IT is said that the coming session OF
Congress will make appropriations
amounting to one billion dollars. That
means sum equal to about SO for
every man. woman and child in the
United States. The family of seven
represents hundred dollar bill in
the national expenditure. Yet who
takes note of the prodigality of the
time, and the corruption it induces?
You even find some damphools who
exult in extravagant expenditure by
government and think it good thing
for Uncle Sam to "scatter the money
around" ''we all stand chance to get
some of it." The d. p. doesn't seem to
know that the people, In the end, foot
all the bills, and that those who are

PROSPERITY of the gold standard
brand seems to be striking all around
in spots. Georgia got dose of it las'

don't seem to have any regard for ''the
