Republican and Democratic Economy.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.-The Treas
ury Department has published a state
ment showing the amount of the an
nual appropriations made by Congress
for each fiscal year from 1913 to 1881,
inclusive, together with the coin value
of such appropriations, computed upon
the average prices Of gold for each
week in question. The amounts i'll
coin value were us follows, in round
number: For 1873, S134, 100000; 1914,
Sl53, 10000 1915. $137 100000; 1916,
SI29,OOO, 900; for 1877, $115, 100000; for
1878, Sc, 100000; for 1879, Sill 100000; ;
for 1880, S162, 100000; for 1891, $154,-
100000. The smallness of the sum
for 1878 was OccaSiOned by the refusal
of the Democrats to vote apprOpria-
tionS for the support of the army and
other purposes. y comparison of the
amounts appropriated in 1890 and 1881
by the Democrats in the fullneSS OF
their power, with the amounts appro-
priated in 1884 by the Republicans.
shows how little foundation there is
for the assertion so often made by the
Democrats, that they have been ecOnO-
mical by reducing the appropriations.
The appropriations made in the years
1S73-4-5 were in each case less than
those made by the Democrats in 1SS0-S1.
The Democratic appropriations of 1880
exceed the Republican appropriations
of 1873 by S2S,O0O,OOO, those of 1874 by
S9,0G0,000, and those of 1915 by $25,-
100000. The Democratic appOrpria-
tions of 1881 exceed the Republican
appropriations OF 1873 by S20,0OO,O00
and those of 1875 by $17,O0O,0OO. The
appropriations for rivers and harbOrs
in 1S73-i-5 averaged about S6,O00.O0(
per year. The average i'll the year,
1879, 1880, and 1881 was little short
of S9,000,000. For the protection OF
the coast line and our great cities by
! forts and Notifications there was apprO
priated in 1S73-4-5, nearly S5,0O0,0O0
In 1ST9-S0-Sl the sum appropriated fol
these purposes was only $1,100.000, o.
an average of less than 100000 pc
year. The statement furnishes mater
ial for many interesting comparisons

4 very plausible theory.

We copy the following. from the
Kansas Chief, because there are about
ten tons of solid truth in it:
Itnow transpires that Gen. HancOck's s
name is cabbaged, as well as some of
his laurels. An investigation reveals
the fact that his father was an illcgiti-
mate son, and that his real name was
Roberts. Hence, the Democratic can
didate for President is Winfield Scott
Roberts. Now, this is no disgrace to
Gen. Hancock, and makes but little
difference; but when we remember
that Henry Wilson was in the same
fix, and that the Democratic papers
twitted him as jeremiah Colbaith, year
i'll and year out, and even threw it af-
ter him in his grave, it is well enough
to remind them that their man Roberts
has stolen the name Of John Hancock,
and even pretended to be descendant
of that patriarch; that he has attempt
ed to steal the laurals of Gen. Meade:
and that he is now bent upon stealing
the Presidency from Garfield, by means
of bulidOZing and ballot-boX stuffiHg.
Yet, he is superb"

them, that charge Garfield with wrong
doing IN the Credit N1obiIier matter,
have yet published OakeS Ames teSti-
mony, and they dare not, as it would
give the lie to their assertions and often
repeated charges. Oakes Ames' testi-
mony does not convict Gen. Garfield of
any wrong and so the committee re-

A few days ago one of the ward reg

After the book had been gone a few

after some trouble, forced to give itup;
whereupon he was arrested for steal

fixes the penalty for the demeanOr at
not to exceed $500 fine or not more

he ventured upon the criminal course
of stealing the registrars book instead
of the more manly way of borrowing

Terre Haute, Ind, Aug. 10 y spec
ial election was held to-day in the Sixth
Ward, which is of special interest. y
Democratic Councilman having resign
ed, David Philips, Republican, was
elected by 50 majority over Ernest
Bleemel, Democratic. Both parties
contested the election vigorously, and
brought out full vote. The ward is
inhabited mostly by railroad men and
iron workers. The Republicans gain
a majority of the Council, and the con-
troll of the city is transferred to them.
The result is regarded of great impOr-
tance. The greenback vote, which
used to be strong in the ward, was
between the old parties.

The Democrats have much to say
about Hancock placing the civil law
above the military while he was the
hero of the bulldozers by order of An
dy johnson. But the truth is he then
and there acted contrary to this Senti-
ment by removing officers elected un-
der the civil law. He simply with
the power of the bayonet removed Re
publicans and put Democrats in their
places. And how was this superior
civil law doctrine carried out in Mrs.
Surratt's case? Hancock could have
