On account of the heavy expenses
entailed upon the country by the
war of conquest, congress, it is now
stated, will, during the present Ses-
sion, not make a single appropria-
ton for internal Improvements.
There are some people so unreasou-
able as to insist that it would be
preferable to have the taxes that
are collected from our people ex-
pended at home. They are Of the
old school and fail to appreciate the
policy of expansion and Imperialism.
1t is plain enough that as long as
our army expenses run at the rate
of half million a day we can have
no money for internal improve
ments. Expansion, imperialism
and internal improvements do not
