Distress of the Terasury.


The organs of the admistration have
been pointing with pride" to the fiscal
year statement of the government be-
cause it proved that the Dingley tariff
was fetching in great piles of money
and it also proved that the general
revenues would be more than ample to
| meet all the demands of the govern
ment, including the cost of subjugat-
ing the Filipinos. But the Philadel-
phia Record has more regard for the
| truth than most of it's contemporaries
/ and it does not hesitate to say that
the outlay of the government for
military purposes will be largely in
creased within the next few months:
and if the insurgents resistance in the
Philippines should be prolonged, even
the vast resources and incomes of the
government would prove insufficient to
foot the bills without borrowing-that
is, without a new bond issue.''
The Record simply admits what every
observer of the governments revenues
and expenditures has known all the
time. But with all it's honesty. the
Record tries to cover up the 5000, ,0OO,
600 loan of last year: n order to.make
the deficit stand 5000, 900, instead of
S2S8, 900, 600, to say nothing of the yield
of 500, 900, 900 or more from the war
tax. The fact is, the condition of the
treasury is such that it is likely to
have to resort to a bond issue before
the campaign opens in the Philippines
next November. The customs duties
depend altogether on imports of such
luXurieS as are not manufactured in
this country, and they have arrived
in such large quantities the last two
months or so it would seem that the
market is SO we'll supple tn 1t there
would be no more large movements
for several months. If the treasury
department was in anything like good
condition Secretary Gage would not
feel obliged to stick to his desk during
the hot season, when the custom is for
every high official to quit Washington
for Il few weeks, at least. If the worst
comes to the worst the secretary can
issue 500, ,OOO, 900 of treasury notes
and sell 5000, 900 of bonds under
the act of last year, without waiting
for congress to give him authority to
do SO.

The political party that is going to
smash the trusts by legislating them
out of existence had just as we'll leg
islate against sunshine, or the ebb
and flow of the tides. The only way
to smash the. trusts is to beat them at
their own game-create bigger mo-
nOpOly than they are and let it be op-
Grated at cost like the postoffice. In
other words. public ownership will
smash the trusts by absorbing them.

Last week we printed our predict on
as to the makeup of the republican
ticket for this fall, and those who
stand closest to the postoffice corner
say that it was about right. DR..
Pearson informs us that he will not
accept the nomination for coroner. SO
this one pla will likely he left to the
convention. The republican conven-
tion will BE- held on the thirtieth OF
September. unless some change takes
place in the program. Late conyen-
tions will give the republicans a slight
advantage, as the candidates decided
on are already campaigning, feeling
certain OF their nomination.
while the candid ates who
will oppose them, not having been Sc,
lected as YETI can do nothing. The
program is for the republican eandi'
dates to secure as many persona!
pledges as possible. 1t is safe to say,
however. that the voters will be very
slow to promise their support to any
candidates until they find out who is
likely to be pitted against them.

How can any sensible man imagine
for a moment that the republican
party has any enmity to trusts, when
he recalls the fact that every one OF

trusts do not know who they can trust
