THE QUESTION or REVENUE.

When the smoke of the political battle
shall have cleared away and the public
attention can be directed to some other
question than that of the currency, the
matter of more revenue for the govern
ment is likely 10 receive greater con
sidcration than has been accorded it dur
ing the campaign. Indeed, for the past
three months it has received scarcely
any attention from the people The
republican presidential candidate has
frequently referred TO it as Il question of
commanding Importance, but it has been
utterly ignored by the opposition, for the
obvious reason that it could not be dis
cussed without disclosing the utter in
adequacy of the present economic
system. Yet each month has recorded II
treasury deficit, that for October amount
ing to $7,50o,O0O.
This condition of affairs can
not be allowed TO go on indefinitely The
necessity of providing sufficient revenue
to enable the government to meet its
| current expenditures is imperative. The
credit of the government is dependent
upon It, There will probably be nothing
done by the present congress- The same
influence that thwarted the effort of the
house ut the first session to provide more
revenue will dominate the senate and
defeat any further attempt, should 1t

therefore that monthly deficits will con
