A Confession--No Hope of Economy Under
Republican Rule.

A Confession-No Hope Oh icohohs '""o'
Republican Rule.
The Times falls into singular error when
il assumes that the sum which Will he re-
quired annually to carry on the govern
ment of the United States is expressed by
the figures of last years expenditure.
The national expenditures of 1882
amounted to s257,9S2 i59. The Times al
lows s3l 900, OO) for arrears of pensions and
leaps to the conclusion that because
about S22i 900 600 were spent last year Tor
other purposes of government, s22l ,OOOWO
is the least sum that will meet these other
expenses in the years TO come.
But the Times S22i 900, 600 represents,
not the necessary outlay for honest aud
economical administration of public affairs,
but the climax of republican extravaganza
and the top notch Of republican corruption.
The Times 1921 ,0OOOOO includes an eX-
penditure of siS, 5704H on account OF the
war department alone. In single year Oh
profound peace the republican party spent
for and through its military establishment
So 5OO, eco more than it cost the nation to
carry on the war with Great Britain during
the two years 1913 and 1914.
The Times S22i 600, 600 also includes an
expenditure of Sl5,032 0i6 on account OF
the phantom navy. In year in which, he
sole naval achievement was the ioundering
of a rotten ship. the republican party under
the lead of the iobber Robson, squandered
aud stole more than it cost during the two
years 1918 and 1914 to support navy that
won everlasting glory on the seas,
The Times 1921 100000 inclndes an ex-
penditure of $9,736,H7 on account of the
Indian Bureau. This amounts to about
$50 apiece for every man, woman, and
child of the 5000 Indians enumerated by
the last census.
Our neighbor's estimate also includes the
wages of great army of tax eaters organ
lied by the republican party for the per
petuaton of its own corrupt misrule.
Yet the Times commits itself to the opln-
ion that $22i 600, GOO is "the least sum which
the new revenue plan will be required to
get from the tariff alone"
at may be said adds our esteemed con
temporary, "that the expenditures can be
economical. That is true, but 1t Is not
very likely that they will be-"
This is a remarkable admission for the
leading republican newspaper to make.
There is no prospect of honest and economl-
cal government while the republican party
remains in power--LN New York Sun.

Major Niolerson's Tactics.

A Washington special August 10th to
New York Times says that Major Nicker-
son, the mysterious and much-marrled
army officer has once more favored the
War Department with an official COM
munication. This time he simply reports
his address for the current month, as re-
quired by the regulations, without calling
attention to an alleged inclOsed resigna-
ton, which, when looked for, was found
missing. AS before, he reports his ad-
dress as Philadelphia. The letter was
dated two days in advance of the Phila-
aelphia post-mark and a day in adj
vance of its receipt here, which, In con-
nection with other facts in possession of
the War Department officials, makes it
evident to them that he is not in that city,
but kas letters forwarded from there by a
confederate. 1t has, in fact, been known
since the receipt of his previous letter
that he is not in Philadelphia and has not
been since he left Washington, when he
passed through the city ON his way to
Canada. He is supposed to be now in
Montreal, 1t is probable that nothing
further will be done till Congress meets,
when its help will be asked to get the
department out of its very singular pre-
dicament. Major Nickerson cannot be
dropped without trial so long as ne con.
forms to the regulations in giving his
residence, and he cannot be found to be
tried.

NNv,1l- w:

About aweek ago Walk Williams and
Joe Russell, while sinking shaft upon
their Cave mine, on the eastern slope of
Copper Queen Hill, in Bisbee, at depth
of about thirty feet broke in upon an
opening, the extent of which was not
fully known until day before Yesterday,
when hole large enough to admit man
was made, Rocks had been thrown down,
and from the resound it was evident that
the opening was of considerable extent, but
it was not until a man with candles had
been lowered by a rope to a distance of 30
feet that the full extent of the wonderful
place was discovered. With lighted cam
dies he explored the cave, rivalling in
grandeur that of Aladdin, with the differ
ence that, instead of precious stones, our
Bisbee cave was literally hung with
stalactites of copper stain, while from
the bottom uprOse stalagmites of the
same material, caused by thousands of
years Of trickling water through the over
lying limestone. On all sides were found
great deposits of copper carDonates, in
places appearing like green velvet, the
greenish reflection from all sides appear
ing ghOstlike, but grand.

Reconsiderins the Tea Farm Qucs-

non.
From the following which we clip from
the Charleston NerS and Courier, Ut
seems that DIR. Loring, Commissioner of
Agriculture at Washington, has recon-
sidered his action in reference to the
South Carolina Summervllle tea farm.
"A short while ago Major Vardell, who
has charge Of the Government Tea Farm,
near Summerville, was instructed to sell
out the personal property on the place, as
the government could not support the farm
any longer. Some of the articles were
sold. The Commissioner of Agriculture,
however, has recently notified Mr..
Nardell to suspend the sails and repur-
chase such articles as have been parted
with, as it is his purpose to continue
the operation OF the farm out Of the
proceeds of his contingent fund and try
and secure an appropriation from Con-
gress at the next session. The plants are
in fine condition now, and will yield a
crop of leaves next fall. 1t is therefore a
matter of great Importance that the farm
should be properly supported and worked
until the experiment has been fairly
tested. rs saOp as the crop is gathered
the farm, it is estimated, will be more
than self-suppOrting."
This is a total change of attitude on the
part of the Commissioner toward Mr.. lie
Dues well known tea farm experiment,
and not at ali consistent with the report
made on that experiment by the Commits
sioner's trusted agent. The doctor left
us to understand that China tea could not
he matured so far North, but to be sue
cessful the experiment must be trans
ferred to Florida.

The municipal authorities of st Peters
burg are inspired with wholesome fear
that cholera may invade Russia by the
old route along the VOlga. They are.
therefore, adopting stringent sanitary
measures. Stringent measures mean some
thing more in st. Petersburg than they do
in any other European city. Severe penal
ties are inflicted on those who having
been warned fail TO put their premises in
good sanitary condition. No excuses are
accepted. As the summer draws to a
close apprehensions of the appearance of
cholera in this country seems to abate, 1t
would be well, however, not to relax vigil
lance until danger is past.

The Tribune and Journal of Chicago
have lately engaged in a lively journal
istic tilt. The journal wanted to know
why the Tribune editor changed from
high-prOtectiye-tariffm man to an advocate
Of revenue reform. The Tribune editor
replied by quoting Whately, that ''the
man who prides himself on maintaining
a mechanical consistency, or never
changing his opinion, is a creature either
too dull to detect his mistakes, or too OBJ
stinate to own to them.' The Tribune edi-
tor further says: ''The consistent Journal
man having committed himself TO the
notion that the tariff horse was sixteen
feet high, sticks to it in face of all cor
,.aetion and exposure of error. The Iri-
5l,ue editor is doing his best to convince
his party that it occupies the wrong posi-
ton on the tariff.
