Extravaganza in Navy Department.

Washington, October 21.-Secretary
Long has become deeply concerned at
what he regards as the very large ex-
penditure made by the Navy Department.
on account Of repairs to ships. In spe-
clal cases these allOtments OF funds are
particularly heavy and out of all pro-
portion, in the opinion Of the Secretary,
to what they should be. 1t Is felt to
be singular that within q few weeks
after the commission of a brand new
ship she should be tied up to a wharf
in a navy yard for extensive alterations
under the gulse Of repairs These
changes for they are not repairs in the
true sense, are made on the suggestion
Of various officers, and the sum total
Of the expenditures on that account has
grown to be so large that Secretary Long
has been impelled to issue q circular f0r
the guidance Of all officers. It says:
"The department finding that the eX-
penditures for repairs to vessels in COM
mission, especially those Of the home
stations, Is excessive, enjoins upon all
persons having duties to perform in con-
nection Herewith the exercise of strict
economy and careful compliance with
the naval regulations relative to preser-
walton and repairs Of ships. Naval
contractors and steam engineers will
exercise the utmost care In estimates
for the cost of labor and reducing the
actual expenses therefor, which often
appear to be excessive"

to but the small total OF $1S,6O2. This
distinguished American belonged to that
older and better type Of Americans in
public life who priced the dignity and
honor Of faithful public service above
the opportunities for dubious methods
of money making attaching thereto dur
ing the past twenty years or more. To
serve the people OF this country he gave
up a career in the law which, If followed,
would have made him a wealthy man.
He was for many years distinguished
figure in the political history of the
United States a member of two Pres
identlal Cabinets, and more than once
a prominent candidate for the Presiden-
tial nomination before successive Re-
publican conventions. His ability and
his fidelity to the peoples interest were
never doubted. The amount Of his es-
tate represents savings that are sur
passed in aggregate by those Of many
frugal and Industrious clerks in this
country And yet 1t stood for all that
a man equally frugal and industrius had
been able to accumulate in life Of
notable public service.

HEAR A REPUBLICAN HOWL.

In this prosperous year it sounds
strange to hear the howl Of a man or
paper that supported Mckinley and Ho-
bart. But here we have it. Under the
head Revise the Tax Laws" the En-
poria Republican says:
1--WE see no way to get at the unjust
laws now upon our statute books except
by a deliberate and thorough revision of
them at the hands of commission. They
never can be made even approximately
Just and harmonious by the legislature.
In this matter Of taxation it is fatal to
wait until all is lost before commencing
the application Of the remedy. The
homes Of the people are at stake. The
business of the country is trembling in
the balance. The demand for labor is
growing less and less. AS valuations
decrease the burdens of taxation in
crease. The end will be complete col
lapse a letting go of all holds and
every species of property that cannot be
hid from a lynx-eyed assessor, backed by
a robber law. Already the desire to con-
ceal property from taxation is universal.
Men will perjure themselves to conceal
it. Property that cannot be concealed
from taxation is not so desirable as
property that can be. Hence, all visible
property will go down first. Business
men will have to make an inventory
the 1st of March under the eye of petty
official and pay taxes on the full amount.
Search warrants will be issued. Ward
robes, old closets and trunks, even your
wife's pocket Qf it can be found will
be examined in the search for taxable
property. Yet, we elect persons to the
Legislature to do as they please"

these men? Would Sheriff Martin have
entrusted a case of that kind to any but
true and tried Republicans?
What was the politics of the mob of
PinkertOns at Homestead? What has
been the politics of men that have COM
posed all the mobs hired to suppress
labor strikes?
And within sixty days a mob of Cen
eral Harrisons neighbors. at or near
Versailles, lynched five men, already
safely in custody of the law officers,
accused of theft and burglary, and the
Advocate will venture a guess that If
the lynchers are ever found and brought
to trial and their politics ascertained, 1t
will be discovered that majority Of
them belong to the party that made
President of General Harrison.

PROSPERITY rs STRIKING IN ON
THEM,

Bradstreet's: while the general trade
movement is somewhat irregular and
there are further evidences Of falling off
in demand and volume, business con-
tinues of large proportions. Speculation
in wool has ceased and demand for the
staple is less than for weeks past. Cotton
goods are dull on the weakness of raw
cotton, and jObbers report dry goods
slower than a week ago. Interior mer-
chants in the central West have not dis
tributed fall stocks as promptly as ex-
pected, and many jobbers at Western
centers find that they overestimated the
consumptive demand when securing fall
goods"
r. G. Dun & Co.: after the heaviest
buying known in many branches in Sep
tember it was natural and desirable
that more quiet period should give
time for testing the size and temper OF
the retail trade and for distributing
part Of the enormous quantities bought.
In textile goods the rush of orders went
far beyond all distributive demand in
August and prevented great replenish-
ment of stocks and the similar rush for
goods has been correspOndingly great
in other lines during the past two
months. In iron and steel and in boots
and shoes there was actual danger of
a speculative imitation of prices, such as
was seen in 1895, but it has been avoided
apparently for this season by the solid
sense of leading business men, who re-
gard time of comparative quiet as essen
tial to the coming and permanence of
prosperity in their lines AS the buying
for replenishment is partially satisfied
and diminishes there is some decrease
in the volume Of transactions"
