OUR flag has been insulted by some
miserable Costa Ricans. 1t is long
way down to Costa Rica, and if we in
tend to take our Gatling gun and wipe
that insult out, perhaps we had better
start.

THE scarcity of one and two dollar
bills, which is greatly mountaineering
the country of late, appears to be the re-
suit of misplaced economy. 1t is said
that the banks are unable to procure a
supply of small bills from the Treasury
Department, and it has been supposed
that this difficulty proceeded from de-
sire to make place for the new silver
coinage. These small notes are in great
demand by the country banks, and free
supply of them would be a great public
convenience. But they have not been
withheld from circulation by any desire
to retire them or to substitute silver in
their stead. The whole trouble seems to
have grown out of a misplaced economy
which led Congress at its last session to
make insufficient appropriations for the
transportation of Government securities
and the moneys of the Treasury from one
office to another, or to the banks at
distant points. In 1876 $250,000 was ap-
propriated for that purpose. This sum
was reduced to $4,000 in 1877, while
for the service Of the Department for the
current year only $4,000 was provided.
This sum has proved to be entirely made
quate to enable the Government to pay
express charges on necessary transfers,
much less to enable it to keep the coun-
try banks supplied with small bills Or
even the new coinage Of silver. The
vaults of the Treasury are, as conse-
quence, glutted with silver and paper of
popular denominations, for which the
business of the country is suffering great
ly, from mere want of funds to place it
where it is most wanted.
