The Treasury Statement.

The treasury statement for July
shows deficiency OF thirteen millions
in the revenues. The public debt in.
creased ten millions and is now $685.
1882. The cash in the treasury is
classified as follows: Gold 150.502,
224; silver S514.61O.146; paper, e1C9.
978,190; bonds, disbursing officers
balances, etc, S17.263,1S4. against
which there are demand liabilities
amounting to S595.7O5, 274, leaving d
cash balance of 1856, 158.472. It will
be noted, says the Inter Mountain
Mining Review, that there are nearly
one hundred and seventy millions OF
paper money in the treasury. This
is the inevitable result of the manip-
ulntion of the gold reserve by Wall
street, by which the reserve is alter
nately exhausted in the redemptio,
Of treasury notes and replenished by
bond issues. Were it not for the de-
ticiency in the revenues there would
be much greater accumulation OF
currency in the treasury. The pres
emf absurd policy would, in the course
of time, withdraw all the treasur,
ne 'as from circulation and lock then
up u the National treasury. Wher
we fleet that one OF the great Ma
tiol ii parties has Endorsed this polio!
and that it is approved by nearly o.
quite one-half Of the voters, grave
doubts arise as to the capacity o
the American people for self-govein
j merit.

Gazette yesterday stating that Hon

statement is not credited by the
Journal which says: Mr.. Winters is
not Janus-faced in politics or any
thing else, and Mr.. Winters expressed
himself as being pleased with the
Chicago nominees to many friends in
Reno. The inference Is that he said he
would not vote for Mckinley.

there will be such revival in bust

spoken by the Rev. DR.. Il. de Witt
Talmage at East Hampton, L. l.,
after long tour of the Southern
States.
Every vote for Mckinley will count
LII favor of more taxes in time of
peace; ct high tariff walls against

materials now free for our factories,
and of dearer necessities and com

people. Hrmbug promises of pros
