SECRETARY FOSTER, Of the Treas
ury Department, says the statement
that the incoming administration
will be met by deficit in the treas
ury is not so, and that there will be
none unless the Democrats make one.
1t should be remembered that
money can be gotten out Of the fed
eral treasury only by act of congress,
so that were the Democratic state
ment in relation to deficit correct,
it would be on account of the increas-
ed appropriations of the present
Democratic House.

THE Democrats have had much to

THE Democrats have had much to
say about economy in government eX-
penses and they will have a chance to
set in motion a move that will prove
a great saving in the years to come.
This is to propose a constitutional
amendment which will limit the size
Of the House to its present member
ship. The increase Of .twenty-four
members in the House by the recent
apportionment carries with it an an
nual cost Of at least $3.50, 900, which in
ten years will amount to 81, 300, 900,
and if the present habit of increas-
ing the membership with each census
is kept up, the additional cost will
swell to large proportions in the years
to come. Here is surely chance for
Democratic economy. Besides the
new house, which will consist of 356
members is plenty large enough for a
legislative body, and to enlarge it
would be simply to its detriment. In
fact, many are of the opinion that the
membership ought not to exceed 800.
Any increase of the present members
will be to the hindrance of legislative
business and the interests of the peo-
pie will not be better cared for in
any particular. Outside of legislative
matters it is said that another in
crease of any considerable number
will necessitate the remodeling of the
Hall of Representatives at the ex-
pense of the architectural beauty as
well as other serious inconvenience.

SECRETARY RUSKS REPORT.

The annual report of Secretary Rusk
of the Department of Agriculture, is
the first of the cabinet documents Of
that nature to reach the public this
fall. 1t is an interesting document
and shows the beneficial work that
has been accomplished for the farmer
through the careful management of
its secretary. OF the 81 900, 600, 900
worth Of exports which left the United
States during the past fiscal year, Sec
rotary Rusk states that nearly so per
cent consisted of products of the farm,
and he claims that his department is
entitled to much credit for this splen-
did showing. And in this the Secre-
tary is undoubtedly correct. The re-
moval of the embargo upon American
pork in foreign markets led to
the expectation of &C, 100000 pounds of
pork, that would otherwise have re-
NAMED at home. The new inspection
laws which were passed through the
efforts Of the Department have great
ly helped the sale of our cattle
abroad, and so relieved to that extent
the oyersupply of the home market.
A very significant feature of the re-
port which fully demonstrates the
usefulness of the Department is the
statement therein that through the
efforts of the Department pleuro-pneu-
monia among American cattle has
been entirely eradicated. The Secre-
tary claims that this is the only coun-
try where such result has been
achieved when the disease has once
obtained a foothold This fact alone
is worth the cost of the Department
to the country.
On the question of rain-making by
artificial means, Secretary Rusk has
no faith, and therefore makes no rec
concentrations for an appropriation
for continued experiments. In all
probability this will end the efforts in
that direction. On the whole the
agricultural interests of the United
States are to be congratulated that
man with good practical common
sense was placed at the head of this
Department at its start, as work has
been laid out that is broad in its scope
and thorough in its application, and
those who follow him in its charge
have good foundation to work upon.
Mr.. Cleveland will have to be very
careful in his selection of Mr.. RuSk's
successor, in order that the high
standard inaugurated be maintained,
for if continued in the manner in
which it has been handled during the
past three years, the new Department
can be of much value to the farmers.

GROVER CLEVELAND has given it
out cold that he will not consider any
applications for office until after
March 4th, and that persons who ap-
ply before that time will not help
their case any by so doing. This caus-
ed CONSERVATION among the office
seekers and ward heelers of Democ-
racy, so that they did not know yes
terday whether they had anything to
be thankful for or not. And, by the
way, MIR. Cleveland has shown sort of
an indepenpence during the past few
days that is not relished by the Dem
ocratic bosses His speech at the Vii
lard dinner in which he said that there
were things more important to be
looked after than the peddling OF Of
fees is hardlywithin the grasp of that
class of his party who look upon the
division of the spoils as the principal
thing. In his remarks upon the Oc-
casion referred ito, Mr.. Cleveland
stated that the successor aparty de-
pended upon the faithful performance
of its pledges. This would indicate
that some of the features, at least, of
the Chicago platform will be car
ried out. But the independence
which Mr.. Cleveland has exhibited
does not necessarily mean that he will
adhere strictly to civil service rules
in the appointment of various federal
officials, though it may mean that in
spite of the pressure, he will be as de-
liberate as he was during his first ad-
ministration in making changes. The
independence which he has shown
during the past few days, undoubted-
ly means that in the future as in the
past he intends to put his judgment
up as little better than that of tho
rest of his party. And possible it is.

CONGRESSMAN HARTER, of Ohio, is
not going to be bothered with office
seekers during his official career. He
has prepared list of the offices to be

those whom he intends to appoint, so

enough to have his name thereon, he
receives no consideration.

THE Hon. Thos. B. Reed says that
the only hopeful thing about the

national platform.

MRS. ELAINE GOODALE EASTMAN,
writing upon the condition of the In
dians and the Indian Agent question,
says that most of the trouble is
brought about by correspondents who
write too much on what will happen.
She claims that the trouble two years
ago was the result of needless ex-
citement precipitated by newspaper
scares' and unwise management"
and thinks it is possible for the same
thing to happen again. She does not
think the Indians would be benefit
ted by being placed uuder the
control of the army, and says that
the Indians at PinesRidge have made
no genuine progress under military
rule. During the two years she has
been at Pine Ridge she says there has
been FIVE agents of whom two were
civilians and the other three army
officers. While the first two she class
eS as weak, she says she cannot con-
slider the last three as being stronger
There never has been so much dane
ing among the Indians there, she
states, as at present, and while out
wardly there has been much improve
ment at Pine Ridge, it is mostly in
the building line, and that the cOndi-
tion of the Indian has not improved.
If Mrs. Eastman's statements are cor
rect it would seem that no practical
work toward solving the Indian
problem has yet been done at Pine
Ridge.
