Surplus Revenue and Education,

The government is likely to have a sur.
plus of about $lj0,0O0,00O at the end of the
prcSeAt year, unless there is falling OIL
from the average of the last three months.
1t is urged by many that to apply all
this surplus to the payment of the national
debt will not be wise. 1t is admitted that a
revision of the tariff may diminish the
surplus somewhat, but no such sweeping
revision as.would extinguish il is desirable
or possible. What shall be done with the
surplus? In 1885 the national treasury
was overlooking, and relief was effected
bv distributing the surplus among
the state as loan, which has never been
demanded or repaid, lsit desirable to adopt
u similar method of disposing of surplus
revenue now We think not. A sugges.
ton made by the Cleveland Leader presents
u better use fer such part of the surplu.

LOOKING TO THE FUTURE.

| We are now as nation in most pros
porous condition with glowing prospects for
the future. There is an abundance of
money in the country, and in some of the
northern and New England states there are
doubtless millions lying idle, awaiting in
ducement for judicious investment. But
Notwithstanding the outlook ourpcope can
not be too cautious in the matter of over.

in mourning obligations for the future. The
crops in all this section will turn out better
than the long drouth Of the past summer
gave us reasons to suspect, yet for all this,
! it is safe rule to keep near shore. We
are approaching the ominous tenth year
that in the bye-gones has brought its linan-
cial troubles. BY prudence, by living with
in our means, by not being tempted to
grasp at fortune at once through too
great n venture, we may avert
or at any rate postpone what
seems to have a periodicy
as prompt as the recurrence of these deem
NAL visitors, the sunspots which some
speculative minds have contcnded are some

The great plans and vast

fsrcseen weakness, some unsupported acct

whole fabric that is connected with them.
The strength of chain is its weakest link;
this broken, its value and all that reposes

happy in the method of her development.
Millions of dollars are coming into the
state through the construction and the run

that are trayersing her through every part,
while but little very little, is being with
drawn. Her treasury and her tax account
and her outstanding Indebtedness is
in more than satisfactory con

should come and our merchants
shall have steered clear of the breakers, no

Here will come those having moneys left
over for investment, and thus the tide o.

AND now it is proposed that shect.iron
instead of hemp shall hereafter be used for
the covering of cotton bales. The present
hemp covering is used solely because of its
chcapness, but, as it admits moisture and
sand it causes considerable waste of cot
ton, A number of heavy cotton dealers
have therefore written north for quotations
on No, 30 sheet.iron. Ii it is adopted it
will have an enormous sale; each bale will
require sheet 76NH inches, and weighing
twenty-five pounds, and, as the annual crop
is 6, 0o0,0o0 bales, it would take 5000 tons
to cover them.

The st, Louis Globe-Democrat says that
immigration well sustans the promise OF
the early months ofthe year, In one day
last week 1000 strangers landed at New
York, and the arrivals at all ports in the
United States in September aggregated
nearly $1,000. In the three months which
ended with September the number was
about $4,000, being an increase of 1900
over the same period ,last year. Germany
heads the list, as she has for some time,
England is second, and then comes Canada,
ahead even of ireland, There are no signs

A Failure

The firm of Wallace & Co., dry goods and
