Economy and Progress.


The campaign OF departmental re-
trenchment laid out by the president
for the coming session Of congress rep /
resents nothing new to his admins
tration. Il Is but a continuation of
the Taft policy adopted at the begin
ming Of his term OF office. He pro-
poses to make q thorough sweep OF the
Job this winter. cutting out every sine
cure and lowering every source Of ex-
pense that will bear reduction and he
expresses the belief that when he is
done he will have saved a large sum
Of money to the government.
Economy and progress has been the
keynote Of the Taft administration.
Get the most and best for the least
amount has been the practice. not the
theory, and as a consequence the var
ious departments of government are
producing larger results upon
smaller financial basis, comparatively,
than they ever have. In every de-
paTtment where it was possible to save
money and go ahead, money has been
saved and the work has gone ahead,
and this has been done so consistently
that in every case the estimates for
appropriations for the current year
are far below those of the two years
Immediately preceding The Treasury
department. which made a saving OF
$1.297,O in 1910, that is for the fis-
cal year ending June 80, 1910, will
cut its expenses down still further by
! $t,73O, 900 in 1911-June 30. 1911.
Similarly the War departments esti-
mated appropriations for the year Of
1911 are s5O,415,0O0 less than in
1903 and Sl2,16O,OOO below those Of
! 1910. II is by now rather generally
| known that the Postoffice department
cut its deficit $1,000, 900 in 1910 and
is cutting 1t much more than that this
year and at the same time charging
| its field and details of useful operation.
Its reorganization of various parts Of
the system, while bringing larger and
better results. has invariably brought
less expense. For example, 81, 800, 900
was saved in the reorganization Of the
rural free delivery without cutting
down the service. The Navy depart
ment's estimates for the current year
are $5,800,000 less than those of the
year preceding. The Interior depart
ment, Of which there has been so much
criticism, has saved S29O,O0O a year
in salaries, and at least $4,000, 900 in
lands recovered. Besides that, it's es-
Inmates for the current year are $780,
$4,000 less than those for 1909 and
$S,5S5,O0O less than 1910. The saw
ings in the Department Of Justice
come in larger services rendered. but
at the same time it is possible to count
some tangible income, such as the re-
covery OF the S3,4S5,SBS in the sugar
fraud cases and $1,1S1 900 in fines
and judgments. The Department OF
Commerce and Labor, which is as YET
new, and therefore only getting started
we'll, is observing this same spirit OF
! economy and progress, but reachins
out into so many new fields of opera
tions as TO necessitate new expenses
When it comes to actual retrench,
ment as compared with results pro.
duced, the Taft administration needs
nothing but its record of the last two
years to offer for it's pledge for tho
next two No administration has mac
better record.
