ment having this work in charge.
In 1902 the main canals and bitches
in the region affected aggregated more
than fifty-nine thousand miles and
the work of reclamation is but in its
infancy. The cost of construction
of the necessary head-gates, dams
main canals, reservoirs and pumping
stations was at that time a little over
ninety-three millions of dollars, which
of itself suggests the hundreds of mil
lions that may be eventually be In
vested in the territory covered by the
statute. The magnitude of the con-
ception, and the enormous expense
its carrying out involves, makes us
realize the overwhelming Importance
of broad, capable and honest admin

that part of the plan that relieves
the country at large from ultimate

REFORM IN GOVERNMENTAL Elk,
PENDITURES.

Twenty-eight years have passed
since the Democratic party of the
State Of New York. in convention as
sembled, recommended to the national
Democracy the nomination of Samuel
j. Tilden as its candidate for the pres
idency, and declared it to be their
settled conviction that a return to the
constitutional principles, frugal eX-
penses and administrative purity Of
the founders Of the republic is the first
and most imperious duty of the times
the commanding issue now before the
people of the Union" This strong
expression was called forth by the
national expenditures for the year 1875,
which amounted to 1874, 100000 sit
uation which, in the opinion Of a ma
jority Of our people, justified an imper-
ative demand for reform in the admin
istration Of public affairs. AS the ex-
penditures of the last fiscal year
amounted to the enormous total OF
1882, ,000,000 1t is evident that a thor

PANAMA CANAL.

An Isthmian canal has long been the
hope of our statesmen, and the avowed
aim of the two great parties, as their
platforms in the past show. The Pan
anna route having been suggested, the
building of the canal should be press
ed to completion with all reasonable
expedition.
The methods by which the executive
acquired the Panama canal route and
rights are scource Of regret to many.
