NO noRE OVERLOOKING

At the beginning Of the present ifs
cal year the national debt amounted
to SS4T, So, 40. This was the first Of
last July; since then the public debt
has grown to 81, 152, 624, $50, an increase
OF S3O5, %, $50 during the past six
months. This is the interest bearing
debt only, besides which there is a
debt Of 1885, 410,245, which bears no
interest. There is no prospect for a
decrease-Quite the contrary. With
the bills already passed by congress
and those pending which are sure Of
passage, appropriations far in excess of
the approximate revenues viii be
made, while the current expenses Of
the government exceed the revenues
By many millions
The secretary Of the treasury, in his
annual report, estimated a deficit of
S112 600 for the present fiscal year.
If he can keep inside Of that estimate

the administration does not Justify

The beautiful young &hing received
the dollar back from the conductor
and looked at it with very great dis

"Oh, how shocking!" said he. "How
cruel! should so deadly love to have
the wretch who gave it to me by the

b-a-a-ad. The swagger-loOEing girl
gazed at him and appeared to be say

Fares, please" said the conductor,
impatiently.
But, cOnductah, that is all the mon

The beautiful young thing looked
appealingly at the thoroughbred-look-

and Inundated.

stood on the running board waiting
for fares. The conductor pulled the

SAID OF KANSAS.


Of our Lord 1900, there will be two
million people in Kansas, with cities
like Providence and WOrcester-peT-
/ haps like Chicago and Cincinnati. She
will have more miles Of railroad than
Maryland, Virginia and both the Caro-
Iinas can now boast. Her land will be
worth twenty dollars an acre, and her
total wealth will be five hundred mil
lions Of money. Six hundred thousand
children will learn in her schools.
What schools, newspapers, libraries,
meeting hOUsesI Yes, what families Of
educated, happy and religious men and
wOmenl There will be a song of Free
dom all around the slave states, and in
them slavery itself will die.
Gen. Grant 1850: I like Kansas;
I like the Kansas people; they implant-
ed in our soil the principle of universal
liberty.
President Hays (1S7O): Kansas is the
best advertised state in the union, aud
you come up to your advertisement.
General Sherman 1ST9): 1 do not
know what mystery has brought about
the rapid development of Kansas, ex-
cept the mystery of education and in
dustry.
Henry Ward Beecher (1ST9): There
Is no monument under the heavens on
which I would rather have my name
inscribed than on this goodly state of
Kansas.
James G. Blaine 1882: From the
beginning of the settlement of the
United States there is none, since the
days of colonial adventure, that has
about it the romance of history as does
the state of Kansas.
Prof. Agassiz 1868): All Brazil was
nothing to what I have seen of natural
beauty and scientific revelation in
Kansas.
Horace Greeley C1858): I like Kan
sas-that is natural Kansas-better
than I expected. The soil is richer
and deeper, the timber is more gener-
ally difFused, the country more rolling
than had supposed them.
Charles Sumner in the United States
senate in 1856: Take down your map,
sir, and you will find that the territory
Of Kansas, more than any other region
occupies, the middle spot of North
America, equally distant from the At
lantic on the east and the Pacific on
the west; from the frozen Hudson bay
on the north and the tepid gulf stream
on the south; constituting the precise
territorial center of the whole vast con-
tinent. To such advantage of situation
on the very highway between two
oceans, are added a soil of unsurpassed
beauty of surface, with health giving
climate, calculated to nurture a power
full and generous people, worthy to be
a central pivot of American institu-
tons.
William II. Seward (1S6O): In the
future, men will go up to Kansas as
they go up to Jerusalem.
Horace Greeley (1S7O): predict that
the child is born who will see Kansas
fifth, if not fourth, in population and
production among the states Of the
union.
