The Cost of EN- pir.e.
(From the Philadelphia Public Ledger

From the Philadelphia Public LEDGER
Representatives of the majority and of
the minority of the committee on approp-
riations are enjoying the controversy
over the next years budget which is GUS
tomary at the close of a session. They
agree upon the aggregate of the approp-
riations made, but not upon the probable
revenues tomeot them, and they naturally
disagree as to whether or not the approp-
riations are extravagant. Without at
tempting to decide either question, it
may at least be said that the United
States has risen t. figures that, few
years ago, would have been regarded as
impossible
1t is not very long since a Congress
that appropriated billion dollars in two
years caused an alarmed cutlery though
out the country. The Congress which
has just adjourned appropriated more
than a billion and half without a ripple
of excitement, and was even criticised as
parsimonious. Ideas of what constitutes
extravaganza are only relative, and
change with the changing conditions
1t is somewhat important, however, to
recognize the causes of the increase and
also to know whether the revenues in
crease correspondingly Admittedly they
do not though Mr.. Hemenway cheerfully
minimizes the probable deficit, which
Mr.. Livingstone, of the.minority, reckons
at $92, GOO. 600 The total appropriations
for the year ending with June 1906, are
$S1S,479,914.
In four years ending with 1896, the
whole appropriations footed up $2,0l6,-
343, 154: for the four years ending with
1906 they amount to 81, 158, 1874 ,292, an
increase of more than Onehalf in ten years.
About one half of. this increase is in
military expenses for the army, and
navy, and Notifications. The approp-
riations for these objects in the period
from 1898 to 1896 were $205, 900, 000 for
1903 to 1906 they are S70S, 100000. If
we are going in for imperial expansion
we must expect to pay the cost. As it is
not expected that the new Congress will
do much to reduce expenses, will have
the problem of providing new sources OF
revenue. Then the trouble will begin.
