There are always outcries against
the large appropriations made by the
government, but there is little cause
for them. It must be remembered that
the needs Of the nation grow with it's
increased population and business.
Our people are no longer satisfied
with the simple arrangements of one
hundred years ago, but they want the
best and all there is to be had. They
want irrigation, two cent postage,
crop reports, river Improvements,
imposing public buildings, free seeds.
maps, public documents, expositions,
forest reserves, pensions, trust inves-
free rural delivery, and
many other good things, to say
nothing OF a navy that shall.be able
to cope with anything aaoat. All
these things cost vast sums of money
and if we have them we must expect to
pay for them. There is no sense in
whining over the bills.
