Appropriations and Revenues.

ver.-Appropriations made by
the Eighteenth General Assembly and
approved by the governor, leaving
aside those that were to be drawn
from the internal improvement fund,
amounted to S3,S90,210.35. The state
treasurer's figures show the estimated
revenue for the biennial period as s2.-
0,216.65, or practically S1,O0O,000 un-
der the appropriations. State Auditor
Leddy published a statement on July
| placing the total revenue from all
sources at s4,4O6O00, which if cor.
rect would meet every appropriation
made and also the appropriations for
roads and bridges. Mr.. Leddy esti-
mated the revenue from the different
tax levies at $3,l73,000 and the rev
enues from corporation and other
fees, inheritance taxes, license fees
and the like at s1,293,OOO. The rev.
enues for the last six months have
shown a falling off compared with
what they were two years ago, and
there is no sign of a revival.

which remained on the track. When
the crash came they piled out in their
pajamas, and several of them were
bleeding from cuts about the feet
caused by racing over the wreckage.

Several specimens of grains have
been brought In during the last week
or so, OF the better fields. The long,

this seemed to be well filling and looked
good. Other specimens were shorter
but looked good. Flax is thought to
be the best crop at this time. The
rain we had last Saturday has inn
proved all fields near so per cent.
There still seems to be a general lack
OF moisture though owing to the lack
of moisture in the sub-soil. Some more
rain at this time could easily be worth
an inestimabIe amount. The potatoes
are showing up better than expected.

1t was about ten years ago or
thereabouts, that the first attempt to
equalize the harness horses was made
by the late William b. Fasig as
smart a man as ever stepped on the
racing track.
Fasig gave the plan up as a fiat
failure and almost wept when all his
plans went awry.
