"ntmocratic economy" OF the kind
which the Randalls aud IIolmans espe-
rccially affect, has brought the government
into disgrace with our own people on more
than enc occasion. just now 1t is bringing
tie natiCn into Disgrace and humiliation In
foreign lands
Although the consular service OF the
United States is source Of very consid-
cradle net income to the federal treasury,
II occurred to the Democratic economists Of
the forty-clghth Congress that they might
possibly squeeze a few more thousands out
Of Il. Therefore, IN the diplomatic aud
consular appropriation bill for the last fiscal
year, they appropriated for contingent ex-
penscs Of consulGtes sum notoriously in
adequate TO the demands Of the service.
This was done in spite of protests from tbs
State Department and from Republican
congressman, who knew something Of the
business on which the Democratic blum
derheads were "going It blind" with the
usual pighcNdcd obstinacY Of conceitcd
ignorance.
Not only was the appropriation made too
small to pay the necessary incidental bill
for rents, lights, iucl, &C., but provision
was attached forbidding the expenditure
OF q cent more than the sum named, thls
virtually closing the Offices OF consuls or
compelling them to meet the bills out of
their own pockets.
AS was forseen and therefore, foreknown,
the money gave out long before the end Of
the fiscal year. Then those consals where
the fees were sufficient paid their expenses
out of current receipts. But the law com
| pcls the auditing officials Of the treasury TO
disallow all such accounts and they are
charged up to the consuls.
In other oillces-notably in most of tho
| China consulates-the receipts do not pay
| eXpenseo In such cases consuls have
drawn on the treasury only to have their
drafts rejected. They have paid their own
money for needful public service, and can
get no return until Congress comes to their
relief.
The most outrageous case Is the protest of
a draft given to foreign bank by consul
for money actually expended in defrayng
the incidental expenses Of his Office. This
official is now in Washington, and justly
feels that he has been shamefully treated
by his government. The protested draft
was sent back to the foreign bankers who
loaned the money and who knew that it
was for the use Of the United States. Sew
eral other cases Of similar character AMI
almost equally bad are reported.
OF course Congress will pay all these
claims. They will 90 into a deficiency bill
and pass easily enough. Dut what a bur
lesque on economy is presented by this two
cent expedicnt of picayune men. Disgrace
at home and abroad and outrageous treat
ment of honorable officials are the price We
pay for giving few men chance to strut
as ''watch dogs Of the treasury"
