liquor business were made to bear
the burden of the s7s,S1O, O0Odeficit of

MACVEAGH MAKES HIS REPORT
TELLS coneREss OF STATE OF
THE NATIONS FINANCES.
Secretary Of the Treasury Also Com.
ments on Customs Frauds and
Causes Of Decentralization
Revealed.

Washington, Dec. 7.-Secretary of
the Treasury Franklin Macveagh
has transmitted to congress his an
nual report on the state of the
finances of the nation. The estimates
of expenditures for the executive de.
partments for the fiscal year 1911, he
says. have been made with unusual
care. They total $671,288 .075.21,
which sum is $55,663 ,09119 less than
the appropriations for 1910. In view
of the general growth of the country's
business. this means that large re.
trenchment has been made.
The totals of the detailed estimates
of receipts for the current fiscal year
submitted herewith are $64s, 900. 900,
and for 1911 are $672,O0O,000, leaving
an ordinary deficit for the current
year of 334.075,62012, and for 1911 a
surplus of $4s.775,449.4s. Adding the
payments on account of the Panama
canal and the public debt, the total
deficit of the present year becomes
$73.075,620.12. and for 1911 surplus
of $711,924.79. Since the treasury has
not at present either In the banks or
In Its vaults, materially more than
working balance. says the report, 1t
will become necessary. in order to
meet these deficits. to sell either
bonds or certificates OF indebtedness.
The secretary speaks at some length
of the sugar trust customs frauds and
the resulting work for rehabilitation
of the customs service, especially at
the port of New York. He says:
1.-The study of the causes of the de-
which has been revealed
is still incomplete. but the main causes
are evident. 1t is clear, for instance,
that the influence of local politics and
politicians upon the customs service
has been most deleterious, and has
promoted that <laxity and low tone
which prepare and furnish an inviting
soil for dishonesty and fraud. Unless
the customs service can be released
from>the payment o political debts
and exactions, and from meeting the
supposed exigencies of political organ.
izations, big and little, 1t will be i'm.

any length of time.

Forty years before, as quite boy.
Jones had left little town In Kent.
Now, on the first long vacation he
ever had had since, he was visiting

Pengelley. and he had remembered,
too, that he was a kindly old man.
There wasn't the slightest probability.
he thought, that the postmaster was
still alive. but his acquaintance with
the former incumbent might smooth
things little with the new one, SO
that the whereabouts Of people to
whom be had been directed would be
made known.
What's become of Mr.. Pengelley? ~

GEORGE +. Sheldon.

His many friends were shocked and
grieved to learn of the sudden death
of George F. Sheldon which occurred
Sunday morning, December 5, 1909, a
the residence of his nephew, G. B.
Harris, with whom he made his
home. The deceased had retired al
usual the night before but not arts.
ing in the morning at his accuston
ed hour, and making no response te
repeated calls, the members Of thu
family entered his bed room and dis
covered that he had passed away IL
the night. The cause of his deatl
was mitral stenosis.
George Fenner Sheldon was borr
February 10, 1912, at Aurora, Illinois
He made his home in his native
town until 1880 when he came te
Delaware county to reside with his
sister, Betsy Harris, then a resident
of Prairie township. Mr.. Sheldel
was never married but his attach
ment and family love for his sister
and their children was his predomi
nent characteristic. Their inter
ests were his and their welfare gave
him and loss fromw hich he never
He was especially attached to his
sister, Betsy Harris, with whom he
lived for many years and her deatl
five years ago was a great grief tt
him and al oss from which he nevel
recovered.
The deceased was chrewd bust
ness man. During his active business
life he accumulated abundant mean
to which he added during the year
of his residence here. During tn
asst few years he hadlaid aside bust
ness cares and left the burden o
caring for his large property inter
ssts in the hands ofo theirs as mucl
as possible. "Uncle Jack" as HI
was familiarly called by his acqaint
ances was generous by nature am
genial In temperament. His big hear
and strong mind made HIM popula
with all classes, and his friends deep
ly regret his sudden death. TIL,
members of the family have tn
sympathy of the community in theil
bereavement.
Mr.. Sheldon is survived by two sis
ters, Mrs. Daniel Warner of Rapit
City, South Dakota, and Mrs. Mic

eral service will be held Wednesda,
at 1880 p. m. at the home of hi

public revenues, to the eniclency o

public revenues, to the efficiency Of
the service, and to the public and pri.
vate morality is tremendous amount
to pay in mere liquidation of the small
debts of political leaders.
ut is also clear that the widespread
disposition of returning American trav-
elers to evade the payment of legal
duties has greatly helped to create
the conditions which have become In
tolerable. Those Americans who travel
abroad belong to the sections of the
people which most readily create pub
lie sentiment and are most respon-
sible for 1t; and the fact that in so
many instances these travellers are
willing to defraud the government out
of considerable or even small sums
creates an atmosphere on the docks
that strongly tends to affect the
morale of the entire customs service.
And when to this Is added the FREE
Quent willingness upon the part iof
these responsible citizens to spe-
officially corrupt the governments
men. then the decentralization is fur
ther accentuated."

The Episcopal church in Great
Britain, under ordinary conditions, is
Tory from center to circumference.
But in the present campaign the
church is baking and refusing to
line up with the lords and the liquor
interests.
In this country predatory wealth
and the liquor interests fixed up a
revenue law, which placed the heavy
burdens of government, not upon
wealth, nor upon liquor dealers, but
upon the shoulders of the consuming
masses, and the insurgent republi
cans are baking at the monstrosity.
