Smalley, edi tor of the Northwest Ma***ine. reached this eity today from his bom* in St. Paul, on a pleasure and observation trip of some thru* weeks' duration. Mr Smslley Is ac- j . < >mj»aj|>d by hia wife, sixi they are guests 1 of the Tacoma hotel, Leaving St Paul two week j; ago, Mr. Bms Hey and hi* wife 1 have traveled over the Northern Pacific j through the West by ea*y stages, making frequent stops and enjoying themselves as they well know boa to do. Editor bmaii-.y is known all over the 1 country, and particularly in the middle ] West and the Northwest as a close ob server and an interesting and able writer. Anything h« would say regarding the ap pearunce* oi the country traversed oy him on hts pUßent trip and his views on j the future derctopment of th< Northwest j therefore has a peculiar Interest a'td ( value. From IS2 until year before last j Mr. Smalk-y regwlarfy made ar. annual i tour of the Northwmt for purposes of ob servation, what be saw and learned natu rally being of value tw htm In his work Last year h« was one .Us to follow bis usual custom, being well occupied, he said, with tb< preiiflential campaign. Practically two years having elapsed since ' his last visit to the Nott!. Pacific coast, h*. bas been able to see the growth and de velopment which have taken place in the interval, to better advantage perhaps than a resident of Washington. "We spent a day in Spokane, another at Surutyside. and yesterday at Yakima." said Mr Smalley to the Post-Intelligencer correspondent this sfi«*mooti "Of course. Spokane }s lively now. as >ou know, hav i-S a wsli-deveioped mining boom to en gage her attentions, in the Sunnyslde country I noticed that there had been no litti® growth and progress It s»-*ms to me thai there are more Seople making a living un<ler tbe Schuitxe iiu h than wh« u 2 Was out there last. In a drive through the country adjaieiu to the town of Yak -Ims. I observed a great many new places —bouse* that I had not seen before, and new orchards that hsve been plsnted since my last visit to the Coast.

"I do not look forward to any large im migration movement/ westward-af least lor some little time yet. People will not emigrate, though they might do so to ad vantage. as Jong as I hey are unable to dispose of their property at anything like a fair price.

The country is undergoing a slow recovery from a bed complaint—ex cessive speculation. The talk of hard times is largely due to rocoltatlons of the boom days, when you could go out on the street and make a hundred or a thousand dollars in a day and not earn ft.

IW l2.we.Cflg May !•«? !».«<*.<*• May 1m li.WO.OM February, i>«s 3S.ntt' <*© May, its* »,m m Several reasons are given for the present gold export movement, of which reasons The heavy importation# to take advantage of the proposed new tariff law are regard el as th»> weightiest. Today's customs receipts amounted to t2.2T5.475. as compared with for April 30, last year. For the present month the customs receipts aggregate as compared with $11.915.H1 for April. The duties paid. of course, constitute only a fraction of the cost of the growls im ported. for which settlement* must be made in cold. The money spent by American tourists abroad, which has been estimated as high as $150,006,000 a year, is another factor in the problem. The demand for foreign bills on this account has begun already, and Li destined to continue for some weeks. Another factor is the heavy purchases of goli on Austrian and Japanese account. During the first ten days in the present month the Bank of England lost about $5,000,600 to Japan and Austria-Hungary. The apprehension of a general conflict among the powers, growing out of the war between Turkey and Greece, and the rei-nt decision of the supreme court against railroad traffic combinations, it is thought, also may have been contributory causes to the present necessity of shipping gold abroad. Whatever the cause, no alarm is felt as to the outcome. The present stock of gold in the treasury, $1&.354.63 H. Is regarded as ample to meet any emergency without in the least im pairing our credit abroad. Tht- (iold Reserve. WASHINGTON, Apr.l 30 —Tf day's stato. ment of the condition of the treasury shows: Available cash balance, $231,133,684; gold reserve, $153.354.ti*8. ARMY PROMOTIONS.

This widely praised and widely prized remedy really does make people well. It is as far removed, in the minds of judi cious men and women, from all other remedies purporting to accomplish equal results, as the North is from the South. Clear-headed professional men. business men and the great body of hard working brain workers all over the country believe heartily, and with good reason, in Paine's cel<a-y compound.

Phelps. M. D.. LL. D. Nothing will pull a tired-out, nervous, "run-down" man or woman out of the quagmire of sinking health so promptly and firmly as Paine's celery compound. 90 DOZEN Straw Hats.
