Aside from the National currency
the 'greenbacks the public debt
is now far below the billion dollar
mark. The decrease of the debt for
the month of September was over
ten million dollars, which is certainly
great rate of reduc ton The cash
balance on hand after all liabilities
are taken care of and the gold re.
serve fund is also taken care of,
amounts to 1871 ,253, 1894, That is to
say, Uncle Sam could pay off more
than third of his debt tomorrow if
it were subject to call 1t is such a
strength in financial affairs as no ma
ton in the world ever exhibited be-
fore. And to think that the same
treasury, in time Of profound peace,
and with no extra calls upon it, was
under Democratic mismanagement
obliged to sell $262, 900, 600 in bonds
to keep its current cash equal to the
daily demand 1t would soon be re
duced to that same state again, too,
if the Democrats could have control
of it,
