THE FIRING LINE

The net balance in the general fund
OF the United States Treasury at the
close of business September q was
$41 $40, 422. On the same date in 1913,
when Republican revenue laws and ap-
preparations were still in effect, the
balance was $l27,091, ,17S. Since July /,
1915, the administration has spent $37,-
9l4, 719 more than its revenues.
Imports to the value of $29, ,826, 149
entered the 13 principal customs dis
tricts OF the United States for the week
ending September Is, 1915, on which
duties were collected in the sum of 49,
O40, 1868, or an average ad valorem rate
OF duty of 10.11 per cent. compared
with an average annual ad valorem rate
OF duty of l76 in 1913 under the Re-
publican protective tariff law, which
was an efficient revenue producer.
This is the lowest ad valorem rate yet
recorded under the Democratic tariff
law. During the month of August 70
per cent. of our imports entered free of
duty. The free trade provisions of the
present tariff law are boon to the
foreign producers, and retail prices are
not declining.
The National Bank of Commerce of
st. Louis has been compelled to cut its
dividend rate from six to four per cent.
The reason assigned is that there is
small demand for loans and that the
interest rate for these is very low. This
is suggestive. 1t is evident that there
can be no large industrial or business
activity in this banks circle of clients
There is an ocean of idle money in this
country but there is no business to use
it except among the "war trade" enter
prises.

sixteen times too big. The fact is, how
ever, that our submarines are sixteen

A national conference of Progressive
leaders recently held in New York de-
cided to go on with the party. This
decision was partly nullified on the
same day by higher authority-the
Supreme Court of New Jersey, one of
its justices signing an order barring the
Bull Moose from the ticket in the New
Jersey primaries because at the last
general election the party failed to poll
five per cent of the total vote cast and
thus is not party within the eyes of
the law.
Some Democrat in Kentucky is going
to get letter pretty soon. 1t will be
dated at the White House and it will be
signed by Woodrow Wilson. 1t will
tell how much the President desires
the election of Democratic Governor
i'll the bluegrass country, ETC., etc.
In Boston they have it that the
Colonel is going to vote the Republican
ticket next. Stranger things have
happened.
The warning Democratic factions in
Maryland will soon hear their masters
voice fr ON the White House. State
issues, personal ambitions are as
nothing where Mr.. Wilson rules. He
is the whole thing in the Democracy,
and he does not hesitate to let people
know it.
James j. Hill urges that we loan
billion or so to the beligerents of the
Triple Entente. They are buying things
from us, he argues, and if we do not
lend them the money they cannot pay
us for our goods, our exports will fall
off and our crops will decline in value.

Then all this tremendous "war order"

money to pay their bills.
