TREASURY RECEIPTS.
How They Come in Under the New Tariff
Law.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-The first month >
,ece pts of the treasury department, under
the operation of the new tariff law, aggre-
gate S22, ,62l ,2es, as compared with $24,-
6S2 275 for Septt mber, 1898 The receipts
for September, 1894, were about $lS ,000,-
0O0 les than for August, 1894, when re-
ceipts from internal revenue assumed
sbnormal proportions, because of the large
~iGhdrawals of whiskey, in anticipation of
the increased tax of 20 cents a gallon
According to the estimates upon which the
new tariff bill was based, it was to produce,
from sugar $43 100000 a year, from the
iccome tax placed at minimum figure,
Sl5 600 year. No revenue from either of
these sources was shown in the receipts for
September as income tax does not become
ops rative until January l, and three or four
months supply of sugar was imported
prior to the new law in anticipation of this
ad valorem tax placed upon it. Upon the
basis of the estimates upon which the tariff
bill was framed the revenue from these
two principal sources of customs and inter
nal revenue is put at Sl79, 900, 900 a yeai
each. For three months of the present
fiscal year the total receipts were $97, ,S48,-
ia against $40 ,379, Az the CORE spending
month of 1898. OF the receipts for the
current fiscal year to date
S35, ,797 ,243 has been from Gus
toms and S5S 944,9lG from internal
rtvtnue. From present indications, when
the revenue from sugar and the income tax
begirs to be received and customs snl in
,ernal revenue receipts assume a nc-mal
condition as they are now gradually doing,
rho eurnl1ls for the fscsl ypnr will be be-
rween S5O.000 900 and $50 coo 600 at the
present ratio existing between receipts and
expenditures i. indicated. For tie current
year to date the expenditures exceed th.
receipts less than a million dollars.

lish medium, who has 80 startled the
scientific men In all parts Of the world by
her marvellous experiments, Is making q
summer tour Of the lakes and Is going to
stop over In Alpena and give a religious
illustrated lecture on spiritualism and
theosophy at the Opera House on Sunday
evening next.
She Is in many respects remarkable
woman. The peculiar gift she possesses
has made her admitted to familiarity
with great scientists and made her sought
OF by the thoughtful and curious. She
claims to have raised the subject to a
scientific plane, and scorning the conven-
tional and transparent method OF others,
she courts an intelligent consideration Of
her manifestations. In her seance ma
terialization Of spirit forms, hands and
faces take place, music will be made and
tables will float in mid air. Flowers will
be materlalized and many other strange
and wonderful things will occur entirely
new; and as Miss Fay does all this In the
fullest possible gas light 1t will be well

A Public Nuisance.

Has the city formed partnership with
fakirs to fleece the simple minded people
in the city? II 80, In the division OF the
plumber the city receives but precious
little. This week there are several fakirs'
in town who are allowed to prey on the
people, and they are reaplng rich har-
vest. Although times are hard and work
and money are scarce, smokers we're never
as numerous, or these faklrs now I'm the
city would not take In hundreds Of dollars
every evening. We do not wonder at the
ease with which the fakir can induce PEG.
pie to literally throw away the money
they need for necessaries OF life. There
Is certain class who like to be gulled,
and every glib tongued fakir always
plucks them. We do not think the city
is doing justice when, for the sum Of FIVE
dollars, 1t allows fakir to erect an OBJ
struction on one of the business streets
and sell trash to the amount of hundred
dollars per night, and we protest against
any such action on the part of the city.
The duty Of the city Is TO labor for the
benefit OF tho people Of Alpena, and not
for some unknown Individual who has
done nothing to maintain the city, and
whose principal object In life Is to make
an easy living without manual labor.
The streets are for travel and the con-
yenience Of the public. They were never
intended to be used as places for tempo
rary stores, and II any damage is done by
person or team colliding against the
obstruction now on River street, the tax
payers Of Alpena will have to pay the
bills.
II possible the licenses now In force
should be annulled, and hereafter let the
city officers, whose duties II Is to look
after such affairs, refuse to issue license
to fakir OF any kind. They were elected
to serve the people Of Alpena, and not
the fakirs.
