State Finances.

Figures were given out last week from
the State auditors Office in regard to the
State deficit for the past two years, plac-
ing it at n,151, 501.79. These figures
supplement the financial statement given
out from the State treasurer's office.
According to the figures given out from
the auditors office the net debt, Jan. l.,
1909, was q ,054 1851 81; net debt, Jan. l..
1910, =, 025, 6s987; net debt, Dec. 81, 1910,
s2,2O6, 46s.6s; deficit for 1903, f970, TT SO;
deficit for 1910, $50, 1881; deficit for two
years, p,151 ,5M.D.
In regard to these figures, it stated by
one in close touch with the administration
that while they are correct so far as they
go, there are some things which should be
taken into account in order to understand
better the actual situation. There are
more unexpended balances to the credit of
the various appropriations than in many
previous years, and in addition the sum of
ss5. 900 is likely to be paid by the counties
sooner or later in connection with the
operation Of the enforcement deputies.
No notice is taken in the figures of the
valuable State assets in the way of per-
manent improvements which have been
created during the two years OF Gov,
Fernald's administration, which include
statehous costing $349, 929, insane hospi-
tai Improvements to the extent of $2OO, 900
and q home for the feeble minded cost
ing about the same sum.

The "Waterville bunch" captured
three of the fattest plums on the
political tree-United States senator,
secretary of state and attorney gen.
eral. The entire, ate of the demo-
cratic machine, controlled from
Waterville, went through. and the
showing made by those who had the
temerity to oppose the machine was
pitiful. Sore spots previously exist
ing in the party we're aggravated, and

control in Maine two years hence.

a subject OF discussion. II there should
be any agreement that struck too hard at
| the agricultural interests OF Maine her
senators, along with other senators from
New England, would make it exceedingly
| difficult to ratify such an instrumen mt.
The manufacturers OF agricultural imple-
ments are urging Canada to make a con-
cession in the duties imposed by the
Dominion government. There is q great
farming region in the northwestern
provinces of the Dominion that has aided
in voicing that demand.
| The parleys in Washington this week
are of some minor interest also to the
Maine fishermen. The hardy fsherfolk
! of Gloucester, Mass, are more concerned,
however, in the efforts to adjust details
incident to the award OF The Hague tri-
bunal last autumn. These details are to he
discussed here this week, as are matters
OF joint rate making and the like that
affect railroads in the United States and
Canada. All these, OF course, have q bear
ing upon the Maine railroads in their
transactions with the Canadian Pacific
and the Grand Trunk, as we'll as great
number OF shippers and receivers oil
freight in Maine.
The visit OF the Canadians at this time
is regarded as of unusual Importance
Efforts are being made to give them q
splendid welcome and to utilize the occa-
sion to the utmost to promote trade pros
poets and good will.
