THE DEFICIT DIMINISHING.
Financial Situation Is Satisfactory
and Promising for Future
Prosperity.

The official figures showing the re-
ceipts aud expenditures of the national
government to September were inter
esting and important as indicating the
rapid lessening of the deficit which had
lately existed. The last month has
Witnessed a continuance of satisfac-
tory conditions. Receipts from Gus
toms are notably increasing. This is
due to the swelling volume of imports,
great quantities of which represent
materials in q crude or partially man
ufactured state that are utilized in
American industries, and ultimately
become the finished product, in the
turning out of which American labor
finds employment at American wages.
The fact that these customs receipts
for the month to September 20 were
greater by $3,0OO,OOO than for the same
period in 1904 and about 81 100000
larger than for the first 20 days of
September, 1908, says the Troy IN. "
Times, is telling testimony to the
growing prosperity of American manu-
facturers-and incidentally a refuta-
tion of the free-trade arguments direct
ed against the disastrous effects of a
"prohibitory' tariff.
Internal revenue receipts also have
been greater during September than
for a like period during the last two
years This is proof of the activity in
domestic trade of every variety be-
cause the internal revenue comes from
sources which furnish liberal contribu-
tions to the national treasury only
when business is lively, and the re-
ceipts promptly fall off when there is
any depression. The combined results
of the increase in receipts is that Sep
tember, to the Goth, was able TO eE-
hibit surplus of over S5,O00,000. The
conditions all go to indicate that for
some time to come the income is like
ly TO surpass considerably the outgo,
and the haunting fear of a big and
dangerous deficit, which has frightened
many good and critical souls, should
be effectually allayed. There never has
been any real ground for alarm. 1t
has been pretty evident to well-bdl-
anced minds that when the eXtraordi-
and made necessary by national devel-
opment were disposed of the deficit
would disappear.
Even the critics of republican ma
tional administration are coming TO
see and to admit that the situation is
satisfactory and promising for future
prosperity. The Boston Herald, noting
the exceptionally gratifying reports for
September, says: with a continuance
| of good business conditions apparently
no check need be expected in the near
future, receipts should continue in full
volume and if expenditures are held
down to the standard of last year. and
that appears to be about the scale on
which they are running. the deficit for
the entire fiscal year may be consid-
| erably less than was anticipated at
the opening of July" The republican
administration at Washington favors
a wise but not niggardly policy. and
efficient and progressive management
IS being vindicated by results.

Secretary Wilson, of the department
Of agriculture, says that probably hun
dreds of thousands of dollars worth of
buttermilt is thrown away in this
country every year. He has learned
recently from medical experts that
buttermilk is very valuable in the
treatment of diseases of the kidneys,
such as Bright's disease and diabetes.
and he says if some one would invent
a plan by which it could be condensed
and preserved for medicinal purposes
the inventor would render humanity
an invaluable service.

Japan won by forcing the fight. II

mp so quickly and so savagely that
Russia was defeated on land and sea

war, all things considered beginning

casualties it left over six hundred
thousand victims on the field of bat.

more than one billion dollars. Beyond
question, this frightful loss of life and
property FASTENED the conclusion of
peace; for behind President RoOseyClg

TARIFF NOT SECTIONAL.
Secretary Shaw's Views on Revision
and tke Protection
Principle.

In his address at the opening of the
Virginia republican campaign. at Rich
moud. Secretary Shaw said:
The republican party, in enacting
protective tariff laws, has never sacri-
feed one industry for the sake of build
ing up another, and never will. Neither
will it prejudice one locality in the in
terest of another. 1t will be national
and not provincial. 1t will protect the
south as we'll as the north. the east as
well as the west, and the west as we'll as
the east.
The rate will be too high here and
too low there. but protection will be
found in its every feature The opposi-
tion party never claim that their tar
if measures are perfect. They only
claim that the principle of free trade, on
which they profess TO construct their
tariff laws, is the correct principle.
They claim TO eliminate every element OF
protection from all their tariff laws as
England eliminates protection from her
tariff laws. England provides a tariff
for the sole purpose of revenue, and the
democratic party profess to do the same.
They have openly and repeatedly de-
nOunced protection as a robbery--they
strike ut the principle.
While the republican party never
claimed for any tariff law that it was
perfect, and never promises to enact a
perfect tariff law. il does claim that all
its tariff laws are builded on the prin-
ciple of protection.
"All that the republican party claims
for the Dinglcy law is that it is built on
the right principles and protects all in
terests and all communities. 1t will be
amended in due time. but the principle
ever will be amended under a repub-
llcan administration. Here and there
a rate may be higher than necessary.
Here and there one may be TOO low. but
the principle is correct. and so wisely
have the ditferentals been worked out
that The United States to-day IS more
prosperous than ever in It's history"

Money Is Not All.

The remark of John d. Rock
efeller that money is not all
there is in the world" brings
forth the following pertinent
comment from the Kansas City
Star: Now, don't laugh at
John d. Rockefeller's assertion
that money is not all there is
in Lthe world The sobs that
choked his voice when he said
it, and the tears that CLEANED
in his eyes, may not have been
the expressions of a self-deceiv-
ing piety. For if-there is a map
on earth who has learned from
the bitterness of isolation aud
popular denunciat tion that mon
ey is not all there is in this
world. that man is John d
Rockefeller"
