Mr.. Ellis H. Roberts has undertaken the task
of breaking the force of Mr.. Dawes's recent
speech on the condition and prospects of the
United States Treasury, and OH tho ex-
travagance which has made an income
of nearly three hundred million dollars
hardly adequate to make both ends meet
We proceed, without further preface, to ex-
amino somewhat critically Mr.. Roberts's osti-
mate of the revenue and expenditure for the
remainder of the fiscal year. In December
last we criticised Secretary Richardson's
estimates of the receipts from GUS
toms for the last nine months Of the
fiscal year. finding them much larger
than an officer occupying his responsible sta
ton was justified in counting on. A few days
after Mr. Richardson changed his views. and,
in his letter to the Committee of Ways and
Means, rushed into the opposite extreme.
becoming as Respondent as the week before
he had been sanguine. Mr.. Richardson's esti-
mate for the period In question. as on record in
his official report, is Sill 100000. Our estimate
in December was $100.0000O0. Mr.. Ellis ii.
Roberts's estimate on Monday last is $4,000
600 al tho lowest. aud perhaps $ll9,0O0.OOO.
MIR. Dawes was shrewd enough 10 make no
estimate at all for tho customs separately. but
Jumped them together with tho Internal Rev
