Internal revenue is S199. 365 %. Custom /
dnties S549. $50 .93. Ihis is about tile ay-
erage from day TO day. 1t does not look
much like ruin. What VIC want Is that +
the Government should be able to pay its I
current expenses and interest on the Ma /

Another batch OF bonds amounting TO
ten millions Of dollars will be issued in a
few days, thus Showing the three hundred
million loan of the 4 ta per cent. bonds is
fast being disposed of. This establishes
beyond eayii the soundness ofour \ ational

Secretary Morrill, places the market a
three hundred million loan at Z per cent.

the management of our financial affairs
uatler the present administration has
placed the credit of the nation on solid
basis. 1t cannot be shaken.
