inducement to be economical and even stingy
in expenditures, so that the surplus snouio nov
disappear and with it the sole excuse ior
Democratic tariff revision.
Under this extreme pressure of personal ana
partisan necessity the President and party nave
nevertheless been so wasteful or so incompeteho
that the appropriations already made or prac-
ticaly determined upon exceed the estimates
for the present fiscal year by forty-hve mlliiohs'
In December the Administration officially re-
norted that three hundred and twenty-sx
millions would be needed for the support Oh
Government, exclusive of postal revenues, or
three hundred and eghty-three millions with
those revenues. But the appropriations made
or determined upon amount to over four nun
dred and twenty-eight millions The biis
which have passed both houses exceed four
hundred and eighteen millions, and two other
necossary bills which have been reported VIII
add ten millions more. Nearly all these DIS
have been signed by the President, including
tho most extravagant and waStcful Of them or
nermitted to become laws without veto. NO
veto is to be expected Of either of the neces-
sary bills remaining. which are included IN the
aggregate A Democratic President ana
Democratic House are therefore responsible for
any extravagant or wasteful appropriations thls
wear. although the pressure Of personal ana
partisan necessity provided an extraordinary
protection against wastefulness at this time.
IF the President and party under such peculiar
circumstances cannot help exceeding estimates
bv forty-ive millions, what may be expected
when no such personal necessity stiffenS the
backbone of patriotic economy?
Now. Messrs Democrats, 1T is condition
which confronts us, not theory" and your
free-tradc bill must CO. because the country
cannot cut down taxes and enjoy the luxury
Of a Democratic Reform Administration and
Congress at the same time. If the country
wisely decides to have an economical Repub-
Gcan Administration and Congress hereafter,
then reduction Of revenue may be possible,
but il is not possible so long as we have IN
competent heads of departments, expenditures
exceeding estimates by many millions, Con-
cress which cannot help wasting money even
when it tries its hardest, and a President who
suffers wasteful appropriations to be made be-
cause he will not offend his party friends.
Your theories Of free trade are not timely;
for reduction OF revenue in any way the hrsS
and most imperative necessity is Republican
administration Please to remember Messrs.
Democrats, that it is a condition which con-
fronts us, and not a theory, pitch your revenue
reduction bill into the waste-basket' and ad-
iourn this costly and useless long session OF
Congress without further delay.

fallen into its grasp. We shall also hear, per-
haps. of vessels lost on the ocean, for the gale
rushed off the coast and put out to sea ut
tremendous pace. Telegraph wires went down
in the general destruction at points where the
storm was sevcrest, and full details may not
come TO hand for several days. But it is al
ready known that a vast loss OF property was
incurred in the upper Ohio Valley, in the neigh
borhood of Baltimore, near Wilmington ana
elsewhere. More or less serious damage was
likewise inflicted along the lines Of railroad
which terminate in this city, and flood near
Boston put the New York and New.England
Road into such a condition that traffic was ABB
solutely suspended, and not a train on that
line had entered or left the city so late as
Yesterday afternoon. Meagre reports OF bridges

The tempest was doubtless continuation in
other forms of the storm which appeared in the
Gulf of Mexico last week, and which, going
ashore, produced the floods which have been
reported from New-Oreans ever since. Foi
several days its progress was slow, but as 1t
journeyed eastward it gathered speed. and on
Tuesday moved toward the seaboard with

but probably the freshets following the cnor-
nous rainfall will prove to have been the
chief cause of destruction to property. In this
city the precipitation was the greatest ever
recorded in the Signal Service for an equal
period of duration-equvaent. it is said to
four feet of snow, and therefore comparable
in that respect to the March blizzard which
lasted several times as long. Two such vista
tions within six months are probably without
parallel since meteorological records began to
be accurately kept. The metropolis can get

Tgt CONDITION WHICH CONFRONTS U.s."

The CONDITION WHICH CONFRON1S U.s.
"The condition which confronts us" having
somehow mysteriousy disappeared, Jealous
Democrats have various explanations to offer.
The largest and noisiest faction says, " en-
travagant expenditures have exhausted the sur
plus, and the existence Of surplus makes ex-
travagant expenditures inevitable; therefore,
reduce the surplus" This is confession OF
incapacity. A Democratic President and Con-
ercss cannot help being extravagant and waste
full, according to this view of the case, unless
restrained by sheer mpecuniosity. Starve
Democratic Administration, and it may be
economical; otherwise it will waste all the
money in sight-that is the argument. There
seems to be some foundation for this reasoning.
President Cleveland entered upon political
campaign in December, the success OF which
for HIM and for his party depended absolutely
upon the phrase, it is condition which con-
fronts us, not a theory" For he knew that
the country could not be brought to accept free
trade theories as the primary and sufficient
reason for tariff reduction. The sole chance
Of success was to make the country believe
that some reduction was imperativey neces-
sary. and then voters might be induced to sus-
tain reduction shaped by frec-trade prin-
ciples as less Objectionable than the contin-
nance OF terrible surplus, which would alb
sorb the currency and destroy trade and indus
try. Committed to such campaign the Pres

NJ lola has been defending the Partisan
press This is good of NJ. Zola, and also
thoughtful.
Another collision between two steamboats,.
with loss Of many lives, is reported from San
Francisco. And il was not an accident either,
but seems to have been directly due to care
lessness or criminal blundering on board the
City of Chester.
Senators who think it defence OF electoral
outrages in the South to assert that frauds on
the ballot are also committed in Northern
cities should bear this essential fact in mind.
Whether the crime consist in repeating as is
often the case in this city. in forging false
returns, as was The case in Cincinnati, in tissue
ballots or in acts Of violence at the polls, the
offender when caught invariably turns out to
lie Democrat. This rule is without other
exceptions than those which 60 to prove it.
More stringent methods 20 prevent obstruc-
tons to navigation in the waters about this
port will now be set on foot in conformity with
law passed by the present Congress. The
duty Of enforcing This law, which prohibits
the dumping Of refuse and other injurious de-
posts in the waters above Sandy Hook, will
deyolve upon an experienced officer Of the Navy
whom the President has detailed for this ser
vice, and who will have the descriptive title Of
Supervisor Of New ork Harbor. The filing
I'D Of the channels in the harbor has been
serious obstruction to navigation. and until
now no efficient means have been available to
stop it or to detect and punish those who are
responsible for it. The new law has penal
clause, and we shall hope to see it enforced
with severity if it is defied.
Senator Morgan and his Democratic col
leagues, who have had such distressing appre-
tensions lest the rejection Of Mr.. Bayards
giye-away treaty should result in war with
Great Britain, will find the comments Of the
London press upon the Senate's action highly
comforting. They may now readIust their
shattered nerves. Orc woald suppose that the
Democrats would be jus. The people to whom
a war with England would seem impos-
sble They evidently fail to perceive the ten
der relations they hold to the English. Con-
