Twenty eight years have passed since the
Democratic party Of the State of New York,
in convention assembled, recommended to
the national Democracy the nomination Of
Samuel j. Tilden as It's candidate for the
Presidency, and declared it to be 3their
settled conviction that a return to the
constitutional principles, frugal expenses
and administrative purity Of the founders
OF the republic Is the first and most i'm
perious duty OF the times-the commanding
Issue now before the people Of the Union
by the national expenditures for the year
1875, which amounted to $27+, 900, OO0-a
situation which, in the opinion of ma
jority Of our people. justified an imperative
demand for reform in the administration
Of public affairs. As the expenditures Of
the last fiscal year amounted to the enor-
nous total of $3.50 ,O0o, 900. 1t is evident that
a thorough investigation Of the public ser
vice and the immediate abandonment of
useless and extravagant expenditures are
more necessary now than they were then.
This astounding increase is out Of all pro-
portion to the increase OF our population,
and finds no excuse, from whatever aspect
we view the situation. The national Demo-
cratic platform declares that large reduc-
tons can easily be made in the annual ex-
penditures Of the Government without i'm
pairing the efficiency Of any branch Of the
public service" Can there be any doubt Of
the accuracy Of this statement? Between
the expenditures OF the year 1885, amount
ing to S242, 100000, and those OF the last
fiscal year-the seventh after Grover Cleve-
land ceased TO be acknowledgements
$3.50 200, 900, there is a difference so great as
TO excite alarm in the breasts Of all thought
full men. Even excluding the sum of $50
100000 paid for the Panama Canal rights
and to the State Of Panama, the expen-
ditures Of the last fiscal year exceeded the
sum of $500 900, 900. being more than double
the expenditures OF the Government for all
purposes during the first year OF Mr.. Cleve-
lands administration.

NOISE OF A MOVING TRAIN.
Locomotive Engineers Are Not Dis
turbed by the Rattle of Cars
Over the Rails.

The locomotive engineer was talking
about his run. says the pittshurg Dis
patch. He maintained that. with the
roar and rumble Of the engine directly
beneath him and OF the train thunder
ing behind, ne had no trouble in hear
ing what his fireman on the other side
of the cab said to him. and the fireman
could understand and answer. The
noise of the train seems to be some
thing extra, according to him. to which
he has become so accustomed that L.
does not interfere in any way with his
ordinary faculties. 1t appeared, from
his remarks, to be like a dull clatter of
numerous tynewriters in big Office,
which never interferes with speech or
thought ontc a person has become ac-
clstomed to the noise. He asserted
that he knew oI engineers who had
become stone deaf when they we're not
in the cab. and their friends had 10 yell
to them to make themselves under
stood But as soon as the veterans
stepped into the engine snd got the
rattle of the train IN their ears they
could hear the ordinary conversational
voice. despite the thunder of the ma
chinery and the wheels. As soon az
the train stopped they were deaf again
for that interval, only to be right az
sOoH as the pandemonium Of the
wheels shook up their aural openings.
