from the
start to the enlistment OF the clergy
in the fighting ranks. But the feel
ing Of the mass Of young clergymen
is strongly inclined toward military
service. Many clergymen of the nom
conformits sects, such as Presbyter-
ians. Congregationalists and Method
lists, have gone into the ranks and ac
cepted commissions.

FAR MORE GOLD
IN NETHERLANDS
NOW THAN EVER
That is One Curious Effect Of
the Great European.
Military Struggle.

AMSTERDAM. Netherlands, Feb.
Mot the least curious Of the
many strange incidental effects pro-
duced by the war is the fact that the
small country of the Netherlands
probably contains more gold today
than e before in its history. In
the last year, for instance, a con-
tinual steady inflow Of gold from the
European continent and oversee has
doubled the stocks Of the Neither
lands bank, and with Hollands for
eign exchanges continuing their ever
downward course there Is no saying
what figure they may not reach II the
war lasts much longer and is still
kept out of her borders.
With long queues standing daily at
the banks doors, the government at
the outbreak Of the war had to re-
duce the compulsory gold covering
the banks callable liabilities from
forty to twenty per cent; those LA
bilities of $40, 900, 900 forms or
$258,33S,0O are now covered to the
extent Of sixty-nine per cent the
gold stocks amounting to 430,OOO,O0O
forms or $179,166,000. On the 9th
err hand a review of the year Just
closed shows that the banknote cir
culation has been a record one, reach
ing the figure of SIC, 100000 forms
on November 2, last, or $240,291,O00.
other evidence Of the favorable
factors which the war has brought
with it for Holland is found in the
new years speech of the chairman of
the Amsterdam Chamber Of Com
merce. in which he shows that a num-
her of business and industries have
been able to make considerably in

When one stops to consider that IN

can nominee for a state office was 49,

impossibility hat confronts a Republl-
can candidate, in the course of the next
four months to get in touch with all OF
the members of his own party, either
by letter or meeting them personally.
1t would be a pleasure to me to write
and have the opportunity of meeting
every Republican in the state and have

order that / may have the privilege and

will become offended because Of not re-
ceiving a personal letter, but, on the
other hand, Ihope to receive the benefit
Of the hearty support and active CO.

dacy. | want to assure one and all that

1t is needless forme to say that | have
been a Republican all my life and am
proud Of the fact that in the past | have
had the pleasure and opportunity OF
speaking and participating in every
campaign since 1881, fighting for the
cause and for the principles Of the Re

Ny only platform is Republican prin-

""ot this fund $222S66114 was expended in construction and main

Since the complaint has been made in certain quarters about an alleged
increase of cost of state government in West Virginia, it may be interesting
to note in connection with this comparison that in other states also the ex
pendtures today exceed those of a few years ago. Let us look at Connec-
tcuts experience along that line. Here is q table showing amounts expended
for certain purposes in 1910 and the corresponding figures for 1915:
