its partisan friends that such a performance

with cordial approval by the great mass of the

Economy, the taxpayers will be glad to OBJ
serve, seems to be the order of the day at Al
bany. The annual Appropriation bill contains
a large number of items that are fixed by law
and can be neither increased nor diminished.
As passed by the Assembly, this bill called for
an expenditure of about IS, 0O0, 900 for run
ming the State government. The Senate s
Finance Committee, under the guidance of Mr..
Sloan, scrutinzed the items with care, and was
able to make an appreciable reduction in the
total sum. This action was concurred in by
the Senate yesterday, and later on it will UNI
doubleday be approved by the Assembly. The
Legislatures course on the question of eX-
penditures thus far is worthy of all praise.

He issued with him manifesto addressed
