Randallism Explained.

DdttHbOFo sun ANe"e'J'
Mr.. Randall announced to the Kentuck-
ians his desire to free both their chief pro-
ducts, whisky and tobacco, from taxation,
and to raise the entire revenue of the govern
ment from the tariff tax and miscellaneous
sources. In other words, he proposes so to
reform" the tariff as to raise $75,000,000 more
from that source than we do at present. That
is an intelligible programme, but higher tax
on whisky and lower tax on blankets and
other necessaries Of life would perhaps suit
the DeODlc better.

Financial Affairs of the Exposition.
1t can hardly be possible that the
managers of the New Orleans Exposition
are in debt 100000, and yet the dis
patches from New Orleans seem to indi-
cate that such is the fact. The amount
loaned by the government and the cOntri-
buttons of the state Of Louisiana, the
city of New Orleans, and private indl-
viduaIs, amounted to about $1,700,OCO.
The inference from the dispatches is that
this vast sum has been expended and
100000 besides.
Perhaps there is no occasion for sur
prise that expenditures have been so
large when it is remembered what has
been done. No such exposition buildings
have ever before been erected. The work
done has been immense, and there GER
tainly is much to show for the money.
There is no time now to inquire wheth-
or there has been extravaganza. If the
success of the exposition is to depend in
the least upon securing
loan of $5OO,O0O or more,
the questions which must be answered
promptly are, how and where can it be
obtained? --
1t is doubtful if it can be obtained from
private sources, and it is about certain
that the city of New Orleans and the State
of Louisiana cannot be depended upon for
further help. The managers appear to
hope that Congress will come to their aid.
While everybody in the South and, per-
haps, the sentiment Of the whole country
would be in favor of the government
making the exposition a further loan, it
must be admitted that the prospect that
Congress will view any proposition of
that kind favOrably is not at all promising.
While there were doubts, perhaps, when
the 81 ,OOO, 600 loan was made whether it
would ever be returned the feeling was
that the country would be the gamer,
even if it should not, and there
was, therefore, very little opposition
to it. The situation now, however, is
somewhat different. There are many who
will object, and ask questions difficult to
answer satisfactorily if loan to meet
debts is asked for.
Unless it can be shown that there is
good reason for thinking that all the
money borrowed will be repaid there is
not much chance for getting an addi-
tiOnal loan. Can that be shown?
The attendance thus far has not been
large. but there are reasons for that.
From the middle of January until the
last of May the attendance, doubtless,
will meet expectations.
