The Cost of Government.

Official figures have just been COM
piled showing the amount of the apprO-
priations of the short session of the
59th congress. The congress ordered
an expenditure of $92O,79S, 1880 in di-
rect appropriations and authorized con-
tracts for public works that will in
crease the amount by 7,934,349, thus
escaping the credit or discredit of be-
ing "a billiOn-dOllar congress" by a
small margin. On the face of the fig
ures, and considering the revenue esti-
mates. this would indicate a deficit of
about $150,00G, 600 for the fiscal year
ending in June, 1908, and some of the
newspapers and orators will be certain
to use the figures to predict such re-
suit. Analysis of the tables. however,
show that while the appropriations call
for an expenditure of the amount nam
ed. much of the money will be returned
through different channels, and all in
dicatiOns are that the fiscal year will
end with the customary surplus.
The largest individual item in the
appropriation was 1912 900, 900 for the
postal service. While this is the only
strictly business enterprise in which
the government is engaged. it is not I
money making one. the demands for
efficient service and the extension of
various branches of it making it usual
ly impossible to operate the depart
ment at a profit. However. the postal
receipts will probably come within S12,
100000 of equaling the expenditures
for the current fiscal year. thus return
ing to the federal treasury about $780,
100000. The S37000,000 carried in the
river and harbor appropriation bill will
be extended over several years and
perhaps not more than S7.000.000 of il
will be withdrawn from the treasury
during the present year
Treasury reports indicate that the
governments surplus of receipts over
expenditures for the fiscal year ending
in June, 1907, will be in excess of $50
000,000-it is now about $4,000, COO
which will be available for meeting the
appropriations made by the last con-
Sress. Customs and revenue receipts
are showing monthly increases. making
almost certain surplus instead of a
deficit at the close of the next fiscal
year.

Spite Workers.

Illinois State Register: The present
session of the Illinois legislature has
been characterized by a long drawn
fight upon Governor Deneen by large
number OF the members. Now that the
session is nearing the close. this con.
test, spiteful on the part of the belig
erent members, and earnest on the part
OF Governor Deneen in behalf of legis
latiOn he has deemed necessary, has
reflected credit upon the executive and
discTedit upon those members wha
nave let spite, politics and personal en-
nifty govern their voices and votes rath.
er than to be guided by what the state
has needed and what the people want.
No, We do not say that Deneen has
been especially earnest in demanding
legislation which the people want, but
some of the measures he has encOur-
aged and which his political foes have
fought. are obviously measures any
public spirited governor would advo-
cate as essential TO prohibit certain out
RACES against justice and decency.
We refer especially to state Chart
ties. Those who neglected the needs
of the state and the demands of the
people in a contemplate fight upon a
political foe, deserve the hearty con-
domination of all good citizens as well
as of their colleagues in the general as
sembly who may have had a right pur-
pose to accomplish something for the
state of Illinois and the people thereof.
All of which proves the necessity for
electing a legislature that is democratic
and right.
