THE GOVERNMENTS FINANCES
& Statement OF Receipts and Expcnd-
ftures for August.

The receipts of the Government for the
month of August amounted to s49,97S, 173.
of which $50. .546 697 was derived from GUS
toms, s24, ,297 O39 from internal revenue
taxes. and $5.194,4S7 from miscellaneous
sources. The receipts exceeded the expec-
tations of the Treasury Department off
cials and, moreover, the balance in favor of
the Government of 81, 455, ,S61 of receipts
over expenditures for the month was
surprise. a part of this balance on the
credit side of the Governments account
was due to the payment Of more than
S3,0000 900 for the New York custom house
property by the National City Bank. The
expenditures on account of the military es-
tablishment during the month aggregated
S14.9S1. 800, the next largest item of Gov
ernment expense being S1S, 1876, 335 for pen
sions. The receipts for the month OF Au-
gust were larger by more than $4,000. 600
than in August, 1898. The expenditures
were about $11 900 600 less last month than
in the same month of 1898.

INSPECTORS OF BEER.
Increased Consumption May Make
Such Officials Necessary.

Increased Consumption May Make
Such officials Necessary.
Government officials connected with the
Internal Revenue and Attorney Generals
Departments are at the present time con-
sdering the advisability Of urging upon
Congress the necessity OF appointing Gov
ernment inspectors of beer and other malt
drinks. This action is looked upon as ad-
visable in view of the increased consump-
ton of beer in the United States. In fact,
beer is now regarded as the national drink
by those who have kept familiar with sta
tistics on the subject. This fact, however.
is not regarded as indicative OF increased
degeneracy, but the claim is made that
with the increased consumption of beer
there is a decrease in the stronger aleo-
holic drinks, and the change is regarded as
beneficial both from hygienic and moral
standpoint
With the increased use of beer there is
likely to be tendency toward adulteration,
and the Government officers believe that
the example of Germany should be followed
in this respect and regularly authorized in
spectors employed.

CLOSING UP THE WORK.
Duties of the Porto Rican Relief
Committee Nearly Ended.

Duties OF the Porto Rican Relief
Committee Nearly Ended.
Colonel Wright, of the Porto Rican re-
lief committee, in charge of the headquar-
ters in the Inter Ocean Building, expects
to have all contributions from this city in
the hands of the committee by II o'clock
today. Churches have been asked to send
in contributions from members at that
time. The work of the committee will
practically cease at noon today, and arti-
cles sent in after that time will be delayed
in shipment TO Porto Rico A contribution
was received yesterday from the New York
Avenue Presbyterian Church. In response
TO an appeal made by Bishop Blenk, Right
Reverend Bishop Of Porto Rico, who is
now in the United States, Cardinal Gibbons
has ordered a special collection to be taken
in the Catholic churches on Sunday,
September 10. Bishop Blenk will take
charge of all money collected and will
apply ii to the purchase of food and other
necessary supplies. Some money will be
sent to the town authorities in the island,
and it is said that better advantage can
be made by local people than by those who
may not understand the conditions.
Cardinal Gibbons appeal is taken from
the following extract of a letter from
Bishop Blenk, and is as follows:
The whole world has read Of the awful calam.
ity which has befallen the Island of Porto Rico
within the last week As Bishop Of nearly l,00O,-
900 souls, as father of this afflicted people, am
deeply grieyed. and my heart is sad when l read
the accounts OF misery and want sent me by my
priests.
The Government, through the Secretary of War.
has already shown its practical sympathy with
the sufferers. The Church in this country must
not be less interested in the Catholics of the
island than is the Government in its citizens.
Porto Rico IS Catholic, and naturally locks hence
forth to the Catholics of America.
We all know that to relieve the unhappy and
give aid to the needy is a distinctly Catholic
virtue; TO give relief TO this cause is to join the
highest type Of patriotism to the fairest form OF
to gain the hearts of the people by kindness and
sympathy, and the present is an exceptionally
favorable moment TO do so, to win over forever
to American citizenship and Catholic brotherhood
the much-tried inhabitants of Porto Rico.

District GuDrG.
Capt. F. f. Eastman, who was appointed
adjutant general of the National Guard
of the District of Columbia, reported for

He was then appointed adjutant general

the only bank in Lamoille County was
compelled to reduce it's capital from
$3.50, ZOO TO 100000 because it could
not loan its money. Why? Simply
because the people felt no safety in
entering upon any enterprise during
times of monetary strlngency and
when finances was consequently alb
solutely essential. But whep the bus
mess enterprises of Lamoille County
came to know that money on good
security could always be obtained at
the Lamoille County Savings Bank
and Trust Co. with as much certainty
as corn or -four could be had at Chica
go they branched out into enterprises
which have made the villages Of La
noble County noteworthy for their
enterprise and thrift. The $1OO,OO
banking capital of Lamoille County
in 1886 has continued to grow until to :
day the assets of the two banks in the
little village Of Hyde Park-the La
noble County Savings Bank and Trust
Co., and the Lamoille county National
Bank-aggregate 1927, 1926.
The unlimited confidence of the
people in Northern Vermont in this
institution is shown by the fact that
during the panics of 1913 to '96. while
large majority of the banks of Yer
mont were making considerable loss
es in their deposits, this bank contin
ued to grow, never for once failing to
show an increase in deposits at the
end of each semi-annual period. We
think we voice the sentiments of
every industry in this locality as we'll as
of the citizens of our county as a
whole, when we extend to this bank
and it's managers our most sincere
and hearty congratulations upon
reaching it's anniversary with such an
exceptionally fine record.
That this bank may continue
through it's second decade, as it has
through it's first, a pillar of strength
upon which the business men of La
noble county with all their varied in
dustries and enterprises may contin
ue to rest, with fullest assurance that
they are not leaning uphn a weak or
unreliable support, is, we are sure, the
universal sentiment of our people,
NeaUs and Citizen.

| From a speech by Charles A. Prouty OF
Newport, at the meeting of the Brooklyn
Vermonters' Society,"
If had been asked to speak upon
this subject two months ago, the ques-
| ton would have been "Shall we take
the Philippines" That is no longer a
doubt. 1t never could have been, to d
thinking man, the subject Of a serious
| doubt. The United States entered
upon righteous war. By the most
brilliant event Of the war it came into
possession Of the Philippine ISLANDS.
We, as Vermonters, can certainly not
repudiaUe the victory of Dewey, nor
as Americans can we refuse to under
take the responsibilities which it en-
tailed upon US. Humanity forbids
alike that those islands should be re-
mitted to the tyranny of Spain or left
a prey to internal discussions and the
rapacity Of foreign powers.
There still remains the more en-
barassing question what to do with
them. It is said by some people that
States this nation has no power to
take and govern them. This question
may trouble some acute constitutional
lawyers, but it will hardly trou BILE the
people as whole. Thomas Jeffers on
said over his own signature that the
United States had no power, without
an amendment to the constitution, to
make the Louisiana purchase, but he
himself bought it and paid for it and
we have managed to hold it ever
since.
Another class declare that we have
no moral right to govern the Philip
pines for the reason that the right of
government springs in all cases from
the consent of the governed, and that
the future Of the Philippine islands
must be determined by the wish of
the inha of those islands them
selves. But does this necessarily fol-
low? Some races are incapable of self
government, and to such races indie
pendence is a curse. Touissant Lou
venture ranks among the disinterested
patrons of the world, but it may be
doubted whether the freedom which
he secured has not injured rather than
blessed those who possess it. If these
people are incapable of self govern
ment. is it not the clear duty of the
United Stotes to assume that function
which they cannot discharge and to
which we have properly succeeded?
to perform a national duty is not,
however, Imperialism. but American
ism.
Still others insist that we ought to
take and rule the Philippines, wheth
er or no. They are ours, say these
people, by right of conquest and by
