The Expenditures.

Tho argus calls our attention TO the fact
that 1t has stated and re-stated that the ma
tional expenditures have been increased one
hundred and fifty per cent. since the days OF
Buchanan, exclusive of interest and pen
sions. In starting out, we desire TO say that
we have never known our neighbor TO be so
fair, since by excluding the interest and PEN
sion expenses from the account, be relieves
the Republicans from the responsibility of
the same and tacitly admits the responsibility
of the Democrats party for the annual pay
payment of one hundred and thirty
odd million dollars. To be sure, such
an admission is but fair on tie part of
the argus, but even fairness by implication
is so rare spectacle in that journal that it
nearly takes ones breath to witness it, while
the suggestion of any extended exhibition of
fair statemen. in Democratic organ-grinding,
leads one to imagine what a strange sort OF
reading the average Democrat would find in
his Scarborough Bible"
But the Argus insists that the expendi-
lures of the government have increased one
hundred and fifty per cent. under Republican
rule. Our neighbor, however, lodges The
issue of ordinary expenses to which we re-
ferred, and leaves only the interest on the
public debt and pensions out of the account.
If these are 10 be charged to the Democratic
side of the balance sheet there Is no reason
why millions in addition to the interest and
pensions should not be placed to the same
account.
We have before us the items which make
up the expenditures during the fiscal year
ending June 30, 1875, from which it appears
that of a total disbursement of $274, ,623, 1902,
the sum OF Sl49. .S24, ,661was devoted to
The payment Of demands gro,ring directly
out of or rendered necessary By the rebellion
Of the Democratic states in 1S61-5. As years
pass by this amount will decrease, but the
present generation will be called upon to an
nually pay more money to satisfy the obliga-
tions growing out of the reasonable conduct
of the party which now loudly sets up its
claims for the votes Of the people of the
American nation, OF, as Mr. Beck of Ken
lucky would have it, the votes of the people
OF the thirty seven sovereign states which
just now make up the federal union.
The list of items is quite long, but we will
give the greater part of them to show that

Victoria Anderson, the rope dancer, known
as the "Queen of the Lofty wire,'' who last
year appeared 10 Barnum's exhibition, fell, on
Monday, August 8, in Berlin, Germany, from
velocipede, on rope eighty feet high, on
which she was performing, and was SO Injured
that she died soon afterward. Sheiwas twenty
three years ofage.
1t is stated that the exclusive right OF max.
ing and selling all the Photographic pictures
OF articles exhibited, views and portraits at the
great International Exhibition of 1876, IS IN the
hands of company, having for Its president
William hoffman of Montreal, and manager,
John A. Fraser of Toronto.

SENATOR Mc'Dona Id is defining the posi-
ton which the hard-money Democrats are to
take. He says that if specie payments are
resumed in 1879 the volume of the currency
must be reduced one-half and to that he is
opposed. Before 1879 he expects, he says, to
vote for the repeal Of the specie resumption
bill. This is doubtless the ground which the
hard-money Democrats of Maine will take.
They will proclaim themselves in favor of re-
sumption, but resumption at some indefinite
time ia the far future. Meanwhile they
will oppose all measures looking 10 resump-
ton, and favor additional issues of treasury
notes.

The Democratic hard. money journals are
arguing that there is really no danger of inaa-
ton, even if the Democrats elect President
and House on an initiation platform, because
the Senate is Republican. 1t is strange TO
see Democrats depending upon Republican
honesty and prudence TO protect the country
againstthe pernicious effects of dangerous
Democratic doctrines. The people will prefer
to choose Republican House and President,

making political capital, garbled the accounts
of government expenditures. In repy to the
charge that it omitted the statement of ex

which would help to prove our case, emitting
1873 and 1874 because the accounts were larg-
