Congressional Appropriations

The Spanish war has taught
us how to be extravagant bey-
ond the widest conceptions of
former days. The total appro-
priations passed by the present
congress, in it's two sessions, ag-
gregated $1,457, ,269, ,457. This
is but 11O, 100000 less than the
appropriations of the preceding
congress which provided for the
expenses of the Spanish war.
Thus the total of appropriations
seems enormous as compared
with the cost of the government
only ten years ago, and yet i'm
portant Legislation has failed to
pass which would have involved
an immense increase, The Mic.
aragua Canal bill and the ship
subsidy bill will both probably
be left unfnished.-Presbyte-
