and commanded the active support oi
the moneyed interests of the States by
making the security of those interests
dependent upon the integrity and credit
of the nation
The present system of internal revenue
was created to meet the wants growing
out of an emergency. Through its oper-
alton those wants were supplied prompt
ly, regularly, and without shock or iniu-
ry to the business of the country. So
efficiently was the system organized, so
equalized were the taxes, levied under it,
so cheerfully were they responded to by
loyal people, that the future historian,
when he looks for the evidence of those
burdens which Cypress people during
the prosecution of great war, will fail
to discover that the payment of these
countless millions was regarded as op-
pressiVe, or checked for moment the
growth of nations prosperity.
During the war period, from June 80,
1861, to June 80, 1865, the net expendi-
lures of the Government far exceeded
the net ordinary revenue. The follow
ing table will show the ordinary receipts
and expenditures for the five years
named:
The Jackson standard. [volume] (Jackson C.H., Ohio) 1847-1888, 1875-08-12

The tables submitted show, at glance,
the extraordinary expenditures directly
due to the rebellion. The work required
of the army and the magnitude of mill
tary operations, can only be realized by
a comparison of the expenditures. The
army expenditures for the years 1862,
SO, '64, and 1865, amounted to $2,713,-
569, ,422 SO, or nearly five times as much
as the entire army expenses of the Gov
ernment from 1889 to 1860, period of
seventy-one years. The army expendi-
lures of a single year, 1S65-the close of
the war-were 81, ,030, ,690,400 06, or with
in fraction of 100000 for every day
in the year.
The nation has been required to pay
for the item of interest during the past
fourteen years, $1,305, ,O42,62 SO, as
against 1896, ,590,06S 90, the amount paid
from 1889, to 1860, or more than six and
a half times as much as the entire
amount of interest paid by the Govern
ment for seventy-one years. The pen
sion payments, also directly chargeable
to the rebellion, show that $262, ,Sl4,-
$50 2S have been paid out or more than
three times the entire pension payments
of the Government for the seventy-one
years prior to 1860.
If party is to be judged by the weight
of Its responsibilities, then the Republl-
can party in its administration of public
affairs cannot fail to invoke the favora-
BILE Judgment of impartial minds 1t has
borne strain which laid upon weaker
shoulders, might well have destroyed a
Government The magnitude of its Ia
bors can only be measured by their
priceless results, and these will grow in
value as generation follows generation.
If the expenditures shown are without
parallel in our history, SO the means en-
ployed, the honesty and energy display
ed, the craftsmanship which created the
systems necessary to carry the Govern
ment through the most active period OF
it's existence, must be regarded as with
out parallel in the history of nations.
The wisdom and sagacity which devel
oped tho internal revenue system, and
our present currency system, should en-
title the Republican party to the graft
tude of the country. The first made pos
sible the immense revenues necessary tc
prosecute the war to successful issue
The latter made the payment of the
taxes uniform throughout the country
provided a safe currency of equal value
in all the States, protected industry, by
removing its earnings from the possibil
ity of loss through State bank failures

To the above receipts should be added
$33, SCI ,924 "a received as premiums, and
to the expenditures should be added
$I76,034,7l4 Is paid for interest, and
$l,717,900 II paid as premiums, making
the total net receipts for the five years
named 1904, ,496, $50 y, and the total net
expenditures for the same time 3,419,-
741,0 ,02l 43, or more than four times the
amount of the receipts. 1t will thus be
seen that the expenditures exceeded the
receipts during the five years of war,
$2,615, PA, 461 IL
To meet this excess, the nation was
forced to look outside of its ordinary rev.
enues, and the amount needed was pro-
vided by its loans and Treasury notes
These loans make up the bulk of our
present National debt. The following
shows the yearly payment for interest
from 1861 to 1874:
