The War Departments Alleged Jobbery

Boston Republic.
Here is the simple story of a bit o
characteristic jobbery perPetrated b,
the officials of our war department:
In the early days of preparation fol
the campaign in Cuba. bids, or pro
posals. were solicited from manufac
turers or dealers for some 10000 oil
Ii. 900 pairs of army shoes. The de-
partment furnished elaborate specifi
cations, giving the sizes, quality, etc
The shoe manufacturing firm OF
Churchill & Alden, Brockton, Mass,
offered to manufacture and deliver
the entire lot at the rate of $2.1O pei
pair.
In the bidding this Brockton firm
had as one of its competitors John
Wanamaker, of New York and Phila-
delphia. Mr.. Wanamaker, who is an
extensive retailer of boots and shoes
offered to supply the army with shoes
made according to the specifications
for $2.S5 per pair. Mr.. Wanamake1
got the contract, not because he was
the lowest bidder. which he was not;
not because he had superior facilities
for manufacturing shoes, for he has
no facilities whatever, but because he
has pull" at the war department.
Mr.. Wanamaker, having secured this
contract, entered into an arrange
ment with Morse IL Rogers, of New
York, one of the largest jobbing shoe
firms in the country, to supply the
government. through him, with the
shoes described in the specifications.
Morse & Rogers are not manufacture
ers. They are simply jobbers or
wholesale dealers In order TO fill
Mr.. Wanamaker's order they were
compelled to enter into negotiations
with some well equipped shoe manu-
featuring firm or company to do the
work.
And so in due time the order to
manufacture the 10000 or 10000
pairs of army shoes came back to
Churchill & -.lJen, of Brockton, at
the original cost of $2.10. The war
department refused to accept the pro-
posals of Churchill * Alden Yet the
shoes were manufactured by these
gentlemen, after Mr.. Wanamaker and
the New York jobbers had received a
good profit from the transaction.
Let us assume that the order was
for 10000 pairs of shoes In that
case Mr.. Wanamaker made n clean
profit of $1,000. A portion of this
was, no doubt, given TO Morse &
Rogers for their services in finding
manufacturer. The government could
have saved IS, 900 by dealing directly
with Churchill & Alden. AS for the
taxpayers and poor soldiers, they
seem TO be entitled to no considera-
ton whatever

The Chicago Chronicle claims
already to have unearthed tn e plot OF
those patriots for profit only, Hanna,
Elkins, Alger and McCook, to gobble
up all the good things in Cuba. The
Chronicle alleges that when Senator
Proctor went to Cuba last winter, be-
fore war assumed a serious aspect, to
investigate the true situation there,
he acted as the prospecting agent of
this quartet, and after having dis
charged this duty, he took position,
which the high republican quartet
then for the first time fully acquiesced
in, that war would be a good thing
Thereafter the big four was enthusi-

Reducing Surpluses.

In the good old republican days
there used to be carried in the state
treasury SURPRISES which were kept
right at the $4,000, 900 mark. This
money republican officials loaned out
to banks and made about $75. 900 per
year out of it. 1t was a great snap
for the push. When the democratic
state administration took hold in 1892
it saw the enormity of the robbery
and at once stopped the big tax levies
which placed millions of the peoples
hard-earned money in the treasury
for conscienceless officials to speculate
with. During the four years of dem
ocratic rule the surplus of 81, 1898, pa
was reduced to 1926, $40. No better
or manlier record was ever made by
a political party than the democrats
on the surplus question. The repub-
lican party now says it is going to tax
the people to put the big surplus back
in the treasury for the push to specu-
late with. The people should rise up
en- masse to prevent it. Below we
give the cash balance in the state
treasury from 1889 to 1897. Look at
it. What grand democratic docu-
ment the figures make:
