The Experience Of an Accounting Omcer q
the Treasury.


the Treasury.
Washington Cor Chicago Inter Ocean.l
An accounting officer of the treasury,
who passes upon the various appropria
tions, remarked to your correspondent
that, although he had been many years
in the treasury, the thirst for appropria-
tions exceeded anything in his expert
ence. He said our legislation, where
money was involved, was becoming very
vicious, and unless the people put
stop to it there was no telling what the
result would be. He said that the law
making power seemed to regard our
debt as nothing, and went on appro-
priating money as if we did not owe a
cent, and were five times richer than
before the war, when, as matter OF
fact, the people were less able to bear
burdens than then. Yet, as a matter
of fact, the public debt is a mortgage
upon every mans property to the ex-
tent of 10 per cent. of its value, for the
true gold value of property was to day
in this country not over 800, ,000, ,000, 900.
Tho assessed valuation by States is
very much less than this, and less than
it was in 1870, being then $l4,000000,-
900, and now about $12,000,000, 900.
Taking the assessed value as a basis,
and the public debt is about 10 per
cent. of the entire wealth of the country
"A mortgage upon every mans prop
erty.
This gentleman thought that matters
could be improved if people would call
public meetings and petition Congress
to cut down the expenses and cease to
make extraordinary appropriations un-
til the debt is extinguished. There is
no good reason why Government ex-
penses should be in 1879 five times
what they were in 1860. There had
been insufficient increase in wealth and
population to justify this large increase
in the burdens laid upon taxpayers.
The estimates for the next fiscal year
were about $285,0O0,000, and it is not
believed that so large a sum can be
levied upon the productive industry of
the country without prolonging the
"hard times from which all sections of
the country Mt present suffer.

Invalids' Hotel at Buffalo, ~ Y. Every physi-
clan knows how much recovery depends upon
good nursing and tho hygienic conditions OF the
sick-room. Chronic diseases are especially
subject u these conditions.
