IMPORTATION OF BREADsTUFFs.

APPROPRIATION OF BREADsTUFEs.
 The latest monthly report from the chief of the bureau of statistics, MT. Brock, sets forth the exports of bread- stuiis during the month of October, also during the four months ending October 3l, and the ten months ending the same time. In corn there was falling of |, the new crop not being ready for mar ket, but in wheat there was tremen- dous increase.
 The value of breadstuifs exported in October 1890, was SS, ,343, ,246, as against $2I ,463, 33i, in the same month of this year, nearly three to one. The figures for four months are, 1890, $36,997 ,47S !; 1891, $l0l, ,l5S, l56. The figures for wheat alone, not including flour, are for the latter period, 1890, SIS, 396, l39; 1891, [, S67 ,2SS. .109. In bushels the figures are, 1890, l4, SO4, 072; 1891, 4,5O3, lS7. For the month of October the wheat figures are, 1890, 3,l00,335 bushels, worth $c,- 6l4,S4O; 1891, 14,0SS, ,2S9 bushels, worth l4,553, ,46S, an increase of more than four fold in quantity, more than five fold in value.
 These are statistics which may well make every patriotic American heart leap with joy. Vast as they are they are only the beginning of the improve ment in our exports of the crop of 1891 The next three months will see an en- ormous increase in the exportatign of wheat, and still more of corn. The total increased value of our farm products of this year is figured by Secretary Rusk as $700, 0,000. The home demand will be considerably larger this year than last, but not so much larger as the for eign demand. Without American breadstufis Europe would experience, in 1892, the most appalling famine of | history.

$l95, ,000, GOO; the income from internal revenue, however. is estimated as much greater for 1893 than for 1891, it being $l45, ,6S6, ,249. A in 1891, and estimated at $l5S, ,000 for 1893. The expendi lures for lS93-the expenditures of the billion dollar congress" - will be greater than those for 1891 by about SEQ, 100000. But in 1893 there will be paid to pensioners alone more than S22, 900 900 in excess of 1891. More also will be paid for postal service. But a great reduction is made on the military expenses, and there will be saving of interest on public debt.
 The report shows a steady reduc- ton in the amount of revenue collected from taxes and imposts of all sorts, a reduction of expenditure in directions where curtailment can be made with wisdom, increase of expenditure, main ly for pensions and postal service, where wisdom and honor demand it, and a comfortable, but not extravagant, sur plus which only Democratic ascendency can endanger by waste or destruction.

A REPUBLICAN ACCOUNTING.

A very pleasant feature of the report of the secretary of the treasury is that which shows a snug surplus of S37 ,239, : 762.57 for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1891. Republican administration is not the extravagant thing that it's Dem- ocratic critics would make it appear. The total revenue for the year was $458, ,544, ,23303, of which rather less than half, $219, ,522, ,205.23 in fact, came from tariff duties. The total expendi- lures were S42l ,304, ,470.46, oi which the largest item was that of pensions, Sl24,- l5,95f.40.
 The estimated surplus for the fiscal year 1892 is $24, ,0O0, GOO, the income be- ing reduced by more than 5000, ,000. So that taxation has been lessened by Republican policy, and not increased, as falsely charged by the Democrats.
 The estimated surplus for the fiscal year. 1898 is $l4 ,036, ,25653. This is the year in which the appropriations made by the so-called billion dollar congress will be expended. It is interesting to know that this much-slandered congress did not provide for expenses that will leave the country without comfortable surplus for use in case of emergency. The Democrats have talked about a deficit Ion account of Republican ex. travagance," but it is just the truth that this country never has known what deficit meant in time of peace, except under Democratic adm;nstra, tion. Republican fnanciering always leaves little money in the national stocking for use in the event of a rainy or stormy day.
 Analysing the incomes and expendi- ture of that billion dollar congress- whose appropriations were made in 1891, and which VIII be spent between June 30, 1892, and the same day of 1893, it appears that the gross income dealt with bv it was less by about s, 3,O0O, ,O0O than that of the year 1891, while that part of the income derived from tariffs was less by about s24 ,5O0 900, the tariff revenue for 1891, being $2l9, ,652 ,2O5 .23, and that of 1893 being estimated at

From President HarrIson's Message: "The legislation Of Congress for the repression of poygamy has, after years of resistance on the part of the mormons, at last brought them to the conclusion that resistance Is un- profitable and unavaiIng. The power of Con- gross over this subject should not be sur. rendered until we have satisfactory evidence that the people of the state to be created would exercise the exclusive power of the state over thIs subject In the same way. The question Is not whether these people now obey the law of Congress against poly gamy, but rather would they make, enforce and maintain such laws themselves if abso- Iutely free to regulate the subject. We can not afford to experiment with this subject, for when state Is once constituted the act Is final and any mistake irretrelyabIe. No com pact In the enabling act could, In my opinion, be binding or effective"

THE UNITED STATES increased it's foreign trade by more than $s2,OOO, ,OOJ in one year under the Mckinley tariff law. Great Britain, according to The St. James Ga2ette, did not increase her trade over the year before. This is a pretty fair argument in favor of the Mckinley law, and when the Democrats in congress talk about repeating it they should be asked to guarantee that that SS2, ,000, GOO trade will not be lost to us.

DAVID BENNETT HILL was elected to the United States senate from New York last winter and should have taken his seat and been sworn in March 4, 1891. He didn't do 1t, and the senate is now in session without any intima- ton from MT. Hill that he has accepted the job for which he is to receive $5 ,0OO year. He is still at work on an old contract in Albany, and it might be as well for the senate to declare the seat vacant and save that $5 ,O0O a year.
