In reviewing the expenditures of
the government in recent years the
Philadelphia Inquirer strains hard to
prove that the Democrats are entitled
to little or no credit for the reductions
since 1877 when they had the first
majority in the House. After COM
pairing the expenditures the Inquirer
says:
These figures, when carefully scanned,
indicate that while the Democrats have
had the control of the national appro-
priations they have taken off one year
and added on the next, and so the real
reduction of expenses has been very
small. They have by their acts shown
that, if in full power, they would be apt
to take in at the spigot and let out at
the bung. Their idea of economy is
not whit better than that OF the poor
Indian who cut piece off the top of his
blanket and sewed it on the bottom to
make it long enough TO cover his feet.
This is probably very smart, but let
us see how much truth there is in it.
The total ordinary expenditures of the
government in the five years preced-
ing the control of the finances on the
part of a Democratic House are as

South CarOlina's Census.

TX GOV. nKES,s REASONS FoR BELIEVING
IN ITS CORRECTNESS.
From ,hc New York World, Aug u.
Among the arrivals at the New York
hotel yesterday was ex.Goy. William
Aiken, OF South Carolina, who is on his
way to Saratoga with his wife for change
OF air and rest. The venerable politi-
clan had his pretty little granddaughter,
who is also granddaughter of Mr. r..
BardweIl Rhett, climbing about on his
knee az he spoke Of the changes which
twenty years have wrought in his own
State of South Carolina. When asked
about the alleged frauds and overcount-
ing in the census enumeration Of the
State, he said:
al believe the census OF the present
year to have been as correct an enumer.
alton as any that has yet been made of
the people of South Carolina, and ! will
tell YOU why I think go. In former
years there was great deal of careless
ness about such matters. The old plan
tation.holders did not like too much in
reference any time, and there was not
a very good record kept OF the slaves,
and If there was such record the own
ers sere not particularly desirous OF
having itappear. for there was capita
tion tax levied upon the number held.
This fell specially hard on plantation
owners, who for years really paid the
taxes of the State, and when railroads
began to be built, and bonds were Is
sued TO aid them, | know the capitation
tax went up to nearly double what it
was. The negroes then had very little
to say in the matter OF the enumeration,
even il they knew it was in progress.
In 1870 the census was wretchcdly TAX.
en-. The enumerators were a set of
black guards. Many of them were
negroes, and not even respectable col
ored men, but the most ignorant fellows,
it would seem, that could be scraped
together. They performed their work
in very slovenly manner, and many
glaTing inaccuracies were the result.
The people were there, as they had
been before. but they were not placed on
the census lists. With the present cen.
sus there is an entirely different state
OF affairs. The colored people have a
general opinion that it is 10 their ad.
vantage TO be entered on the books Of
Uncle Sam, and they have one and all
been careful TO see that they were duly
entered. They seemed TO take it as an
honor, in some way rejecting glory on
them, and each old grandpap had all
his family called up and all the genera.
tons down 10 the last little black cloud
on the horizon OF life. The euumera-
tors. too, have been Of different class.
They have been white men belonging TO
the old families there, who were glad TO
take the post of enumerator for the pay
attached. They were really superior
class of census takers, reduced b. pow
erty to take the task set before them.
They went from cabin 10 cabin and did
what the census laws require--paid per.
sonal visits to every place where IL was
likely that person could find shelter.
All this makes me think that il is the
most perfect census that the State has
ever had. Itmust be bornei in mind, too.
that there has been an influx of settlers,
and we in the South are not standing
still. The same increase should be not.

This shows a reduction of SS9, ,422,-
640.11 in the ordinary expenditures of
the government in five years since the
Democrats obtained control of the ap-
preparations. The saving by Demo
crats amounts to four times the entire
debt Of Pennsylvania, or one and a
half times the municipal debt of Phil
adelphia. Yet the Philadelphia In
qairer wittily tells its readers in the
face of these great results of economy
that the Democratic idea of economy
is not whit better than that of the
poor Indian. A saving of ninety
millions in five years is probably a
very small matter in the estimation of
the Inquirer, but it is a great thing
for the great body of the taxpayers to
whom it gives assurance of still further
reductions of their burdens.
Until the Democrats secured ma
jority in the House the expenditures
of the government were steadily rising
in arithmetical progression, except in
1876, when in facing a presidential
election it was found necessary to
make slight reduction in order to
save appearances. During the five
years of Republican appropriations
with which we have compared the five
years of Democratic control James 4.
Garfield was chairman of the house
committee on appropriations. Thus
the responsibility for waste and ex-
travagance rests not only ON the Re
publican majority in Congress but is
brought directly home to their candi.
date for President.
While making reduction of near
ly NINETY MILLION DOLLARS in the
space of five years the Democratic
representatives in Congress were just
and liberal in their appropriations for
the wounded and deceased soldiers Of
the Union as the official records DEM
onstrate. The total amount Of appro-
priations for pensions in the five Re-
publican years mentioned above are as
fnlInya.

The appropriations for pensions in
.he five Democratic years arc as fol-

1t is thus seen that the Democrats
in Congress while lessening the govern
ment expenditures nearly ninety mil.
lions in five years have in the same
time increased the pension fund more
than THIRTY-NINE MILLION DOLLARS.
The reduction of the lavish and waste
ful expenditures created by the Re-
publicans in Congress has enabled the
Democrats to make this liberal en-
dowment to the pensioners without in
creasing the burdens TO the tax payers
but while greatly diminishing them.
