More Than Keeping Even.

Despite the predictions of the Demo-
Gratis few years ogo tho Government
revenue thus far during the present fiscal
year has exceeded The Government ex-
pense. No wonder the opponents of the
Republican party aud of the policy of
protection turn from the question of tar
itf and begin bowling about the trusts.
They deceived the people in 1896 with
their lies, and now in an effort to divert
the public mind from those lies they
howl about something else. At the end
of the first quarter of the fiscal wear a
surplus of s., 100000 is shown. The Gov
ernment revenue for the three months
has been Sl7, 100000 more than what it
was during the same period of last year,
and the expenditures have fallen to $45,-
OOO,0OO. The customs are yielding from
$500, 900 to S1,OOO,OOO day, and internal
revenue nets 81 100000 each day, both
showing an aggregate gain over the same
period of last year of IS, 100000. The War
Department is spending an average Of
Sl2,5QO, 600 each month, while the month
ly expense ofour navy is s5,OOO,OOO. We
are carrying on war on the other side
OF the world where we ere taking care of
a great army of American soldiers as no
nation has ever cared for its soldiers b
fore; we are adding battle ships, cruisers
and torpedo boats to the navy in a man
ner that is attracting the attention of all
nations, and yet we show a cash balance
and surplus for the past three months,
the first quarter of the new fcal year.
More and more each day is the proof
furnished that the protective tariff that
bears the name of the late Mr.. Dingley,
one of the greatest and brains statesmen
America ever produced, is fully capable
ofproviding for all the expenses of our
Government in times of peace, and more
and more each day is it being demonstra-
ted that the finances of this country were
never in better hands.-Des Moines State
Register.

AGUINALDo will scan the election
news from the United States four weeks
hence with good deal of interest. A
victory for his friends the Democrats in
the states which vote this year would
nerve the rebel chief to make some fierce
fights against the Americans. 1t might,
in fact, make him believe that he would
yet have a chance to burn Manila and
massacre all its white inhabitants. Otis
army, backed by the Republican party
of the United States, has bafiled Aguinal-
do in his schemes of rapine and blood
thus far, but victory for John McLeon
and for Bryan's ticket in Nebraska
would lead him TO think that his friends
were coming into power and that his day
of triumph was near.

Tho withdrawal,of Josiah r. Adams from
the Republican State ticket as the can
didate for Superior Judge last Thursday,
on account of newspaper charges serious
ly affecting his character and fitness. and
the substitution of John /. Mitchell of
Tio2a county to fill the vacancy thus
caused, has been the sensation of the
week in politics. Whether true or not,
the charges of being associated in busi-
ness with men who have since turned
out to be of rather odious character, in
duced Mr.. Adams to withdraw from the
ticket in order, as he said, to relieve the
party from any embarrassmentin his con-
tinuation as candle date might bring.
The State committee was called together
AZ Philadelphia on Saturday and un-
amin usly chose Judge Mitchell to fill
the vacancy. His candidacy will strength
EN- the ticket because of his well known
fitness, ability and clean official record.
The incident is closed, automatically
speaking, and Judge Mitchell and the
whole Republican ticket will be elected
by little less than 100000 majority.

affairs will be conscientiously and honest
ly administered. Stand by them when
you cast your ballots and you may rest
assured you will have made no mistake.
FOR COUNTY AUDITORS
The candidates are James r. Clark
and George i. King. To those who
know them these gentlemen need mo
recommendation for the Offices for which
the partly has unanimously nominated
them. Mr.. Clark has very acceptably
filled the position for three years past,
and we believe hts colleagues on the
board will bear us out in saying that he
is the right man in the right place. Mr.,
King is a shrewd young business man, a
good accountant, and may be depended
ON to do his duty with fidelity. There
will be no laxness in the discharge of
their WORK with these two competent
men on the board of County Auditors.
They should be elected by good ma
jorities.
FOR JURY COMMISSIONER.
Levi G. Reynolds is the Republican
nominee. Mr.. Reynolds has been a lie-
long resident of the county, staunch
Republican and will make a good Of
fetal. He is sure of the election, there
being two to elect, and each voter being
privileged to vote for only one, and the
people willIbe well satisfied with his Of
fetal acts.
Is is the duty of every Republican first,
to vote the ticket straight, second to put
his shoulder 10 the wheel and, in every
honorable way, assist in rolling up an old
fashioned majority for every individual
on tie ticket. The Republican party de-
serves the credit of bringing about the
splendid prosperity which the country
is now enjoying, and in order to per-
petuate and continue that prosperity it is
necessary to stand by the party's nomi-
nees, not only in State and National af-
fairs, but in county matters as well. No
party can long exist if the individual
members persist in knitting the local
ticket. There's where the wider field of
politics springs from, and there is the
place to show your Republicanism. Try
to sink personal dislike if you have any,
and stand by the candidates of the party
as you would want them to stand by you
under like circumstances. Be loyal to
your party at all times, and especially so
when its candidates are being assailed
by the common enemy, who, when you
help them to an Office will turn on you or
you friends at tho first opportunity and
crush you if they can. Stand by the
ticket.
