WASHINGTON. March Z, 1899.

The eXtravagant apprOpria
tionS-mOre than billion and Il
halI-made by the ity-tfth
Congress, now happily dead,
would a few years ago have been
sufficient to drive any political
party from power. Only ten
years ago a billion dollar Con-
greSs drove the Republicans ont
and put the Democrats in. But
it is easy to educate men into not
only cOndoning public eXtrava,
gence, but into commencing it,
especially if some of the money
be spent i'll a way to give them
some personal profit. The war is
the excuse for the large total
of the appropriation, but it is not
a valid one, and it should be the
duty of every man opposed to
public extravaganza to appoint
himself committee of one, to
see that no man with whom he
comes i'll contact shall accept
that excuse for lack of the actual
facts. With every appropriation
connected with the war deducted.
the appropriation made by the
Fifty-titth Congress would still he
largely i'll excess Of those made
by any Congress in history. Keep
this fact i'll your own mind and
i'll the minds of others, and a
Congress and a President may he
elected next year to check the
era of extravaganza into which
we have drifted.
There has been more or less
talk i'll certain quarters about the
anxiety of Secretary Long to get
rid of the cares of office, but it
should cease now. His accept
ance of the humiliation Mr.. Nc
Kinley placed upon him when he
compelled him to do justice to
Schley by preparing an entire
ly new list of naval promotions,
which made Schley a Rear Admi-
raj, two numbers ahead of Samp-
son, instead of two numbers be.
hind him, as the original nomina.
tions had been was proof enough
that he will not willingly relin-
quiSh the naval portfolio. Mr..
Mckinley acted because he saw
that the administration was
catching it in every direction for
its attempt to jump Sampson over
Schley's head, and that the Sen.
ate had baked on the n0mina
tiOnS. The new nominations
were confirmed by the Senate, as
soon as received, just as was that
OF Dewey to be Admiral.
In refusing to take up the reSo-
luton unanimously reported from
the Judiciary Committee, declar
ing that the four members of the
House who accepted army com
missions, thereby forfeited their
seats in Congress, the House
merely accepted an opportunity
to pay General Joseph Wheeler a
high compliment, by dodging a
vote that must have been in favor
of the resolution had it been
taken. Representative Bailey.

light and formally announced
that as the Democrats had declin.

forcing a plain clause of the Con.
stitution, he would not be a can.
dldate for that leadership in the
next Congress.
Senator Platt, of Conn, struck
the BULBS eye of truth when he
told the Senate few hours be-
fore the final adjournment, that
the session of Congress just then
closing would go on record as the
most extravagant ever held. but
