Tough, Manning, Fairchild and Carlisle.
The law provides that revenue cutters
shall be used exclusively for the public
service and in no way for private pur-
poses. On the occasion referred to
BY Mr.. Good, Mr.. McAdoo did ride on
the revenue cutter, which was under
cruising orders. But every item Of
expense occasioned by his presence and
that of bis wife on the cutter was paid
by him. He was on the cutter he. has
explained. in compliance with bis duty,
the Secretary Of the Treasury being
the head of the revenue service and 30
responsible for its organization and
efficiency. With view to ascertaining
what improvements he could suggest
in the service, be made the cruise.
For this obedience to his duty, the
Iowa Congressman criticised him.
Ignorant as he was Of the facts, Mr..
Good was nevertheless unrestrained in
his censure of the Secretary. What
he said, 10 has been previously sug-
gested, might be passed over as q
vaporing peculiar to bis mind but for

years denied them the opportunity to
borrow money from.national banks on

They will also remember that it was
the democratic party, now being paint
ed. by republican orators as the enemy
of agricultural development, that am
ended the law, so that half billion
dollars will be available for farm loans
as soon as the banking system is per-
