The Dismal Figures.

There could be no more striking illustra-
ton OF the folly Of the irresponsible Demo-
Gratis In the Fifty-second House than Is AZ
forded by Mr.. HoLMAN's attempt to de-
fend tho record of tho majority in the
matter of appropriations.
To make II showing OF reduction and re-
trenchnent in the total for the session. Mr..
HOLMAN is obliged to compare that total
with the figures for the second session of
tho Billion Congress. instead OF the
figures for the first session. where the
comparison properly belongs. The Re-
publican spendthrifts of the Billion
Congress made away with Si0i,456-
24s OF the peoples money at their first
session. At their second session tho total
grew to SAL. 23o,672. The figures for this first
session OF tho Democratic Fifty-sccond
Congress- are $5O7. 70l $50. or Sl3.2i5. 1872 more
than at tho corresponding session OF the
Billion Congress. Mr.. HOLMAN Is forced,
therefore, to set this first sessions total
against tho second and more extravagant
session of the Flfty-first Congress: an I'M
natural proceeding. however generous may
be the motive that suggests 1t.
Sometimes the appropriations during the
second session OF Congress exceed those
of the first session, and sometimes there is
n reduction. In the Forty-fourth. Forty
seventh. Forty-ninth. and Fiftieth Con-
crosses there was decrease in tho second
year. In the Forty-flfth. Forty-sixth.
Forty-elghth, and Fifty-frst Congresses the
appropriations were larger at tho second
session than at the first. The temptation and
tendency is toward greater extravaganza
at the final session OF Congress. for then
the accumulated jobs press more desperate
ly. and the checks are loosened somewhat
by the fact that the elections In the Con-
gress districts for the next House have al
ready been held while the temptation is
not lcsscned if meanwhile Presidential

From he Cpuri-,.J Journal.
So long as the Force bill is menace to the

from ne Dearare County Democrat,
The so-called Force bill is one Of the vital
issues OF the present campaign. because an
attempt was made by President Harrison two
years ago to enact it. and tho first plank of the
Republican platform endorses it Down with
Harrison and the Force BILL" says THE Sun.
and SO say we
From II. Cauri,r.Journal.
Every vote in tho South cast for Weaver Is q
vote to strengthen Harrison. and Harrison en-
bodies the issue Of the Force bill above all
others.
In view OF such facts. seeing and knowing
that the first effect Of a Republican triumph in
November will be tho passage OF a bill giving
negro supervisors contro! over Congressional
elections in the South. who can fail to vote for
Cleveland?
Remember. n voto for Weaver is not a half
vote. it is a whole vote for Harrison. Reid. and
the Force bill
From he Atlanta Constitution.
The issue is in tho platform. It is writ
large so that all may read. 1t is part OF the
Republican purpose. As matters stand. it
seems to DO a necessary issue. In several Of
tho Northern and Western States the negro
voters hold the balance OF power. and as these
negro voters. whose support Is absolutely es-
scutial to Republican success. are not allowed
to hold any office of trust or profit it would
seem to DO necessary to whoop them up to
some extent on the limo OF race prejudice
Nothing nts the case so well rs the Johnny
Davenport Force bill. for which Mr.. Harrison
work ed SO hard in 1890.
The pressure Of public sentiment may COM
pei the President to make an effort to take the
issue out OF tho campaign. but he will find
him self powerless to do so. 1t is the only issue
which really rel rcscnts the sectionalism Of
the Republican party. and it will remain an
issue to the end.
