Have not the American people rea-
son for satisfaction and pride in the
conduct of their government since the
election of 1900, when they rendered
their judgment of approval upon the
first administration of President Nc
Kinley? Have we not had an honest
government? Have not the men Sc

given evidence that they were honest

Have we not had an effective gov

-Four years ago the business of the
country was loaded with burdensome
internal taxes, imposed during the war
with Spain. BY the acts of March 2,
1901, and April IL, 1902, the country
has been wholly relieved of that an
nual burden of over S100,000,O00; and
the further accumulation of surplus
which was constantly withdrawing the
money Of the country from circulation
has been prevented by the reduction
of taxation.
Between June 80, 1900, and June,
1904, our treasury department collect
ed in revenue the enormous sum of
s., 203, 100000 an depended $2,02S,OOO,-
900, leaving us with surplus of over
$40 100000 after paying the $50,0O0,-
900 for the Panama canal and loaning
81 500 900 to the st. Louis exposition.
Excluding those two extraordinary
payments, which are investments from
past surplus and not expenditures OF
current income, the surplus for this
year will be the reasonable amount OF
about S12,000,000.
