Although some protests are heard
against the new uniform accounting
law. which went into effect the first
Of thef year. the new system should
not be condemned in its entirety as
the spirit of the law Is right
While an amendment or two appears
to be necessary, 1t should not be for
gotten that numerous defects in the
keeping of public accounts are reme-
died by It, and that in this the ONO
ials and the people viii benefit TO a
considerable degree. So far as the
Telegram has observed there are not
as many complaints against the book
keeping methods employed as there
are protests against a few certain pro-
visions Of the law which the book
keeping system Is compelled to fol-
low. Upon this subject the Wheel
ing Intelligencer observes:
The critics complain that the new
law is confusing; that the forms can
not be used, and that great deal of
worthless red tape is being imposed.
To the man who keeps his accounts
in his head, or notes them down on
an old piece of brown paper: the first
set Of books doubtless looks like
useless red tape, and a bookkeeper
extravagant folly. So to large ex-
tent are the objections to the uni
form accounting law.
The system of accounts provided
for .under the law IS not especially
complicated and not difficult for any
intelligent man to grasp. The sys-
tenn may not be better than is now
in use. 10 some counties. Officials Of
Ohio county, for instance, state that
the changes so far as the sherlf's
Office are concerned, are slight and
unimportant. On the other hand, IN
other offices and in other counties
the new system provides distinct
improvement over previous methods.
Most important OF all, however, is
the uniformity which it establishes,
and the supervision that 1T gives n
the tax commissioners office over all
records of receipts and expenditures
in which the public is Interested.
There are counties in West Virginia
whose justices have not made a
sufficient return of fines and fees for
years; other gross Irregularities have
been the rule. The uniform account.
ing law aims to reach these abuse.
in a direct and effective manner. AT
the very beginning there is certain
to be great deal of friction and diff
ficulty in applying the law, but these
win be gradually diminished. while
the benefits viii become more and
more apparent"

The Cost Of .The NLailed Fist.


That Germany is paying the pipe,
for her vast ornaments on land and
sea is strikingly shown in a paper in
the January Atlantic by William C.
Dreher.
Since 1887 there has been only
one year in which the national debt
has not been increased. 1t now
amounts, according to recent Official
statements, to $l,013. 100000, or 4
little more than the French indem.
nifty. The debt has been doubled
since 1895. For the past eight
years, Government publications again
admit, expenditures have exceeded re.
ceipts by $471, 900. 900, or an aver.
age of $50, 100000 a year. The
national debt has already cost the
country in interest and administra.
tive expenses about $3.50, OOO, 900;
and yet Germany could have kept out
of debt altogether, as Prof. Schan7
has recently shown. II the revenues
had only been increased by about
$12;OOO,O 900 yearly.
That country with so much in
telligence, character, and efficiency
as Germany undoubtedly has. should
go on piling up It's national debt like
this IN time of profound peace. is
certainly most astonishing phenom-
enon; and some explanation of it
seems called for. II we ask a bank
rupt why he failed, we shall most
likely learn that his income was not
big enough; if We ask his friends,
they will probably tell us that no
spent his money extravagantly. In
the ease of Germany both explana-
tons would apply-the Empire has
never had adequate and steady
sources of revenue: and its expendi-
lures; niggardly enough in many or
binary items. have been lavish in the
extreme with the army and navy.
