THE DEFICIT GROWS.

Secretary Shaw's annual report,
which goes direct to Congress, shows
deficit Of twenty five million dollars
and an estimated deficit for next
year OF thirty million dollars. Only
short time ago Republicans were
boasting Of the enormous surplus
and the immense gold reserve, which
was no trouble for them to main.
tain They pointed out that Ceve-
land had to issue bonds to maintain
his gold reserve. They do not now
explain how they will maintain it,
but after 50 vigorous protest
against Cleveland surely they will
not consent that bonds be Issued
As disseminators of n surplus the Re.
republican party hasn't its equal on
earth. They can get rid OF it easier,
with less connection than any
body else and the biz ger the surplus
the better it pleases them.
Republican conduct of aff airs has
evolved policies creating enormous
expenditures. The immense revenues
OF the country are pledged before
raised and not only a deficit OF
$25, 100000 occurs this year but
it is promised to continue and grow
bigger. The situation is 80 serious
that Republican leaders in congress
have called halt and are now talk
ing OF retrenchment in appropria'
tions. By rigid economy in the
matter OF all new appropriations the
deficit may be kept down to the
enormous amounts quoted by Secre
tary Shaw above, but how are they
to be wiped out and the balances
put on the other side Of the ledger?
The member who goes to Washing
ton depending upon a substantial
appropriation for his district to
reflect him, will be up against
mighty cold proposition Retrench.
ment in public expenditures is un
known Ia the lexicon Of republican
party, and the country is facing 9
very serious financial crisis. Let ut
wait and see.

American Embassy at Paris Working
Against q Bill Aimed at American
Insurance Companies.

Paris, Dec. 13.-The American en-
bassy is making urgent representa-
tons to the foreign Office in behalf
of American insurance companies and
against the features of the insurance
revision law passed by the chamber
of deputies and about to pass the SEN
ate. The measure contemplates that
the companies shall hold French Sc
curities of a value equal to their out
standing insurance. Heretofore the
law has permitted the holding OF
American or other foreign securities
It Is claimed that If the new pro-
vision Is given retroactive effect COW
ering all outstanding insurance 1t will
compel the American companies to
substitute $4,000, 900 to $4,000 Of
French securities for American invest
ments. The official representations
cover other features of alleged discrim-
nation against foreign companies.

WOULD BE A STRONG FIRM.

Judge Graves left Monday for st.
Louis and is expected home this
evening. The Kansas City Times
says: 1T is reported that Edward &.
Crow, attorney general OF Missouri,
and Waller W. Graves, soon to retire
from the district Judgeship, in
Butler, Mo, have formed partner
ship and will begin the practice OF
law in st. Louis soon after the first
of the year"
If this is true it will make as strong
a law firm as the state affords, as
both are distinguished jurists and
have won their spurs in the practice
and on the bench. Judge Graves
has not announced his plans to his
friends here, and we can not vouch
for the above. II it Is true the bar in
this section OF the state will lose one
OF it's strongest members, and this
section one OF it's most distinguished
citizens. Judge Graves many true
and loyal friends would regret his
loss, but confidently expect a grand
future for him in the broader fields
of operation.

A PIPE DREAM.

Jefferson City, Mo-, Dec. 7.-Itnow
seems assured that Jacob Allen,
editor Of The BUTLER TINES, will be
made adiutant general by Gov. Folk
to succeed Gen. Cameron. Mr.. Allen
Is backed by Judge WallerW Graves,
upon whom Mr. Folk largely relied
to extricate himself from the en-
bsrrassing predicament in which he
was placed by Senator Stone, who
said that Folk had sought secretly
to make an alliance with Sam Cook,
while publicly denouncing him. This
appointment is understood to be the
price be Is paying for the immunity
afforded him Special dispatch to
The Globe Democrat.
The above is remarkable, In the
fact that there was not the shadow
OF foundation for the statements con.
tanned therein. MIR. Allen had not
made application for that or any
other Office. Judge Graves had not
nor would be make q demand on
Gov. Folk based on services rendered
In the campaign. Governor-elect
Folk did not have to pay for i'm.
r,unity Of any kind during bis cam
paign. The whole thing was "pipe
dream" Of the reporter.

Washington, Dec. l3.-Postmaster
General Wynne has removed from Of
fee Frank H. Cunningham, the South
Omaha. Neb., rural carrier. who is
president of the National Association
of Rural Carriers, and James c. KEEL
lar, OF Cleveland. o.. who is at the
head of the National Association Of
Letter Carriers. The dismissal is the
result of an investigation Of charges
of INSTRUMENTATION. OF being absent
from duty without leave and violation
of the presidents order of January 81,
1872, prohibiting individuals or organ
lied attempts of government employees
to influence legislation or to solicit in
crease of pay.
Mr.. CUNNINGHAM applied to the post
master last October for leave Of alb
sence which the postmaster forwarded
to Washington. The post Office de-
partment declined TO approve the ap-
plication and so instructed the post
master. Mr.. Cunningham. however,
ignored this action and came east
From that time, IL Is announced at the
post Office department he apparently
devoted his entire time TO efforts to
secure pledges from candidates for
election or reelection to congress to
support the bill approved by the car
riers for an increase Of their pay. His
methods, it Is chareed. were in distinct
violation of the executive order, which
expressly forbids "all government off,
GERS and employees. either directly or
indirectly, individually or through as
sociations, to solicit an increase Of
pay or to influence or attempt to in
6uence in their own interest any other
legislation whatever, either before
congress or its committees or in any
way save through the headquarters
in or under which they are serving.
on penalty of dismissal from the gov
eminent service"
The association sent out circular let
tiers to congress in an effort to secure
pledges. These letters, 1t is stated
were signed by Secretary Tuber, of the
association. who is also rural carrier
at Rochport, N. Y, and his case is
under investigation.
Mr.. Cunningham submitted his res
icnation Monday, but the department
declined to accept it,
The case of James C. Keller, of the
Cleveland, o., post office, who is head
of the National Association of Letter
Carriers, has also reached a climax.
His activity during the campaign has
been under investigation and some
days ago he was ordered to return
forthwith to his duties at Cleveland
He sent reply TO the post office
which was interpreted as insubordina-
ton, and he also was dismissed.

The spacious auditorium was filled
with the beanty and fashion OF the
country side, who were extravagant OF
q oplause, thus testifying of their per-
feet appreciatinn of the fine musical
treat afforded them.
The harmonious Duets, songs, solos,
and accomplishments OF the charming
yiOlinlst, who handled the bow With
much grace. filed the evening with
much enjoyment. At the close of the
concert, the building had just been
vacated, when a shower of rain set In.
filling the bellies with dismay, as some
of them were gowned in exquisite crea-
tions of silk, lace and null.
There was wild rush for seats in
side, while great, good humor, ruled
the hour. The beaux we're josliMg for
places in which to hold a pleasant
"tete tete' over their delicious ices.
The ladies who so cheerfully, and
gladly devoted their time and talent
were-Misses Hoghshead. of Middle

dean, and Miss Gardner, OF Pennsyl
