Uncle Sans Balance ShsGt

The fiscal year of the United States
Government ended June 80. and the fig
ures on the balance sheet are very
pleasant reading for the American citi-
zens. From a bulletin issued by the
treasury department it is learned that
the treasury surplus for the year is
even larger than was expected. 1t
stands at ISL. 229.T77. or considerably
more than double the estimate made by
the secretary of the treasury last fall.
June's surplus was $17 .S95, 159, which in
dicates that one of the first acts Of
Congress at the next session will be to
reduce the war taxes, as prom
month the public debt decreased $l4-
SS7, 553. Government expenditures in
the fiscal year of 1900 We're less than in
1899 BY $l1s.313.00S. Army and navy
expenses We're less by s10l 900 coo than
in the preceding year In the last fiscal
year receipts from customs increased IA
per cent, from internal revenue 8 per
cent and from miscellaneous sources
per cent. In spite of an army of 1oo,-
ing from the West Indies to the
Philippines the government comes out
of the fiscal year with a cash surplus Of
over $S1, 600, 900
Figures of the foreign commerce of
the United States for the full fiscal
year are not yet made UP, but enough
is known to insure that they go far
beyond any previous record. our for
eign trade for eleven months was 81
o'5, 10G35o, of which $.SS.SS0,I22 was in
imports and $l,2S6, 225, sos in exports.
The indicated total for the whole year
is 81 400. 0oo. 900 of exports. and
$500 100000 imports, an increase
Of Is per cent. and the largest gain in
Gold exports ana imports balance each
other for the year, while the exports of
silver exceeded the imports by over
$50, 100000. The balance of trade in
our favor for eleven months was $491,-

1t is worthy Of note that the attitude
of the press of Europe toward this gov
eminent as regards the crisis in China
is one Of great respect. The change
brought about in a few years is most
significant. The comment as to the
American course thus far is very fay
orahle. and the whole tone of the
European opinion of the manner in
which the United States has met its
responsibilities in the. far East shows
that we have the confidence and re-
spect of the powers of Europe They
know that the United States has no
selfish purpose to- serve but that it will
do its utmost to protect American citi-
zens and interests, and that it must be-
reckoned with in whatever is done in
the East. Expansion has given the
United States new dignity and power
which the nations of Europe are quick
to appreciate.
