An interview with State Treasurer
Kendall, published in this mornings
Charleston's dispatches, gives that off,
Gals views upon the appropriations
made by the recent session Of the leg
fslature. He sees from his point OF
view that the total amount appropri-
ated for the next two years. which Is
unprecedented. without provisions for
revenues to cover the increase, is likely
to produce a deficit in the state funds
before the next legislature meets. The
statement OF the treasurer is, In his
opinion, necessary at this time, in or
der that the public mind may under
stand what may develop MS conse-
quence, should 1t occur. and the reasons
therefor.
The interview speaks for itself. 1t
seems that the big appropriation bill for
the two years was constructed without
considering the amount Of revenues for
the two years to come, and calculating
the danger of deficit. Notwithstanding
the estimates and reports OF the condi-
ton OF the treasury. That condition
was and is splendid and never was bet

the limit. not only OF the surplus OF

/ One Of the peculiar features about the
Cuban army, according to the report
submitted by General Gomez to Gen.
'eral Brooke, preparatory to the distrib-
iution OF 100000 pay among the men,
Is THAT 1t ls estimated to contain $4,000
soldiers, only $4,000 Of whom are prI-
Yates. The 10000 remaining are Off
GERS. or an average Of Just one officer
to every two priyates. 1t Is no wonder
that this statement, which seems to be
based on general statistics unsupported
by actual rolls. Is regarded by General
Brooke as insufficient as basis for
payment.
General Brooke desires to know the
location Of the soldiers. He might also
,pertinently inquire as to why 1t is that
there is such great preponderance
OF surviving oflicers-equal. in fact, to
jast one. half the number OF surviving
private. General Gomez doubtless Is
sincere in his estimate, but II It is true,
the figures may suggest to American
army experts. that possibly the fact
that one Of the reasons why the insur-
rection was SO long drawn out, and
satisfactory results were not attained
until the United States stepped in and
settled 1t in a short time, may be found
in the big surplus Of surviving officers.
They do not seem to have done much
Of the real fighting, else how could 1t
be that one-third Of the survivors OF an
army that saw all the }terrors OF such
q war as the Cuban rebellion was, and
suffered such fearful, cruel losses,
should be officers. 5000 OF them COM
missloned and 10000 OF them non-com-

from taking his seat in, the United

paper contained q Washington dispatch

that Mr.. McGraw has been In daily con-

Thus We have 1t; and it is n remarkc-

with his protest against Mr.. Scotts title
TO the seat or the legality OF his election
is not explained. The protest goes be-
fore the senate as 1t will be construct

President nor the war department.
The whole country is not aroused
over this matter, which will be settled

Not Exactly Consistent.

1t Ia one of the remarkable features
OF note In current events that the news
paper editors and statesmen who are
at this time complaining of the amount
of the appropriations made by the late
Congress In It's two years Of existence,
and denounclng the administration and
Congress for extravaganza. comprised
the identical elements that were howl
Ing for war, and denouncing the admin
istration and the majority in Congress
standing by the Executive. because they
were trying to avert the emergency
through peace measures.
The policy that these elements pur-
sued brought about the conditions
which have required tremendous ex-
penditures. and will cause the expendi-
ture Of greater amounts. They should
be the last to complain II the bills OF
expenses, added to the ordinary appro-
priations, and provisions for the devel-
opment Of the commercial and indus
trial resources of the country, aggregate
more than'they politically and for par
ty effect expected.
