The August Deficit.


The August record is now complete ana
the deficit is about fourteen million, three
hundred and fifty thousand dollars rms
is somewhat less than was indicated by
the figures in the middle of the month
High internal revenue receipts ana the
very low expenditures of the concluding
days of a summer month kept the hgure
down.
If the rate should be permanent, it would
give a deficit of about s154, 900. 600 for the
eleven months of Dingleyism in the cur
rent fiscal year. Subsequent years wouio
net about sl6s, 900. 900 deficit. There is
however, a likelihood that this full frui-
ton of prohibitive taxation will not be
realized. Sugar, wool and some other
commodities will in time begin TO produce
some revenue, and the annual deficit may
not prove higher han that of the recent
panic year, when the contraction of all
business checked imports and deprived
the Treasury of its legitimate resources.
Today, presumably, the deficit will ae-
uuire new vigor under the stimulus of the
payments always made at the opening OF
the month.
The Red Oak, etc., luminary of the
s.State Gazette considered yesterday an
appropriate time to emit another crow
over the working of the Dingley "sys-
tenn He gave another list of factories
which have as usual resumed work for
the fall season after the regular summer
shutdown. He flaps his wings over it at
a great rate. though he somewhat dubi-
ously remarks in, the close of his spasm
OF. hysteria.-
happy condition of things that warrants
us in growing, but we think there is, ana
that is the only reason why we DO IL.
IT is a fine thing to nave such a happy
disposition. To be able to find subject for
jubilation in anything and everything Is
indeed a happy condition. There is only
one thing that the State Gazette" fights
shy of. It has not tackled the deficit. Its
crows all ignore that little condition which
confronts us, and for the sense of decency
which saves it from making explanations
which do not explain. we are heartily
thankful.
The explanations" of the less careful
organs are really most disastrous to the
Republican theory of prosperity. In one
breath they tell us that it was the enor-
NOUS free trade importation of July that
cut off the August revenue, and in the
next they ask US to concede that the pro-
tective system of August has brought
prosperity with it. The logic of this may
appeal to a protectionist with great
force, but the man, who thinks connect
edly, VIII be more apt TO see in the free
trade fmportations of July the cause of
the stimulus to business, and in the pro-
hibitive rates of Dingleyism an all suffi-
Gent reason for the lack of revenue.

rhe Woman school Vote Amend
menG.

A considerable amount of typewriter
matter is being sent to the newspapers by
somebody who is anxious to la the
Women's School Suffrage amendment
adopted into the Constitution of the State.
The argument advanced is that the inter
ference of women in school affairs will
insure the election of better officers and
the exercise Of more and wiser super
vision.
It can only be said in reply, that this is
not the experience. Where women vote
on school questions, the schools are no
better than anywhere else, and there have
been an unusual number OF scandals,
largely growing put of the unscrupulous
treatment of women teachers by women
school officers. This expression, which we
quote from q document, just sent to The
News, The mothers are nearer to the
children and consequently nearest to the
schools" is an unmeaning generalization
catchy to the ear and vicious in its sug-
gestion. The true view of the case is that
the public schools are a huge business
machine. which can only be competently
managed by business people, that is to
say. by men.
Besides, the alleged motives behind this
school voting movement are not the true
ones. The movement is not sincere, on
the part of its main promoters. They care
very little about the schools. What they
want is a place in politics, with it's ex-
element and publicity. and they are using
this school humbug as an entering wedge.

of these are undeveloped. The com
