Principal Appropriations.

Observation-Disclosures Tawney OF
the House appropriations committee
made the following statement as to
the appropriations for the fiscal year
1907
The total appropriations made al
this session of Congress, including
those carried in the regular appropri-
alton acts, all deficiencies, miscella-
neous matters and permanent annual
appropriations, aggregate $3.50 1884,
301.
This is an apparent increase OF
$50 900 900 over the appropriations
made at the last session of Congress.
This is more than accounted for
in the three following items:
For the Isthmian canal, $42,447,-
O00 under the statehood bill, s10,-
100000: toward the construction of
new buildings authorized at this ses-
sion, $10,321 900. making a total OF
s63 200, to which might be added
properly $5,OOO,OOO for San Francisco.
"Other notable increases are 3d.
100000 for inspection of meat pro-
ducts and s10,600,000 on account Of
the postal service.
THE total apparent appropriations
made at this session, $3.50. SO ,30l, do
not constitute in their entirety a
charge against the revenues of the
government for the next fiscal year,
for the reason that there must be de-
Quoted deficiencies that are charge
able to the service of the current
year and to meet expenditures al
ready incurred on account thereof, ap-
proximating at least $35O00,0 600 This
sum includes $16,OO0,O0O for the 18th
milan canal.
There should be deducted also S57,-
100000 for the sinking fund. which
may or may not be met in whole or
in part, as it is purely matter Of
discretion with the secretary of the
treasury to utilize the surplus for
that purpose.
There should also be deducted
1922 100000, which is estimated and
included in the whole sum of appro-
priations to be paid out of deposits
of national banks in redemption Of
circulating notes Of banks. The de-
posits are not credited as a part of
the revenues of the government, and
therefore redemptions made from the
fund thus arising should not be
charged to expenditures.
1.-The $25,456,415 appropriated for
work on the Isthmian canal is pay
able from or reimbursable to the
treasury out of bonds that are au-
thorized to be sold for that purpose
and should also be deducted from the
appropriations for 1907.
1.-THE sums mentioned amount to
.. more than $139,000,00 and when de-
Quoted leave apparent appropriations
of only s741 100000 to be met out of
the revenues of the next fiscal year.

No Antitrust Laws.

Pueblo, Colo-Judge Dixon has
handed down his decision on motion
to quash the indictment against the
Retail Butchers and Grocers' Associa-
ton of Pueblo. The association is
charged with conspiring to restrain
trade by virtue of its organization. In
his decision Judge Dixon refuses to
sustain the indictment. He says;
Under the law as it now stands such
combinations are not punishable. They
ought to be. but 1t is for the legisla-
ture, and not for the courts to make
them so. This prosecution will not
have been in vain if 1t shall serve to

Another Story About George and the
Little Hatchet.
J. p. BECKWITH,
Traffic Manager.

An ancient tree was recently discov-
cred in Virginia, and Importance is
attached to the find. In addition to
gallons of sweet honey waiting for the
hot cakes, was discovered a Ratchet
containing the letters, &c. W." 1t is
claimed that George Washington sur
veyed this land once upon a time, and
of course the Ratchet found the other
day once upon a time must have be-
longed to George. 1t is probable that
this is the same Ratchet George used
upon the cherry tree-hiding the hat
chet in the tree from his father after
he did the cherry tree act. This
would show that George was up to
snuff, and was not the good boy his
torians would have us believe when
he confessed, 81 did it with my little
Ratchet. "-Apalachicala Times.

Tallahassee, Jan. 16.-The Governor.
Mrs. Broward, Hon. A. c. Groom and
| Capt. B. n. Mathes spent some time
this morning with Architect II. J.
Klutho of Jacksonville studying plans
for the Governors mansion submitted
by Mr.. Klutho. In the plans made by
Mr. klutho the proposed building pre-
sents a very handsome appearance
outwardly. The building represented
is of COrinthian style of architecture.
The front and sides are surrounded by
a broad gallery, supported by massive
Corinthian columns to the height of
the building.
The building will be of wood or con-
crete, as the appropriations is not suf-
ficient for a stone structure, and will
cost approximately $4,000. The plans
include arrangements for a furnace for
heating. numerous baths and all mod
ern cOnveniences.-Times Union.
We are glad to note the above para
graph. By all means Florida should
have an imposing and creditable man
sion for her chief executive officer.
We are glad also to note that Mr..
H. ]. Klutho has been selected as the
architect to prepare the plans for this
building. Other things being equal,

praDce in tbaSa Tpatarc
Mr.. Klutho has the reputation of be-
ing one of the finest architects in the
south. The buildings he has designed

Among others we note the beautiful,

A Congressional Candidate.

AS the time is drawing near for
next years campaign, we think it time
to look into the matter Of finding a
good man for congress.
The present incumbent is not the
man we want for we feel that, since
his tilt with Minority Williams. which
was a very childish caper, he lost his
usefulness. Such a man is dangerous.
As for jeff Stevens. he is merely
side issue and will not cut much Of a
figure in the fight.
Who, then shall we have? would be
the natural question.
In looking around for a candidate
our minds runs to a young man who
has, all his life, devoted his time and
energy to the democrat party of the
state A stancher and more useful
democrat is not to be found. He has
served his state and his people for a
number of years in very important
and responsible position. In filling
his position he has saved his state
thousands of dollars and made him.
self similar number of friends. AS
an officer he is second to none: as a
citizen and friend he has few equals.
If nominated and elected he will
make us one Of the best congressman
Florida has ever had.
We take pleasure in putting the
name of Hon. ]. Walter Kehoe, states
attorney for the first judicial circuit,
before the people of this district as a
candidate for congressional honors,
hoping that the press of this distinct
will assist us in getting Mr.. Kehoe to
make the race.-CalhOun Democrat
