THAT we are quite as good as our ance s.
tors and that the present time Is fully equa,
to any golden age OF the past becon
more apparent the more we learn of The
worlds history. The latest evidence, indi-
rect to be sure, is afforded by the play of the
Deluge, now having such run in New York.
As it is the purpose of art to hold The mirror
up to nature it may be presumed that tie
writer of the play consulted the most trust
worthy authorities in regard to the customs
OF the period and people, Adam and Eve
inquire very conspicuousy in the drama, and
1t IS only fair to suppose that the author was
well up IN antediluvian life before he con-
sented to introduce them-thouob q shade of
suspicion, il must be confessed, is cast unon
his knowledge of dress in the year one Tho
costumes of our first parents Certainly NOT
being historically correcS. In this play we
are told an opportunity is given to the Kiraltv
Brothers to exhibit their ability as ballet
masters, and grand bacchanal chorus is
introduced in the first act. If the author has
had any regard for historic probabilities aud
artistic congruities land there is no reason to
suppose he has not) the inference is plain

After deducting from. the pensions the
small amount paid to revolutionary pension
ers and those of the war of 1912, and adding
to the above list large number of small
items, too numerous to be given, it will be
found that of the 1920, 100000 expended over
$156.OOO,O0O of the expenditure is directly
due to the "late unpleasantress" melted and
carried on by tUo-thirds of the leading Demo-
cratic statesmen p of the nation and con-
fined to states which constantly gave Demo-
cratic majorities and where Republican
would not dare to express his sentiments
at the ballot box. When the Lincoln ad-
ministration went into power Mr.. puehanan
turned over to it Democratic rebellion, a
treasury plundered by Democrats and ma
ton disarmed by the same. The S156. OOO,-
900 is reminder of the unfaithfulness of the
last national Democratic administration and
the reasonable purposes of large majority
of the Democratic leaders of ten years ago.
For many years the people of this nation will
have occasion to remember this last legacy of
the Democratic party.
We are aware that the Democratic leaders
are very anxious not to be reminded of the
page of infamy which their associates have
contributed to the country's history, but so
long as they attempt to foist their share of
the responsibility in the present taxation. IN
on the Republicans, it is idle for them in fire
frenzy to cry:
"Oqt, damned spot, out!'

WILL those Dernoclatic journals which are
now urging the voters Of Maine to elect DEM
oeratic congressman instead of the present Re
publican delegation, give us the record OF the
the Democratic members on the back pay ques-
ton? Who was their candidate for speaker last
December? Wasn't 1t Fernando Wood? And
didn't Mr.. Wood dodge the vote on the back
nav question in the previous Congress ard af-
forwards pocket the 5000? so says the record
yet by vote of nearly two to one, Mr.. Wood
was nominated for speaker by the Democratic
members in caucus, defeating Mr.. Cox, a Wig
orous opponent of the so called back pay
grab, and subsequently receiving every vote
of his party associates except four. Is this
the method Democratic congressman take to
denounce "salary grabbers?" No more
about this matter.

Where the Money Goes -

Our Dem ocratic exchanges have for several
weeks kept in type the expenditures of tue
government the past few years, doubtless for
the purpose of informing their readers of a
fact which they will not bear in mind on cleo
ton day. In order to give little variety to
this Enumeration table, we propose to give a
few of the items of expenditure to which
this large sum of money has been devoted.
They tell us that the expenditures of the
present administration for the past three
years has averaged in ronnd numbers $780,
100000 annually. From detailed list of the
expenditures for the year ending June Both
1873. we take the following:
