SQUARiNG ACCOUNTS.
The Republican fioodie- Fund Producers
Now In Evidence.


Those who chuckled and chortled

over the big doodle fund the republic
ans were raising ito fight the devil with
fire" are about to indulge in the less
pleasing but Inevitable exercise OF
laughing on he other side of the mouth.
The Doodle fund business is IL matter of

who pays down his money to help buy
an election expects a return with in
tercSt after the election is won. At the
hearing on tariff schedules before the
ways and means committee the first in
stallment of the huge debt Ia the sub
scrihers to the unnecessary aud cor
rupting republican campaign fund of
nearly S2.OOo,OO0 falls due, will be pre-
scented for payment and will be paid.
The first installment is pretty big. as
II includes the indebtedness 10 all the
protected pools, trusts nnd nlcnopolies.
But this is by no means all or even half
of the full debt. Indeed, the debt is so
big that IL is doubtful whether IL can
all be paid. And the attempt to pay will
almost certainly cost the party its hold
on the government.
But the party must do its best. These
debts TO campaign contributors are
