HERE AND EVERYWHERE.

A display advertisement appeared in
a prominent Pittsburg paper last Sun
day, without any spaces or lines.
Among the curious features was the
following: Every resident of the two
cities should hear Sousa, the wonderful
educated horse. Of course it is under
stood that the great band leader and
the educated equine were features at
the Pittsburg Exposition.
Thos. Kane, one of the managers and
owners of the Gonzalez Opera Company,
now in this city, is quite as clever at
repartee as he is as an operate prOmOt-
er He had an applicant for a position
as chorus girl last winter, and the
Would-be operate songstress gave an
exhibition of her vocal abilities. Mr..
Kane shook his head and refused to en-
gage her. The young thing was sur
prised and said: Ami | not good?"
Mr.. Kane replied in an instant, Yes
you are not good
That reminds me of the story of Mike
Kelly, the base ball player. Some time
ago he umpired a game of ball in Chi
cago, but not entirely to the satisfac-
ton of all. One of the DIRECTORS said:
why, O'Keefe can umpire better than
Kelly" and an admirer of the great
fielder replied: Like Kelly can" One

mention. Eyes open to impressions of
the streets will give many an oppor-

THE TREASURY FIGURES.

The treasury report for December
enables us to take a survey OF the gov-
ernments finances for the calendar
year. and for the first half ~ the pres.
ent fiscal year, Such an examination is
OF Importance for the particular reason
that It throws light on the problem
which congress must solve, by demon
strating what is needed IN the way ~
increased revenue. Men may differ as
to the method OF obtaining this, but
they naturally agree as to the necessity
OF more money in the governmental
strong box; and the first question to be
determined is, how much Increase Is
necessary
The December report, on its face.
shows surplus OF $500. 900; but 1t is
clear that this has been forced by post
poning the payment OF every treasury
obligation possible. These will be met
in January, and add to the deficiency
which this months figures will un-
doubtedly show. But for the six months
OF the fiscal year there is deficit OF
over $50. 900. 900. which is more than dou-
BILE the deficit for the first six months
OF the previous fiscal year. which was
over $l5.OOo.00o, This increase is due
both to increased expenditures and di.
minished receipts.
Taking the calendar year as a whole.
we find the treasury condition has been
growing worse instead of better. The
deficit for the twelve months OF 1896
is over $4,000, 600, OF which four-fifths
was accumulated during fhe last half
OF the year. A partial explanation Of
this is that the holly contested presi-
dentisl campaign paralyEed business
during the summer months. thus dimin-
ishing the treasury receipts: and in
creased expenditures for the fiscal year
beginning on July were a necessity
because the cheeSe-paring appropria-
tions OF the previous congress ignored
many things which had TO be met by
the appropriations for this fiscal year.
The showing proves the need OF early
legislation to relieve the treasury. and
emphasizes the wisdom OF the determi-
nation Of President-elect Mckinley TO
convene congress in extra session 10
legislate on revenue matters.

The New York Tribune is generally a
pretty good guide for the rural Repub-
lican press to follow on national ques-
tions. and when the Tribune advocates
the ratification Of the new treaty with
Great Britain IL is reasonably probable
that the treaty is all right. There are,
however, two or three reasons why
those who are Republicans from convic-
ton. and who like to exercise the inde-
pendence Of thought which is and
should be characteristic Of the men,
bers Of that party, would like to see
the treaty carefully and deliberately
considered by the senate before it is
finally adooted. In the first place, II
is not easy to overcome the traditional
Difference which most people in this
country have always paid to George
Washington's warning against entang-
ling alliances with foreign govern
ments; for however much Mr.. Olney
and other friends Of the treaty may
deny that construction, the treaty un-
questionably tends to commit us TO an
alliance both offensive and defensive
rtth Great Britain. and when the occa-
non arises IT is this Interpretation
which will be contended for and per-
haps ultimately conceded to it. An
other reason why an old fashioned Re
publican is apt to shake his head over
the treaty is the effect it must have
in divorcing the friendly relations sub
sisting so long between this country
and Russia; and it does not help to
quiet this view of the case, when it

Nine years ago an internal revenue
tax was imposed on oleomargarine.
There was no pretense that the tax was
Imposed from any necessity Of revenue
at that time. 1t was simply done at the
demand of the dairymen. because the
extended use Of oleomargarfne threat
ened to reduce the price Of butter It
vas intended to crush out the manufac-
ture OF the new product. But the nine
years experience under the tax shows
that the result has not been attained.
People prefer good oleomargarine TO
poor butter The first official report Of
the internal revenue department on
this product was for 1888 which showed
that 80, 2,667.755 pounds were made and
sold that year. In 1893 It had risen to
s5,0s1. us pounds-about double that Of
the first year under the tax. The tide
begun TO turn in 1895. when the total
product was 5S.264.475 pounds. For the
fiscal year ended June 30 last, it was
only 50,s53. 900 pounds. There is but one
explanation Of this-that the increased
production of oleomargarine forced
down the price Of butter, and that this
diminished consumption Of the artificial
product
