THE TREASURY DEFICIT.

While private business of all kinds
Is eteadEy improving, the fiscal affairs Of
the government are still in bad condition,
and even the most sanghne government
officials must shortly at1mtt that some
ouher expedient than the present mongrA
tariff must be adopted To supply an i'm
come adequate 10 uhe ordinary expenses
of the administration. A statement of
receipts from customs in the month of
July since 1857 SHOWS that they have
not dn tine eight years been 50 low as
they viii be for the current month, and
yet fmportatlons are on a larger scale.
Under the Mckinley act the lowest re-
eeiPts Tor July were in 1885, when they
amounted Ito very nearly $S1, ,0OO, 900. There
has not been July since 1886 in which
the receipts did not exceed $4,000, 900, 80
that this all Will slIuw the worst record
In fun decade or more. The excess OF
expenditures over receipts this month
VITA probably be not far from $l5,OOOOOO.
TrIere is nothing Ito marrant expectation
OF an increase of revenue during the
succeeding Ave months OF 1895, or at any
rate not such an increase as will bring
It up ito expenditures. The latter will not
be so large as for July, SO that the month
iy ueficHt win be less, but that there will
be a deticst may be regarded as certain.
II is pretty safe to say that when cbn-
giess meets early In December II will be
confronted by the fact uhaH the receipts
OF The ltreasury have run behind expendi-
lures during the first Ave months of the
hscal year to the amount Of at least
Sio.OOo,OoO, with the outlook MO better then
tran now for receipts nvertalulng expendi-
tures. II appears that some of the treas
nry officials, including, perhaps, secreta-
~ Carlisle. still hope that there will be
a change which Will render unnecessary
nny Recommendation to congress of means
tor providing more revenue, but Il is not
easy Ito see upon what they are building
the hoTe. unless 1t be the expectation of
greater flood Of importations. There is
no reason TO expect any material IN
crease Of income from internal taxes.
Can any further demonstration than
what Has been given during THE cieven
months of the operation of the present
tariff law be necessary no prove HhAt as
a revenue MEASURE 1t is a most complete
fatlure7 Is the fact THAT tuhe receipts for
this mOnuh win be less by from S,OOO,OOO
to s6,oOO,OOO than they were in July of
lust year. under the Mckinley law, not
conclusive evidence OF the infenority OF
the existing act 80 far as providing the
government with revenue is concerned?
Certainly there can be no question as 20
this. and yet Democratic administration

ter Of the wheel, and through this pipe
the water is forced in a continuous
stream.
"Ail of the work ON the wheel is rough
and ready, but the principle of the thing
was new to me. The maker of the wheel
told me That a wheel eight feet In dia-
uneter would raise water through a two
and haIf inch pipe to height of 20
feet. The height to which 1t is raised de-
pends upon tahe number of coils in the
interior OF the wheel. The wheel saw
was covered with Russian dron sheeting
so as to make 1t air tight except for the
opening at the offset, and suppose that
compressed air has much to do with
forcing the wlter so far above the SUI
face. A good feature of the wheel is
that 1t need not he permanently fixed
anywhere. 1t is set between two scows
and therefore rises and fails with the
current. 1t was well worth while going
a good distance to see 1t work" k."-Chey-
