The Estimates for the Next Fiscal
Year Compared with the ApprO.
priattOns for n Present.
The estimates for the fiscal year ending
June 80. 1887. exceed by SIS. G7s. 1853 90
the estimates for the current year. What
is more important still, they exceed by
$50, 1876. 40 o. the appropriations for the
present year.
II is we'll understood that the appropria.
lions in the last Congress were far beyond
the bills reported to the House Of Repre-
sentstives, and were much larger than the
actual needs Of the public service required.
The estimates are distributed by the
Treasury under twelve different heads.
BY taking them separately the proposed
expenditures for the coming fiscal year
may be compared with the appropriations
for the current year. The items Of In.

From the manner In which the esti-
mates are made up by the different
Bureaus, IL may be assumed that the
aggregates will be reduced materially un.
less the new rules OF the House lead to
extravaganza. All the figures sent to the
Treasury are excessive. and are prepared
with the expectation Of large reductions.
In some Instances there are improve.
ments and additions contemplated. OF
which the general public have not been
made aware. However. the Democrats in
Congress are bound by q higher duty than
caution in voting supplies. They are
pledged 10 retrenchment OF the public ex-
penditures. They came into power in the
House ON that issue in 1874. n the elec-
ton Of 1884 turned TO q great extent
