We have, then, said Mr.. E., no right TO expect,

1912, then. would be Sl92 200. 000-sav. the
largest amount, and from all sources s20.00n000.

! He hoped the expenditures could be brought down
to $4,000, 600, and he would make a very serious
effort 10 reduce them to thi. amount. Gentlemen
mad said here that it wa. disgraceful that the
try should be so poorly defended as it was. 1t
was obvious that the disgrace must continue, or
that expenditures should be made, and money pro-
vided
If these calculations were right it was obvious.

would be required. This amour, of means mus;
ba supplied, either in this way in some other
wav. The amount OF both were necessary. FOR

This was not for expenses, this year. but for the
payment of old demands. New treaties might be
ratified, also, which were now in the process of ex
ccuon, and this would require an expenditure of
money He only hoped 10 bring the expenditures
down to S23,000000, but feared this coHls not be
done
How this would affect the public debt was a
matter of inquiry With some. The long and short
of our presen, indebtedness was, that we had ex
pended more than we had received cor the SER
vices of 1871 and 1912 the debt would be incrca-
sed about ten millions income has fallen
short of our receipts about 100000 in those
years, and for three or four yenrs past VIC had
expended mere than had received. The pub
lie deb. az the end Of this year would be about
Sl7, 600 000-perhaps little more-and it mi ght
be SIG 900 600. The amount Of Treasury notes
proposed and the amount of the loan would cover
this sum--being s7,000,000 for an old debt, and
81 900 900 for th: year.
Gentlemen had said take back the lands to
meet the deficit in the Treasury. His answer WAS:
They DO not NEE, the deficit, and he did not
look thcI cfore 20 this for revenue. Ano-
Their reason was, that he did not propose to inter
fere with solemn act Of Congress which had
Appropriated the receipts from land to another
purpose.
One thing more. said Mr.. f. in conclusion
We mast either cease TO make appropriations or
put manev into the Treasury-one thing or the
other necessary. 1t became US as legislators.
as citizens and as patriots, what the country
demanded and to meet those demands. The cos
dition Of the country such that nigh, not be
very difficult TO obtain the balance OF the lean.-
The evil however, was such that ne were required
10 pass the bill to meet the immediate and press
ing demands upon the Treasury, and he hoped the
Senators would allow the bill to go throug b with
the leas, possible delay.
