The grand total figures, except as to
tea and coffee, on last years receipts.
and therefore more than likely to over
run, is over three hundred and three
millions. This would leave. even with
such tax schedule, a surplus Of over
ten millions.
Thus it appears that dozen items upon
which the whole civilized world are prac-
ticslly agreed as proper items Of taxa
tion will afford an income moro than suf-
heient for the entire expenses OF the
Government. That is practical busi-
ness, financial statement. 1t takes no

maintenance OF the Government, a GER

they must be protected in their
respective enterprises or they will
lose money and the enterprises will
be driven from the country. In compli.
ance with this demand and threat the
people have been mulched Of bonus TO

pay the alleged difference between the

LET's Have The FIcUREs.

At this time when men are speculatinr,
what Congress will do in the matter Of
tariff, it is well to consider what the
situation is and what Congress might do.
The sum required and that the people
are asked TO pay for maintenance OF the
Governmens--to pay pensions. interest
and all other expenses--is S299, 27l 400.
But the amount that the people win pay
in increased prices on goods Is about
$500, 600, 900, Of which S3s5 000. 600 win
80 into the Treasury, and the remainder
into the pockets Of the already rich
manufacturers.
The difference between the amount
collected and the amount needed is
$92, 72S, sos SO that the people pay
about $500 600. 600 more taxes every
year than are needed to support the gov
ernment on the wen worked fallacy that
it is necessary to support favored and
already rich cass OF pampered citizens
In view Of this enormous difference
and the questionable policy Of imposing
this immense tax upon the people under
the poor disguise Of protecting the
American workingman the New York
Herald has published a scheme OF taxa
tion to show what is needed and how it
can be obtained at the least expense to
the people. The Herald says:
All the revenue the Republican book
Of estimates calls for can safely be
counted on from internal taxes and tariff
duties on not much over dozen heads

A Live Public Improvement Society

The Ellsworth Public improvement Society
was organized April. Ios6, with more thar
one hundred members. Since that time they
have received $3.50, from members fee.
gifts and the proceeds of various intertain-
ments. Two hundred aud seven trees have
neen set out and guards placed around some
of the mature trees that were in danger OF
being killed. The Old tannery building has
been torn down and the refuse cleared
away. One hundred and twenty five
dollars was contributed TO the
High school fund, s220 WAS ex-
pended on the Grammar school grounds,
about S25 around the Free Baptist church
and as much more on the old cemetery. The
balance of the money expended has been
used in cleaning streets, filling up garbage
holes and abating nuisances generally. They
have now a cash balance of Sl35 in the
treasury, and hope TO persuade every one of
the old members to join again for 1889, and
as many new ones possible. The beneti
cent effect of the society cannot be estimated
by the actual amount of work done by it, for
it has also stimulated private enterprise and
Improvements have been made in many di-
rectlons.

The waterville Court Room

| Judge Whitehouse Clerk of Courts Choate
and Sheriff Stevens went to Waterville las,
week, AMI with committee composed
of Mayor Meader and several members
of the City Council visited City Hall
and planned the arrangement of the new
court room. The room is not quite so large
AS Granite Hall in this city, and will give
ample accommodation for all who desire TO
attend. Upon the start two apartments will
be partitoned of aud furnished, one for the
use of the Judge and the other for that Of
the clerk The dressing room beneath the
the stage will be used for the jury.
The Judges desk will be in front of the
stage, elevated two steps above the floor,
and the clerk and stenographer will
occupy positions one step below him
On the left of the judge sit the jury upon
commodation. At their left will be desk
and seats for the sheriff and his deputies
portion of the hall will be enclosed within
a rail and reserved for the use of members
OF the Dar- IL Will De carpeteu ana Iur-
nshed with the necessary tables and desks.
Two ante rooms at the entrance will be used
as Hobbies. 1t is estimated that the neces-
sary alterations will cost in the neighborhood
of sl200. which must be betrayed by the
city of Waterville. Everything must be in
readiness for inspection by the county com
missioners on the first of May as the law
establishing the court provides that unless
all the arrangements are approved on that
date its remaining provisions shall become
null and void. As court will not
sit until the second Tuesday in June the hall
will be useless for any o,her purpose for
nearly ten weeks, and all travelling enter
tainments, public meetings and other gather
ings must be held elsewhere. After court
adjourns the partitions and furniture must be
removed at some expense, and again put in
in season for the November term.
