SECRETARY LONGS FINANCIAL rANcIEg.

Upon reading the speech of Hon. John D. Long,
secretary of the navy. delivered not long since upon
the occasion of the launching Of the battleshp Mis-
souri, is tempted to rejoice that Mr. Long is only
secretary Of the navy and does not control the hnan.
cial policy of the country
But then, the uneasy thought comes up that the
financial policy of the country is controlled by men as
reckless In their financial views as Mr. Long. who. to
take his own striking phrase, actually believe as he
does that the people have their cake and eat It,
too" Here is part OF what Mr. Long has to say;
ing greatest question Of the day to the distribution
OF wealth While few would say that the community should
ne tea Tor the sole purpose OF distributing the proceeds Of
TAXATION yet II some comfort to know that tax when
shall appropriated for the navy by the present
congress small part will for the purchase Of raw ma
labor in every par, Of the Union It case where the
people have their cake and IT, too they can have
e ships and they can have in their pockets the money
This i7 a wonderful paradox that MT Long has dis.
covered. The are taxed the richer we are
Tho mofe the government spends the better on the
people are, because while the government takes the
money Il spends from the people in taxes ii gives it
back to them again in spending tin the case of build
ing aps for The navy 1t is given back mainly in wages
10 labor
The argument is seen ct once to be pure folly when
81 les considered that the wages paid the laborer who
builds the ships are taken in taxes from the aborer
as Ne' aa other citizens who Is not ship builder but
y farm alorar carpenter bricklayer a blacksmith

A. same although is levied Indirectly. why should
