China Supplies Russia with Food for Army
Japanese journals express discon-
tent, says a Times dispatch from
Toxic, at China's failure to enforce
or attempt to enforce neutrality on
the Liao river, whcrc tie whole dis
trlct has been allowed to become a
source for supplying Russia with
loodsCuifs, transport animals and
vehicles.
The papers declare that Japan
seeks no favor and asks only fair
play, and that China's conduct is
craven an@ un8rateful, considering
that Japan is defending her integ-
rity.

GOVERNMENT EXPENSES.

The report Of the Democratic mem
Der Of the House Appropriations Com
mittee, Mr.. Livingston, of Georgia,
stultitied it's author and his colleagues
indorsing, in declaring that the body
Of which he is member was "a Con-
gress that has done nothing but spend
money" 1t would be impossible to
hold a session without spending money,
says the st. Louis "Globe Democrat, !"
as Congress must provide for the ex-
penses of government, which naturally
increase with the growth of the coun-
try. TO attempt a comparison of the
annual expenditures now with what
they were under the last Cleveland adj
ministration would be absurd, because
Of the changed condition of govern
mental affairs growing out of the
Spanish-American war, whose results
are seen in the steadily increasing
prosperity Of the country. During the
last Cleveland administration the total
revenues of the United States and Ter
ritories averaged about S340, 000, 900, or
an aggregate for the term Of 81, 352,-
100000, while the expenditures aver
aged about 1864, O00, 900, or an aggregate
for the term of 81, ASS, 900, 900. 1t will
be observed that during that period of
Democratic administration the expen-
ditures exceeded the revenues about
$25,000,000 year. When the McKin-
ley administration began the business
the country took on a new lease Of life
and the revenues Of the government
increased at rapid pace, averaging
during his term $458, 000,000 year or
an aggregate OF about 81, 1886, 900, 600
The expenditures during the same
term, greatly increased by the war
with Spain, aggregated 81, 901, 900, 000
or an average Of s475, 1000, 900 year
For the three years of the Roosevelt
administration the aggreg ate revenues
have been about 81 100 1000, 900, an aver
age of 1927 700, 900 a year; the expendi-
lures have been in the aggregate 81
4e0, 100000, an average Of 1896, 200, 600.
The increases in revenue and expendi-
lures have kept well together, and the
latter were justified by the wonderful
expansion in the business aud popula-
tion Of the government. There has
beena good cause for the expenditure
Of every dollar, and the appropriations
made by the recent Congress were kept

Of the administration. But this Con-

OUR FOREIGN TRADE.


NbOEAOs
Presidential year has come. and the
extreme partisans are again busily en-
deavoring, as in 1902, to persuade
Americans that our country Is going
behind, that we are losing ground and
that by the free surrender of our mar
kets, the best in the world. we shall
somehow gain at least the beginnings
of an export trade which so far we
have failed to obtain.
No figures, no specific statements
ever accompany these statements, for
of all easy tasks the easiest is to CON
vince any man that he has grievance
that the government should somehow
remedy. Now, what are the facts?
In 1892 these same resident allies of
foreign steamship lines and foreign
commission houses succeeded in the
elections. They broke down the tariff
and under Mr.. Cleveland established
the Wilson tariff. In 1892, the last year
Of Republican supremacy, our exports

fifteen thousand bills were introduced
in the House and more than six thous-

EDITORIAL
DEMOCRATIC HOPES.

-
There is no disputing the fact thai
not a well-informed Democrat in The
United States expects his party tc
elect President in 1904. Prominent
men of the party say that all they car
hope to do this year is to work fol
1908, and Bryan and many Of his fol
lowers do not desire victory as ii
would be a reflection upon them. This
is the explanation given by Bryan's
Democratic enemies Of his attack on
the Cleveland aspirant for the nomin-
alton. 1t is natural assumption, Of
course. Bryan went to Chicago in
cold blood. He hired hall with his
own money, he introduced himself
and he ran the whole affair. A large
number of invitations were issued by
him to educators, editors, business
men and other conspicuous citizens OF
the city. He meant to give his meet
ing as much prominence as possible,
and he succeeded. At the outset in
his address he pointed out that the
affair was unusual, but he justified
himself by the gravity of the situation
for the Democratic party. He has a
newspaper, in which he could have
printed this attack on Parker, Hill,
Cleveland and the things for which
they stand, but he thought that by
hiring a hall in large city and deliy-
ering this Indictment orally it would
have more effect. Undoubtedly he
was correct in this feeling. While an
expression of this sort in the Common
er would be seen by only few persons,
and would attract very little atten-
tion, his demonstration in Chicago
was published in all the daily papers
Of the country, and vas read by mill
ions of people.
Nevertheless, the Republican party
will not be lulled into any undue sense
of security by the dependency OF it's
enemies. The Bryan bolt, If it takes
place, will not cause any relaxation on
the part of the Republican managers
to get out heavy vote on election
day. They will act on the presump-
tion throughout the canvass that the
contest is going to be close, and they
will see to it that their side of the
situation is presented to the voters of
the country. An active canvass will
be made by them. They have The
issues and they will have the ticket
which will appeal to the support Of
men of education and character, and
these will be utilized to the fullest
possible extent for the benefit of the
party Whether the Democrats ex-
pect to win in 1908 or not, they are
sure to be beaten badly in 1904. All
the indications are against them. Not
the slightest apprehension as to the re-
suit is felt in business circles aany-
where II there were any symptoms
OF a Democratic victory, enterprise
4ssessla halt and general cessation of
industry would take place. Nothing
of this sort is visible. Nothing Of this
sort is expected by anybody Still,
the Republicans will act as if there
were a chance that the Democrats
would make strong canvass. The
Republican party will deal with the
issues Of 1904 in 1904, and will attend
to the situation of 1908 when that
year comes to hand.

This movement though, is by nc means church movement, many who make no pretense of being church members, or even church people, are among those who were first to sign the petitions and to do all in their power to help them along
 It is likely, however, that the action of the council in the matter has been productive of more good than had they complied with the prayers of the petitioners. A great many people who never for moment entertained thoughts of local option in this township are now beginning to consider the proposition and there is but very little question but that if such an election is called 1t will pass by a big majority. It is proposed this evening to bring up this matter at the union mass meeting. This meeting will be addressed by a number of citizens az well as by the ministers.

A TIMELY SERMON.
Rev. Drew Spoke Yesterday Morning on the Recent Action of the Council.

Rev. Drew yesterday morning at the Congrega tional church gave to his con- gregation what he called practical talk, rot a prepared sermon. He said that early in the week he had prepared his usual Sunday sermon, but events of the week had caused him to change his plans and he decided to talk on the Duties O. Christians"
 After stating that there would be a union meeting at the NJ. E. church scuth last evening fer the purpose of discussing ways and means of con- tinuing the fight for. the suppression of gambling and its kindred vices, he continued: At the regular council meeting last Thursday evening a pe- tition wss presented to the council asking for an ordinance fer the sup pression of gambling. This petition was turned down by the council, or rather by four of them. In this mat ter the city council acted in direct op- position to the wishes Of the people. This petition had been prepared by some of the most prominent people of this town and had been signed by practically all of them, but still when it was presented the council failed to act in accordance with the wishes cf the people who had elected them.
 But, nevertheless, we are not dis couraged and have no thought of giv- ing up the fight. Tn fact. we intend to win if we have to fight it out on this line all summer. It is probably true

TEE WAR LOANS.

Japan has just obtained in New York and London a loan of s500000G0 It is to bear interest at per cent. secured by first charge on the customs and will be taken by a syndicate of bankers at 93.5. Russia is preparing to bor- row s100.000000. This loan Will be for five years, at per cent. and will pro3- ably he taken in France and Germany.
 The public debt of the Russian em- pire on January 1. 1903. was S5.414OeI.- O00. which gives her third place among the indebted nations of the world. France having tire first and the United Kingdom the second place. The es- timated ordinary revenues Of Russia for 1904 Creckoning the rouble at go centsI are S991 .O4. GOO and expeditures SeS3.229.OOO. The national debt of Ja- pan at the first of this year was 55s.@ 621O11 ven. or s279 S1O O00. The size of the ordinary annual budget of Ja . pan may be estimated from the figures of 1901. when the revenues were S12L- 433.725. and expenditures s119.934. S23. A comparison of these figures indicates that relatively Japan is in d better ;i- rancial condition than her huge rival. but the possible resources of the two nations must be taken into considera- tion before any conclusion can i.= reached in this comparison. Japan $ by nature q very poor country, while Russia is rated as one of the wealthiest. This becoming apparent when we ex- anime the statistics of their trade and commerce. In 1902 the imports of Ja- pan were valued at $135. IF, ,OS3; Of Russia at $305.614.11O: and the exports of Japan at $127,326,15S and of Russia at s392.214.9SS.
 Other things equal. it will therefora be seen tEat the czar's government is more capable than the mikados of pay ing back loans and of withstandinG a protracted war. A realization of this advantage in the enemy is possibly one of the reasons which are urging the Japanese to such heroic acts to bring about speedy conclusion of hostilities Kansas City Journal
